Bob-omb

• "Me? Well... I'm Bob-omb."
• "You know that memory-loss thing? What's it called... Ambrosia? Amnesty? Thinky Thinky Panic? Whatever you call it, I've got it—big time."
• "My name is not Bombert. I am Bob-omb!"'
• "Oh wait. I don't have arms."
• "Heh. Right. I'm sure you'd stay TOTALLY on-task in there, ma'am. 'No distractions,' she says..."
• "I guess we have to check out Shogun Studios after all, huh?"
• "Yeah...she's not even thinking about the streamer anymore."
• "This is what every Bob-omb hopes for—a chance to change something for the better. To make an impact."

Bowser

• "Nobody makes Bowser walk with his face!"
• "My minions! You monsters... I won't forget this. I'm gonna unfold my body and fold YOURS into pretzels!"

• "She can't see me like this..."
• "I know what you're going to do to my minion, so CUT IT OUT!!!"
• "Do you know who I am!?"
• "Bahaha! You heard him. It was luck! So let's cut the pity party and bust into that castle already!"

• "GUH! HRNGH! This guy's tougher than he looks! I might...need some backup..."

• "Nooo! It's like pulling a bandage off halfway!" (After canceling pulling Bowser)

Bowser Jr.

• "Ta-daa! How do I look?"
• "No! Dad's airship!"
• "Aww, man! Dad's not gonna be happy about the airship. His insurance premiums are already so high! And where are we, anyway?"
• "Dad! You're OK! I was worried you got folded up even smaller or something. We'll be right there!"

Captain T. Ode

• "Ah, the sea chart. And the Great Sea herself... Yes, everything is coming back to me... In this moment...I am as a bird in a cage. I yearn to sail free at the helm of my Marino, underneath the great cresting waves. I shall require the sea chart, as well as my noble vessel. Make it so!"

Colored Pencils

• "Aw, man! You were almost out of the picture...for good."
• "I'm sick and tired of Philistines like you ERASING all of my hard work, man."
• "You probably haven't heard of me, right? Figures. When was the last time you even went to a gallery?"
• "Pfft. Don't answer. I'm gonna give you an art lesson for free."
• "The name's Jean-Pierre Colored Pencils the 12th. I represent the Legion of the Stationery, I'll have you know!"
• "Anyway, I'm guarding this streamer, and I'll scribble on your flat face if that's what it takes to stop you."
• "Feast your eyes upon my art-senal! Twelve colored pencils, ready to make your paper bodies my canvas!"
• "Locked on targets!"
• "They ALL missed?! No...my missiles are flawless! It's the TARGET that's all wrong!"
• "No! NO! My lid is closed! I can't stop my missiles!"
• "Did you enjoy my BITING critique?"
• "Reload complete! And I have plenty more where these came from!
• "Ugh. Everyone's a critic. I won't let my work be disrespected like this! Time to roll out my masterpiece..."
• "Behold my Rainbow Roll!"
• "Ugh...no way. Defeated by a no-name, no-talent piece of disgusting POP CULTURE! You were better when you were a sidescroller, man..."

Kamek

• "You may have heard of me. I am known as Kamek!"

King Olly

• "Oh, and by the way...I am no longer your brother Olly. I am KING OLLY! By the time I am done, all of those miserable Toads will be folded... reborn as loyal Folded Soldiers--serving me! And I shall fold, crease, and bend the entire paper world to my whim... The birth of a new origami kingdom!"
• "So what do you say? Will you volunteer your paper body to the cause?"
• "Ah, I expected nothing less. And to be honest, I wouldn't have it any other way." (After saying no)
• "Oh really? You expect me to fall for such a simple trick?!" (After saying yes)
• "Why couldn't Mario have simply left you in that wall where I put you..."
• "Oh, hello."
• "Yes. It's been a while, hasn't it?"
• "Ahh, sister... You have such a flat outlook on life. All I am doing is creating a glorious kingdom for origami like us."
• "How can you not grasp the brilliance and daring of my plan?"
• "Very well."
• "I thought perhaps you would listen to reason. I see I was mistaken."
• "Ever since you've teamed up with this Mario fellow, you've been nothing but a crinkle in my neck."
• "It ends now."
• "Consider this path closed."
• "Alas, there will be an empty origami throne beside mine..."
• "But no matter. The birth of my Origami Kingdom is imminent. You may as well sit back and wait for its arrival."
• "Well, you're finally here. Took you long enough."
• "As a matter of fact, it took you so long that there is nothing you can do to stop me now."
• "Oh, the princess is right in front of you. Behold!"
• "I told you, didn't I? That I would transform all of Peach's Castle into an origami castle. Including the princess herself."
• "She is at one with the castle now. Beautiful, precious and silent. I'm sure she's happier this way."
• "I would. And I did."
• "Witness The Thousand Cranes technique! He who has the patience to fold 1,000 origami cranes shall have any wish granted."
• "That is real, ultimate power, and I shall use it to turn every last one of those wretched Toads into mere blank paper."
• "Of course I do! He's the whole reason I'm doing this!"
• "That fool disrespected the very paper I am made of... He scribbled all over it!"
• "Now I bear the hideous scar of his negligence and disregard for origami... And he shall pay!"
• "If you've seen one Toad, you've seen them all! They're all the same to me!"
• "That's why I have to turn them all into blank pieces of paper. So I never have to see a single one of their stupid faces again!"
• "That... is my vision for a glorious origami kingdom."
• "As for you, Mario. You've proven to be quite annoying."
• "But there's nothing you can do now to stop me. Already, 999 of my cranes are complete..."
• "After I defeat you... I'll honor your paper by folding you into the very last crane!"
• "Your adventure ends here, Mario."
• "I WILL fulfill my dream. If you won't fold willingly... I shall bend you to my will by force!"
• "Indeed. I've mastered the techniques of every Bibliofold. Now... witness how a KING wields these powers!"
• "*pant, pant* You... surpassed the power of my superior, folded paper..."
• "SHUT IT! I don't need your pity!"
• "I folded you so we could turn this flat world into an origami kingdom..."
• "But you betrayed me... and allied yourself with these paper peasants!"
• "Don't you see, Olivia? We're both origami! Why are you fighting me?!"

Koopa Troopa

• "We'd go try to stop him, but, y'know... We're Koopa Troopas. What are we gonna do? Walk into him slowly?"

Goomba

• "We're the front line! That's proof that we're Lord Bowser's favorites. We always give 110 percent."

Hammer Bro

• "You did it, man! First paper to ever defeat scissors. They're gonna write a book about it, and then a movie that everyone will hate."

Hole Punch

• "Lady, I couldn't stop groovin' now if I wanted to. So I guess we're gonna have to... FACE. OFF."
• "I am PUMPED. I'm gonna own this dance floor till the break of dawn. And, seeing as there's no sun to rise in here, that means this groove is never gonna end! HEY! C'mon!"
• "You wanna dance? You wanna DANCE, bro?!"
• "Get back down here so I can two-step your face!"
• "Oh, man... Why'd you have to harsh my groove? We had it bumpin' in here!"
• "Disco forever! Count it down!"

• "If ya look up ahead, you'll see Shogun Studio's famous castle!"
• "We could continue the river tour, if ya'd like. Sweetpaper Valley is jes' up ahead. What'll it be?"
• "What in the- Where'd this thing come from? We can't pass through the gate with this in the way!"
• "Yep. We'll have to turn around and head back fer now."
• "OK, then! You folks go have fun. I'll be waitn' here when you're done!"
• "Howdy, folks. We can't go any further with that blue thing blockn' our path. Whatcha wanna do?"

Ol' Grandsappy

• "I've hardly got the hardwoods to speak, let alone learn you some manners... *hack*"
• "If you can find a way to restore my energy, I may just let you two leave this place."
• "Ach! Ptooey! Nope. That ain't it." (After giving Ol' Grandsappy the Shriveled Seed)
• "It's doin' something! Watch out now!" (After giving Ol' Grandsappy the Soul Seed)
• "That little seed was all it took. Tightened up my timbers and put the funk back in my trunk. I'm young again!"

Olivia

• "It's cramped and dark...almost like I'm in between dimensions or something"
• "That...that sounded good! Are your arms all big and foldy now?" (After using the first Magic Circle)
• "Oh, was I just stuck in that wall?" (After freeing Olivia)
• "Save complete, huh? Guess that means your adventure up to this point has been saved! Phew!" (After hitting the first Save Block)
• "Everything here is made of paper, of course, so every little bit of confetti is like a tiny piece of our world."

• "It's eating it?!"
• "What?! Hang on. Are you telling me this place is..."
• "A THEME PARK?! That sounds like so much fun! Can we go? Please?
• "Well, Mario...it looks like we HAVE to check out Shogun Studios. It would be irresponsible not to."
• "So Shogun Studios it is! Right? We're gonna stop here, right? Please?"
• "WHAT?! We're not going to Shogun Studios? But...but..." (if the player chooses to go downriver)
• "Shogun Studios..."
• "We do? My goodness! I guess you're right, Bobby! What a great idea. So glad you thought of it."
• "Yesss! Oh, we're going to have SO much fun in Shogun Studios!"

Princess Peach

• "How good to see you…"
• "Shouldn't the Mushroom Kingdom... unfold? And be refolded unto glory?" (first question)
• "And what of those... Toads? Shouldn't they be silenced... for all of eternity?" (second question)
• "Will you crease yourself and be reborn, just like me?" (third question)
• "Wrong answer. Right answer. It matters not. All your responses are all paper thin."
• "Goodbye..."
• "Why are you still so...flat?"
• "Why haven't you joined me in folded glory..."

Professor Toad

Luigi

• "Uh, Mario? I meant let's-a go the other way. Toward Peach's Castle, Bro!"
• "...Where is everybody? You don't think we missed it, do you?"
• "Don't worry, Mario. I know just what to do in situations like this."
• "OK...I'm just gonna take a deep breath and go find the key to this door. That's what you'd do, right?"

• "Hey, guys! I hope I didn't miss too much. I found the Origami Craftsman!"

Rubber Band

Scissors

• "Let's get this straight: I WILL annihilate you...but I don't see why we can't have some fun first. After all, where's the challenge in slicing you to strips immediately?"
• "My blade has been unsheathed... Now it must taste ink and paper!"
• "It was fun while it lasted...but your feeble attacks have grown tiresome. Let's CUT to the climax!"

Shy Guy

• "In even better news, the Sudden Death round is your chance to earn another fabulous prize! And in slightly worse news, if you lose, it's game over."
• "That adds up to a grand total of (number) points. You still need (number) more points to win!"
• "Oh no! Even if Mario gets everything right from here on out, he still can't get enough points to win."
• "And you know what that means...Game over!"

Tape

• "HEY! I'm not tacky! I'm STICKY! DAT'S IT! Ya want a piece of me? Well, you're gonna get it!"
• "You two got some noive, bustin' up my precious, tailor-made dispenser like dat. It was worth a fortune, not to mention the senty-mental value!"
