*Prior to the battle with [[Fracktail]], Tippi recognizes and claims to remember Dimentio immediately after he appears. The reason for this is never explained or even hinted at throughout the rest of the game.

*Although it is never directly stated, it is possible that Tippi's Pixl form was the same one whose game ended while fighting the [[Pixl Queen]] - it was said that the Pixl could see through illusions, similar to how Tippi can sense and reveal things that are invisible. The creation of new Pixls was also outlawed after the fall of the queen, making it possible that, rather than break this law, Merlon instead captured Timpani's spirit inside an already existing Pixl. This would also explain why she didn't have long to survive, as he claimed, seeing as the Pixl was likely damaged while fighting against the queen.
**However, [[Thoreau]] seems to dispute this when he first meets Mario - he claims to not recognize Tippi and asks if she is a newer Pixl model. If she were truly one of the twelve original Pixls, Thoreau likely would've remembered her, as he was also implied to have fought against the Pixl Queen.
*If the player [[Flip|flips]] into 3D in the room where Francis is battled, several close-up pictures of Tippi are shown plastered to the back wall, supposedly those he took of her.
*Tippi's backstory, as well as her implied fate, shares many concepts with that of [[Rosalina]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'':
**In her [[Rosalina's Storybook|storybook]], Rosalina mentions living near a hill with a tree, and that her mother was buried there; this coincides with the post-credits scene in ''Super Paper Mario'', in which Timpani was shown standing near a tree on a hill with Blumiere. In addition, both of them remembered watching the stars with someone close to them - Tippi remembered doing so with Blumiere after Chapter 5, while Rosalina did with her father atop the aforementioned hill.
**Tippi tells Dimentio that all things have the power to alter their destinies - a similar philosophy is shared by Rosalina in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', when she mentions a power greater than the stars that determines the destinies of all things.
**Incidentally, both Rosalina and Count Bleck searched endlessly for someone they loved - [[Luma (character)|Luma]] and Tippi herself, respectively.
