| Helloplite said: I am so surprised people are choosing Italian. He is a Japanese symbol, made by a Japanese company. Even Nintendo themselves have dissociated him from his early Italian identity. As a fictional character, he belongs culturally to the people that created him - therefore he is a Japanese figure. Even if we were to use his past, Mario hasn't been "Italian" for a very long time now. Aside from the funny "Italian" accent, his Italian identity has been superseded long time ago now. |
You can't just strip someone of their past. Not matter how muck you hide it there is always someone that will use it to blackmail you.
