Super Mario Bros.: Legend of the Chaos Star

That's awesome. I'd totally do something like that if it weren't for the fact that Antasma's already gotten screwed over enough, due to Bowser's horribly tacked on appearance in Dream Team. If he's to be the final boss in the story, I feel as if he deserves a chance to shine as a standalone villain.

I'm guessing the final boss is none other than the King of Awesome....Count Bleck! ^_^

20 chapters sounds good.

Well apparently there exist a Dreamy Bowser beta sprite, implying he might have been planned earlier than we through. (well IIRC, the developpers did say they wanted Bowser to be more evil in this game)

I like to think that Tas was made late in developpement (hence why his artworks are blue with black arms and slighty diffirent facial features while his sprites are purple and more cackletta-like), they eventually through that there was something wrong with Tas (The "too weak" argument) but couldn't pull him out of the game since they were too far into developpement, so they made that stunt to pull him out of the game as fast as they could.

But it's true Tas need another come back, so he can shine and be a memorable villain (also have an actually loyal assistant in which he can interact with)

Actually I thought that it was someone else (not telling who tho) but I think its either of the jester twins....i don't think that its Antasma and I am 99% sure its no Bowser uwu

Yeah they didn't speak about Tas being physicaly weak more like something in his writing which made him "weaker" than the evil Bowser they were going to put thus unfit for final boss slot which is why they decided that Bowser alone would be the final boss.

That's why i really hope the shoddy ending is just an excuse to re-work Antasma into a much more memorable and "stronger" villain for next game.

Adored the Cranky Kong commentary.

The Anti-Guy bit about gender also had me thinking and laughing.
