Koops: Difference between revisions

The second to join [[Mario|Mario's]] party in [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door|Paper Mario 2]], '''Koops''' is a [[Koopa Troopa|Koopa]] from [[Petalburg]]. Very much like [[Kooper]] from the original [[Paper Mario]], he can retreat into his shell and use it as a weapon against foes, and Mario can also launch him at switches or distant objects to hit them or retrieve them. He is with Mario to avenge his father [[Koopley]], whom he believes to be dead, and to prove to Petalburg and his girlfriend, [[Koopie Koo]], that he is not a coward.　In Japan, Koops is known as Nokotarou(ノコタロウ) which comes from the name "Nokonoko", the Japanese name for the Koopa Troopa, as well as "Tarou", a common boy's name in Japan.
