'''Gooper Blooper''' is a giant [[Blooper]] with large and longer tentacles. He first appears as a [[List of bosses|boss]] in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', where he appears in the levels [[Ricco Harbor]] and [[Noki Bay]]. He uses his tentacles to smack [[Mario]], draining his [[Health Meter|health]]. After his debut in ''Super Mario Sunshine'' and reappearance in ''Super Princess Peach'', Gooper Blooper's role was shifted to that of a recurring boss in sports games and other spin-offs.
'''Gooper Blooper''' is a giant [[Blooper]] with long tentacles. He first appears as a [[List of bosses|boss]] in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' and has since appeared in a number of other games in the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise.

Gooper Blooper makes his debut in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. He first appears in [[Gooper Blooper Breaks Out|the first mission of]] [[Ricco Harbor]]. He is found hiding under a mountain of crates, and Mario must pull off one of his tentacles to initiate the battle with him.
Gooper Blooper attacks using his tentacles, but each one of them can be pulled off, just like the first. The tentacles can be halted beforehand for a time by jumping on them, flattening them. After washing the black ink off his face, Mario can pull the cork out of Gooper Blooper's mouth, causing ink to spray all over Gooper Blooper and the surrounding area. It is possible to beat Gooper Blooper without pulling off any tentacles, though it is slightly more difficult, as he will immediately attack if Mario grabs his cork, provided the tentacles are not flattened.

With the cork gone, Mario can then pull Gooper Blooper's mouth back and let go to snap it back into his face like elastic, causing the boss severe harm. After his mouth is pulled and snapped back twice, Gooper Blooper is defeated, and he blasts off into the sky, landing in the part of the sea covered in goop. If he is defeated with tentacles intact, they will fly off with him, though they will appear slightly detached.
In ''Super Mario Sunshine'', Gooper Blooper is first encountered in [[Ricco Harbor]], during two different episodes. In Episode 1: [[Gooper Blooper Breaks Out]], Gooper Blooper is hiding under a mountain of crates, and Mario must pull off one of his tentacles to initiate the battle with him. Gooper Blooper attacks using his tentacles, but each one of them can be pulled off, just like the first one Mario had pulled off. The tentacles can be halted beforehand for a time by jumping on them, flattening them. After washing the black ink off his face, Mario can pull the cork out of Gooper Blooper's mouth, causing ink to spray all over Gooper Blooper and the surrounding area.

[[File:SMS Prerelease Blue Gooper Blooper.jpg|right|200px|thumb|A pre-release version of Gooper Blooper]]
In Episode 5: [[Gooper Blooper Returns]], Gooper Blooper is fought on the helicopter pad, now with regrown tentacles. The only difference from the previous battle is that Gooper Blooper now has a new attack in which he spins around, trying to hit Mario with his tentacles. After being defeated, Gooper Blooper is blasted off into the sky and crashes into the sea. Gooper Blooper makes a third and final appearance in [[Noki Bay]]'s second episode, [[The Boss of Tricky Ruins]], on the peak of the mountain, moving slightly faster than in his Ricco Harbor battles. Unlike Gooper Blooper's first two battles, a variation of the miniboss theme (used for [[Proto Piranha|Gatekeeper]]s, the [[Plungelo]]s, and the [[Phantamanta|Manta]]) plays instead of the normal boss theme. Upon being defeated this time, he crashes onto the mountain side.
However, Gooper Blooper survives, and is fought the same way with re-grown tentacles in [[Gooper Blooper Returns| the fifth mission of the same area]], this time on the helicopter pad. Gooper Blooper gains a new attack in this fight, in which he spins around, trying to hit Mario with his tentacles. Otherwise, the fight is the same as before, and after being defeated, Gooper Blooper is blasted off into the sky and crashes into the sea.

Gooper Blooper appears for the last time in [[The Boss of Tricky Ruins| the second mission of]] [[Noki Bay]] on the peak of the mountain. Unlike the other battles, the [[Proto Piranha|Gatekeeper]] boss theme plays instead of the normal boss theme. His tactics are retained from Ricco Harbor, but he now moves slightly faster in this battle. Upon being defeated this time, he crashes onto the mountain side.
In some [[List of Super Mario Sunshine pre-release and unused content|pre-release builds]], Gooper Blooper was dark teal with periwinkle spots. Though not necessarily an unused feature, if Gooper Blooper is hacked into a stage other than Ricco Harbor, the ink on his face will be the color of the goop texture loaded for that map.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7XxA6qyT_g</ref><ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVu4olXcvm8</ref>

In the ''[[Super Mario 3D All-Stars]]'' port of the game, the resolution is high enough for the player to read the writing on Gooper Blooper's cork. The cork reads "bsgeso," likely short for "Boss ''Gessō''," his Japanese name.

Gooper Blooper appears again in ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'' as the boss of [[Wavy Beach]] and the fifth boss in the game, and is damaged by attacking his tentacles and mouth with [[Perry]]. During the battle, he releases ink, which slows [[Princess Peach|Peach]] down when she walks on it. Peach can get rid of the ink by using her tears from the [[Gloom]] [[vibe]]. He will also slam his tentacles down at Peach, and swing them to try to grab her, squeezing her and rapidly draining her health until the player shakes her free if he succeeds. After Gooper Blooper loses four health points, he uses the [[Calm]] vibe to create a bubble and fall asleep to regain health. Peach can wake him up by damaging the bubble enough times. Gooper Blooper is larger in this game, compared to others.

Gooper Blooper returns once again in the [[Wii]] version of ''[[Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games (Wii)|Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games]]'', where he is the final obstacle in the [[Dream Rafting]] competition in [[World 4 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|Cheep Cheep River]]. When faced, Gooper Blooper traps the competitors' raft in a whirlpool and will try to slam them with his tentacles. If the player dodges it successfully, they can use this chance to jump on his tentacles. Once all four tentacles are jumped on, Gooper Blooper will begin to quiver in pain and leap into the air, landing back down in the water defeated and dazed. A cover version of his original boss music from ''Super Mario Sunshine'' is used during the battle.

In ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'', Gooper Blooper appears as the boss of [[World 3 (Paper Mario: Sticker Star)|World 3]], marking his first appearance in the [[Paper Mario (series)|''Paper Mario'' series]]. Following the destruction of the [[Sticker Fest]], a [[Royal Sticker]] landed on Gooper Blooper, turning him and all surrounding [[Blooper]]s into [[Poison Blooper]]s, leading to a mass poisoning of the ocean and forest.

In battle, Gooper Blooper's attacks are rhythmically synced to his Latin-style music. While Mario is browsing the [[Album]], Gooper Blooper will play to the music by either clapping his tentacles together or pounding the ground, depending on his attack phase. The music notably intensifies as each phase progresses.
