Is Yoshi non-binary?

Yoshi isn't officially confirmed as non-binary, but many fans see them that way because the character lays eggs (suggesting female traits) but is often called "he," while Japanese game lore states Yoshis reproduce asexually, meaning they are neither male nor female, making them a beloved figure for non-binary identities. Nintendo leaves Yoshi's gender ambiguous, leaning into the asexual reproduction aspect to bypass traditional gender roles.

Why is lumalee so dark?

Lumalee is so dark and nihilistic in The Super Mario Bros. Movie because the film draws from the lore of Super Mario Galaxy, where Lumas willingly sacrifice themselves to become galaxies, stars, or power-ups, viewing it as their life's purpose and destiny, essentially meaning "death" is a positive transformation for them, even if Lumalee's cheerful embrace of it seems morbidly dark to others like Luigi. He's depicted as a prisoner of Bowser, amplifying his grim outlook, but his obsession with the "sweet relief of death" is a clever, darker take on the Lumas' core mechanic of transformation.
