Kick The Ijiwaru


Characters kicking Waluigi's rear, from left to right: Rit (Rod Land, Soldam), Suchie-Pai (Suchie-Pai), Lip (Panel de Pon), Sakura Kinomoto (Star Dress) (Cardcaptor Sakura).

Let's face it. Waluigi will never get his day in the spotlight, because his name is an anagram of ijiwaru, which means ill-natured. And such an ill-natured person gets no love from Nintendo that he will never be Player 2 in a Wario Land game, or have his own set of microgames in the WarioWare series, or become a major antagonist in any game where Luigi is the main character, or even have his own game at all. Instead, in this comic, he gets kicked on the rear by more respectable characters who should get more respect from us. No wonder Waluigi was destined to remain an assist trophy in the Super Smash Bros games. His name was not worthy of any respect from us.
