Mona does NOT Love Wario! 

I've got no horse in this race, but "if you love someone, you should be okay with wage theft" is one of the wildest takes I have ever heard lmao

In a cutscene in GiT Mona is disgusted by the fact Wario likes the game bugs so thats another point to her not being a mindless Wario fan girl or obsessed with all aspects of him 😂

Bro is Y A P P I N G 🗣🗣🗣 You had to reach SO HARD. She called him the DREAMIEST! She's said to be SMITTEN with him. Those words have such a strong romantic connotation it's not even funny. Even saying she "admires" him has an obvious romantic connotation. Ever hear the phrase "you have an admirer"? You don't have to like it but it's super obvious that's what the devs of the older games were going for. You're also mega overthinking it because it's obviously just supposed to be played for laughs that a cute girl would like such a gross nasty dude. It's supposed to be nonsense because it's funny. That's literally it.

Dude it's Wariowere who gives a shit. It's the game about pressing A at the right time to successfully pick a nose

To answer “why is this scene here” of Wario dreaming of Mona and calling her cute, I refer you to the Japanese Nintendo site for Mario Golf for the Game Boy Color (translation via DeepL): “Age: ??? Driving distance: ??? Ballistic: ??? Wa-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha! Who am I? Can you guess? Hint 1: I'm as handsome as a Hollywood star. I'm serious. Hint 2: I have the style and fashion of a supermodel! The yellow shirt and purple trousers were ordered by a top brand! Clue 3: I wear a pair of dark green shoes made of high-end cowhide leather! Clue 4: I’m in trouble because I’m so irresistible to high school girls all over the country! I'm telling the truth! How about that? Did you guess it? I'm Wario! You don't know who that is? Even if you don't know the prime minister's name, remember mine!” It seems that this implies Wario, at least at one point, had a thing for highschoolers, or at least prided himself on receiving attention from them. Minor nitpick, but we technically don’t know if Mona is a teenager technically, just that she’s in high school. I only bring this up because maybe they envision(ed) her as a young adult who’s just still in high school? Probably not, but just putting it out there. I would say this is still canon but given they haven’t brought it up in a long time it doesn’t really matter. Captain Syrup might also be on the Phone in WarioWare: Gold, which is interesting.

My head canon is that she's in her last year of high school, so she's 18. But even if she was like 16, I like the idea that Wario doesn't actually care that much about her. It's mostly a one-sided crush. Sure, he might find her cute, but even if she's an adult, I don't think he's looking for a genuine relationship. It's too much of a bother and just distracts him from what really matters: 💰 So Mona may thirst after him, but he don't care. I just like that there's a character who finds Wario attractive, while most people just call him ugly cuz he's fat. Fun fact: In the german dub of Mona's story in Wario Ware Gold, she says that she likes "chubby cheeks", as a justification for why she finds Wario cute. 😂 I'm surprised you didn't mention that cutscene.

Mona doesn't have a canon age, sure she's a high schooler, but high schoolers can be 18 in Japan and other countries too. Not that it wouldn't be creepy, but do you really care that much about who online strangers ship? Also just because Monas feelings aren't explicitly stated doesn't make it any less obvious, Wario himself of course doesn't care about Mona but younger people having one sided crush's on older people they admire is a normal thing. Also that part about Monas complaints with Wario is stupid, just because you love someone doesn't mean you blindly put up with them treating you like shit. Is Mona hypothetically loving and getting with Wario healthy? No, but that doesn't mean its impossible for her to have a crush.

She literally has a picture of him in her room.

What are you yapping about she in the game show proved that more than once do I need to mention she has a photo of him on her bedroom??

So she’s a Wario fan girl who looks up to him (well his past adventures) and wants to be like him (it’s sort of like Amy Rose and Sonic except if Sonic was washed up)

shes madly in love with him

you can ship whatever you want man. It doesn't have to make sense.

what, so just cause she's working hard days in a pizza shop AND in a mine for long days, means she can't be in love with Wario???

plot twist: wario is the one who loves mona

Why u calling her a minor I though mona had no canon age, the image you show just say she's in high school, you can be 18 in high school tho, at least the last year of it

I guess it makes sense with the text from Mona. Wario doesn't really care about being formal or fit. He kinda just does his own thing.

Look like if my greatest achievement wario Land 4 for the game boy advance

Mona is not a minor, wth. She has multiple jobs, makes TV ads and has her own mansion... she can drive too! She cannot be a minor!!!

Of course, that's ridiculous, we all know the truth is that 5-Volt loves ME

Mona likes Wario, Wario likes Money. 7:18 - In the Japanese version of the first WarioWare, Mona says to Wario, “It's unfair to keep it all to yourself!”

Bro she obviously has a crush on him but it's one-sided. Thing is, Wario doesn't care about her in that way at all. This is a completely innocuous thing that happens in real life and no one cares, because it's correctly seen as an immature, one-sided crush. Bringing up age of consent as if they are real people who are actually in a relationship together is totally insane.

I think a lot of people forgot Wario already had a love interest in Wario land 4 in Princess Shokora.

And not only that, Mona call him name about the money he is about to run away with. 10:58 The same money they earn during game development. 7:15 3:40 LAL! Wario's Idle animation in WL4 show him doing exercise. 5:18 That's explain her Adventurer outfit in DIY 8:56 9:10 Now that crack me up! 11:39 OOH! Love this cover! 15:33 Princess Shokora! 16:29 TROW HER AWAY!

me starting the video : "he's right, Mona/Wario makes no sense!" me ending it : "there were a lot of reaches, and brushing over canon interactions..maybe the shippers were right."

There is no way u made an essay about a high school GIIRL possibly intrested in a intimate relationship with a man whos older than her ( this is like a plot line in real life you come to accept) bruhhh

bullsh!T she doesn't as being attracted to someone doesn't mean they have to be lovey dovey or one side jerk/other side blind as admiring is a form of attraction just not overly(kinda a bit like sonic & amy in the beginning before she became a stalker in the jason era/thankfully remembered her charm toning it down.)with how a few times wario is shown to care for mona(in the 1st gba game's intermissions he is shown dreaming of her when sleeping & bringing her on treasure hunting adventures when even waluigi hasn't really done that outside somewhat aces.) it's just not shoved in the face or getting cold feet like mario.

Is that the John Hancock Tower in Boston?

worio

I don't ship them at all and am glad Nintendo doesn't, but i do think it's pretty obvious she's attracted to dude, even if it stemmed from wanting to be LIKE him not so much wanting to be WITH him. Its a "he's her type.... For some reason" scenario played as a joke. Plus as others have said, younger ppl have one sided crushes on older ppl they idolize all the time. I mean I've been wanting to hold hands with Vanessa Hudgens since I was like 7 for example lol. I mean get being weirded out by folks who actively ship it, but its just internet strangers playing around with fictional characters at the end of the day, it's not like they can make it official. That being said, this was still a good video, i like learning about those Japan only sites with character diaries/interviews. While i wouldn't say it debunks Mona's attraction, it does highlight why she has it. And its her own goals of having her own treasure hunting adventures someday, but she's also not so infatuated that she goes simp mode whenever he's around and gets heart eyes. And like you said, Wario's love is money and Syrup is a better match anyway if Nintendo ever were to give him a main squeeze lol.

I swear Mona was meant to be older at first. Even her OG voice sounded older. It feels like they aged her down in the Wii. But that's just my own headcanon.

Considering all the grief he’s caused her dad I’m not surprised

0:20 going into this blind, i hope you mention the ingame bio of i think get it together (i think was the first switch title) where it says she has a crush on wario but don't know why(if not that game it was one of the others 😂)

The only love interests that Wario has are Money and Treasures. That’s it!

I throw up source?

Can't believe i thought she had good taste in men

Now I agree that Wario x Mona is literal p3d0ph1l1@ and should NOT be shipped, but saying that Mona doesn't have a thing for Wario when she clearly does is just...incorrect. Heck, one of her favorite Prezzies is a LITERAL NOSE HAIR that is described as GROSS, and she probably only likes it because it reminds her OF WARIO. That doesn't mean she supports him all the time, but she's clearly into him. I don't ship it myself, not AT ALL, because it's still disgusting for Wario to be into Mona, but Mona being into Wario, at the end of the day, is completely harmless. Why? Because I, too, am a minor who has had crushes on adults. As long as the adult isn't into the minor, it's perfectly fine, and the minor will most likely grow out of it.

Hello I have subscribed to your RU-vid channel

Honestly WarioXCaptain Syrup makes more sense in a Dating CatWoman type of way

I think a potential lover for Wario could be...Waluigi. Nintendo established multiple occasions that they are not related and their true relationship is unknow. They also appeared to be around the sane age, so...why not

THANK you! I’m *so* glad I’m not the only one who thinks this “Warmona” crap needs to be subsided. She deserves WAY better! I hope her admiration for Wario is dialed down completely whenever a New warioware game is released.

Plus, Wario only loves money.

I think the people "shipping" them are taking it too seriously and are possibly posers, and you are putting too much stock into the possibilities and defense. The thing with Wario and Mona is a joke to be played for laughs. To be serious Mona is similar to Mario. Both are out going extroverts looking to be top in their field. The dream sequence can be seen as either one or two ways, or even both-- Wario is appreciative toward her work by acknowledging her traits, Mona is so similar to Mario that he can't help but notice on a subcounsis level. But it doesn't matter because the gag is with Mona not with him. She's the butt of the joke. Nintendo gives us some seemly useless facts about Mona (like her preferred guy type and her likes in men), but this is actually to set up a gag with her. To be frank Mona likes "Macho" men. Macho men in the Japanese pop society are usually clearly defined and don't fit into "social norms" (a.k.a "wild"). Within the Nintendo mythos of Mario, the definite nose and mustache are seen as a form of manliness. In short, the joke is similar to the one in American pop media of the super peppy valley girl liking the T-Bird motorcyclist or the top wrestling gym-bro. It's just a damn joke. Regarding Wario's possibilities, chances are Nintendo is going to make up an offscreen romance if they feel he needs one, just like the two random hotties at the end of his one game. He has a defined nose and mustache, so any lady that like macho men is going to like him. Syrup is more of a joking antagonist, and the other two are royalty. The royalty thing is important because Nintendo mythos consistently displays feminine royals as an idea personified than as people, so the age of the other two is more "old enough" than as actual question. In short, the possibilities don't matter because they can make it up when they feel like it for the sake of a joke and toss it aside for the sake of a joke. It's just a gag.
