I’m not being fair to him. All of the characters could wear the cat suit (not to be confused with catsuit, for obvious reasons), including Toad, but Luigi is the type of character who was made to poke a little fun at. Other examples would be Pinky in Pinky and the Brain or Sans and Papyrus in Undertale (Undertale shirts are over here!). It’s a trope that goes back years and years, though it’s also sometimes reversed so that the fat one is a little dumb and the tall, skinny one is the brains. I’m pretty sure that’s not the case with Luigi, but since I always root for the underdog, I’d take this over a Mario plush any day.
