The following moment, Peach transforms into her rather chunky Elephant form. In reaction to this, Bowser gives Elephant Peach a one-over, and excitedly pulls out a full bouquet of flowers to replace the single flower he offered previously. He then gazes at her excitedly from different angles. It seems that Bowser not only continues to love Peach even if she turns into an elephant, but actually appears to dig the look even more. He offers a master course on how to pass the \u201cWould you still love me as a worm?\u201d test.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">BOWSER EYEING HER DOWN HELP MEEEE??!!!)))(?? <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/HNtDFGETuC\">https:\/\/t.co\/HNtDFGETuC<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/DXZ7AmsIux\">pic.twitter.com\/DXZ7AmsIux<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Owen \ud83e\udde1 (@Ovirtuous_) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Ovirtuous_\/status\/1711917301849526435?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 11, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Nintendo managed to subvert everyone\u2019s expectations by avoiding the clich\u00e9 of the transformation into a bigger\/less attractive form causing a disgusted reaction, and the response has been overwhelming between Japanese and overseas fans alike. In the Japanese community, users can be agreeing in unison about the fact that Bowser is a real \u201cikemen\u201d (masculine, hot gentleman) and praising his pure-hearted, hopeless romantic nature. Where <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/be1015\/status\/1711942801473339628?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">different opinions<\/a> arose was in whether Bowser simply loves Princess Peach the same regardless of her appearance, which is why he adjusted the number of flowers to her size, or if, perhaps, the elephant form made him especially excited because it made Peach non-human like himself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">BOWSER LOVES BBWs WE WONNNN <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/FALgy3J2zU\">https:\/\/t.co\/FALgy3J2zU<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/w6WHOGacNa\">pic.twitter.com\/w6WHOGacNa<\/a><\/p>&mdash; tippity (@tippitytoptweet) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/tippitytoptweet\/status\/1711934422205739434?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 11, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Bowser is also being praised for his \u201clove of BBW\u201d and un-fatphobic nature that shows through his actions, and the list of his qualities goes on.
