I can't believe Mario died...

Since Cappy is a ghost, he could see Mario's ghost. That's how he met him. Now Mario is just there for support.

Cappy is trapped in a grief fueled delusion after learning about Marios death to the mafia while Cappy was stuck in prison. He is stuck reliving the adventures he had with mario, but stuck journeying on without him

Odyssey, but Cappy has Schizophrenia 😢

My theory is that when Mario died, he possessed the nearest living thing he could find (Cappy) and that's why you see Mario in cutscenes, he comes out for the cutscene and goes back in. And when clepto steals "Cappy" clepto steals cappy's soul and for the rest of the video Mario is possessing cappy's body without Cappy in it at all. In the festival, no one recognized Cappy for who he actually was and didn't let him participate in the festival.

Under an hour gang 👇

Cappy saying "Did you hear something?" had me fucking crying laughing when everyone just ignored him sinking further into delusion

The only thing that would make the mod even better is if Mario is put in the skeleton outfit in the very beginning. Then Cappy is legitimately carrying around his skeleton and hallucinating the entire time xD

Lore that I made up on the spot: This takes place five years after SMO, and Mario has died. Cappy is so depressed that he just wants to relive his old memories to the point that he hallucinates Mario. Cappy, now thinking that Mario had secretly survived, goes through all the old kingdoms that they once went through together and collecting all the same moons that they once had.

Cappy you need to let it go. I hate to see you like this. He’s not coming back. Nothing you do will bring him back

Cappy having hallucinations of mario is just an "unhappy accident", as Rob Moss would say.

Cappy is already a ghost, he met mario as a ghost, and he took over his hat. Meaning only cappy had physical form. But mario was just chilling with you the whole time.

Imagine how dizzy Cappy must be, having to constantly spin for the entire game.

Cappy sacrificed the plumber that gave his life value, all for Creative Mode with guilt jumpscares.

Obviously Mario is a lich, and he made the living Cappy his phylactery. When you speak with NPCs, when Mario manifests, it is because Cappy has summoned him, his dread master. It's only at the end when we see the true decayed form of the Eldritch Necromancer

This is all in Cappy’s mind, and he’s reliving the adventures to cope with Mario’s passing

I can't believe fir finally played my favourite game: Super Odyssey. Seen nobody talk about this game despite it being one of the best games ever made.

I like how nearly everything becomes easier with cappy on his own. He didn't even need mario, cappy was the main character this whole time

Cappy's been a ghost the whole time, everyone knows you can't kill a ghost.
