Tubba Blubba's Heart is a sentient organ that belongs to Tubba Blubba. It serves as the first boss of Chapter 3 and is overall the fifth boss of the game.

History[]

Paper Mario[]

During the events of Paper Mario, Tubba Blubba is used as an invincible weapon by Bowser, being the result of a separation of his heart and body. His heart was located in the Windmill, and controlled his body from within. Mario defeated it, forcing the heart to rejoin Tubba Blubba, cancelling the invincibility that Tubba Blubba once had.

Attacks[]

Tubba Blubba's Heart has two attacks that are quite devastating, the first and of which is a tackle that does 6 damage. Its most powerful move is charged attack, where it prepares for one turn, then unleashes a series of smaller versions of Tubba Blubba's Heart at the player on the next turn that deal 12 damage.

Tips[]

Bow should always be used in this fight, because of the powerful "Heart Swarm" attack were Tubba's Heart charges up for a turn and then unleashes a deadly 12 damaging attack. Whenever he charges up this attack, the Player should use Bow's Outta Sight immediately to avoid any damage. Bow is also good for dealing damage as well because the Heart has no defense points, meaning that Bow can slap it for 4 (or 5 if she's upgraded) damage each round. The Player can also use Mario's Power Bounce/Jump for more additional damage and it shouldn't be a hard fight. 

Trivia[]

  • Although Tubba Blubba is the main villain of chapter 3, many fans generally considered Tubba Blubba's Heart as the true main antagonist of the chapter.
  • Tubba Blubba's Heart is the second/final boss of Paper Mario to not have firepower be made of pure energy.
