Jumping over Bowser doesn't kill him. Running under Bowser doesn't kill him.

The same thing that sega meant by this. Once you solve that, you have your answer.

Wrong. Both are WAYS to kill him. If there are two roads leading to a place do you think there is only one way to get there simply because you'll end up in the same place regardless of which one you take?

No they aren't. They're ways to get to the axe to cut the bridge to kill him.

There are three ways to kill him which is technically "several"

obviously the actual reason is shaky translation

That's what we said. Ways to kill him.

>> No.4881116

That doesn't kill him. You could run under and jump over him as many times as you want. He doesn't die until you touch the axe.

To be exact, he doesn't die when you touch the axe, but when he fall in the lava. And not until world 8, since it's not Bowser in the first 7 worlds.

"There are several ways to kill it" doesn't necessarily means several finishing blows.
You can avoid bowser for a minute if you wanted to

i agree it's misleading though

1) Fireballs
2) Using axe to drop him in lava
3) Turning off the game and forgetting about it, thereby erasing his existence as a thoughtform

You stupid fucks, there are two methods of finishing an algorithm: either the algorithm relies on determinism or determination. If it relies on determinism, then for every action the is only one locigal proceeding action to get to the end (eg. Only "start" starts the game, no other input; you can press 'a' all fucking day and the game won't start). If it is determined, then every possible way the algorithm goes must finish in the same end position, no matter the multiple ways you can go. The manual clearly depicts that there is more than one way to achieve the desired end position, said killing of the Koopa, which in conclusion states the fact that the algorithm is determined. This states further that any action you do with Mario during the "bowser fight algorithm", be it jumping over the giant turtle-like entity, or swiftly running under him, will result in the final state of touching the axe, and thus killing the shelled beast. The algorithm ends with this action, multiple ways have been achieved, determination has succeeded, fuck you all for shitty engrish transration and me having to write this shit drunk.

Mario is a killer. And there's no female goombas, at least on Super Mario Bros.

This. There's potentially an infinite amount of ways you can beat him as long as it ends with you killing him, because "the killing"'s actual beginning can only be retroactively and arbitrarily decided. You could straight up say that the act that finished with you ultimately killing Bowser had started from the fucking Big Bang and there'd be no possible way to prove you wrong. Actions aren't fenced off like that. This is fucking dumb.
