I'm not happy.
Sponge

You may have realized that the Mario universe is very happy. This is due to Sponge, an orange plumber with an even bigger moustache than Mario or Luigi, soaks up all the sadness in the world, making him depressed. Not helping his mood disorder is the fact that no one cares about him, even his own brothers.

Origin[]

One day Vinny was playing the game Super Mario 3D World on stream, when he realized everything in the game was too happy, so he came up with a new orange and teal Mario brother named Sponge, who would use his mustache to fight enemies. A viewer by the name of nasnumbers came up with a backstory for the character: In which he was a forgotten Mario brother who used his mustache to soak up all depression, this explaining how the Mario games are so happy and colorful. He grew an immense fan following after he was added to the growing roster of Mii's in Vinny's Tomodachi Life Series. This newfound fame led to subsequent appearances in two fan games, a mod, and the stream of the sequel; Miitopia.
