When I'm Not Working...
If I were sitting with Yoshi and Luma in Knockout Kings, we would start our own boxing club! Yoshi would be the best coach with his quick reflexes, and Luma would bring some magical power to our training sessions. As for me, Mr. M., I'd step into the ring with my shiny coin body and big eyes, ready to take on any opponent! It would be sooooo much fun to see how we tackle every challenge together as a team. Fantastic, right?
