Let's be honest, Princess Peach is a terrible ruler. She is a bad friend, an even worse girlfriend, and one of the most irritating enemies that one can play against in Smash. She has been a thorn in our side since her first appearance and as time has gone on, our hatred has only grown stronger.

Today, we will be exploring the numerous sins committed by Princess Peach and taking a stand against this totalitarian ruler. She will terrorize us no longer.

Note: this article is for entertainment purposes only and has been exaggerated in an attempt to create a comedic take on the character and the faults that some members of the fandom have found in the character.

10 10. Go-karting with Bowser

One the one hand, one could see this as Peach being determined to encourage those around her to put their petty differences aside in the name of fun activities and sport-themed outings. Or one could see it as her forcing someone that her friends are not comfortable with on the group.

Bowser is notorious for kidnapping Peach and being a major obstacle in Mario's life. It comes across as truly disrespectful that Peach would force the two to race together, without regard for anyone's feelings on the matter (except her own.)

9 9. No Security

How concerned is she about getting kidnapped really? Public figures who are deemed high kidnap risks are given self-defense training, qualified security teams, and, in extreme cases, body doubles (maybe that was Daisy's original purpose in the group.)

But Peach never makes any real attempt to protect herself. Now, we are not saying that being kidnapped is her fault in any way. However, if you find yourself getting kidnapped every other week, you might want to invest in a security team rather than relying on the local plumber to get you out of every sticky situation that comes your way.

8 8. Always Relying on Mario to Fix Problems

Everyone has that friend that never lends out a helping hand when people are coming up a bit short in life... but always seems to need something every other day. In the Mario world, that friend is Princess Peach.

She never does anything to try and prevent the situations and problems in which see finds herself and simply expects Mario to drop everything that he is doing in order to save her from herself. That is simply not okay and unfair to Mario.

7 7. Floaty Jumps Are Aggravating (Super Mario Bros 2)

Those who are not a big fan of Peach will know that when Princess Peach uses her aerial abilities to jump, she falls quite slowly after reaching her maximum height. This can make the platforming easier but slows down the pace of the game and can prevent her from being able to carry objects and affects her throwing distance.

This is insanely frustrating for those playing her and can seriously impact gameplay. It is rather evil of her to force players to slow down their pace so that she can take to the skies.

6 6. Avoidance Maneuvers (Smash Bros)

And that is not the only game that features this frustrating maneuver. Smash Bros is supposed to be a fun and fair time between friends, but Peach's ability to shoot up into the air and avoid attacks makes her a rather aggravating opponent.

Peach can float for a decent length of time in this game and it can be near impossible to take her down during these floaty jumps. Not cool, Peach.

5 5. Her Best Friend Is Her Clone (And There Is A Reason For That)

Being best friends with someone that looks utterly identical to you is rather odd. Daisy is a big player in the spin-off games for the Mario series but is usually pushed off to the side or not included in the main games involving the Mario storyline.

Some fans of the series (who aren't the biggest fan of Princess Peach) believe that Peach and Daisy are only friends so that Peach can "look at herself" and test out different looks without having to put the effort in herself. No need to wonder if you'd look good as a brunette if your identical friend can model the look for you.

Other theories state that she was meant to be a body double for Peach, to distract Bowser and keep her safe. Either way, not the sort of thing a best friend would do.

4 4. Steals Luigi's Spotlight

Luigi got the short stick in many aspects of his life, but coming second fiddle to Princess Peach was something that he never expected. After all, the series is supposed to be about the Mario brothers.

In Paper Mario, the camera cuts away from the action to focus on Peach in captivity. And more often than not, the camera cuts away from Mario to Peach, and skips Luigi entirely.

3 3. Doesn't Deny Being Bowser Jr's Mom

In Super Mario Sunshine while being abducted, yet again, by Bowser, her captor tells his child that she is his mother. Though this lie is not her fault, we are confused as to why she did not deny it.

Maybe she was afraid of what Bowser would do if she had but, honestly, it was rather cruel to give the child that kind of false hope.

2 2. Unfair Rewards

If you are rescuing someone from certain doom, you would hope that the reward that they offer you is equal to both the effort and the risk that the task requires. But Princess Peach has no idea about proportionate rewards and that makes it seem like she does not really value Mario's life at all.

In Super Mario 64, she promises to give Mario a cake she (may or may not) have baked herself before she had been kidnapped as a reward for saving her. That is not a fair reward, Peach.

1 1. Overpowered Turnip Attacks (Smash Bros)

Princess Peach's main strategy in Smash Bros is to incapacitate her enemies by throwing turnips at them to rack up damage. However, these turnips are sometimes accompanied by bombs that she can use to take out her enemies in a much faster fashion.

Having the ability to literally summon bombs to chuck at your enemies is seriously overpowered and just a bit evil in our books.
