Unpopular opinions about the Mario series

But he's not really a villain per se, more like an anti-hero/punching bag now.

My ranking of Fawful among the entire cast is hard to determine. But I will say out of the villain cast, he's the most important aside from Bowser, Donkey Kong and Wario, and tied with King Boo.

Importance (not how much I like them): Bowser (all minions included)>Donkey Kong=Wario>Fawful=King Boo (Luigi's Mansion appearances only)>Dimentio=Waluigi (he ranks higher as a regular character because IIRC he hasn't been a main antagonist much)=Antasma=Cackletta=Shroobs=Grodus/X-Nauts=Shadow Queen=Tatanga=Wart=Count Bleck=Smithy>the rest of them.

(Villains from games starring someone besides Mario or Luigi not ranked)

Bowser >DK >King Boo >the rest.
 
I paired them together because they're both small star creatures. If Starlow had gotten a different partner it probably would've been Dreambert though.

My full roster:
Mario+Luigi
Peach+Daisy
Wario+Waluigi
Baby Mario+Baby Luigi
Kamek+Kammy
Bowser+Bowser Jr.
Yoshi+Birdo
Toad+Toadette
Toadsworth+Toadbert
Koopa Troopa+Lakitu
Donkey Kong+Funky Kong
Diddy Kong+Dixie Kong
Rosalina+Lubba
Fawful+Antasma
Petey Piranha+King Boo

--DLC--
Gold Mario+Silver Luigi
Shadow Mario+Mr. L
Luma+Starlow
Dry Bowser+Dark Bowser
Classic Mario+Paper Luigi
