If you call back to the end of Pizza Tower when the Tower crumbles, Peppino doesn’t leave anyone behind. He gets everyone out of there including his enemies he fought along the way. It’s almost as if he didn’t want to repeat what he did all those years ago during the war and run away from the danger, leaving everyone behind. I don’t know man, just something to think about.
just as a reminder: THIS CAME FROM A GAME ABOUT FIGHTING A PIZZA WITH A FACE TO STOP YOUR RESTAURANT FROM BEING SHOT WITH A DEATH LASER. how is this so heartfelt and real in a minute and a half
Peppino is probably in his 40s, considering that his war uniform resembles a lot the uniform of the italian partisans Peppino must have fought in WW2 agaisnt the italian fascists and assisted the Ardeatine massacre in Rome commutted by the Nazis in 1944, it is from this event that Peppino got his PTSD that haunts him every night. We can see that from peppino's war days that his appearance is the one of a strong and athletic man meaning that Peppino must have fought in WW2 when he was in his 20s maybe when he was 21, for this maybe Pizza tower takes place 20 years after WW2 (probably in the 60s), we can also see Peppino using the US dollar at the beginning of the game meaning that after the war Peppino moved to the United States like many Italians did somewhere between 1945 and 1970 (600.000 italians moved to the US after the war). So Peppino is an italian ww2 partisan veteran who suffered a great trauma in 1944 and moved to America in 1962 in search for a better life and to cope with his trauma
Man who would've though that Peppino's past is still haunting him for all these to only think that he will have people killed if they are close to him but good thing for Gustavo to still be with him as a friend. This is who I love PT
Just imagine what kind of backstory would have Pizzelle that is related with a snowstorm. Can't wait they make a comic about it. Pizzelle is just too adorable.
Peppino's PTSD was so well handled, but also so full of emotion. Some games or shows I've seen had ptsd characters, like bluey(Mackenzie?) and, ugh... Happy Tree friends (flippy) , but none have had as much emotion in it as this 😭😢🥲 not even Bluey, a show known for touching on every age's humor, emotions, situations, problems, struggles, disabilities, and certain types of lifestyles.
It’s surprising that Pizza Tower has such deep lore, even though there are only two levels in the game that add exactly that to such a light hearted game. Pizza Tower will be the next Kirby in terms of lore.
this is actual lore though, peppino's confirmed to be a war vet. it's not that hard to figure out since WAR is the last level of the game so it must be important
To be honest I believe the ranking system in Pizza Tower is a coping mechanism that Peppino uses to avoid thinking about the trauma that’s happening to him at that moment. This next bit would be what he is thinking “I’ll be the best if I get that P Rank, nothing can stop me!) but it’s all really to get past his trauma and PTSD from the War he was in. [P.S I think he learnt he super run from the war]
Just wanted to say I love seeing my comic in this light, when I'm drawing it I can't really "feel" the characters emotions acurately enough. But watching the videos with voices and sound design I admit I got a little heartbreak from it haha. Again, thanks a lot for your work, and thanks for your nice comments about the comic! Keep crying! I love knowing that my silly scribbles have an impact on you!❤ Gros bisous!!
As someone w/ PTSD as well, I promise you are not alone Pep..... Nobody wants to feel lonely & I too feel like I end up hurt others.... But I promise you are not alone...... 💙🫂
@@eyeslanderer Well have you ever been a war? And I am not lying when it comes to PTSD, plus you don't know me fully as a person so please don't disrespect me; I'm just asking nicely
I cannot imagine what is like to have a PTSD. But as I understand, it's a living torture. I have some kind of obsession of things I hate and when I cut it off, it came back like a boomerang. I'm maybe lucky to have this and not PTSD, but I feel sad to think that people like you have to suffer of this cancer like nightmare. I cannot help you or anybody getting off of it, but I still can wish you to live a good life and not thinking that all of your action are hurtful for the others.
the sad part is i can relate to Peppino alot with the Depression Anger Issues and PTSD no matter how hard you try to run away from your fears and problems they always come back
These types of comics really make you think about what people like peppino go through, always feeling like every day is their last day, It is... undesirable for anyone, but it is good that at least there are good people like Gustavo who can help them with their problems. That is appreciated
This actually made me cry, because the things Peppino said about himself are painfully accurate to what I tell myself every day, I also get angry or anxious at the drop of a hat for no good reason unlike Peppino.
This comic explain why is pepino is a good runner he just want to get away from his trauma but no matter how fast he is hes memorry from back then(trauma) is still folowing him every where, He cant run from his trauma....
It would be cool to have an image where peppino is facing a dark version of his dead comrads who's keep calling him a coward, the one who wenhave to blame for leaving instead of fighting.
You know the worst part ? There is still ambiguity on Peppino status as a war veteran because McPig is still unsure But it is undeniable that Peps has PTSD ; assuming that Peps ISN'T a war vet ; *what the hell happened to him ???* (after all, there is OTHER sources to cause PTSD)
I nearly shed a tear. This is a comic based on a game about a fatass Italian pizza chef who fights cartoony food-based enemies to stop a giant pizza from using his super laser to destroy his restaurant. *And I nearly shed a tear.*

That is unintentional genius story telling right here.

except for noisette, according to ptg
just as a reminder: THIS CAME FROM A GAME ABOUT FIGHTING A PIZZA WITH A FACE TO STOP YOUR RESTAURANT FROM BEING SHOT WITH A DEATH LASER.
how is this so heartfelt and real in a minute and a half
It remind me of Toy story's sentence :
YOU. ARE. JUST. A. TOOYY.
@@eliottdeletraz97
You are one sad, strange little man.
I can't exactly remember what Buzz said, but I think it went something like that.
The WAR level:
Man, we don't deserve Gustavo, he's too wholesome for our actual and cruel reality
Not a single being in this world deserves Gustavo
And yet his catchphrase is literally “I’m gonna f#####g kill you!”
2:47 AM: "I am going to kill you"
@@alexthejolteon8664 yeah right.
@@Dark_Mario_Bros.that’s literally his catchphrase. Mc. Pig said, also in the demos he punched Peppino because peppino lost a pizza
Peppino is probably in his 40s, considering that his war uniform resembles a lot the uniform of the italian partisans Peppino must have fought in WW2 agaisnt the italian fascists and assisted the Ardeatine massacre in Rome commutted by the Nazis in 1944, it is from this event that Peppino got his PTSD that haunts him every night.

Well he IS a war veteran: Mc Pig hasn't said WHICH one...
that is further explained in Peppino's house
you can see military badges on the wall
This actually tugged at my heartstrings... especially the ending...
The thug hearter

Pizzelle is just too adorable.
yeah, that'll be great!! Pizzelle being a snowstorm; is that really their past? neat!
@@jazzmynecook5963 "their?" Why don't you refer him as "him?" Is he really a transfem?
No way.
@@hildamarston4077 She goes by any pronouns, so it's okie dokie lol
@@hildamarston4077 if you don't like it, you can always call Pizzelle a male.
@@jazzmynecook5963 I mean he looks like a male dude, how can he actually be an transfem person?
Has the developers confirmed this?
Peppino's PTSD was so well handled, but also so full of emotion. Some games or shows I've seen had ptsd characters, like bluey(Mackenzie?) and, ugh... Happy Tree friends (flippy) , but none have had as much emotion in it as this 😭😢🥲

Pizza Tower will be the next Kirby in terms of lore.
The 2nd to last frame of peppino sitting in the grass as the war looked to be over was so pretty and beautiful
Gustavo's that one friend who will help you at your darkest hour, no matter what
Pros of basically no ""actual"" lore:
Infinite headcanons and cool situations! Gotta love it
this is actual lore though, peppino's confirmed to be a war vet. it's not that hard to figure out since WAR is the last level of the game so it must be important
@@AnOriginalBreakfast didn't they decorfirm that on discord, though?
Iirc McPig said "I think Peppino just thinks he was in a war"
@@tuukkamatikainen3389 mcpig said he was drunk when he said that, and he went back and said that peppino is indeed a vet
@@AnOriginalBreakfast well damn, the plot thickens
@@tuukkamatikainen3389I'm sorry, but, this makes me think Peppino on dru- (joking 😭)
To be honest I believe the ranking system in Pizza Tower is a coping mechanism that Peppino uses to avoid thinking about the trauma that’s happening to him at that moment.

I like how gustavo tripping can be seen as foreshadowing for peppino nearly falling
I almost cried at the end, it was really beautiful
i actually cried (i watched this at school. everyone cried including the teacher)
@@bethannygailquimpo4920 Damn....
Crying?? I'm not crying!! My eyes are just watering!!

god, poor Peppino. I wanna hug him so bad.. his face is like, MELTING at the end too! dear lord help him..
Just a lot of sweat and tears. A lot of media does that trope. 😅
As someone w/ PTSD as well, I promise you are not alone Pep..... Nobody wants to feel lonely & I too feel like I end up hurt others.... But I promise you are not alone...... 💙🫂

it’s a comic , you have not EVER been in a war why r u lying 💀💀

@@eliottdeletraz97 Thank you kindly! I personally needed to hear that so much, you have no idea (´•̥ω•̥`) ~💛💜🤍💙🧡💚🖤❤️💗
Peppino pulled an Omori and hugged someone that is:
1. Related to his trauma.
2. A part of himself
3. In his dreams.
The super mario galaxy soundtrack, making emotional moments that much more impactful yet again
what song?
Gustavo is a true friend he really cares for peppino and he will always be there for him
Not me bawling my eyes out when Peppino started having flashbacks of the sirens and screams like oh my fuckin' god I feel so bad - 😭😭
We all need someone like Gustavo in our lives.
This is really wholesome... In every way possible... ❤
the sad part is i can relate to Peppino alot with the Depression Anger Issues and PTSD no matter how hard you try to run away from your fears and problems they always come back
I can relate to Peppino’s severe depression and anger issues too
Bringing me to the verge of tears with the funny pizza man... You know using Galaxy songs is cheating...
fun fact: canonically poeppino just imagined the entire war
Honestly, this comic works as a good prequel to New Dreams
It's beautifu-*DIES OF BEING TO EMOTIONAL* Ghost me: GOD DAMNIT WHY DO I ALWAYS KEEP DYING ON SAD THINGS
I love this so much, I relate so much to peppino on so many levels.
I never thought i'd cry to a comic dub about a funny haha italian guy's trauma you did really well man
Peppino just know that I’m here for you whenever you need it❤ I can help you s and p rank when ever you need some comfort I will provide ❤
These types of comics really make you think about what people like peppino go through, always feeling like every day is their last day, It is... undesirable for anyone, but it is good that at least there are good people like Gustavo who can help them with their problems. That is appreciated
One of the more wholesome ones.
really hit hard when the music transitioned to the mario galaxy music seemlessly
I love how little lore the real game has, it allows the community to make amazing theorys and things like this. God I love pizza tower
We all need a Gustavo in our lives
It brings me tears when Gustavo comforted Peppino. 🥹💖
Poor Peppino :(
Time to lighten up the mood you meant eppinso
This actually made me cry, because the things Peppino said about himself are painfully accurate to what I tell myself every day, I also get angry or anxious at the drop of a hat for no good reason unlike Peppino.
Crying? Im not crying, someones just..... cutting onions
