“Ack! It's so dark in here... Why does everyone seem to like this place so much? Can you turn on the lights, Mario? Otherwise it'll be dark all the way through this place.”

—Olivia,Paper Mario: The Origami King

Graffiti Underground is a location inPaper Mario: The Origami King, an underground sewer area with graffiti and a valve controlling the drain. It is used to reachPeach's Castle fromToad Town, and is accessed via theManhole Hook.Folded SoldierSwoops andScaredy Rats are introduced here. There are also a few areas throughout the sewer whereMario must hit a red button to light up the area.

Layout

Graffiti Underground is a small, simple area. Once Mario has acquired theManhole Hook from aShy Guy inToad Town, he can pop open the sewer lid and travel through the sewer to reachPeach's Castle as an alternative to crossing the regular bridge, which is now broken. Right after Mario descends the ladder, Olivia asks him to hit a nearby button to light up the place, revealing a drawing of Mario andPrincess Peach on the wall. To the left of the ladder is aNot-Bottomless Hole in the wall. To the right isa yellow Toad with glasses huddled in the corner. When he notices Mario and Olivia, he gets up and introduces himself as curator of theMusée Champignon, which can now be accessed.

At the start of the next area is another button Mario must hit to light it up, revealing origamiSwoops on the ceiling, which drop down unexpectedly on Mario. After a Not-Bottomless Hole, there is a set of stairs leading down to aHeart and the entrance to the next area, where there is another button and a? Block containing aSuper Mushroom, guarded by origamiScaredy Rats. As Mario starts to advance through this section, he is stopped by Scaredy Rats coming out of the wall and Swoops coming in from the left, forcing him to battle. He can then move through to the next area.

The next area has yet another button Mario can hit to light it up, revealing a swarm of origami Swoops and a small pool of water in front of the pipe leading up to Peach's Castle. To reach it, Mario must climb down a ladder and use the1,000-Fold Arms to pull the valve, effectively draining out the pool. Mario can then access the pipe as well as theCoins and treasure chest in the drained pool, where he can find a collectible treasure. To the right of all this is a separate section with a crate floating in the water, guarded by two origami Scaredy Rats. Mario must defeat them and break open the crate to reveal aToad, who tries to thank him before floating down a tunnel.

If the player returns to the Graffiti Underground after clearing more of the game, more and more graffiti is added; the full set of pictures depicts Bowser attacking and defeating Mario, Luigi, and the Toads, only for Princess Peach to defeat him with her parasol.
