#i say short-ish cause warp pipes can actually travel pretty dang far instantaneously i think

[delightfuldevin]

Here comes a somewhat highly contested subject (for me specifically jdbcjds)

I interpret the Sprixie Kingdom as being in a separate dimension from the Mushroom Kingdom because of the way the intro scene of 3D World as well as the credits shows everyone traveling through some kind of sparkly pink expanse to get there. I think the “pink void” is the area that warp pipes travel through before coming out the other side (so like a pocket dimension). But that doesn’t mean the Sprixie Kingdom can’t be in it’s own dimension as well.

I am gonna keep that as a headcanon, but I guess I just feel somewhat insecure about it since a lot of people say the clear pipe just took them to another part of the already existing world. I think most warp pipes don’t travel through the pink void. They’re instantaneous, like opening a door; you go in and come right out without much time having passed. But maybe some do, if it travels a reeeeally far distance, like across oceans. Basically, short-ish distances are instantaneous and really long distances will take several seconds or minutes as you go through the pink void.
