the background was clearly drawn with the idea they'd be going down but the chink animators couldn't tell

Wrong. By that logic, the stairs would be going down.
Thise tower keep stairs were designed to always go up clockwise, so that an invader(climber)'s sword arm(right) was closest to the wall, not giving him space to swing.

Its purposely drawn with an ambiguous perspective so the animators can re-use this back drop if Mario needs to be animated going either direction up/down the stairs.

It seems like they drew the stairs this way because they didn't know which way it was going to be animated on top of it.

But defenders also have their sword arm(right) to a wall because it's a fucking cylindrical space so what the fuck are you saying?

Imagine you're climbing the stairs and trying to swing with your right arm. The wall is right there, you can't slash around it.
But if you're at the higher steps facing an enemy coming from below, you have the wider space of the external wall to swing and pierce from.

Judging by the window, I'd say upwards.

Every article I've read that tries to debunk it goes into pointless tangents like "castle sieges almost never happened anyway" and fail to present evidence on why it wouldn't be real.
The fact is that the majority of those structres were made with clockwise stairs, and considering that they buildings made to give defenders advantage, it's not hard to imagine this did cross the original architect's minds while designing them. There is no tangible proof in favor or against it, it just makes perfect sense.

well do you have any evidence? it's cute but are there statistics proving this is actually a common design? Are all castle spirals clockwise? Is there historical writings which name this technique? in sieges don't people go to the top of the castle anyways, meaning the invader won't always be coming from the bottom

70% of stairs in the UK are clockwise.
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/279496087_The_spiral_stair_or_vice_Its_origins_role_and_meaning_in_medieval_stone_castles

This article was linked on a page that was trying to debunk the idea.
It's very clear that stairs were designed to be fought inside of, even if such events did not occur often. Suppposedly, it's also common for these tower stairs to also have irregular step lengths and heights, which can only be explained as a defensive measure.

This sort of engineering is not exclusive to Europeans castles. On Japanese castles, they made the floor loud and cranky on purpose, so nobody could possibly sneak around inside of it.

the bricks give a horizontal axis so they're going up counter clockwise.

My carefully constructed and researched argument, completely disassembled by the fact that Mario is indeed a fictional characters in a fictional universe. How could this have happened to me?

>>713242093
To fight inside a castle, you'd probably favor the use of very small blades or maybe even blunt weapons. Those stairs are very small. But either way, the space helps on the way down.

exposure setting on the camera way too high. direct sunlight coming in the window. To get that level of blue on white dress you need a source of blue light with the lighting conditions in that room it clearly doesn't exist in this picture. Plus there is not single retail store in existence that lights their floor with blue lights. I am actually convinced the people that see white and gold are mentally retarded.

True, I suppose. If you're inside an actual medieval castle that's under siege, and the enemy has broken through the walls and you're fighting inside the stairs, shit's already hopeless either way. You WILL die.
