| |
| The '''Angry Sun''', or simply '''Sun''', is a small evil sun that first appeared in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. In most appearances, it looks similar to an actual sun, but it is only slightly bigger than [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] and often has a furious-looking expression.
| |
|
| |
|
| ==History==
| | The Angry Sun appeared in Super Mario Bros. 3 In the Desert World. It stayed in the sky of the level until Mario had jumped over the tornado in the middle. It would then move in a U shape across the screen to try and hit Mario. It could be destroyed with a koopa shell. |

| |
| The Angry Sun appears in two levels of ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. It first appears in {{world-link|2|desert|World 2-Desert}} of [[Desert Land]], and again in [[World 8-2 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|World 8-2]] of [[Dark Land]]. To attack Mario, the Angry Sun swoops down at him in a U-shaped arch. The Angry Sun can be destroyed by a [[Koopa Troopa|Koopa]] [[Shell]], or with [[hammer]]s from the [[Hammer Suit]]. In World 8-2, the Angry Sun can also be bypassed by taking either of the secret Warp Pipes near the beginning of the level. | |

| |
| | |
| ====''Super Mario Maker 2''====
| |
| The Angry Sun reappears as an enemy that can be placed in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]''. The Angry Sun now flies on a longer path than usual due to it now being on a 16:9 screen as opposed to 4:3. At night, it is replaced by a [[Moon (Super Mario Maker 2)|Moon]] that flies in the same path, but defeats all enemies on screen when touched. In the ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' style, its design instead resembles ancient Mesoamerican artwork (similar to the [[Sun]] from ''[[Paper Mario]]''), and has a neutral expression with faint red angry eyebrows. While the text calls it "Angry Sun" in the Enemy section, they are generically called "Sun" by the voice when placed.
| |
| | |
| The Angry Sun can be defeated by thrown items (such as [[POW Block]]s and [[Koopa Troopa]] shells), [[Bowser Jr.]] spinning in his shell, [[Invincible Mario]], [[Spike Ball]]s and [[Snowball]]s, and the Big [[Goomba's Shoe]]'s shockwaves when stomping.
| |
| | |
| ===''The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3''===
| |
| [[File:SMB3 Show Angry Sun.png|thumb|The Angry Sun, along with [[Raccoon Mario]] and Raccoon Luigi, in ''The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3'' episode "[[Sneaky Lying Cheating Giant Ninja Koopas]]".]]
| |
| The Angry Sun also appears in ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', starting with the episode "[[Sneaky Lying Cheating Giant Ninja Koopas]]". During the episode, the Angry Sun, offended by [[Mario]]'s statement that "the sun was in his eyes", appears to attack [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] after they exit a [[Warp Pipe|Warp Tube]] from [[Prince Hugo]]'s castle; after several minutes of fleeing the Angry Sun, Mario and Luigi manage to gain a [[Super Leaf]] and transform into [[Raccoon Mario]] and Raccoon Luigi. With their new powers, Mario and Luigi begin to fly away from the Angry Sun, who catches up to them and is unaware that they are still Mario and Luigi. It asks the two "flying raccoons" if they saw where Mario and Luigi went; Mario responds to the Angry Sun's question by saying that they went to hide behind a cloud, which the Angry Sun hastily flies to.
| |
| | |
| The Angry Sun makes a minor appearance as part of the [[Desert Land]] background in the later episodes "[[Do the Koopa]]" and "[[Crimes R Us]]"; in the former, it is depicted as white and shown dancing with a pyramid and a sphinx due to the [[Doom Dancer Music Box]], grinning for the first time. The scene of Mario and Luigi avoiding the sun's attack also appears in the show’s end credits.
| |
| | |
| ===''Mario Kart'' series===
| |
| [[File:MKDSAngrySun.png|thumb|left|The Angry Sun in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'']]
| |
| The Angry Sun appears in the [[DS Desert Hills|Desert Hills]] course of ''[[Mario Kart DS]]'', where it shoots [[Fire Snake]]s onto the course. As Desert Hills returns in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', the Angry Sun reprises its role. Angry Sun sprites from ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' are also printed on some carpets in [[3DS Shy Guy Bazaar|Shy Guy Bazaar]] in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'', and in [[Bone-Dry Dunes]] from ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''.
| |
| | |
| ===''Paper Mario'' series===
| |
| ====''Paper Mario: Color Splash''====
| |
| While the Angry Sun does not appear physically in ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]'', it is referenced twice, first by one of the [[Five Fun Guys]] at [[Bloo Bay Beach]]. When Mario pulls out the Toad hiding in the sand, he talks about getting a sunburn and comments, "The sun sure is angry today! You know a thing or two about the Angry Sun, don't ya?"
| |
| | |
| In [[Roshambo Temple]] #6, while introducing [[Green Pokey]] as an opponent, the announcer says, "Wearing an armor of sun-kissed spikes, he stalks through the sands with the Angry Sun at his back."
| |
| | |
| ====''Paper Mario: The Origami King''====
| |
| Like in ''Paper Mario: Color Splash'', even though the Angry Sun does not appear in ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'', it is referenced. Upon reaching [[Scorching Sandpaper Desert]], where the sun is missing from the sky, [[Olivia]] remarks "Do you think the sun is hiding because it's angry about something?"

| ''It appears on the desert surface in Worlds 2 and 8 of Mario World. At first, it pretends to be in the background, lighting up the ground. However, as soon as Mario gets close to it, it chases after him with an ogre-like expression on its face.''

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *In the premade world for the Super Mario Mash-up in ''[[Minecraft]]'', pixel art of an Angry Sun appears in the desert.
| |
| *[[List of Super Mario Maker pre-release and unused content#Unused palette graphics|Unused files]] hint that the Angry Sun was at one point going to appear in the first ''[[Super Mario Maker]]''.
| |
| *The Mesoamerican design of the Angry Sun in the ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' theme in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'' may have been derived from depictions of the Aztec god {{wp|Tōnatiuh}}, or the Incan god {{wp|Inti}}.
