'''Enma Daiō''' is a deceased [[Koopa (species)|Koopa]] king and [[Bowser]]'s ancestor in ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'' who decides to torture [[Mario]] for what he did to [[Bowser's Minions]]. He looks just like his descendant, but with black eyebrows and a pointed black beard. He also wears an ancient royal hat with「王」(king) written on it. These characteristics make him resemble {{wp|Kūkai}}'s statue of King Shokō-ō, one of Buddha's [https://www.onmarkproductions.com/html/sai-no-kawara.html#10kings Ten Kings of Hell]. On the same note, his name and role are also a direct reference to another of the Ten Kings of Hell in Buddhism: {{wp|Yama (Buddhism)|Enma}}.

While fighting [[Larry|Larry Koopa]], Mario dies and is taken to [[Hell]], where Enma Daiō awaits him to punish him for what he did to his family and their minions. While [[Morton]], [[Wendy]], and the minions's ghosts punish Mario, Enma Daiō is monitoring the torture; however, Mario's ghost always manages to escape unharmed. When Wendy makes Mario eat a bomb-chocolate, she lights the fuse on. Panicked, Mario runs looking for help, while the ghosts run away in fear. Mario then jumps on Enma Daiō, pleading to help him, but then burps an explosion on his face. Having lost his patience, Enma Daiō kicks Mario out from the afterlife, enabling him to live again.
