'''Mega Maw-Rays'''<ref>{{cite|author=Nintendo Co., Ltd.|date=circa Jan. 2025|title=New Super Mario Bros.|url=www.nintendo.com/jp/character/mario/en/history/new_smb/index.html|publisher=Mario Portal|accessdate=23 Jan. 2025}}</ref>, previously referred to as '''Mega Unagi'''<ref>{{cite|author=Loe, Casey|title=''New Super Mario Bros.''

Mega Maw-Rays are very dangerous, and they destroy many objects in their path, such as [[Brick Block|brick]]s and [[? Block]]s. There is no way to defeat a Mega Maw-Ray. However, Mario can go "through" one by using a [[Mega Mushroom]] or a [[Super Star|Starman]] and [[swim]]ming through its back; he will be pushed away if he collides with its face. In World 8-3, if Mario tries to stay above or below the Mega Unagi and let it pass, it will swim slower and move towards Mario, trying to corner him in the top or bottom of the screen. If this is unsuccessful, the Mega Maw-Ray will eventually swim forward and vanish from the screen, but it will return after about one minute. Unlike [[Cheep Chomp|Cheep-Chomp]]s, Mega Maw-Rays cannot swallow Mario whole, but they instead damage him regularly. | '''Mega Maw-Rays'''<ref>{{cite|author=Nintendo Co., Ltd.|date=circa Jan. 2025|title=New Super Mario Bros.|url=www.nintendo.com/jp/character/mario/en/history/new_smb/index.html|publisher=Mario Portal|accessdate=23 Jan. 2025}}</ref>, previously referred to as '''Mega Unagi'''<ref>{{cite|author=Loe, Casey|title=''New Super Mario Bros.''
