'''Nankin'''<ref>{{file link|KC Mario original characters.jpg}}</ref> is an original character that appears in the ''[[Super Mario Land (manga)|Super Mario Land]]'' manga adaptation in the ''[[Super Mario (Kodansha manga)|Super Mario]]'' series from KC Deluxe. He is the student of [[Chai Kingdom]]'s {{wp|daoshi}} [[Dousi]] and lives in his temple. He is a short child with a shaved head, except for a braided ponytail.
'''Nankin-kun''', also called '''Nan-chan''', is an original character that appears in the ''[[Super Mario Land (manga)|Super Mario Land]]'' manga adaptation in the ''[[Super Mario (Kodansha manga)|Super Mario]]'' series from KC Deluxe. He is the student of [[Chai Kingdom]]'s [[Nan-chan Dōshi|Dōshi]] and lives in his temple. He is a short and young kid with shaved head, except for a braided ponytail.


When [[Mario]] and [[Mecha Kuribō (character)|Mecha Kuribō]] are chased by a pack of [[Pionpi]], Nan-chan calls for them to hide in a bush with him, making the Pionpi jump over the bush and straight into a pit. Nankin then presents himself and takes them to his master in the temple, where a magic seal prevents the Pionpi from entering. When Dousi suggests using the [[Sky Pop]], Nankin explains that his master used to be a pilot, then, with the daoshi's daughter [[Minmei]] and Mecha Kuribō, gets the idea of using a new seal to make their way to the plane hangar. When Mecha Kuribō then goes alone in a room to fabricate the seal with some of Minmei's food, Nankin and Mario question why a robot would need food, but they immediately stop thinking about it.

Nan-chan then presents himself and takes them to the temple, to his master, where a magic seal prevents the Pionpi from entering. When the Dōshi suggest using the [[Sky Pop]] and stopping Mario from rushing to the plane, not deeming it, ready for it, Nankin explains that his master used to be a pilot, then, with the Dōshi's daughter [[Minmei]] and Mekakuribō gets the idea of using a new seal to make their way to the plane hangar. When Mekakuribō then goes alone in a room to fabricate the seal, with some of Minmei's food, Nan-chan and Mario question why a robot would need food, but they immediately stop thinking about it.


Later, a [[Goombo]] knocks at the temple's door, asking for shelter from the Pionpi. Nankin removes the seal, which was used as a door latch, and welcomes the Goombo in, but it takes the seal and destroys it, letting the Pionpi inside. Minmei and Nankin are the first ones to succumb to the Pionpi's bite, turning themselves into Pionpi as well and managing to infect Dousi.

After Mario defeats [[Tatanga]], the Pionpi curse is lifted and Nankin and the others return to normal.

In the [[Super Mario Land 2 (manga)|next volume]], Nankin makes a brief cameo as the shop owner from whom Peach buys the mirror in [[Toad Town]].
 
In ''[[Super Mario Land 4]]'', the Pionpi fought in [[China]] summons {{wp|bicycle infantry}} a few times: the children riding the bikes have the appearance of Nankin.
