'''Nankin''' | '''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 child with a shaved head, except for a braided ponytail. | ||
When [[Mario]] and [[ | When [[Mario]] and [[Mekakuribō]] 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. Nan-chan then presents himself and takes them to his master in the temple, where a magic seal prevents the Pionpi from entering. When the Dōshi suggests using the [[Sky Pop]], 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.
