'''Obā-chan''' is [[Princess Peach]]'s biological grandmother that appeared in chapter 12 of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'' [[Super Mario-kun Volume 13|Volume 13]].

In the last story arc of the Volume, "Princess Peach" has organized a race and one of its prizes is her hand in marriage. Interested in it, [[Mario]] (with [[Luigi]] and [[Yoshi]], interested in the other prizes), [[Bowser]], and [[Wario]] participate in the race.

After a long battle, Bowser comes out victorious and, out of character for her, Peach even jumps in his arms and gladly accepts to take him as his spouse, much to Mario's horror. As a fight starts between Mario and Bower, Yoshi notices that Peach has her skin stretched and pulled by pins to hide her wrinkles, and she even loses a denture. When Mario and Bowser notice it, the real Peach arrives and reveals she did not organize the race: her 100-year-old and widow grandmother did under her name with the intention of finding herself a new husband.

With this reveal, Bowser is now stuck with a centenary fiancée, while her elder friends are about to use her same plan to find a new husband, prompting Mario and the others to run.

It is unknown if Obā-chan is Peach's paternal or maternal grandmother, with the only hint being that the [[Mushroom King]] (Peach's father) sponsored the race, meaning he might have known of her plan and supported it.
