Viokun[1] is a character that appears in the Super Mario Land 4 volume of the KC Deluxe manga series. It was originally a homemade chocolate that Princess Peach made for Mario for Valentine's Day, but after crossing the time portal created by the Time Machine Robo, it turned into an anthropomorphic chocolate-brown foot with pink human limbs, a face, sunglasses, and a white headband. Alongside this form, the self-proclaimed Viokun is also able to shapeshift into whatever it wants.
When it first forms, Viokun turns into a face to show off its new powers, disgusting Torino Daiō so much that Mario and Peach are able to escape his clutches. Later, when approaching Ultra Crusher to retrieve the kidnapped Āreku Taichō, Mario sends Viokun disguised as him. Ultra Crusher falls for the trick, blowing "Mario" in pieces as he gets near the fake Āreku, but while the real Mario opens fire from the SolarStriker, surprising the boss. Right after the boss defeat, Viokun's pieces regroup together, unharmed. Later on, after a Blazer creates a hole on the side of the ship, the pressurization, sucks out the SolarStriker's occupants, but Viokun is able to use its body to plug the hole, saving only Mario. When the dispersed crew is found, the group get down to Reticulon's surface to finish Torino Daiō. To contrast Torino Daiō's armor, Viokun turns into a lighsaber, but it first requires some fire to be able to be effective. After burning him using Peach's flaming rage, Mario uses Viokun to defeat Torino Daiō. Despite the fire, Viokun is completely unharmed by it, and it is seen in the final panel celebrating at the picnic with the other protagonists.
