Super Mario-kun (stylised as SUPER MARIO KUN in Super Mario Maker) is a Japanese-published Super Mario manga series written by Yukio Sawada and published by Shogakukan. The manga has been serialized monthly in CoroCoro Comic since November 1990 with the first tankōbon released in July 1991. They contain many of the characters and scenarios retellings of various Super Mario games, including Super Mario World and Paper Mario. Some events in the books do not happen in games.

The series is aimed at children, and it features different twists on the stories. It contains some crude humor, puns, breaking the fourth wall, nudity, and slapstick violence. There are also a few puzzles (such as mazes and objects hidden in scenes) to be solved throughout the installments.

Starting in August 2014, the Super Mario-kun series has been released for the "Bookstore Anywhere" application on Nintendo 3DS in Japan. The series has been released in bundles of ten volumes up to volume 57, and are available for ¥4,400 each. The first set containing volumes one through ten was released on August 27, 2014 the second set on September 24, the third on October 29, and the fourth on November 26.[1]

In December 2014, Soleil Productions began to publish a French localization of the series in its Soleil Manga collection, titled Super Mario: Manga Adventures.[2] A Spanish translation by Planeta DeAgostini under the name Super Mario Aventuras has started to be released since late November 2016.[3]

A "best of" collection titled Super Mario Manga Mania was compiled in September 2017,[4] which was later translated to English by VIZ Media and released on December 8, 2020.[5][6] Another best-of collection was released in April 2023 in the form of Super Mario-kun Special Selection, starting with a remake of the first ever chapter of the manga series.[7]

To celebrate the manga series' 25th anniversary, Mario's Super Mario-kun design was added as a Costume Mario in Super Mario Maker. The costume is unlocked by clearing the "SUPER MARIO KUN 25th Anniversary" Event Course.

Volumes[edit]

Below are the covers of all of the volumes, up to the most recent. Some of this information is speculated, due to a limited amount of information about these comics in regions other than Japan.

7 First part of the Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins arc: Mario returns to Mario Land, only to discover that his old friend Wario has conquered it. Helped by a Carrot, he goes to find the six Golden Coins and free each region from Wario's influence. Mario and Carrot go through the Tree Zone and defeat the Big Bird guarding one of the Golden Coins. As Yoshi sends Mario gifts for liberating Dinosaur Land, they are soon joined by Yokkī, a sentient Yoshi Cookie. They then travel through the Turtle Zone, where they are helped by friendly Goombas and defeat the octopus. Following this, they go through the Mario Zone, facing off against the zone himself (rigged by Wario) and the Three Little Pigheads. They then go through the Macro Zone where they defeat the sewer rat with the help of a collector.

There are also two one-off stories: In one, Peach and Bowser's Minions, under her orders, hatch a plan to make Mario lose weight. In the other story, Mario and Yoshi try to save the Yoshis from a curse by adventuring through an RPG-style adventure.

8 Super Mario Bros. 2 arc, which takes place after the first half of Volume 6's events and before Volume 4's: Wart takes over Subcon and, after kidnapping them from Bowser's Castle, challenges Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, and Birdo to rescue the land. The four heroes travel through the worlds of Subcon, defeating Mouser, Tryclyde, Fryguy, and Clawgrip along the way. Birdo dies trying to protect Yoshi, but is quickly replaced with Toad. The final battle against Wart proves itself to be very difficult, as Wart is not sensitive to vegetables anymore and has the ability to molt. Eventually, Wart is defeated through the combined efforts of Mario, Luigi, Peach, Toad, Bowser, Birdo's sisters, Baby Yoshis, and Yoshi's hunger, but Bowser kidnaps Princess Peach again and the Mario Bros. return to Dinosaur Land to rescue her.

Second part of the Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins arc: Mario, Carrot, and Yokkī go through the Pumpkin Zone and, guided by a friendly Boo, defeat the Witch.

There are also two one-off stories: an anticipation of Mario & Wario, in which Wario uses buckets to make Mario, Yoshi, and Peach lose themselves in a forest, and another one based on Yoshi's Safari, in which Yoshi defeats enemies with his bazooka.

9 Yoshi's Safari arc: Mario, wanting to retire, is forced to join yet another adventure to stop the chaos afflicting the world by finding the three Crystal Mushrooms. Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, and Birdo (reincarnated as a fairy) adventure through Dinosaur Land, fighting stronger versions of past enemies and finally finding the first Crystal Mushroom in the ruins of Bowser's old castle. After accidentally drifting off to another land, the heroes encounter Bowser who possesses the second Crystal Mushroom and steals the protagonists' as well. The next step in the journey is Jewelry Land, which has been turned into a mechanical land by Bowser. Using the Super Scope, Mario and Yoshi, the only characters to be unaffected by the mechanical virus, face Ludwig, King Blooper, and finally Mecha Bowser himself. They recover the three Crystal Mushrooms and undo the curse on the world, revealing the Super Scope to be a transformed Prince Pine. Later, Bowser tries to get revenge on the heroes by trapping them in the Mario Bros. stage against the Mecha Nokonoko.

First part of the Mario & Wario arc: While Peach is still under Bowser's guard, Wario throws a bucket on her head, revealing to Bowser that Luigi possesses the key to take it off. Bowser rushes to Mario's home at Yoshi's Island, only to learn that Mario himself has had a bucket thrown on him by Wario and that Luigi has been out for a walk. The fairy Wanda appears to help the heroes in their quest to find Luigi, but due to an unfortunate incident, she ends up being merged with Bowser. Mario, Yoshi, Bowser, and Wanda go through the Forest of Fairies and manage to take the bucket off Mario's head after it turned into an enemy. They then go through the Yoshi Lake, where they battle a monster made of eggshells dropped by Wario.

Third part of the Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins arc: Mario, Carrot, and Yokkī are robbed of their five Golden Coins by Tatanga and chase him to the Space Zone, with the help of the Hippo statue. However, they are defeated in battle and fall back to Earth, but Bowser, disguised as Santa Claus, defeats Tatanga and gives Mario all six Golden Coins as a Christmas gift.

The volume concludes with a one-off story in which Wario and a Goomba go treasure hunting underwater.

Fourth part of the Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins arc: Mario, Carrot, and Yokkī, with the help of the Golden Coins power, defeat Wario, shrinking him into Mini Wario form, and shoo him away from Mario Land.

In a bonus story based on Yoshi's Safari, Mario is trapped by Roy in a flipper in the form of a ball, while Yoshi tries to help him get through it.

First part of the Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3 arc: Mario, Yoshi meet Chirako, whose island has been taken by Wario. While they head to stop him, Wario tries to freeze them with Tetris blocks. Once they arrive at the island, they discover the townsfolk and Wario tied up: the Brown Sugar Pirates trapped them after stopping by. The pirates attack Mario and Yoshi and, during the fight, Wario gets free and helps the heroes fight the pirates, deciding then to join forces to stop the pirates and steal their treasure: a giant golden statue of Peach.

A special chapter based on Super Mario All-Stars concludes the volume: Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi save Peach from Bowser, Wart, and Wario, who force the heroes to pass through their deadly puzzles.
