The Angry Sun.

An Angry Sun (sometimes referred to as The Angry Sun singularly) is a small, evil sun that first appeared in Super Mario Bros. 3. Like other small suns and the Star species, an Angry Sun is not the gigantic heavenly body that Mushroom World orbits. In fact, an Angry Sun is merely the same size as Mario.

Two Angry Suns appear in Super Mario Bros. 3. The first sun appears in the unnamed desert level between World 2-3 and World 2-4. The second one is located in World 8-2, in the heart of the Koopa Kingdom, Dark Land. To attack Mario, an Angry Sun would swoop down in a U-shaped arch, attempting to hit the plumber. An Angry Sun can be destroyed with a simple Koopa shell or with hammers from the Hammer Suit.

An Angry Sun appears in Mario Kart DS. The Angry Sun resides in the Desert Hills course, where it shoots fireballs at drivers.

An Angry Sun, along with Raccoon Mario and Raccoon Luigi, from The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3.

An Angry Sun also appeared in The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3, starting with the episode "Sneaky Lying Cheating Giant Ninja Koopas". In "Sneaky Lying Cheating Giant Ninja Koopas", the Angry Sun, offended by Mario's statement that "the sun was in his eyes", appears to attack Mario and Luigi after they exit a Warp Tube from Prince Hugo the Huge's castle; after several minutes of fleeing the Angry Sun, Mario and Luigi manage to gain a Super Leaf and transform into Raccoon Mario and Raccoon Luigi. With their new powers, Mario and Luigi begin to fly away from the Angry Sun, who catches up to them and asks the two "flying raccoons" if they saw where Mario and Luigi went; Mario and Luigi respond to the Angry Sun's question by saying that they went to hide behind a cloud, which the Angry Sun hastily flies to.

An Angry Sun also made a minor appearance in a later episode of The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3; "Do the Koopa".
