Enma Daiō is a deceased Koopa king and Bowser's ancestor in Super Mario-kun who decides to torture Mario for what he did to the Koopa Troop. He looks just like his descendant Bowser, but with black eyebrows and a pointed black beard. He also wears an ancient royal hat with「王」(king) written on it. These characteristics make him resemble Kūkai's statue of King Shokō-ō, one of Buddha's Ten Kings of Hell. On the same note, his name, and role are also a direct reference to another of the Ten Kings of Hell in Buddhism: Enma.
While fighting Larry Koopa, Mario dies and is taken to Hell, where Enma Daiō awaits him to punish him for what he did to his family and their minions. While Morton, Wendy, and the Koopa Troop's ghosts punish Mario, Enma Daiō is monitoring the torture; however, Mario's ghost always manages to escape unharmed. When Wendy makes Mario eat a bomb-chocolate, she lights the fuse. Panicked, Mario runs looking for help, while the ghosts runs away in fear. Mario then jumps on Enma Daiō, pleading to help him, but then burps an explosion on his face. Having lost his patience, Enma Daiō kicks Mario out from the afterlife, enabling him to live again.
