Super Mario-kun Volume 5
This article is under construction. Therefore, please excuse its informal appearance while it is being worked on. We hope to have it completed as soon as possible.
Super Mario-kun Volume 5 is the fifth volume of the manga series. It continues the Super Mario World story arc, whose main storyline ended in the previous volume, but some chapters contain elements from Yoshi, Mario Paint, and Super Mario Bros. 3. In this part, Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi encounter many of the Super Mario World enemies that did not appear in the previous volumes (including the boss Lemmy), while Bowser has just reconstructed his destroyed castle. In the last chapter, the trio properly explores the Star World. This is the first volume without any 4-komas.

Stage One
モンスターテレサ出現！！ 恐怖の館を脱出せよ！！ (Monster Boos Appear!! Escape the Museum of Terror!!)
While Mario, Luigi and Yoshi are having a stroll, a storm arrives and, while eating a Spike Top, Yoshi is struck by lightning thanks to the Spike Top's spike, acting like a lightning rod, and the three take shelter in a Ghost House. Inside, Yoshi gets immediately almost eaten by an Eerie. After saving him, the trio is approached by a circle of five Boo Buddies. Yoshi is not scared, since Boos are known for their sight fear, but the Boo Buddies are braver than their solitary cousins. The Boo leader proclaims that his band is the strongest and most powerful band of Boos that ever exists, and to show this, the Boo transforms into different things, a Boo Block and into a cat.
Mario tries to trick him and asks him to turn into a triangle, and the Boo does that, then Mario asks him to turn into a poo, and the Boo does that, realizing too late to have been made fun of. The Boo leader orders his gang to make them pay, and the four Boos become Boo version of horror characters (Frankenstein's Monster, Jason Voorhees, a zombie and a mummy). Mario tries to attack them with a fireball, but it gets scared by the Monster Boos' faces, going back into Mario's hand, burning Mario and his friends.
The Frankenstein Boo then grabs Mario and the Jason Boo tries to chop him with a cleaver, but misses Mario and accidentally impale the other Boo's head. Mario escapes their grip and, with Luigi and Yoshi, runs from the Boos. The trio comes across a faceless Boo, but Mario doodles a funny face on him, then the Mummy Boo blocks their path, but Mario pulls his bandages, making him spin like a dreidel. When the rest of the Boo Buddies arrive, another pale and round being arrives, but, much to Mario's relief, it's Kirby, who inhales all the Boos, then, realizing he just ate ghosts, runs away in fear.
About to leave the Ghost House, the trio is attacked by the Zombie Boo, who escaped Kirby's inhalation. The Boo possess the Ghost House's floor tiles and tries to squash Mario. Yoshi lays an egg with a lightning bolt inside, thanks to the Spike Top of the beginning. On Luigi's suggestion, Mario strikes the bolt with a fireball, making it explode, making the Ghost House and the Boo possessing it blow up.
Stage Two
スターヨッシー誕生！！ 異常気象を吹き飛ばせ！！ (Star Yoshi's Birth!! Brush off all the Strange Weather!!)
Yoshi, Mario and Luigi are having fun with Yoshi's Eggs. In one of them, the three find a TV. On the screen, a Koopa Troopa is doing the weather forecast: apparently, today Goombas, Boos, Piranha Plants and Bloopers will rain from the sky. The trio laughs at this, but soon the four aforementioned species start to actually rain. Luigi tries to defeat the falling Goombas, but he's not successful and gets pounded.
Yoshi, reading the Yoshi's game manual, gives Mario three plates on which to place the enemies, but Mario can't hold up the weight of all of them and falls to the ground, squashed by them. With only Yoshi left, he starts to eat the Goombas, the Piranha Plants and the Bloopers, but the Boos pound him in Block form, then, helped by the other enemies, they trap Yoshi in two egg's shells. Mario tries to do something, but the egg comes to life and, in Pac-Man style, eats all the enemies and becomes big.
Looking at the sky, the Mario Bros. notice Lakitu, the responsible for the enemy rain, laughing at Yoshi's death, but the egg cracks and a giant Yoshi, called Star Yoshi, followed by a Star, comes out from it. Star Yoshi eats Lakitu along with his Cloud. The battle is won, but Lakitu gets the last laugh: from inside Yoshi's belly, he creates a lightning bolt that shrinks him into Baby form.
