Super Mario Bros. 4: Super Mario World 8 would have been the eight volume of the Super Mario World arc of the Super Mario manga series by Kodansha, but it never came to be due to some undisclosed copyright issues.
The featured story arc, known among fans as "Mario Olympics", is based after the 1992 Summer Olympics.
The chapters were probably originally serialized in Comic BomBom from June to September 1992.
Plot[edit]
The Mushroom Kingdom, Sarasaland, the Golf Kingdom, Dinosaur Land, and the Koopa Empire compete in the Olympic Games.
Various scenes include Magikoopa trying to win the track & field competition with his teleportation magic, only to run out of Magic Points and be trampled by the other runners; Peach and Daisy training for the judo tournament, the former by imitating a manga by rolling Mario acting as a boulder off a set of stair, while the former watches martial arts movies to copy their moves; and the Dinosaur Land team excelling at soccer thanks to the juggling Dolphins and Wiggler's feet.
The story introduces Otaku-chan as a character, and marks the debut of Kinoppe as a side image.
