Chapter 1Edit
スーパーマリオワールド
Mario, Luigi, and Princess Peach go on vacation to Super Famicom Shima. Being the sole guests of the resort, they go to enjoy the beach, carrying Peach's massive luggage. Before they can get in their swimsuits, a giant dotted egg drifts to shore. Luigi takes it and prepares a pot to boil it, but the egg hatches, and a giant green dinosaur emerges from it. While the Mario Bros. hide the cutlery, the dino presents himself as Yoshi, from the nearby Yoshi's Island of the Dinosaur Land archipelago, and he explains that lately, some "evil turtles" trapped all the dinosaurs into eggs with their magic. When turned into an egg, Yoshi was standing on a cliff, so he rolled into the sea. Just then, four Koopa Troopas in sunglasses emerge from the sea, ordering Yoshi to surrender. Yoshi tries to kick a rock towards them, but the rock lands on his head and he blacks out. As the Koopas drag him, Peach knocks down her luggage, squashing the turtles.
Luigi tells everyone to run to Controller Shima, but the Koopas quickly follow them. After making them fall from the wooden bridge, the Koopas return to attack. Just then, Yoshi notices the fruits on the trees around him and starts eating them. A Koopa lunges at them, so Yoshi turns at him, with his mouth wide-open, in which the turtle lands. Because Yoshi cannot swallow the shell, Mario tells him to spit it out against the other Koopas, so Yoshi obeys his orders, defeating the Koopas. As the group celebrates their victory, a storm of Super Koopas, with Bowser and the Koopalings, swoops in and nabs Peach. Bowser challenges Mario to save her and goes back with his troops to Dinosaur Land. Yoshi tries to stop him by grabbing his foot with his elastic tongue, but Iggy turns him into an egg, and he falls in a small forest. Using a Koopa's shell as a raft, the Mario Bros. arrive on Dinosaur Land, and understand where they are after seeing Yoshi's House: they are in Yoshi's Island.
After taking care of a group of Koopas, the Marios find the egg in a ? Block. Yoshi is freed, and taking full responsibility for Peach's kidnapping, he offers to help the brothers, offering them a ride on his back. At Bowser's Castle, Bowser, the Koopalings, and the captured Peach, are observing Mario and Luigi from their cameras. After seeing how out of shape the brothers are since Super Mario Bros. 3, the Koopas leave the security room to have dinner, leaving the tied Peach alone. While the Marios are collecting power-up after power-up, Peach, through a Message Block, comunicates with them from the control room, suggesting them to stock a reserve power-up for their journey. After passing towards Monty Moles and Jumping Piranha Plants in the forest, the Marios and Yoshi starts climbing a mountain, where Yoshi gobbles a red Koopa Paratroopa, causing him to spit flames that annihilate the enemies in their path. Later, while traversing a lake, Yoshi bumps against a Pokey. Mario falls from his back and Yoshi starts running away from the pain. Mario manages to tackle him and removes the thorn in his cheeks, calming him down.
The heroes have now reached a castle. Due to the small door, Yoshi is unable to enter, so the Mario Bros. leave him outside, while they crawl inside. To surpass a lava chasm, the Marios climb on some fences, kicking and punching down any Climbing Koopa in their way. After surpassing the lava, Luigi gets squashed by a Pillar, and his flattened body flies out of the window, where it is rescued by Yoshi. Continuing alone, Mario finds the egg containing Yoshi's friend near a pool of lava, where Iggy and a floating arena appear. Avoiding Iggy's fireballs, Mario goes for the reliable stomp jump, almost falling into the lava when the platform leans in his direction, but in the end, he manages to kick Iggy in the lava. A few moments later, the castle explodes, and Mario emerges with the trapped egg. While a bridge appears to let the heroes proceed to Donut Plains, a bandaged-up Iggy returns to the base, and Bowser orders Morton to protect the next area.
While traversing a meadow, Mario stomps a Super Koopa with a glowing cape, obtaining a Feather from it, which gives him a cape. Through a Message Block, Peach explains Mario how to use it, so Mario start practicing flying, slaloming between enemies, hitting them midair, and making the earth tremble with a Ground Smash. Luigi also wants a magic cape, but every Super Koopa he stomps does not have a feather. Angry, the Super Koopas chase Luigi and Yoshi, until they come face to face with a Chargin' Chuck, who slams Yoshi down a cliff after he attempted to eat it. While Luigi cries for his death, Wendy barges in the control room after hearing Peach's voice. To avoid being caught, the princess lies and tell her she was just singing after seeing the microphone.
Alone in the underground cave, Mario manages to remove Spike Tops and Buzzy Beetles on his path, thanks to the cape twirl, but two Swoops steal it, and when Mario tries to regain it with a reserve feather, the sand tides pushing him cause him to lose it. Once outside, Mario reunites with Luigi, who just cleared the local Ghost House, causing a bridge to appear, leading them towards Morton's castle. After hearing of what happened to Yoshi, Mario promises to avenge him.
On their way to the castle, the brothers fall in an athletic stage full of lift on rails, where Mario regains the cape. Once on the ground, an unshelled Koopa runs into a Yellow Shell, turning into a flashing shell, but gets blocked by a Warp Pipe. After dealing with Goombas, Jumping Piranha Plants, and an Amazing Flyin' Hammer Brother that Luigi burns with a Fire Flower, the two find Yoshi inside another egg: apparently, thanks to the "egg ray", when Yoshi is about to die, he is enclosed into an egg and teleported into a block. That way, they can always bring him back. Hugging him from joy, Luigi accidentally pushes Yoshi against a Roulette Block, from which he gets a cape. After Yoshi finds a Blue Shell, which gives him wings, the three fly to the castle.
Yoshi's drool eventually melts the shell, and he soon loses the wings, but since he cannot enter in the castles anyway, he will catch up to them. Once at the castle's doors, Luigi sees another Message Block, but instead of tips, it is Peach's singing voice to come through. Thinking it to be a bug, Luigi opens the blocks and grabs the components. In actuality, Wendy bought Peach's lie, and invited her to join her for a singing show for her family, and the princess brought the mic with her. After climbing the Thwomp and Dry Bones-infested tower, Mario and Luigi come face to face with Morton. The Koopaling starts sprinting around the room and even on the walls and ceiling, landing on Luigi, then on Mario's cape, ripping it. In a corner, the injured Luigi keeps fidgeting with the components, making a radio out of it and, listening really well to Peach's lyrics, he discovers they are subliminal instructions on how to deal with Morton: they need to stomp him thrice. Mario follows through and Morton pops like a balloon, leaving an egg behind. Once out, Luigi and Yoshi destroy the castle by kicking it, while a passage to Vanilla Dome opens.
In the last panel, Wendy complains to Peach that she got the lyrics wrong, still unaware of her successful plan.
Chapter 2Edit
スーパーマリオワールド
Bowser is challenging Mario, Luigi, and Peach with a new adventure in Dinosaur Land, more difficult than the other games. After tossing a Pokey head at Bowser, the trio proceeds. The rest of the chapter is about short stories (separate from the Chapter 1's continuity) illustrating secrets and features of the game.
- ヨッシー のひみつの
巻 (Yoshi's secrets)
Luigi and Yoshi are in the first level, where they experiment with the new Spin Jump ability, capable of defeating tougher enemies and breaking blocks. Dizzy from spinning, Luigi trips on an egg, cracking it and releasing Yoshi, the new rideable companion capable of eating enemies with his prehensible tongue. After eating a horde of enemies charging at them, Yoshi first spits the green shell of a Koopa, then spits three flames due to the red shell of another Koopa. While Peach tries to get this cool powers by munching on a Koopa shell, Yoshi tells the reader that there are some friends of his with more powers, but it is a secret for now.
- アスレチックは
大変 だなアの巻 (Athletic courses are very hard)
While in Yoshi's Island 3, Luigi almost falls to his doom due to the tricky Stretch Blocks, saving himself by grabbing the Swing Lift. To avoid this problem, Peach asks the Stretch Blocks to not shrink under her. Flustered by her cuteness and kindness, the Stretch Blocks make a bridge for her, while Luigi is stuck on the still Swing Lift.
- スイッチの
宮殿 の巻 (The Switch Palace)
In the third level, Luigi notices the Dotted-Line Blocks, and almost falls when he tries to step on them. Peach explains that this is the area that ! Blocks will fill once a special big switch is pressed, but the switch of Yoshi's Island will appear on Kappa Mountain after destroying Iggy's Castle. Done that, the Mario Bros. go to the Yellow Switch Palace and press the switch, causing yellow ! Blocks to scatter throughout all Dinosaur Land. Thanks to the new paths created by the ! Blocks, not only they will risk less to fall into pits, but they will be able to collect more coins and extra lives. Meanwhile, Bowser is spying on the group dressed like a Pokey, and gets run over by the army of extra Marios gained with the 1-UPs.
秘密 コース超 でかキヤうの巻 (Big Ultra Secret Course)
Through the secret exit in Donut Plains 2, the group manages to reach the Green Switch Palace, and with the Green ! Blocks, they manage to reach the secret exit in Donut Plains 1, which leads to the Donut Secret 1, and through that course's secret exit, the group arrives in Donut Secret House. Scared, Yoshi stays outside, while Mario, Luigi, and Peach adventure inside. Their first obstacle is a Big Boo, but luckily for them it has the same weakness as a normal Boo, being stared at, and with a nearby trampoline it is easy to surpass. In the next room, Luigi finds a door, floating in midair. Using a Switch Block, some blocks appear underneath, but Mario also notices that a Blue Door also appeared. Entering in it, the group has found the exit and are reunited with Yoshi, much to Bowser's discontent.
空 とぶヨッシーの巻 (Flying Yoshi)
While the Marios are having fun with capes, Yoshi explains to Peach that he can also fly, and would love to show her Dinosaur Land from the sky, but he does require a Blue Shell first. Wanting to impress Peach, and motivated by a marriage promise for the first one that finds the Blue Shell, Mario and Luigi go searching for it. Luigi returns first, but after Yoshi spits flames after eating it, he reveals he just painted a Red Shell blue. Mario arrives with his own shell, and Yoshi tests it, resulting in him growing wings. Mario won the bet, but to not make Luigi sad, Peach undoes the marriage bet. In the meantime, Yoshi's drool has melted the shell, and he falls onto Mario and Luigi.
- みどりのスイッチの
宮殿 の巻 (The Green Switch Palace)
Due to his poor skills with the cape, Luigi falls and lands on a cliff wall. Seeing green Dotted-Line Blocks, Mario suggests finding the Green Switch Palace, to activate the Green ! Blocks to which Luigi can hold onto. In Donut Plains 2, Mario, Peach, and Yoshi find a pipe and enter an area watched over by a Passin' Chuck. Peach quickly set up a volleyball net, much to the Chuck's confusion, as he throws the football. Peach explains that she just cannot memorize all the rules of football, so she went for a sport they all are happy to play, espexially considering how in this game Mario can toss stuff up in the air. Thanks to this new move, the ball (which is revealed to be a Koopa Shell) hits a ? Block from which a beanstalk emerges, leading them to a hole in the ceiling with a key and a Keyhole. Mistaking it for a donut, Yoshi gulps the Key. Mario orders him to spit it out, and right when he is about to swallow it, Peach shows Yoshi a poster of Wendy, making him puke out the key in disgust. Opening the Keyhole, the group accesses and activate the Green Switch Palace, but as they return to Luigi, they discover that they just blocked him inside the pit by creating bridge of blocks.
秘密 のカギの巻 (The Secret Key)
After passing through the secret exit in Donut Plains 1, a new course appears in the middle of the Donut Plains lake. Bowser, disguised as an anthropomorphic mushroom named Kinoko no Sei, tries to trick them in not going in, but the heroes see through his obvious disguise and proceed. While Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi observe the sleeping Rip Van Fishes and pass by, Peach pokes one, waking them all up. To escape them, the group enters a pipe leading to a dry cave where Mario and Luigi play with a new power-up, the Power Balloon. After deflating his friends, Peach suggest continuing their path. Back in the lake, Mario finds a Keyhole, and Luigi notices a ? Block surrounded by empty ones, proposing that a Switch Block might let them hit the block by turning the empty ones into coins. Yoshi finds the switch and in the block they find the key. While Kinoko no Sei reached them and insists in continuing through the regular exit, Mario opens the keyhole, reaching the Donut Secret House, and from there Donut Secret 2, which is located near the Valley of Bowser, from where they can see the last castles. Furious, Bowser drops the costume and yells them to continue and to stop being mesmerized by the view.
氷 の世界 の巻 (The Ice World)
In Donut Secret 2, the heroes are slipping all over the place. During this, Peach bumps onto a Coin Block, spilling coins all over. The group collects them into money bags, but then Peach notices that the next part of the course is a long patch of Munchers. Seeing Yoshi stomping unharmed on the Spike Tops, Mario asks him if his boots make him immune to spiked floors. Yoshi confirms it and carries the three and the heavy money bag over the Munchers. Then, a storm of eight Koopa Paratroopas blocks their path over a pit, but Mario stomps them out of their way. Next, it is the others' time to jump over the pit, but they slip and fall, losing all the coins. Luigi, with a reserve Power Balloon, saves them all, and they all reach the finish line, much to Bowser's anger.

Mototin's Picture DiaryEdit
モトちんのスーパーファミコン
- With his manager Hirayama and his colleague Jūbewari, Mototin (Motoyama's avatar) comes to Kyoto to see the presentation of the new Super Famicom. After that, the trio has lunch and buys a souvenir each, but they have no time to see the city and directly return to Tokyo.
- When he finished Super Mario Bros., Mototin took a commemorative photo; due to school, he did not spend as much time with Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels and even got tired of it; with Super Mario Bros. 3 he would always reach Game Over in Dark Land's first levels. Therefore, his own boss at Kodansha, Kawano Meijin, will be playing and recording Super Mario World for him so he can focus on drawing the story.
