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 8 is the eighth volume of the manga series. It contains a one-shot Super Mario Bros. 2 story arc (which takes places after the sixth chapter of volume 6) and the second part of the Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins story arc, in which Mario, Carrot, and Yoshiki enter the Pumpkin Zone and Casino.
The last two chapters are anticipations of the next two story arcs: Mario & Wario and Yoshi's Safari.
Just like in the last three volumes, this volume contains no 4-komas.

Stage One
マムーからの招待状!! サブコン世界突入!! (Wart's invitation!! Entering the Subcon Kingdom!!)
After having dealt with Mouser and the Phanto (from volume 6 chapter 6), Mario, Luigi, Yoshi and the new party member Birdo take a break in Bowser's Castle. Mario falls asleep and has a nightmare in which he is by his friends turned into monsters, before getting eaten by a big worm. Mario wakes up into Birdo's snout and his screams wake his friends up, which reveals to not have had nightmares too. Birdo recognizes this as the work of one of her boss' minions: Pidgit. In fact, a Pidgit appears, holding a message from the King of Nightmares himself, Wart: he has invited Mario and his friends to Subcon, but Mario refuses, not having the time to, and kicks Pidgit down from his Flying Carpet. Angry, Pidgit orders the carpet to kidnap them and creates a portal to Subcon, disappearing with the heroes. Bowser is informed of the disappearance of Mario and his gang and laughs, but Princess Peach starts crying and whining, trowing everything at Bowser and his minions.
Mario, Luigi, Yoshi and Birdo are (quite literally) dropped on a Subcon hill. Behind the hill, the giant head of Wart appears, challenging them to defeat the rest of his troop, save the Subcons and get out of there alive. Mario accepts, tossing Yoshi towards Wart, which is revealed to be a cardboard cutout. Pidgit disappears and an army of Snifits arrives. The Snifits attacks them and Birdo suggest Mario to use the Subcon vegetables as weapons to defeat Wart's army. Mario and Luigi try to find any vegetable in the ground, but the Snifits reveal that Wart got rid of those by making his minions uproot them before their arrival. Mario then uses another plan to get rid of the enemies and, wearing his chef clothes, tosses some Yoshi Cookie to create a Blind formation to create a wall and distance themselves from the Snifits.
Continuing on their path, Mario is attacked by a blood-sucking Tweeter which sucks so much from Mario, that all is left of him is his doctor persona. Luigi notices the Snifits coming, having got rid of the wall, but Dr. Mario localize a Red Shell inside a rock with his stethoscope. Mario grabs the shell, attaches two rocket pills to it and, riding it with his friends, runs over and defeats the Snifits. The Red Shell then crash into a wall and, while everyone recovers, Mario turns back into his normal persona.
