    Earliest adaption of an animated Super Mario Bros.

    This is the oldest animated Super Mario Bros. Cartoon. And it contains all the elements from the game. The plot is similar to with the whole Mario Bros. travel in Mushroom Kingdom to save Princess Peach from Bowser. Only the story is different.

    There are minor and secondary characters entirely original for this movie only. Plus it has a few changes like Luigi wearing yellow instead of green, & the Mario Bros. are grocery store owners and not plumbers.

    Despite all that the movie has a good flow to it as well as some pretty catchy Japanese voice talent. But for only 60 minutes long, there's so much more they could include in this movie.

    Sadly this is the only existing Mario Bros. anime. And I think it wouldn't hurt to make another one that's done with newer animation. I mean if Pokemon can have a successful anime. Why not the Mario Bros, there's so much value that can make a highly interesting based off of a video game anime.

    I didn't see this movie till most recently. And it's never been released outside of Japan at all. An English dub is out of the question as very few anime distribution companies would never dub anything this old and out of date animation.

    The only way it would ever be released is to get it on a sub-only DVD and get permission by Nintendo in doing so.

    Weird Movie From Mario's Early Days

    I never heard of this anime movie until the internet, as this was ultra rare, and was never released in America (in fact, this was never re-released in Japan in any form). Made a year after the original Super Mario Bros. game was released, the anime movie sees Mario and Luigi as grocery store owners. One night, Mario meets Peach while playing video games late at night, where Koopa beats him and captures her, leaving her necklace. After a dog grabs it, the two chase it into a pipe, leading them into the Mushroom Kingdom, where they are tasked to stop Koopa, who is king of the Metal Kingdom, and save Peach from marriage, while also collecting the three powers needed to stop Bowser.

    As this was made a year after the original Super Mario Bros. game was released, continuity was not established, so there are a lot of things that are different from the Mario lore we know today (Luigi is wearing blue overalls over a yellow shirt, and is greedy, a trait people know Wario better for having, and the film has some characters exclusive to it, like Kibidango the dog, and a Toadette that predates the official one), this is a okay, if not weird Mario anime movie. The main thing I like about it is the soundtrack, as it not only has music from the video game, but also the neat song "Doki-Doki Do It".

    The original adaptation of Super Mario Bros.

    After the original video game achieved great popularity in a short time, the decision was made to make this adaptation just a year after the video game was born. It can be seen that this film was made to learn more about the lore of the Mario universe when it was still in its early stages. This film takes all the characteristic elements of the original game and you can even notice that it has some ideas that would be reused in the video games that would come later. The film gives the opportunity to know the personality of the characters and what they are like. What it offers is a fun cartoon that knew how to materialize the video game universe, making it clear what was behind the pixels. The soundtrack is the same as the video game, but adding original songs that are quite good. There is no doubt that this film is a gem that has remained anonymous for a long time until it was discovered by the magic of the internet. This Super Mario Bros. Movie was the franchise's worthy big break on the big screen before the 1993 version put the franchise to sleep for 30 years and was then resurrected by the Illumination version. My final rating for this movie is a 9/10.

    A very weird, but nice Mario movie.

    Well, I honestly didn't know this existed to begin with. Obviously because of it only airing in Japan, but also because I didn't think they'd actually make an anime movie based on Super Mario Bros. But when I did find out and saw it, I was pleasantly surprised. While it's weird and strange, it's honestly pretty enjoyable with nice animation which looks a lot like the games, humorous (but weird) moments, and a decent plot (despite the rushed and out-of-nowhere ending). Overall, I think this movie is still pretty enjoyable. Definitely more enjoyable than the later 1993 movie. If you like anime and Mario, then this film is for you.

    Annoying

    Here's a strange one. An early and oddly obscure, animated adaptation of the adventures of the Super Mario Brothers, Mario and Luigi.

    While this movie's rendition of the Mushroom Kingdom is actually pretty faithful to the original games, featuring almost all the classic enemies, sound effects, tunes and even level elements, it disappoints in all other respects. The quality of the animation is even below that of the already dreadful "Super Mario Bros. Super Show", the characters, rather than acting in accordance with some sort of personality, or at least a few consistent quirks, just keep throwing random emotional fits, the humor annoys with a blend of nonsensical (not to be mistaken with creative) silliness and utterly generic slapstick, and the songs that play throughout the entire thing have brain-meltingly dumb lyrics.

    All in all, I cannot understand why people are commenting positively on this one. As much as I consider the western Mario cartoons to be nothing but quick and lazy attempts to capitalize on the popularity of the character, I fail to see how this is any better, if not worse.
