Super Mario Bros.: Peach-Hime Kyushutsu Dai Sakusen! (スーパーマリオブラザーズ ピーチ姫救出大作戦! Sūpā Mario Burazāzu.: Pīchi-Hime Kyushutsu Dai Sakusen!?, literally, "Super Mario Bros.: Great Mission to Rescue Princess Peach!") is an anime film released in Japan on July 20, 1986, and later put for release on VHS only as a rental by VAP Video. Directed by Masami Hata and produced by Masakatsu Suzuki and Tsunemasa Hatano, it is about Nintendo characters Mario and Luigi, who get stuck in a Famicom video game, in which they must save Princess Peach from Koopa. It has a similar story to Super Mario Bros. for the NES. A manga adaptation of the film was published in Japan around the same time as the movie's release.

[edit] Plot
In the film, Mario and Luigi are the owners of a grocery store. One night, Mario was engrossed in his Famicom game. Suddenly, the picture goes out and Princess Peach appears on the TV screen crying for help from the enemies attacking her and jumps out of the TV. Mario falls in love with her and vows to protect her. Soon after, Koopa appears on the TV screen and starts to come out of the TV. He grabs Princess Peach and takes her into the TV. Mario then discovers a small brooch that Peach left on the floor.
The next day, the brooch that Peach dropped becomes a matter of concern for Mario. Luigi immediately notices the brooch and regards it as the "Visionary Jewel from the Country of Treasure". Soon, Kibidango, a small dog-like being, wanders into the store and notices that Mario has Peach's brooch. He takes it away from Mario, enraging him, thus beginning his (and Luigi's) chase with Kibidango into the Mushroom Kingdom.
When the Mario brothers arrive at the kingdom, a large Mushroom Sennin tells them that Koopa has taken over the kingdom and is turning the helpless citizens into blocks and that on Friday the 13th, Koopa will marry Peach. By finding the three powers, the mushroom of truth, the flower of love, and the yellow star of invincibility, the Mario Brothers will be able to defeat Koopa and save Princess Peach.
Throughout the many perilous obstacles, Mario finally finds all the three powers by Friday the 13th. When night arises, the wedding of Koopa and Peach begins to take place. Mario arrives and beats up Koopa enlisting the help of the three powers, and Koopa's magic is destroyed, bringing back the Mushroom Kingdom that was before Koopa came along. Mario gives Peach's brooch back to her, which reveals Kibidango's true identity, Prince Haru of the Flower Kingdom, who says that Koopa transformed him into a dog (Kibidango). After the credits, Koopa and his minions have reformed, and are seen happily working for the grocery.
