This makes it the UrExample of the "trapped in a video game" isekai subgenre. This was in spite of Mario not having been established to be from Earth in the early Japanese canon like was the case with the early American canon.

* ''Manga/WelcomeToDemonSchoolIrumaKun'' is about a young human boy Iruma who is adopted by (sold to) an eccentric elderly demon and wrangled into attending high school in the Netherworld... [[ToServeMan where humans are considered a rare delicacy]]. Iruma has to attend school while keeping the spotlight away from himself and hiding his humanity so he doesn't accidentally befall an unfortunate fate. Which is not helped at all by his new "grandfather"-- who happens to be the principal of said school-- parading Iruma around as his adorable liddle grandson.
