This area is volcanic and filled with lava. Lava rocks rain down. Fire Bros are all over. We need to put a Thing sticker over the volcano. The Shaved Ice turns the area into a winter wonderland. Anything that was Fire-type is now Ice-type, even the Fire Bros. We can walk on the lava, so we can reach the door drawing. The Secret Door leads to the Basin. Walk on the ice to the left past the item block to a hidden area with the Turkey. Happy Thanksgiving! Walk over the frozen lava floes to the next area.
The effects of the Shaved Ice are limited to the previous area. There are Fire Piranhas here. Hop across the lava, sometimes on platforms floating in the lava. There are two paths out of here that lead to the same area. The lower path leads to a rock that we can peel off. This scrap doesn't belong here. Go back to the previous area and peel the rock with an alcove between the lava rivers. Place the other scrap here. Hop up on the rock to reach the path back there. Go to the left and get the Car Sponge. Placing the other scrap allows us to go to the back of this area. There's a cracked rock back there we can break, creating a bridge above. Across the bridge is a Heart Block and a Save Block.
The next area just has a large river running through it and enemies. The next area has the comet piece and something missing. Go back to the entrance to the previous area and wait for a lava rock to drop on a crack to make a hole. Drop down it for a Megaflash Slaphammer. It leads to a hole in the side of the rock. Jump out and go up the steps and lure another lava rock to a crack until one makes a hole. It's on the same level as a Bony Beetle. Go to the left and pick up the Cracked Boulder. There's a hot spring in the foggy area. Luigi's in a different hot spring. We peel him off and he runs to the right this time.
Go to the area with the comet piece and place the Cracked Boulder. Hit the crack to make the rock fall on the comet piece. Walk across the rock and peel it off, then replace it to put the comet piece on top. Before you get it, climb up the hill and lure a lava rock to the crack. Drop down the hole for a Megaflash Iron Jump. The comet piece opens up the path to 5-6.
Back in Decalburg, an article talks about Luigi in the hot springs, this time calling him "L-Man". His existence has finally been confirmed. He also spent too much time in the hot spring, turning his face red.

New Super Mario Bros. 2: 5-5
Go up the red pipe to start the level. The level has lots of Bill Blasters and Bullet Bills, as well as snake platforms moving back and forth. Jump on the Bill Blaster immediately to your left to make the first Star Coin appear overhead. Jump off the Bill Blaster to reach it. Dodge Bullet Bills and platform until you reach the midpoint. Take the next green pipe, which is a cannon, to Coin Heaven. You'll find the second Star Coin here. When you return to the main level, there will be Red Coins nearby. Towards the end of the level is a Banzai Blaster. Go down the red pipe nearby and go left for a Gold Ring. It will make coins trail behind all Bullet Bills and Banzai Bills. You'll return to the main level left of the red pipe. The third Star Coin is above the abyss to the left of a Banzai Blaster. There are Bullet Bills below, so bounce off them to get the third Star Coin. The flag is just beyond the Banzai Blaster.
Coin Total: 44,384
I found the first and third Star Coins after beating the final boss.

Super Mario 3D Land: 5-5
The level starts with a giant Tanooki Goomba. We take it out with a few fireballs. The item block on the right is a propeller block and we use it to hop up the clouds. We also use it to kill the tall stack of Goombas for a 1-up. We spring up, then drop down to the left for the first Star Coin, propelling back up to safety. We hop up some clouds to some binoculars. We can look through them even with the propeller block on our head. We see Toad with a propeller block, too. He drops down to the location of the flagpole. We reach the midpoint. I tried to reach the second Star Coin, but fell.
Take 2- I fell.
Take 3- We get the second Star Coin by jumping from a springy mushroom, dropping down a little, then using the propeller block to reach it and get to safety. We get a Tanooki Suit from a giant Tanooki Goomba and spin a gear in a brick block in the upper left corner. There's a clock on a nearby platform and a P-Switch that makes rings. We use the propeller block to drop down to platforms and reach the third Star Coin. We take it to the flagpole for a 1-up.

New Super Mario Bros. Wii 5-5 -- High-Flying Manta Rays
This is an annoying level, but can be easily if you keep a level head. It's an automatic sidescroller with mostly large manta rays serving as your platforms. There are large patches of fog, making it difficult to see where you can go. To aid you, there are Propeller Blocks. The 1st Star Coin is visible just past a set of platforms. I jumped to get it and made sure to land on a manta ray. Eventually, you will see a midgate. Jump off the manta ray before it descends into the abyss. One of the item blocks past the midgate has a Propller Suit. The 2nd Star Coin is hidden in a cloud soon after that. The 3rd Star Coin is very well hidden. Just past the 2nd Star Coin, a manta ray will appear with a POW block on its back. I got it and used it while a couple of manta rays were under the coins in a "W" formation. The 3rd Star Coin will drop down, hopefully onto a manta ray so you can get it. I went through the pipe at the end and got a 1-up at the goal.
