Tropes relating to [[Kirby]] and his friends and foes. For anime-only characters and tropes only present to a character in ''[[Kirby of the Stars]]'', go [[Kirby of the Stars/Characters|here.]] ''[[KirbysKirby's Return to Dream Land]]'' also has its own [[KirbysKirby's Return to Dream Land/Characters|character page]].
 
'''''WARNING: CONTAINS SPOILERS'''''
Line 26:
* [[Butt Monkey]]: In any cinematic not related to the [[Excuse Plot|"plot"]], Kirby ''will'' get abused. Case in point, the world title cards in ''Dreamland'' and ''Adventure'', and the blooper reel in ''Super Star Ultra''.
* [[Catch Phrase]]: "Hi!"
** And in the anime, ([[Ret Canon|and later]] ''[[Kirby's Epic Yarn|Kirbys Epic Yarn]]'', ''[[Kirby Mass Attack]]'' and ''[[KirbysKirby's Return to Dream Land]]'') "Poyo!"
* [[Cheerful Child]]: He has the mannerisms of one.
* [[Extreme Omnivore]]
Line 46:
* [[Trademark Favorite Food]]: Maxim Tomatoes, as well as that one strawberry shortcake he went on a rampage for.
* [[Transformation Sequence]]: Whenever he copies an ability; although it's quicker than most examples. It's made more elaborate in the anime, as well as with the Super Abilities in ''Return to Dream Land''.
* [[Unwitting Pawn]]: {{spoiler|In [[Kirby Super Star]]'s Milky Way Wishes, Kirby arrives at NOVA, only for his wish to be stolen by Marx. Also, in [[KirbysKirby's Return to Dream Land]], Magolor tricks him into defeating a dragon named Landia to obtain the Master Crown for him, only for Magolor to use it to try and take over the universe.}}
* [[Video Game Flight]]: Achieved by sucking in air and flapping his arms.
* [[Walking Head]]
Line 204:
** Also in Kirby's Adventure.
* [[Weapon of Choice]]: His hammer.
** As of ''[[KirbysKirby's Return to Dream Land]]'' and ''[[Kirby Mass Attack]]'', he's picked up bombs lately as well.
* [[Well-Intentioned Extremist]]: Played this part in Kirby's Adventure, as well as the remake Nightmare in Dream Land, where it seems like he was up to standard villainy by stealing the Star Rod from the fountain of dreams, but it is later revealed that he had a very ''good'' reason for doing so, as a horrifically evil entity, aptly named "Nightmare", had contaminated the fountain of dreams.
 
Line 415:
* {{spoiler|[[Big Bad]]: Of Milky Way Wishes in Kirby Super Star.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Bitch in Sheep's Clothing]]}}
* [[The Cameo]]: A statue of him is one of Stone's forms in ''[[KirbysKirby's Return to Dream Land]]''. He also shows up in the Kirby Master cutscene, and the friend that Magolor says told him about Kirby (as well as {{spoiler|the person on Halcandra whom Kirby has fought before}}) is widely speculated to be him.
* {{spoiler|[[The Chessmaster]]: The entire plot of Milky Way Wishes is entirely his [[Evil Plan]].}}
* {{spoiler|[[Fangs Are Evil]]: He gets them when he goes [[One-Winged Angel]].}}
Line 436:
* '''[[Badass]]''': The only Kirby foe to have a rock song for his battle theme, and it shows.
** For comparison, Marx's strongest attack is a [[Hell Gate]] that does about 1/3 of your health. Galacta Knight's strongest attack simply [[Spam Attack|stabs you in the face several times]] and deals 1/2 your health.
* [[Bonus Boss]]: {{spoiler|Of ''[[KirbysKirby's Return to Dream Land]]''}}.
* [[Cool Mask]]: It has a cross-shaped slit in the front, matching the design on his shield.
* [[Evil Counterpart]]: Of Meta Knight. His design is basically an angelic version of Meta Knight's, interestingly enough. He may or may not be evil, however.
Line 646:
 
Tropes associated with Bandana Dee:
* [[Ascended Extra]]: His first appearance was as an opponent in Megaton Punch in ''Super Star''. In ''Super Star Ultra'', he appears as King Dedede's personal helper in Revenge of the King. In ''[[KirbysKirby's Return to Dream Land]]'', he is now a playable character, aiding Kirby, Meta Knight, and his King.
* [[Badass Normal]]: Unlike his allies, he has no real abilities in [[KirbysKirby's Return to Dream Land]]. In fact, he only wields a spear.
* [[Blade on a Stick]]: His spear. He can even [[Everything's Better with Spinning|twirl it]] [[Improbable Use of a Weapon|like a helicopter blade to fly.]]
* [[My Friends and Zoidberg]]: He's teaming up with [[The Hero]], [[The Lancer]], and the [[Big Bad]]. Naturally, he's getting this treatment.
* [[No Name Given]]: All official material refers him simply as "Waddle Dee". Bandana Dee is just his [[Fan Nickname|nickname]].
* [[Redemption Promotion]]: Upon being one of the heroes in ''[[KirbysKirby's Return to Dream Land]]'', he becomes more powerful.
* [[Spin Attack]]
* [[Super Strength]]: Only in Megaton Punch.
* [[Took a Level In Badass]]: He was once a joke boss from ''[[Kirby Super Star|Kirby Super Star Ultra]]'', but he becomes a capable fighter in ''[[KirbysKirby's Return to Dream Land]]''.
