Line 11:
*** Three of his friends in that game have tried to kill him too. (Adeleine was a victim of two [[Demonic Possession]]s, though.) But he's been shown to spend time with his friends there and with the ''Dreamland 2'' and ''3'' friends.
** How evil is Galacta Knight? He's noted to be strong enough to be capable of destroying entire planets and was sealed away because of that power, but the games are vague on if he abused it or not. So he's either a psychopathic, planet-busting [[Blood Knight]]; a cranky, violent, but otherwise neutral figure looking for a good scrap; or a monster... [[Self-Fulfilling Prophecy|but one of the Ancients' own making after he was sealed away without him actually doing anything wrong]].
* [[And the Fandom Rejoiced]]: After about 6 years of delays and hiatus, the ''[[Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards]]'' Wii follow-up [http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011-01-28-new-nintendo-wii-kirby-game-announced was finally
* [[Anticlimax Boss]]: Waddle Dee. In Revenge of the King, he is the last boss before King Dedede. He's [[Breather Boss|laughably easy]].
** It's the same Waddle Dee that appears in the Arena in ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]''.
Line 23 ⟶ 22:
** The whole "storm the castle while your enemies panic" bit is repeated in the final level of "Revenge of the King" in Super Star Ultra.
** Meta-Knight wishes to have released the strongest warrior in the galaxy, locked away for fear of his power, for the sole purpose of ''kicking said warrior's ass''. Which he proceeds to do. <ref>Or not, since this boss fight, while not [[Nintendo Hard]], is pretty painful the first few times, due to the fact that Galacta Knight is basically a computer controlled, [[Light Is Not Good|white and feather-winged]], extra-badass Meta-Knight with a lance and shield, making the fight as fun as it is awesome).</ref> Why? For training purposes. Or fun. Or just to prove he could.
** We have an entire page for it [[Kirby/Awesome|here.]]
* [[Crowning Moment of Funny]]: ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' again. When you start ''"Milky Way Wishes"'', the tutorial tells you that {{spoiler|you can't copy your enemies' abilities as you previously did}}. Cue Kirby's obvious, hilarious [[Oh Crap]].
** Have fun [[Kirby/Funny|with the rest.]]
Line 36:
** Bandana Dee, [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|a Waddle Dee with a bandana]] seems to be rapidly gaining popularity, especially after the announcement he was playable in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]''. [[Lampshaded]] by his pause screen description in the game, which calls him "everyone's favorite idol".
** Magolor seems to be quickly becoming this. It probably helps that he has one of the best character designs in the whole Kirby series, and that when he pricks his ears down, [[Ridiculously Cute Critter|his cuteness rivals Kirby's.]] {{spoiler|Until he [[Et Tu, Brute?|steals Landia's crown]], that is.}} He still has quite a bit of popularity regardless, especially owing to his appearance {{spoiler|and redemption}} in ''[[Kirby's Dream Collection Special Edition]]'', and subsequent appearances in ''Kirby Super Clash'' and ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]''.
* [[Even Better Sequel]]: The original Kirby game was a fairly standard side-scroller that was pretty enjoyable for what it was, but was laughably short and easy (although the latter is compensated by the unlockable Hard Mode--[[Nintendo Hard|and it lives up to its name]]) and didn't even allow you to copy abilities! ''Kirby's Adventure'' then came out on the NES and blew the original out of the water by offering more levels, the series-trademark copy abilities, and a save feature! ''Kirby's
* [[Evil Is Cool]]: Kirby villains as a whole tend to be ''very'' popular. While a lot of them are [[Generic Doomsday Villain]]s such as Nightmare, Dark Matter, Zero, 02, and Necrodeus, they make up for their lack of personality with their awesomely creepy designs and memorable encounters. Meanwhile, better-fleshed out villains like {{spoiler|Marx}}, {{spoiler|Magolor}}, Queen Sectonia, Taranza, Susie, and President Haltmann are strongly characterized, go through genuine development, and - in the case of Haltmann and Sectonia - are ridiculously tragic in spite of their appalling villainy. Then you've got King Dedede's more malicious outings where he's your typical hammy and fun Nintendo villain, as well as ''[[Epileptic Trees|Epileptic Woodsman]]'' Void Termina with the crazy implications its existence has for multiple villains ''and'' heroes in the series. Uniting them all is amazingly fun boss fights, great boss music, and intriguing lore, which results in one of Nintendo's strongest rogues galleries yet.
* [[Fridge Brilliance]]: Why are the [[Big Bad]]s of the games usually so nightmarish? Because it's ''Dream'' Land - it's only fitting.
Line 57:
** Also, Marx's [[Breath Weapon|mouth laser attack]]. "Imma Firin Ma Lazah!"
** Rick the Hamster. With the Stone ability, he can [[Rickroll|roll]].
* [[It's Easy, So It Sucks|It's Easy, So It]] [[Stealth Pun|Sucks]]: The games may be easy, but this is generally [[Averted Trope|averted]] - they were actually designed to be very easy, yet nobody seems to have any problem. This becomes quite weird when you hear this trope being invoked elsewhere, since how many other games allow you to ''fly over most of the stage'' without even having to find a power-up?
* [[Jerkass Woobie]]: Some sources on the English side claim that Zero wants to have a friend, but it cannot. Who could love or be friends with a giant eyeball? Zero is also an entity that feels only negative emotions and is unable to feel happiness or any positive emotion. It attacks Dreamland because it thinks that if it cannot be happy, then neither can anyone else. Sad, isn't it?
* [[Magnificent Bastard]]: Without a doubt, Meta Knight. In fact, even leaning more towards being a [[Guile Hero]] in [[Kirby Right Back At Ya]].
