Did I mention WORD CRUFT? (Also, you shouldn't put everything in parentheses just because you can. That's clunky.)

Line 5:
** The ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' segment "Revenge Of Meta Knight", where [[Enemy Chatter|you get to hear the bad guys]] becoming ''progressively more and more afraid of you'' while you singlehandedly destroy Meta Knight's airship!
** Kirby gets one at the end of ''Milky Way Wishes'' in ''Kirby Super Star''/''Ultra'', when Marx {{spoiler|tricks Kirby into awakening Galactic Nova, a mechanical comet with the power to grant wishes, and leaves Kirby for dead, in an attempt to take over Pop Star. Kirby assembles the Starship, and flies into Galactic Nova through a level that plays like a ''Gradius'' style shooter, destroys the craft, and crashes onto Pop Star for a final, epic duel with Marx to decide the fate of the planet.}}
*** He gets an even better than the first part of that when, in Revenge of the King, {{spoiler|as he goes to the final level Dedede shoots him down with KABULAKabula, a character who hadn't appeared in ''12 YEARS,'' as Kirby falls down helplessly... and assembles the Starship out of the three stars he got before from the three previous bosses!}} Cue amazing shoot 'em up boss fight.
* King Dedede gets one when he {{spoiler|teams up with Kirby}} in ''Kirby 64''.
** And how can we not forget the most epic quote in ''Kirby Super Star Ultra''? :When Kirby finally makes it to Dedede, who sent minion after minion-- even [[Fan Nickname|Captain Waddle Dee]]-- after him, he tells Kirby to arm himself with a Hammer, and then says this:
{{quote|Our grudge will be settled at last...}}
* What is possibly his greatest CMoA comes nearNear the end of Kirby's Adventure/Kirby: Nightmare in DreamlandDream Land. After spending the whole game thinking Dedede's the [[Big Bad]], the player learns {{spoiler|he had been trying to seal away Nightmare the whole time. Even after getting beaten into submission, he gets up shortly afterwards to try and stop Kirby from putting the restored Star Rod into the Fountain of Dreams, going so far as to be ''dragged'' across the ground part of the way there.}} As if this setting the tone for his behavior in the future wasn't great enough, he ends the scene in a somewhat badass way -- {{spoiler|understandably pissed off at Kirby, he swallows him and the Star Rod, then spits them back out. Into ''space''.}}
* The final boss of ''Kirby 64'' was a [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]] for both Ribbon and Kirby: {{spoiler|they face off against the [[Eldritch Abomination|embodiment of all evil]] together, armed only with the holy crystal of the fairies. Oh,She andeven did I mention that Ribbon actually CARRIES''carries'' Kirby throughout the whole battle? She doesn't even drop him if they get hit! Her wings expand to 3 times their size, just so she can carry our favorite pink herofight! And afterwards, she [[Standard Hero Reward|kisses him]], which causes him to faint. (ThisThat's is hisKirby's only kiss with ANYONEanyone in the ''whole series!)''}}
* Kirby's ''Dream Land'' has an awesome ending, too. Kirby defeats Dedede, {{spoiler|''turns into an enormous balloon'', and brings the food back to Dream Land.}} How awesome is that?
* The ending of ''Dream Land 2'' was nothing short of memorable, if not counting as both CMoA and [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming]]. {{spoiler|After Dark Matter transforms from a katana-wielding warrior into the one-eyed monster we recognize, Kirby fights him with the Rainbow Sword in outer space as they slowly descend into re-entry through Dreamland's atmosphere. Kirby defeats Dark Matter but seemingly passes out of exhaustion. A cutscene shows Coo glimpsing a shooting star while the rest of Kirby's animal helpers watch the sky as somber/hopeful music plays, and even Dedede is shown wondering about the fate of our hero. Kirby wakes up, only to find out he has been floating down safely thanks to the power of the Rainbow Sword, which Kirby grabs and flies around with as day breaks and the credits roll. If played on the Game Boy, the streak of light that comes from the sword at the last moment appears as a rainbow. Cue end.}} The entire sequence can be seen [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vujwj1fFcIM#t=13s here].
* Listing all of Meta Knight's awesome moments would be insanely difficult...
** In ''Super Star'', Meta Knight slaughters his way to Galactic Nova, the wish-granting comet, and wishes to unleash Galacta Knight, a godlike being that was sealed away due to being too powerful and ''proceeds to kick its ass in a way that would make [[Chuck Norris]] cry.'' Partly because Meta Knight just wanted to become stronger and mostly for the sheer hell of it. If that's not [[Badass]], then nothing is.
*** {{spoiler|And kicking his ass all over again in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'' as a [[Bonus Boss]] is the game's best moment}}.
*** The Final Battle cutscene in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]''. Everyone is {{spoiler|riding dragons through a wormhole}}, dodging energy balls shot by the [[Big Bad]], and Meta Knight is zipping around batting them away with his sword like they're nothing. He only {{spoiler|gets shot down}} when he flies in front of Kirby to protect him.
