I'd just like to hammer in something that was only lightly touched on in this video. Magolor built Merry MagoLand using funds he acquired in Kirby Clash. But in that game, the "currency" you use is Gem Apples, which *probably* aren't used as literal money. But you know what else? There are *microtransactions* in that game, where you can pay Magolor real money in exchange for Gem Apples. *Magolor built a theme park using the money he got from microtransactions.*

21:09 "...Even if he is still a master-class troll." I think this is one of the main reasons why Magolor's redemption arc works so well. A pretty common problem with redemption arcs is that once the character completes their arc, they lose their original personality entirely and become a generic "good guy". It's basically the narrative equivalent of the meme of "the boss when you fight them vs. when you unlock them as a playable character". I think there's a sweet spot you want to get, where the character grows enough for them to be redeemed, but also not making the change so big that they're completely unrecognizable by the end. Magolor always was a friendly, cheerful, goofy trickster, and he still is by the end of his arc. However, his growth as a character is still very significant due to the way his motives and reasons are changed. Magolor realized that obtaining the Master Crown wasn't what he truly wanted when it took him over, and he saw that its supposed "unlimited power" was no match for the power of Kirby's friendship, and was practically forced to face his sins and overcome them or die trying.

[@danviferahr1426]

Oh, guess i got gifted. Thanks to whoever got me this. Magolor is my personal favorite villain in kirby

[@R0se_Bullet]

So to mention the Mario thing. He was saying (I believe) that magolor was in hell. Or just the afterlife. Since that was showing mario in, if I remember right. Hell. But been long since I played it, so forgot what it was exactly

[@HaythamKenway383]

16:14 The Master Crown's form as an apple tree is very likely a reference to the Biblical Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil and its Forbidden Fruit. It certainly wouldn't be the first time the Kirby series reference the Bible, given Zero-Two's angelic appearance in Kirby 64. Also, the name of the Master Crown's boss theme is "Mistilteinn, Tree Crown without a Ruler", which has two meanings. First of all, "mistilteinn" is the Old Norse word for "mistletoe", which is actually a parasite, just like how the Master Crown acts as a parasite for its hosts. Secondly, Mistilteinn is a legendary sword in Icelandic mythology, so it could also be the name of the Ultra Sword Magolor uses to destroy the Crown for good.

[@ShinigamiSamaH]

Like he said, Magolor was likely just going on a treasure hunt before being manipulated by the Crown into obtaining it, kinda like the One Ring tempting people to pick it up.

[@wi-fiwarrior1076]

I didn’t say this in your previous reactions but thank you for watching both RPG Monger’s and Designing For’s videos on Kirby lore. I feel like the videos complement one another to give the most complete picture on Kirby lore.

[@lucas.n.carvalho.artist]

Meteorz's work is excellent, definitely my favorite Kirby content creator! He's mostly retired now, and he very much earned the rest after so many years making such a great work! Please check out the works of Thorgi's Arcade in the near future! You already mentioned his BlazBlue Retrospective, but all his series are worthwhile watches! My personal favorite are his Build the Roster ones.

[@miiandgalaxy]

I'm happy to see someone react to one of Meteorz's video, he's one of my favorite Kirby channels and is really underrated, if you also want more details about most of the Kirby characters you learned about in other videos, I highly recommend checking out more of Meteorz's "What is Kirby Canon" series

[@Huy_YT]

When it comes to Kirby lore Meteorz is my go to for concentrated in depth explanations. It's nicely bitesized, greatly researched and up to date. Great way to dive deeper into Kirby Lore. Highest recommandations for detailed Kirby lore in my opinion :D ... .. . ... Man, I wish there were more people covering the Splatoon series lorewise, because it can absolutely hold its ink in that regards next to Kirby. There is this video by JEXST with the timeline up to Splatoon3 before the DLCs which is inkcredibly detailed and well researched and I'd love to recommand it to anyone who likes some lore but the fact that it is nearly 5 hours long makes it probably too big to ask to cover for. Still, when it comes to Splatoon lore this is without a doubt the best starting point in my eyes, so if you are interested check it out^^

[@marxylpndm]

Super Paper Mario mentioned! As an avid fan of both SPM and the Kirby series, I'd say the lore is quite similar between the two, with the same combo of silly fun times and pretty dark or emotional stuff. The story there is really good so I highly recommend checking it out as well!

[@mrcloudark787]

Omg what better way to start the day. Thank you so much And yes, the Master Crown appeared once again in Star Allies final boss, Void Termina, in its bird form it spawns a giant one in the Normal Boss, yet for the True Arena ones, its capable of spawning multiple ones, showing us how easy is to create these artifacts, how meaningless it is for the main source. Just as easy was for Zero to create many Dark Matters as it wants.

[@ikirbeeburgr]

The final fight of the true arena being canon makes sense considering Kirby and The forgotten Land you have to beat it’s true arena (the ultimate cup z) as part of the story

[@Clownin-round]

Its actually canon that the Lor Starcutter wasnt a battleship! Lor means "Paradise" in the language of the ancients- Magolor repurposed it into a weapon. The Paper Mario series is actually heavily tied into the Kirby series- with some theories saying all of PM is the direct prequel. The Ancients are still spoken of regarding a war that took place almost a thousand years ago- a demon had been released 1000 years ago and only the powers of starlight can seal it away again- an ancient, technological alien species is hellbent on world domination- the force of overwhelming chaos births the void- its all directly connected to specific lore in Kirby.

[@felipesalas3373]

You should watch all meteorz videos on kirby lore, i think you will find some interesting

[@1ario15]

I wonder when a Kirby will get his chance on the big screen

[@JamesP7]

MeteorZ!!! The best and most in-depth Kirby creator. ❤ Sad he retired, but I am happy for him getting a kid and raising a family.

[@thisiscoolgal]

i think my magolor plushie heard you called him a scrub

[@TheRealSuperKirby]

Finally someone reacts to the guy who actually did the work to put together and solve the lore and not the ones who just summerize it

[@alessandroreyes3827]

I think the crown being a three is kinda of a joke about being a three crown but also on how it basically plants roots in the user and grows out of the user sheel.

[@OuterWildin]

If you want to know more about the mischievous egg, I’d recommend the video “Magolor’s Bag O’ Lore from the channel Game & Lore,” which goes into even more depth about his character. Also, Super Paper Mario mention! If you want to dive into that game, I’d highly recommend the video “Super Paper Mario: How to Love When You’re Going to Die.” It is an hour long so if that’s too long, “Super Paper Mario: The Greatest Mario Story Ever Told” is only 30 minutes. It doesn’t go into as much depth as the first, but it will tell you what you need to know Also I just want to say I look forward to your reaction vids because you’re very entertaining

[@judie6727]

14:04 You need to react to a video about the story of Super Paper Mario, like it is shockingly well written for a Mario game. Also he is referencing "The Underwhere" which is basically hell. Yeah Mario dies and goes to hell in that game, just a single chapter though, he gets better.

[@s.d.illius5900]

Yes. YES! I love these videos so much.

[@Maxwell_Twist]

I think you'd like "My Take on the Kirby Lore Timeline" made by ThatOneGuy 426. It's a bit on the long side of things at 51 minutes, but it's really interesting to hear how everything might have gone down chronologically in the Kirby Universe. Also, he seems to have put a lot of effort into the video but only has 156 subscribers, so it could also help out a little channel get some more eyes on it as well.

[@Avathestarwarrior]

Yooo Meteorz video? I've known this guy for a while and he's really awesome. You should see more of his vids!

[@smugsneasel]

04:37 A statement that many capitalists and political leaders probably said at one point.

[@FenexTheFox]

Hurray! I don't know if you actually read my previous comment, but thanks for reacting to Meteorz like I wished for anyway!

[@timothywarner-guile7221]

Just a small suggestion designing for grintelda from banjo kazooie

[@dms023]

6:14 yeah is not confirm that kirby is void but Star allies throws in your face so many evidence, I think is stupid to ignore that, the game is never going to said "yeah kirby is void k thanks bye" Kirby and void have a Lot of similarities and all evidence point to kirby being a positive void

[@skistorm739]

wundering waves lore is cool

[@Aggression-qm2yg]

Dot

[@diegogomez7333]

Sakurai confirmed that kirby is a boy

[@UltimaZGamer]

If you ever wanna learn about mega man lore you should check out the black mastadonte he is currently doing a retrospective of the game series and covers the most lore and background information of any mega man lore video I have ever seen from the original mega man to zx though he plans on talking about everything up to mega man star force

[@TramiNguyen-oi3kp]

How old is Magolor?

[@inquianyler5929]

Magolor is one of the best characters in Kirby way better than marx

[@Timelineofcards]

You have to learn Pokemon Lore,since you mentioned you don't know much.
