Escargoon Sings (Hoshi no Kaabii Episode 55)

[@CyberQueen2004]

Man, Escargoon gets bullied a lot by King Dedede, but stays by his side no matter what mean things he does to him. I bet that deep down, Dedede feels very grateful and is glad to have a loyal servant like Escargoon.

[@pbscraze]

No doubt. Cuz when he’s by himself, he can’t think straight. Basically, Dedede’s lost without him!

[@SlayIcon]

He’s just a masochist

[@barbarakemmer8494]

Holy god what they did in the dub... They turned a "His a selfish, brute tirant but I love him anyway" to sort of "If i keep waiting, someday he'll have a heart attack and then i take the throne!"

[@Joebama87]

ikr they only changed it because it kinda confirmed that he was in love with dedede i hate homophobes so much

[@someguylostontheinternet4504]

@@Joebama87 Even if that was the case, they could have just changed love to like/adore, or any word close to it.

[@ming7831]

@@Joebama87 that may have been the case but i really do think they just genuinely wanted to give him that "i hate dedede" vibe

[@EnigmaBL]

jesus... straightwashing is a helluva drug >.

[@usermcskull4713]

to be fair, they probably weren't allowed to have lgbt representation at the time in anime dubs (see sailor moon)

THE WAY IT CUT OFF WAS HILARIOUS

[@Dj-DeadBeatz]

i knoooowwww

[@dragonkeeper19600]

I told someone on this site that Escargoon was in love with Dedede, and they didn't believe me. Fool.

[@Legoluigi26]

Escargoon is my favorite anime idol.

[@postal2forthe3ds]

My friend sent me this on a forum. Thank you, Marx. I appreciate it.

Japanese Kirby said gay rights

[@kirbylovespizza2488]

I think the gay stuff was just used for laughs and I'll admit it was pretty funny

[@kamranshah-f1x]

i don't think escargoon was gay, he just had a boy crush on king dededede in a comedic way. just like beavis and butt-head has a boycrush on todd in a comedic way.

[@CandlelightChaos28v2]

Thank you for uploading this adorableness!!!

[@Dj-DeadBeatz]

[@usermcskull4713]

I just realized this song is to the tune of the actual Japanese theme song

[@Commander-peepers]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/d5fSl5aviaiqr68 wel it is pretty good to know that.

[@jamiegioca9448]

Did you just say you loved me? 😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏😏

[@Animation_Noob-t5e]

Sadly we will never know how Dedede would have really reacted if he didn't have that monster inside of him that held all of his anger inside 🥲

[@AStupidUnknownUser]

He’s literally Smithers from The Simpsons

[@joanhill4666]

OH, COME ON!!! I CAN'T BE THE ONLY ONE WHO FINDS THIS ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE!!! 😍😍😍

[@NintendoGirl49]

Just realized he's singing the anime's theme song but with his own lyrics lol

[@demonskullz]

BEFORE YOU COMMENT: if you comment saying anything along the lines of "gay panic" your comment will be deleted. that phrase does not mean what you think it means and its not funny. EDIT: do NOT ask me why. either google it and do your own research or click this: tinyurl.com/gaypanicinfo

[@barbarakemmer8494]

... I just googled it and... OOF!... For those who don't know, homossexual panic(or gay panic in the case), is, as described on wikipedia: is a term coined by psychiatrist Edward J. Kempf in 1920 for a condition of "panic due to the pressure of uncontrollable perverse sexual cravings". 😬 Yeet...

[@SG_SAASS98]

NOOOOOOOOOOOO the vase

[@cumulus5049]

erm what the sigma

[@usermcskull4713]

There is no heterosexual explanation for this

[@grayanddevpdx]

The true best couple in Kirby. Too sad Escargoon isn’t canon.

[@splatoonfreak1959]

Well I could be wrong but at the time I’m pretty sure lgbtq+ representation was more accepted in japan

[@kai_maceration]

ngl they're in a toxic relationship, that gay little snail deserves better ❤😔

[@TheChaoticArtist1]

@@grayanddevpdxhe is cannon. He’s in Kirby mass attack

[@grayanddevpdx]

@@TheChaoticArtist1 Mass Attack’s canonicity is very vague since it’s considered a spin-off.
