Explaining the ULTIMATE Kirby Iceberg - Pekachow

[@pekachow1]

This video did so much better than I anticipated! I never expected to reach over 20,000 views in less than a month, but here we are! Thank you all SO much for checking this out and enjoying it! I probably should have said this in the outro, but I don't have any other plans for making iceberg videos in the foreseeable future, this was just a way to present some neat Kirby facts and just because I thought making an iceberg video would be a nice way to get an audience and because I have enjoyed watching them. Kirby is my favorite series of all time, gaming or otherwise, and I'd say I have a deep knowledge of the series to make an interesting iceberg and accompanying video. I could probably add a few other things to series such as Mario or Sonic, but it's harder to really add something new considering that Iceberg's on those franchises (especially the latter) have been done a lot. There's only 2 or 3 Kirby iceberg videos (besides this one) in English that seem to have over a thousand views, so there's plenty of uncharted territory for me to cover. In short, I probably won't make another iceberg video, but I plan more on reviewing things, mostly games from the past and present, although I'd like to talk about some TV shows and movies, mostly based on video games, although I may dabble in some other types of videos. Thank you all so much for giving this video and channel some support and apologies if you wanted more icebergs, but I hope you stick around to see what I have in store!

In case it hasn't already been said (probably a lot) you could use a slightly better mic setup. Nobody is faulting you for what you've got now, being at 500-ish subs, but saying you wanna make potential income, I would argue that it's one of the most significant investments in your channel you could make.

There’s actually more to Iroha, it turns out that in the Star Allies CD interview with Kumazaki and others who worked on the soundtrack, Kumazaki states that the voice for Void Termina was created by recording multiple people saying the first lines of Iroha, mixing them together, and distorting it to make its voice. It’s so cool to me that Kumazaki payed such close attention as to reincorporate something like this.

A few things; • It's sorta implied that 0² is the reincarnation of Zero after his defeat in DL3, given the halo and Angelic wings • Kirby had to defeat Nova because he was headed towards Popstar by Marx's bequest (though what he would've done if he got there is unknown)

[@Mewseeker]

And in fact, Nova going toward Popstar is what ultimately stop the sun and moon quarrel as they suddenly team up to stop Nova, allowing Kirby access to it.

[@mightyandray7260]

Ooh cool! I thought Kirby destroyed Nova because he was mad that Nova granted Marx’s wish.

[@mightyandray7260]

Do you think Nova was heading towards pop star to grant Kirby’s wish?

[@TheWraithOfMooCow]

@@mightyandray7260 Kirby never got the chance to make a wish. Nova was likely going over to Popstar to grant Marx's wish to rule it.

[@TheWraithOfMooCow]

Everyone seems to be forgetting the biggest clue that Zero is 0²: *The band-aid on his head is from when you ripped his eyeball out in Dream Land 3.*

[@ReitheOffbeatOtaku]

I think my single favorite moment in this near 5-hour long video is just the phrase _"...In the final version of the game, the Spear of Longinus was replaced with a cactus."_ at around 3:03:22. That's the kind of phrase you can only get from Kirby.

[@Electrosa]

The whole "Taranza and the five stages of grief" thing can be interpreted in Star Allies as well, since the "plot" of Taranza's Guest Star Hero mode is him apparently trying to revive Sectonia. So the whole mode could be seen as Bargaining, and then presumably advancing through to Acceptance once it's over.

[@xd-px5ne]

yeah, but that's especially the team kirby clash deluxe's plot

[@Electrosa]

i like the fact that this actually uses the idea of the iceberg, the point of the iceberg is the deeper we go the less known the things are, because all of the icebergs i seen instead of turning onto less known things it just becomes creepier, which is cool, but not the original purpose of an iceberg.

[@anueutsuho7425]

Actually pretty sure it was the other way around. The first one was the Super Mario 64 iceberg which just listed fake conspiracy theories entirely around halfway down as a sorta joke.

[@blocks4857]

@@anueutsuho7425 yeah I wished more icebergs did that

[@mariajimenafigueroa233]

Honestly, I prefer icebergs with obscure stuff for the final layers because A) I want to know stuff that not a lot of people talk about and B) I can not take any iceberg with these generic, cliche and unscary "EvErY cOpY oF x Is PeRsOnAlIZeD" entries for the final layers anymore. It's just useless filler, not even those .exe creepypastas were that annoying.

[@MetaKnuxXbeats]

Can't believe I missed out on this and yes, I just finished watching it. Worth the 4 hours. So glad that the Kirby series has this beast of an Iceberg.

[@ghirahimlefabuleux8984]

Some remarks. Why did Sectonia turn into a bee? Well the pause screen says that she "fed on countless hosts and that she doesn't remember what she used to look like". It's safe to assume that the bee form is not even Sectonia but just some random person she hijacked after being driven insane by the mirror. Also the "Underworld" was invented for Star Allies not Squeak Squad. In the original japanese version Dark Nebula is said to be the ruler of darkness/shadow/whatever other generic dark word you can think of. The ruler of the underworld thing was made up by the translation team to sound cool I guess. Morpho Knight is the only being we know is canonically linked to the underworld. About the dark matters with copy abilities being Kirby clones. That's unlikely. What's more likely is that copy abilities are some sort of birthright reserved to Void. We know that Dark Matter has the ability to replicate anything from memory. Kirby also does that in Super Star where it is even tied to his copy abilities and in Star Allies. Void does it too. Copy abilities are probably an extansion of this power since you need an aspect of what you copy before you do it in most cases. Gooey and Kirby copy by tasting the enemy while Dark Matter and Void seems to do it by memory even if Void also gains access to the Sister's weapon after eating them. All this nonsense probably comes from Void since it is pretty much the source of Kirby and Dark Matter.

[@enzoul777]

Kirby Clash armor descriptions and Miiverse also argue towards this idea yeah nothing related to the mirror

[@Electrosa]

It's confirmed that the bee body is a body that she stole, and the timeline suggests she took this body pretty early into her corruption. This comes from the now-defunct miiverse posts.

[@BlusterTheBenevolent]

I believe those posts, or something from “Word of God” claims that Sectonia’s form you see in the game is a wasp, not a bee. A parasitic wasp. That feeds on countless hosts, such as spiders.

[@TheRealSuperKirby]

@@BlusterTheBenevolent guess they flipped the table.

[@getdownforthemaintenance6881]

I thought that she looked more like a wasp than a bee, which makes sense. She was originally a tarantula, and there are wasps that prey on tarantulas irl. She became her own enemy.

[@BillZypher]

I think the reason Rainbow Curse originally had four Bandana Dees was because the Wii U was designed to generally allow up to five players to play a game at once, one player using the gamepad and the others using Wii remotes. The reason the cyan Bandana Dee was cut probably has to do with technical issues.

[@donkeykong6426]

maybe also with dedede and meta knight even if you wanted to play as them in single player

[@BillZypher]

@@donkeykong6426 I feel like Dedede and Meta Knight were most likely planned as bosses, along with possibly Chef Kawasaki who also had a figurine despite otherwise being absent. The main reason I feel this way is due to the game reusing Whispy Woods, Hooplagoon, and the Claykken for Worlds 4, 5, and 6 rather than giving those worlds unique bosses.

[@ElmoBlaster3000]

cyan Bandana Dee is adorable, why couldn't they have replaced another Bandana Dee with the cyan one?

Another example of Kirby's teeth actually is in Kirby Super Star when he uses the Crash ability. Luckily the remake removed it in favor of remaking the animation from Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land.

[@aprinnyonbreak1290]

[@stephaniefranklin-marr]

Another anime link because this is my favorite obscure Kirby fact: the anime in episode 34 (a recipe for disaster) features an extended version of the very short Gourmet Race intro cutscene song from Super Star (this track is called Ultimate Iron Man ~ Chef Oosaka) and this song was included on the Kirby and the Amazing Mirror Sound Plus CD (Club Nintendo exclusive) along with the Amazing Mirror OST and some other songs from the anime. this song was then rearranged to be the background music for the Special Blooper Reel in Super Star Ultra, and then rearranged AGAIN for stage 2 of Scope Shot in Return to Dreamland (this version is titled vs. Mecha Kawasaki, also includes a bit of the Lor Starcutter theme!) this same version is used once in Star Allies, in Far-Flung Starlight Heroes, extra planet alpha, in the midboss fight with Twin Kawasaki. its such a rare song to the point where it doesnt play in another other battles with kawasaki in Star Allies. its bizarre. kind of considered to be his “theme song” at this point even though the usage has been so sparse. however it is an absolute banger

Well this is the longest iceberg I've seen by far and I watched the Rhythm Heaven one. The first kirby iceberg video (the one that was sadly taken down then reuploaded by the chart creator) is one of my absolute favorites, like it is one of the rare videos on my favorites playlist even. While I still like the vibes of that one way better personality (probably for being so pure and now nostalgic) this is still an undeniable great effort for what it is and an absolute encyclopedia. I can tell you must've been inspired by that chart too. I still enjoy making charts myself but don't have the energy to do huge ones like this anymore even if I still think about it so kudos to you lol. This and the original are absolutely better than that other "ultimate" one cough cough. But yeah I absolutely love looking into Kirby stuff, oddities, etc there's something about the series that makes it so fun and intriguing, and it's great seeing someone compile and love it all too. I don't know if I'd consider this feedback you want but if you wanna hear anything I guess now I just really enjoy the more conversational tone in that other Kirby video and the Mish Koz Mario 64 one if you at all wanna look into tone change but that's purely personal taste.

[@mypaldracunyan1223]

Great video dude! I actually agree with The Old Tower Negative Aura theory, I'm happy that I'm not the only one who thinks that way! For me, it's due to how LONG and TEDIOUS it is when trying to find all the treasures there. Just a whole lot of backtracking. Not to mention when arriving at The Old Tower, it's in a secluded area after going on a minecart. When bypassing The Old Tower everything feels fine afterward, and I can enjoy playing The Great Cave Offensive. There's just something...........off about The Old Tower that makes me feel a sense of frustration

It's MY sleepover and I get to choose the movie! I have literally sat through the Whole Darn Thing.

I got stuck on that level for DAYS, just going back and forth through it all for hours, it was fairly stressful.

[@yosburbgur6849]

Yes, I agree with the old tower negative aura. First thing is that the place is like a maze, if you don't know where you are going you are going to be stuck for a long time, if you want all treasures. The traps and puzzles that can make you feel stuck. Halting the momentum you had from earlier. Second is the weird randomness to the area, there really isn't a consistent theme. One room filled with wind, another with fire on the floors ect. It just does not fit the theme of an old building, it's completely random, unlike the other stages where there is a theme. Third, it feels like a void. Dark areas, big empty areas, and odd color schemes. There are lots of darker colors in this area, and when you clear a room of it's enimies it ends up feeling hollow. Fourth, your mind wanders questioning the how and why. Why is there a huge tower deep underground? Does dreamland have more secrets to it that we don't know? What lived here? There is no answer given. You just move on. That's my reasons why.

[@PoyoDreamer]

3:33:38 behind the moble you will see Acro's fin coming out of Kirby's back.

[@WhatTheFnu]

I think the "negative aura" around Old Tower is pretty simple to explain: the area is just a pain. All the other levels are practically linear shots from A to B, but Old Tower is more open, which makes it more difficult to remember where you have and have not been already. Combine that with just how big the area is, and anyone who's played through it once will hit it again, remember all the time they wasted on needless backtracking the first time, and go "Yup. That's enough Kirby for today."

So I decided to finally check out this monolith of a Kirby iceberg, and I have to say... that it was pretty amazing! I surprisingly knew quite alot of things on here, as I too have some deep knowledge about the series, but there were some things here that I was surprised to learn about as well. Just a quick correction regarding the ''Miyamoto and Yellow Kirby'' segment though; the whole thing regarding Miyamoto wanting Kirby to be yellow while Sakurai insisted that his pink creation be, well, pink is actually a common misconception, as Kirby was depicted as being pink even as far back as when he was known as Popopo. In an interview regarding the development of Kirby's Adventure, Miyamoto said that he thought that Kirby would be yellow since characters like Kirby would typically end up with that color (i.e. Pac-Man), but he was pleasantly surprised to see Kirby depicted as being pink instead. That being said, this misinterpretation was referenced in later games through the use of a yellow Kirby typically being a second player starting with Keeby in Dream Course. All that aside though, this was a great watch and is worth the almost five hours spent watching it. Outstanding work!

the bubble kirby on the sharbon art was probably the ability kirby would get if he sucks up sharbon.

This is easily the best iceberg video I've ever seen, it's obvious you love the franchise and researched a lot about all the entries, not like most icebergs where they talk like 15 seconds about most of them lol. I was planning just having the video on the background while I did other things but it was so interesting I had to watch it like a movie, paying attention to everything. Really hope you keep making videos with the same amount of passion!

The Kirby Iceberg Movie

[@mountainking1051]

You did an absolutely amazing job getting all this information together, man. It rather say this was the most obscure content related to Kirby I've ever seen. None other iceberg I watched before talked about most of the topics in here

[@michirioof5682]

THIS IS AMAZING Really dude, super underrated

[@tripps3631]

Oh Boy! Nearly 5 hours of Kirby Lore! Thanks so much for making this, dude!

Did i just watch a 5h kirby video? yes Was it worth it? yes Good video mate! well edited, engaging and very well written! definitly subbing!

[@dravenmartinez6311]

This is the longest and most in depth iceberg that is based on a game franchise and I love it.

[@SophisticatedGoat222]

Great video, I was surprised to learn a few things in the lower layers of the iceberg. Clearly very well researched, and I appreciate that you didn't leave out any information in an attempt to shorten the video. The main criticism I would give for your channel moving forward would be to invest in a higher quality mic, as the audio isn't consistent throughout the video, and it often becomes louder in one ear than the other or has some pops or crackles. Beyond that, I think your format is good, and I hope to see your channel grow.

[@GuessWhosBaaack]

I really really enjoyed this video! It's obvious that you haven't made these often before (audio shifts, repeated comments, bit of stuttering at times, etc.) but in no way does that deter from the enjoyment. It's incredibly detailed and I think it's a really good start to a youtube career into this kind of stuff. It's honestly super impressive! I hope to see more from you :)

[@ArekusaSan]

I think this is my 3rd time rewatching this iceberg… I may have a problem Also, that “weird creature” at 3:58:56 might actually be Kirby. Since Sharbon blows bubbles, it looks like a mock-up for a Bubble Kirby ability.

[@donovansweeney9114]

Worth all 4 hours and 50 minutes. Incredible job.

[@okayiguess74]

About 5 hours of Kirby iceberg? You got my attention and subscription

[@stkproduction]

4:08:51 With Context (after a few panels): Kirby actually inflated his cheeks with suction cups so they'll resemble breasts so he'll breastfeed Dedede (that surprisingly turned into a baby from Kirby's Crazy Mixed Drink) like a Mother. Like I said earlier, after a few moments, Coo and Rick kicked Kirby telling him that it's impossible to breastfeed like that with suction cups popping out and Kirby deflating his Cheeks. It does sound very weird even when *I* say it. I actually like reading that kind of Kirby Manga, tho. It's pretty hilarious, but I enjoy it, regardless. But yeah, the entire plot of that part of the Manga Story was pretty bizarre. But surprisingly, nice work on the Iceberg! ^^

[@Pig3on471]

Also they aren't suction cups in pretty sure, these are Coners shells.

[@El_Omar2203]

That was one long yet wonderful Iceberg video, specially for an starting channel, here's just some things to point out: Chef Kawasaki actually appears in Nightmare in Dream Land he's an opponent on the quick draw minigame, although is not his normal attire and I still think he appearing in the commercial was sort of misunderstanding. The Cafe 84 also has a different plate, this one signed by Mr. Kumazaki and it includes drawings of King Dedede, Meta Knight and Bandana Dee.

Awesome iceberg, not the biggest kirby fan but was entertained for almost 5 hours

[@porkboianimations]

this maybe the longest iceberg i have seen but i love kirby thank for making this

[@Koko-pm4qq]

I've sat throught the whole thing across 2 days, was pretty enjoyable and glad the mic issues were relatively sorted. It has kinda rekindled a love for the franchise and now I'm wondering about cosplaying Meta Knight or Galacta Knight. I was expecting Bouncy Tiff to show up honestly when NSFW was mentioned, but that second one was waaaaaaaay worse. I enjoyed the obscure info.

[@mariajimenafigueroa233]

Bouncy Tiff (or Fumu in Japan)?

Huh, didn't think that wallpaper that Gilvasunner and other kirby music posters used for Kirby 64 came from something so obscure and so close to being lost media

Amazing video, thanks so much for putting all of this together 😍

[@sparksaturn1731]

listened to this whole thing during a shift at mcdonalds this was perfect to play in the background waiting for customers and just filling the silence and while cleaning. amazing wokr man you did an Amazing Mirror Job i hope you make more of these😁

[@cafeidiom]

Regarding 4:19:03, A-PAB is the Association for Promotion of Advanced Broadcasting Services, and they govern what TV channels broadcast what programs. Its likely that either one of the channels that originally broadcasted the anime (TV Tokyo, TBS, Tokyo MX, Kids Channel) or Nintendo themselves contacted A-PAB, who removed it on their behalf. It appears that A-PAB handles the copyright and distribution rights of shows aired on TV, but I'm not entirely sure since I had to run everything through Google Translate (lol). All in all, I'm pretty confident in saying that its another case of Japan having very different copyright protection laws than America, which is why the Reanimation project was struck in the first place.

[@Kuramaho]

1:34:40 you forgot to mention that in kirby super star his teeth show when you use crash ability 2:29:00 they appear together in some official art

Why is the kirby of the stars pilot so creepy?? It's so unsettling like your just left thinking "where tf is tuff. Where tf Are the waddle dees. Where tf is chef kawasaki. Where tf is escargoon." It just seems so empty with the fact there are 4 characters.

Bro, this are the kind of videos I live for! Great job, loved it! 💖

[@Rexis102]

For the Old Tower in Great Cave Offensive, I think something that causes the negative aura is the fact that this area is the only skippable/unnecessary one. You don’t have to enter the Old Tower, you can just progress through the game into the next area and beat Great Cave Offensive without ever having entered the tower. I propose that because the Old Tower is *entirely* optional, unlike the rest of the Great Cave Offensive’s main areas, it gives a feeling like you’re going out of your way to play it. And if you’re not playing Great Cave Offensive for 100% treasures, then what’s the motivation for exploring it? You may not directly think it’s unnecessary, but the game sure gives the impression like it is, which subconsciously dampens your motivation for it since mostly everything up to that point has had some degree of necessity and linearity to it.

[@marioizthebest]

Nightmare in Dreamland was the second Kirby game I played (after Super Star), and 8 yr old me was actually a little confused when I beat the game and never saw fighter. At the time, I assumed I'd just missed it, but it is strangely reassuring to learn that it was not actually MY oversight, but the box art designer's (albeit almost 20 years later). Bravo on the fantastic video, Kirby is the best Nintendo IP :D

For future reference, a shot of the majority of the Kirby novel-exclusive characters is 1:49:52
