In The Mind of: Kirby

[@MegaKirbySuperstar]

wwww I love this. Normally I hate kirby theories that frame kirby as evil since it neglects that Kirby is also a child. Children have a more narrow way of processing good and evil as well as reacting to trauma. Kirby being attacked once before, lead him to be on the defensive. King Dedede being an adult, if sometimes unrefined and a rascal, still remains concerned for dreamland and even Kirby when things get truly dangerous. Than their friendship grows more and their rivalry remains but on much better terms now.

[@imortal333]

It's annoying that a lot of people forget that Kirby is a child and has the very straightforward mind-set of one; quick to put the blame on someone who seems to be an obvious culprit, and his single-minded determination to fulfill a goal without thinking it through. He's matured a lot since the old days when he and Dedede fought against each other for seemingly petty reasons, and now the two actually seem to be friends of sorts after the grudge match. At the very least, he doesn't assume on the spot that Dedede is behind whatever disaster befalls dreamland. That being said, he still makes mistakes, like with Magolor, but to be fair, he fooled Dedede and Meta Knight too.

[@metaking1008]

Bridget Cru Kirby's not evil it's part of his personality a bit impulsive if you say.

[@HannahBanina]

I clicked on this expecting to frown in disdain at yet another troll trying to paint Kirby as an unrelenting douchebag. But I _love_ where it ended up going: Kirby's growing up and _learning_. He knows now that Dedede isn't that bad a guy, just kindof a dick sometimes, and even that's been changing over the years. In hindsight, my expectations were pretty unfounded considering I loved your video about K. Rool as well. _Kirby_ can be a surprisingly deep series sometimes, and that said, this is a pretty good assessment of his character. The kid's really growing into his role as Hero of Popstar and I love that. Nice work!

[@KingJGrim]

Thank you. Yes, Kirby gets a lot of videos about how "Evil" he is, but I feel like those are simply to get a reaction from people.

[@Lenare]

Wow a Kirby timeline based on their relationship with Dedede? Fascinating... and it works too!

[@BurmudaTriangleTV]

I find it sad that Dedede didn't get a bigger role in Planet Robobot. If you must know, he's absent during the entire game due to the fact that his castle is destroyed with him in it, and Kirby doesn't know until the game ends. Dedede does get clones of him though.

[@joshshrum2764]

[@DustyMusician]

Yes. This 100%. This video is perfect and I have no idea how this flies over a lot of people's heads but Kirby is a character who primarily learns to forgive. You can see this, although to a different degree, in his interactions with Meta Knight, too.

[@KingJGrim]

Didn't do much research on the connection between Kirby and Meta Knight, but glad that there is more evidence to support my video! And I'm glad that you enjoyed it!

[@PaintraSeaPea]

I love that aspect of forgiveness in the kirby games! pretty much most of kirby's friends were once enemies to him (the squeak squad, taranza, magolor) and it's just so nice to see these characters actually change and grow and forgive.

[@thebeavpercabethftw9604]

I guess Susie from Planet Robobot and Claycia from Rainbow Curse are reformed Kirby villains too. You guys think we'll get another reformed villain in Star Allies?

[@chaselanglands6757]

Not really, no reformation happens on screen. But the backstory behind them kinda makes you feel sorry for three of the villains

[@matti.8465]

Dusty I think Meta Knight changed more because of Kirby than the other way around. Kirby never had much of a grudge on his besides his only attempt at doing something bad (his first apearance doesn't count because he was helping Dedede contain Nightmare). But the trust between them has grown a lot.

[@PaintraSeaPea]

it's so refreshing to see someone who hasn't played a kirby game actually try to understand the nature of his character and his relationship with dedede, since these characters and their relationship are so often misconstrued. very accurate and well put together analysis!

[@mistamonke7505]

I mean we can't really like be too harsh on Kirby's thought process he is like a baby in their world

[@wreathofpalmaria]

He is kid, but not a baby. He is only a baby in the anime. In the games he is a kid, and is capable of speech.

[@babyyoshi3099]

@Sonicthehedgehoggamer Yes.

[@slateoffate9812]

As for justifying Kirby attacking and eating normal enemies and bosses: Kirby Dream Land: The enemies were working for Dedede. Adventure: The enemies were working for Dedede and Meta Knight. Dream Land 2: Um...I'm up for suggestions. Dream Land 3: This is Dark Matter's second invasion. As Kirby knows Dark Matter can possess people, he doesn't know who to trust? 64 Crystal Shards: Same as Dreamland 3. Dyna Blade: Dyna Blade was destroying crops, thus food was scarce for Dreamland. Violence would break out. Great Cave Offensive: This lot have been underground, alone, for quite some time. There is a chance they'd be territorial. Revenge of Meta Knight: They were working with Meta Knight. As for Whispy Woods and Twin Woods, storywise(not gameplay), they might have attacked first. Amazing Mirror: It was corrupted and everything was likely under Dark Mind's control. Shadow Kirby being an exemption because Kirby was split in 4. Canvas Curse: They were likely being controlled by Drawcia. Squeak Squad: They were working for Meta Knight, Dedede, and the Squeaks. Mass Attack: Most were working for Necrodeus and Dedede. Epic Yarn: Yin Yarn was controlling them. Return: Popstar:They opposed Dedede and/or Meta Knight and thus opposed Kirby by association. Halcandra: The ruler of Halcandra thought our heroes were working with Magolor. Sphere Doomers: They were hostile because Kirby was invading their territory. Triple Deluxe: They obeyed Sectonia or blamed Kirby for getting them into the land of the sky. Planet Robobot: Some were mechanized and/or working with Haltman. Others were frightened. People and animals sometimes become hostile when frightened.

People really underestimate the power of the Kirby soundtrack. It has some REALLY good songs. *Edit: Thought I would clarify in case you did not know, that was the actual song that played in the game at that part.

[@pkdotts]

Everyone says that in Kirby Adventure, Kirby was an idiot for not listening to Dedede at the beginning, but imagine if Kirby didn't restore the Star Rod, no one in Dreamland would be able to dream again. Plus, Kirby defeated nightmare anyways. So Dedede did keep Nightmare from taking over Dreamland but he didn't defeat Nightmare, he just kept the people of Dreamland from dreaming instead of trying to defeat Nightmare. So Kirby did the right thing in that instance.

[@DJ_Raywave]

Pkfier Exactly. I find it absolutely genius because all this time Kirby, instead of simply letting enemies, evil objects and Eldritch Abominations be, he charges full tilt and destroys them before they can become a problem.

[@Fannintendociccio1]

Soo, this video was pretty nice, especially because i never read the manual of kirby's adventure before(pretty interesting!), and the ending of the video made me all fuzzy inside😁, but i have some small tiny complains. First of all, it lacks the ESSENTIAL mentions of dreamland 2 and 3's stories, as they are the direct prequels of kirby 64. In those two games the relation between kirby and dedede's gets even more developement, and also brings further light to the "possible reason" for why kirby wasn't "all that concerned" about dedede in 64, as dedede has the really awful tendency to get possessed by dark powers a lot (like bowser😅). Not only that, we could also point out that neither of adeleine and ribbon showed concern over the king tecnically, even if in dreamland 3 dedede and adeleine-ado showed to be friends. Honestly, the beginning of the video about the first various games was a tiny bit too harsh on kirby's side. I agree about the story in kirby's adventure, he was kind of a big jerk (and i guess the same thing happens in squick squad), but from that point onward the two of them had only a somewhat small rivalry, that for some reason only related to food questions. We can see from the games in general how silly and happy-go-lucky kirby is. He's not the brightest guy, and neither one that likes to stop and carefully think before getting into actions. I wouldn't really call that a sign of hatred. (I doubt he even knows what that word means to begin with) He thinks of a culprit and goes for it. I do agree about what you said during the revenge of the king portion tho, as dedede really wanted to beat him to regain his pride. Anyway, this video was a really pleasant one to watch😁 keep up the good work!

[@Fannintendociccio1]

And of course, now their friendship really became a wonderful and official thing between the two😁

[@amazingamber4706]

On the adventure/squeak squad thing, kirby is just a child. He has a more basic version of good/evil is. Dedede did something bad in the past, it would only make sense to assume he would do it again

[@IidosGamingDen]

Where would Kirby Tilt 'n Tumble be placed? At the end of that one, Dedede cried after being defeated, and Kirby gave him a shoulder pat, after which they walked off together. Seemed like they were friends in that one, and Dedede was just being dumb (seriously, jealous that the starry sky got more attention than him? lol XD)

Another example of kirby becoming more forgiving is Magolor, who came back in Kirby's 20 years collections. In Return to Dreamland, Magolor tricks kirby into helping him to get the master crown, and then both fight eachother, with Magolor losing control of all his power in the process. Then the master crown was destroyed and Magolor was sent in Another Dimension, while the one they were in collapse on itself, but alas kirby and its friends. Except Magolor comes back, as a friend to kirby. No other villain before had done this, because (almost) every villain died after fighting kirby. The dark matters, 0 and 0², Nightmare, Dark Mind, heck even Marx did not survive while he did almost exactly what Magolor did! Granted, they were mostly pure forms of evil even a supercomputer can't fully understand, but still. Yet Magolor was forgiven. In Kirby's 20 years collection, he even made a whole amusement park for kirby, racing with him for fun, even if the last one is a bit more serious. And in Team Kirby Clash Deluxe, he's got a shoppe to help kirby. Most kirby villains nowadays are spared by kirby: Claycia, Taranza, Susie even if she wasn't controlled by evil forces like the first two. The pink puffball has learned over the years to forgive, because as he beat more and more villains, he understood that not everyone is a black blob of evil and hatred.

[@wanster2010]

This is a bit... how should i say... misunderstood? I mean its only that way because you havent played the other games, but dont get mad, theres just a few things i wanna point out that you missed from the games you mentioned in the video: -Meta knight is not evil, but nor is he good. He is literally the batman of this franchise, helping kirby out when necessary, but also punishing him if he is in the wrong. -dark matter and dark nebula are the same character, dark matter was not killed in his game, but rather sealed, and we can infer by squeak squad that he was sealed in a magical chest. In fact, kirby games make it clear that an unknown dark antagonist is dark matter reborn if they have the following: - one single red eye - the color black or purple. - daroach, the mouse with a red cape and tophat (the leader of the squeak squad) is in the same position as meta knight, neither a villain or hero.... hes just a thief, and likes stealing for the sake of... idk, riches? Point is, he turns over a new leaf in the endgame of kirby squeak squad. - the waddle dee that watches dedede's grudge match in super star ultra is known as "Bandana waddle dee", dedede's loyal right hand general.

Revenge of the king spawned the best kirby theme in the series

[@c0baltl1ghtn1ng]

5:40 Incorrect: That was Zero's doing, not the shard: The shard was merely what Zero was after, Dedede was just in the way. Both Dedede and Meta Knight are more of anti-heroes in the Kirby universe: In the anime King D. had a park built for Kirby from the belief that Pop Star was going to be destroyed by a meteorite, whereas in at least one of the games Meta Knight is trying to prove himself as the strongest being in the Galaxy. Dedede will always be a greedy king, but he knows when and how to see the bigger picture, and Meta Knight will always be challenging bigger and bigger enemies, including Kirby himself. And yes, Kirby IS the hero. You seen what all he's defeated, yeah? From Zero 2 to Void Termina, Nightmare 'n' Marx, Kirby time and time again kills eldritch horrors, for he himself is one.

[@gaidencastro9706]

[@pikminfreak0011]

Kirby and Dedede's relationship is best summed up in the anime, honestly. Sometimes they're friends, sometimes they're enemies, each doesn't want to admit they care about the other, etc. There's two episodes in particular that specifically show that Dedede cares (one where everyone thinks the world's gonna end, another where Dedede thinks he killed Kirby).

[@zeoxdragon]

Kirby is a baby, he doesn't use his head in a rational sense, when you say 5:52Is not that he dislikes Dedede, is just that he is a kid, and once the bad guy is defeated he is happy that he won and runs away to get more crystals... also you skipped the whole dark matter saga with dream land 2 and 3... and you called Zero Two "O2".Also at 7:51 , dark nebula (the star) is actually another variant of Dark matter (the dark ball with orange petals) so technically there is a connection of villains there.10:27 and this is not the first time you fight Dedede being controlled, Dream land 2 and dream land 3 already had that as the false final fight. I don't really think you played enough kirby games and know enough of the franchise.Kirby is a baby with the power of a god, he is selfish and too innocent, when Dedede does bad, he thinks Dedede = bad guy and already expects him to do bad, specially if suddenly food is gone, because that's usually what Dedede does.

[@babyyoshi3099]

Zero Two is refered to as O2 frequently. Even HAL themselves refer to him as O2. Also, this guy has not really played many Kirby games at all, so I understand why he missed some stuff. I will cut him some slack for not knowing that Dark Nebula was Dark Zero, and missing several games in the timeline. He still got the point across, so no need to be mad.

[@mrmanakin9684]

Kirby is only a baby in the anime, even then he was not a baby :/

[@oasis9009]

I like to separate the old Kirby games and new ones in a way similar to Sonic, with Modern and Classic Kirby. I think Classic ended with Super Star Ultra and Modern began with KRTDL. In the classic games, Kirby was a hero with barely any allies, and in the modern ones, he befriends everyone he sees, and for the first time has game-spanning friends: Meta Knight, Dedede, and Bandana Dee. My question is, (especially with Bandana Dee and Dedede) why are they friends all of a sudden?

That endingI love how Kirby and Dedede finally settle a decades of a grudge just to come together and save what they both so care about equally.

[@Yipper64]

1:05 he wants to take a nap. Thats his motivation. Cant take a nap with eldritch abominations mucking about so Kirby gotta take care of that.

[@MiiUTheFirst]

Then in Star Allies Dedede starts pulling a Dreamland and Kirby goes on another rampage to King Dedede, whilst destroying everything in his path. After beating Dedede, a dark heart emerges, and Kirby being Kirby, completely ignores Dedede and goes on yet another rampage, tracking the hearts down to deep space, and destroying every last bit of anything related to the thing that interrupted his nap.

[@huh2340]

DeDeDe had so much crap don to him. Even his "evil deeds" of stealing food was for feeding his subjects. He had to do what kings had to do: take care of his subjects. Sure, he might have been heartless, but he put his underlings before anything else.

0:39 I think almost everyone first came into contact with Kirby in smash 64. I personally never even played a smash game yet, let alone a Kirby game, so my first time playing a game with Kirby in it was with star allies.

[@EvyDevy]

Awwwwwww, that's adorable for a timeline. UNFORTUNATELY!!!, Squeak Squad happens some time after Super Star as we see Meta Knight's ship sunk in that game after it sunk in Super Star. And it was confirmed in a Miiverse post that Triple Deluxe happens right after Super Star... soooooo yeahhhhhhhhh. Not unless the games in Super Star are split.

[@Eseseso494]

I think Kirby has serious depression, but he’s never shown it. I can explain why.

Who needs a universe with your brothers and sisters When you have C A K E

[@TheOnlyTherazan]

We do dream every night. More than once per night, too, though it's very common to forget most, if not all dreams. Not dreaming would be indeed some very bad sleep.

[@Liam-qj8ti]

Moral of the story: Kingg Dedede is actually awesome And bro how don't you have more subs This was great thank you

[@cybo_vampire9145]

Also, I recommend watching the Kirby anime to get a good understanding of Kirby's personality. He's not evil, he's just oblivious.

[@rinbobethir6425]

*Robobot. However: Great video! I love theories like this.

[@KingJGrim]

+DieAusrastfunktion Damn it, I always make a stupid mistake haha Anyway, yes there will be future videos like this!

[@randomd00d19]

That was beautiful, dude. I never caught on to the character arcs of these two.

[@ChronoTriggerHappy]

Dedede helps because he always realizes he can't be Monarch of Dream World if there IS NO Dream World. He's very much like Bowser in that aspect that he doesn't want to destroy the world or anything but rule it instead. That means occasionally having to help his rival, Kirby, instead of hindering him.

[@Rabbids_Go_Home]

The timeline is mostly just in order of each games release, Kirby fights so save worlds, people, dreams and food. also king Dedede is only evil once the other times it’s a misunderstanding or demonic possession.

[@chaselanglands6757]

Kirby's story with Dedede actually explains why he was so willing to forgive Susie in Planet Robobot... Awesome!

[@Yipper64]

So to summarize the kirby lore at least between Kirby and his main rival, Dedede starts off as a bad dude stealing all the food in dreamland and Kirby saves the day... but he holds a grudge. From then on even if Dedede has done nothing wrong Kirby blames him for all the problems. Then Kirby establishes dominance by defeating him on a 1v1 and they become friends.

“Everyone and their mothers” Has iconic image from the mother series. Perfect

[@Elmithian]

I really can't understand why these don't get more views... I mean the production quality alone is better than 99.99% of the content that most game focused channels have.

[@KingJGrim]

KZbin is difficult man. It is where reaction channels gets million of views, and scripted videos do not. A cruel world indeed. But in all seriousness, I'll work with this series for a long time, so hopefully people will find me eventually

[@InktheImpassive]

He has his reasons For example: Dedede steals all food and Kirby has to stop him. Or some rich guy is turning Kirby's planet into a robotic world and Kirby has to stop whoever does this, or darkness came on the planet and Kirby came to investigate and stop the darkness

[@owonapikins]

This is a amazing video! I started noticing this as well in the games but never this far... thanks!

[@Skulboi_9]

i would argue that i think is in Kirby: battle royale when you have another duel with King Dedede, it's stated that is ''Dedede's last shot for revenge''

[@PreVtuberChannel]

Wow, this actually made me laugh and cry holy shit lol The way you tell it is absolutely grand
