Kirby Gameplay Vs Kirby Lore

[@sonicfan82]

Yeah, at the surface it’s cute but when you look into the lore, it’s really deep. I like Kracko lore.

Kracko has lore? Now I wanna hear

[@Memer10157]

@@samba1one531canonically, Kracko is a “lord of the sky”, and can appear anywhere “as long as there are clouds in the sky”, and will always return after defeat (I think this means he’s immortal?). He takes his losses to Kirby very personally and mainly fights Kirby to try and take revenge. In Squeak Squad, when Kirby faces off against a robot double of Kracko made and controlled by Doc, Kracko seemingly feels betrayed about being “replaced”. There may be more I’ve forgotten, but I think that’s all of it.

@@Memer10157 Good points! Also, I remember in a pause screen in kirby fighters (or one of those games) he also mentions he hated when kirby used the high jump ability on him (referencing the fight in kirbys adventure)

Possibly the darkest game in terms of lore is Planet Robobot. Haltmann lost his daughter, tampered with a cosmic entity to try and get her back, but when she did come back, he forgot about her. He fused with star dream, who tried erasing the universe, forcing kirby to stop it, going inside of it to kill its heart, only for him to wipe Haltmann out of existence in the process. Not dead, ERASED.

Or forgotten land

Dude 3ds and switch eras of Kirby have been COOKING with the lore and darker concepts. Robobot and triple deluxe both had extremely tragic back stories behind them that go unreasonably hard, (I would not be able to pick a favorite story of the two if my life depended on it) and on the switch? Star allies can speak for itself. I mean void ALONE dude. Lore in the Kirby franchise is looking good and getting better with no signs of stopping, and I am here for it.

I am a kirby fan since the early 3ds and even was playing before. I can relate and confirm the meme of this video.

A creepy part of Kirby is that ever since Planet Robobot (even in remakes), there has been a scary reoccuring trope that not a lot of people bring up: *At a late point of the game or in the postgame, there is a boss fight where a character is forced to do something they don't want to and they are vocalising in pain because of it.* 1. Kirby Planet Robobot: Haltmann is assimilated by Star Dream and in the latter's Soul OS fight, the former screams in pain as each pillar is destroyed. Once Star Dream Soul OS is defeated, Haltmann screams again. However, this time, his scream is distorted, which has some horrific implications. 2. Kirby Star Allies: During the Hyness fight, the Mage Sisters are drained of their life energy and their bodies become transparent. They groan in pain when Hyness does certain attacks. 3. Kirby and the Forgotten Land: Both of these are implications. When Fecto Forgo controls Leon during the Forgo Leon fight, he seems to be screaming in pain because the possession hurts him. Forgo Leon's body movements also imply this pain further (for example, one of his attacks has him fire a laser beam like he's vomiting). When you fight Fecto Forgo itself, its boss theme has animals howling in distress. This is implied to be the animals in Fecto Forgo's amalgamate form screaming for help. 4. Kirby's Return to Dreamland Deluxe: The second phase of the Magolor Soul fight (only fought in the True Arena) has him crying out for help in pain as he is being controlled by the Master Crown. The lore confirms that the Master Crown controls its hosts with no mercy like a parasite.

0:02 You can say "Awww so cute" on me Bandana Dee & Elfilin sleeping but I need to educate you guys about my lore 😊

What's the image in the background of the thumbnail I'm kinda morbidly curious

[@aad356]

I couldn’t find the image anymore, but from what i remember, Kirby swallowed something and soon his body was disfiguring until it was grotesque. It isn’t really part of the lore or canon, just some body horror comic.

[@rocky.sroger8855]

@@aad356 yeah that's what I figured given how it's related to video

[@masonasaro2118]

kirby ate a dark matter, mutated, and a nearby dark matter manipulates him into attacking dream land.
