Galacta Knight | What is Kirby Canon?

[@Skypatroller_BenCD]

Honestly I found that amusing that Galacta just destroyed Star Dream just because he made him travel through time against his will! It's like if a boss just killed a random bad guy just because he wakes him up too early or something

Hahahahaha hahahaha. A reference to your Morpho Knight video. I like it.

[@ToxicPea]

I fear this may be the end of our Galactic Space-Time friend. Star Allies sought to tie up loose ends and put an end to a 25+ long Dark-matter arc in Kirby's story. With that being said, Galacta Knight's apparent death at the hands of the butterfly may very well have put a stop to his space-time shenanigans once and for all...unless Galacta Knight from the past gets summoned into the future aga- Too confusing. Brain hurts.

[@charlestetreault739]

I think Galacta Knight will eventually make his first "canonical" appearance, as implied by Bandana Dee in Super Kirby Clash and I'm looking forward to it. Probably won't happen soon though, guess Kumazaki realized that having 4 games with Galacta Knight fights might have oversaturated his first Kirby character. That's why we get Morpho for now, but Galacta is too good to go to waste. His implications for Meta Knight's and Kirby's potential must be explored.

[@ToxicPea]

@@charlestetreault739 And one way or another, they shall.

[@whambamduel]

Given the fact that Elfilis was able to recover from Morpho knight absorbing it, I do feel like Galacta Knight will also reappear, perhaps in some new Chaotic form.

[@rebirthphoenix5646]

Yeah they did hint at a possible canonical appearance unless Bandanna Waddle Dee was hinting to Guest Star which would be disappointing. If he does though I’m hoping he has a major antagonist role or at least importance in the game or overall storyline he’s really one of the most interesting characters we’ve seen in the entire series.

[@ToxicPea]

@@rebirthphoenix5646 Hmmm, it's been a long time since I beat Super Kirby clash. Would you happen to remember what Dee said exactly?

[@dimitrimoisiades7292]

I heard a theory about the reason why he fights. Basically, in a similar way to Ganon, the cycle of being sealed away, only to fight and be sealed again, has hurt Galacta knight mentally, so whenever he has consciousness he’s a powerful force of nature that can’t think properly or be reasoned with. But he eventually got tired of this cycle. So when the butterfly appears in star allies he made a deal with it. The butterfly would end the cycle for him. But in turn, the butterfly gets Galacta Knight’s soul.

[@hamzahchambers2776]

It's only a matter of time before his spirit turns into a force of nature, cause an apocalypse, and force our hero to sleep for a hundred years.

[@wasquash]

that actually makes a lot more sense. i figured that morpho knight was just hunting him down because he dodged death somehow

[@adammyers7383]

Since there’s supposed to be four of these ancient heroes, we’ll probably meet the others at some point! Also, Morpho Knight’s appearance in Forgotten Land does imply that all the extra modes Galacta Knoght has appeared in are canon in some capacity-like you said, canon *to him*

[@patrickserrats6919]

There is theory that morpho knights appearence is just the butterflys true form and will always reach that form even without the influence of absorbing galacta knight (Although its probably just HAL rehashing the design because they didnt want to make a new form with forgo)

[@MorrisPXG]

[@funnyguyseek1639]

[@ChristopherMoom]

1:10 Maybe Galacta Knight getting mad at how he was forcefully summoned is a metaphor for how HAL just threw him in Robobot with a mostly re-used moveset from RTDL, this franchise's meta-commentary is wild, up there with the likes of UNDERTALE All jokes aside, there's a lot of cool implications about Galacta Knight (Like how he's possibly one of the 4 heroes of yore), but I'd love to see HAL actually do something with them in the future; great redux of Galaxy's Knight's original Kirby Canon, there were some pretty good points brought up here

[@TheRealSuperKirby]

People really seem to misunderstand what a "what if scenario" is. It's not an alternate universe, it's a alternate time line. That means anything there HAS to be canon, if the only difference is that meta knight went on an adventure instead of kirby then everything that takes place has to still exist somewhere in the main time line, just different events happened.

[@achannelinexistence]

Yeah I like the idea that Galacta can decide to make himself cannon in certain installments when he simply feels like it.

[@poyoSC]

so the characters are canon, but the events that happen are not

[@SkyLord1846]

That’s a theory I’ve had for a long time!

[@achannelinexistence]

I get that, like neither timeline is more cannon than the other, they simply coexist.

[@rebirthphoenix5646]

That’s what I was thinking and for some time I thought that the butterfly we see in Star Allies’ “non canon” Guest Star is the same butterfly we see in Forgotten Land’s canon post game as like it can travel between timelines and dimensions though the Japanese text implies that there is more than one butterfly. Would be cool too if all the “what if’” content from across the games were all connected into one timeline.

[@umario251]

the thing is this character introduced almost 14 years ago had no reason to not have been thought of as uncanon from the start in Ultra. yet 14 years later people are still claiming so based of no evidence while evidence supports he is canon from that game alone. so it's just funny you saying lol as if when his last and first appearance are both possibly very canon.

[@Iris_Descent]

Explain in better terms, please...

[@Bethany_Bradley]

The fact that Galacta Knight has control over light and dark powers tells me that at one point he may have been corrupted by Void, similar to how Meta Knight was. But unlike Meta Knight, he has since then embraced that evil side. He was once a benevolent hero after all, so perhaps his fateful battle against Void where he sealed him away changed him for the worse somehow, or perhaps, even killed him. But how would he still be alive now, you ask? Well, like Meteorz said, we’ll get to that next time. (At least I will, we may have different canon theories, lol)

[@rebirthphoenix5646]

I assume that’s the most likely reason I mean I kind of think that Galacta Knight always had a light form but maybe after sealing Void Termina, he was corrupted like the others in Star Allies but permanently and then he was able to master a dark form at the same time.

[@BlueJack222]

Surprised you didn't mention that Hyness mentions he was betrayed by the ancients despite "sealing that GALACTIC threat." Doesn't that mean it was Hyness who sealed Galacta Knight?

When it comes to that alternate time line "What if" modes. I never took them as non cannon. The series already shows people who can pull or go threw different universes, times, dimensions. So if a "What if" story was just a different time line, those events could still exist, just not in the main time line. And with people who can jump dimensions or time line shinanagings, they theoretically could end up popping in the main time line even if they are from the "non cannon" one.

[@DukeNull]

People keep saying that Mete-Knight seemingly learned his ability to split into multiple copies after being possessed by the dark heart, but there is actually a time before this that he used the same power. Though not strictly canon in the main game, the mini-game 'STAR PATROL EOS' in mass attack featured a fight with Mete Knight. In a very similar vein to the attack in star allies and Fighters 2, he would split into several copies of himself to fire projectiles at the Kirbys. The amount of clones that appear is even influenced by the number of remaining Kirbys that you have, just as the number of Star Allie clones depends on how many dream friends you have. These were more shadowy clones though and didn't persist for long either, but it is still a note to take. Perhaps this mastered dark influence improved this ability.

[@syweb2]

In Star Allies, he splits himself, whereas in Strato Patrol, he makes shadowy ghost-images, suggesting that they are two distinct abilities, with one being tied to his ability to manipulate darkness (a la Galaxia Darkness, as shown in Meta Knightmare Returns) and the other a result of the empowerment caused by the Jamba Heart.

[@youraverageplutoenjoyer7677]

Here's an interesting theory that I know some people have: Was Fecto Elfilis one of the four heroes and has fought alongside Galacta Knight? Well, it's entirely possible. One of the first ever major events in Kirby cannon is the battle between the four heroes of yore, and Void Termina. Fecto Elfilis was captured by the ancient scientists who lived on what is now the forgotten land. It's likely that the whole ordeal between Elfilis and the ancients happened centuries, maybe aeons after Void was sealed away. We know that there has been a 30 year time period between it's capture, and the warp incident that split the being in half. (Fecto Forgo, and Elfilin.) We don't know anything about Fecto Elfilis *_BEFORE_* it arrived at the ancient's homeworld. We only know a little bit about when it first arrived, and the aftermath of it's capture. For all we know, Fecto Elfilis could have once fought alongside Galacta and the other heroes against Void all those aeons ago! But at the same time, it very well couldn't have. There just isn't enough information on the Ultimate Lifeform's past to confirm whether or not it was one of the four heroes. But if it was, then I find it cool how our good buddy Elfilin is what remains of it. Kirby, the same species as a former dark god of destruction. And Elfilin, the remnant of an ancient hero who was regarded as the "ultimate" lifeform and has fought with the likes of the "strongest" warrior in the galaxy against that same ancient dark god.

[@rebirthphoenix5646]

Yeah I never really thought much of the Fecto Elfilis being one of the heroes because of the lack of information from before it arrived in the Forgotten Land to invade. It’s possible but I don’t see it really until we get more information. Only way I can see it be a hero is if they imply it later down the line but for now we’re only told that it came from the far depths of space.

[@maitremaitre9283]

Warning : long comment ahead. Hello Meteorz, I take the return of the canon series to post a big theory I had for quite some time. I would also be happy if that inspires you to do a special video before your retirement. So, here we go. My theory is not about the canon this time, but more of the representation of the entirety of the lore. We will start with Kirby's first game : Dreamland. You can easily guess that this represents the dream world. A place where dreams go. In fact, this first game is pretty standard for a dream. A cute penguin stole food and a cute hero helped people. Things go interesting with adventure/nightmare in dreamland. Kirby fights Nightmare. Of course, fighting a nightmare in a dream world is a logical choice. Interestingly, if we take a look at Nightmare’s design, we can find a lot of elements. First, his general appearance is intimidating. A tall figure with weird elements. Then, he has reflective sunglasses. There are two things to say on that. 1, you can’t see his eyes. Eyes are windows to the soul. Nightmare hides his, if he ha sone. 2, it's reflective. The glasses are black. Looking in nightmare eyes is looking at your soul in a dark mirror. Also, Nightmare has no real body, it’s a weird tornado. He is an idea, not something. Now, let’s go to the dark matter trilogy. Dark matter is the evil that comes the most in the kirby franchise. Their general appearance is a simple eye surrounded by darkness. You thought a nightmare would be the worst enemy of a dream ? Think about it : What does an open eye represent for a dream ? The moment to wake up. That’s why dark matter seems such an antagonist to dream land. But why would waking up be that bad ? Well, to wake up, means to break the dream apart… And there may be something more we will see later. Dark matter's most interesting property is to twist and manipulate elements, turning them into a nightmare. Usually, having a nightmare means waking up. Zero and 02, the same entity and chief of the whole hivemind. Their goal was to corrupt both Popstar and Ripple star. two places you can describe as whimsical, light-hearted and almost surreal. Places that don’t really make sense from a physic point of view. Ripple star is literally inhabited by fairies. They are places of happiness. Dark matter is a being of sadness. Their goal is to destroy that happiness, a bit like your emotions would fight inside you. I think you start to see my point on this one, but more with star allies. I have a lot to say on Drawcia and color theory, but let's only do the main games. Superstar. Introduction of Marx. A pure representation of insanity, driven by his own desire for power, that once again twists a dream-like situation. The hero summons a beautiful wish-granting machine, only for it to be twisted by a deceiving monster. Now, most people said Marx betrayed Kirby. I disagree. Marx and Kirby haven't been shown to be friends. Marx misled kirby. He lied, but was never someone close to him. He is a sparkle of negativity in a place of positivity. Nobody really lies in a dream. With the same idea, let’s go to Magolor with Return to Dreamland. Here, we have a true traitor. He wanted to gain Kirby's trust and friendship to achieve his goal. Whether he was corrupted at this point or just power hungry is up to debate, but the result is the same. Th emaster crown possesses Magolor and attacks kirby. We have an embodiment of a power-hungry traitor, a close friend to Kirby at this point, attacking him. magolor was possessed by what looked like dark matter. Remember, the link to the real world. A link to the real world element caused a friend to go against you. Triple Deluxe. We will let dark matter away for a bit. Due to the connection with Amazing mirror, I will do both here. Sectonia and taranza is a tragic love story where, once again, the theme of corruption is important. The central element is the mirror. The same mirror from Amazing Mirror. You could think of it as a classic mirror world, but a mirror in a land of dream has more significance. In a dream, for most people (according to studies, I didn't experience it myself), you can't look up at yourself in a mirror directly. That either cause you to wake up in terror, and your dream will become messy. Usually because your brain has a hard time processing your own image. So a mirror in a dream is a cognitohazard. Representatively, that’s the scenario of the Amazing Mirror. But we know that’s also how Sectonia went crazy. The mirror messed her up. It trapped her in an illusion that finally shattered after Kirby defeated her. Robobot. You probably know by now, but yes we go back to corruption. Star Dream corrupted Haltmann, little by little. A wish-granting machine that destroys your mind. A wish, even good and selfless, that corrupts you and makes you different. Unlike the other antagonists, Star Dream is emotionless. Driven by pure calculated logic. And his goal was to be the central place of the universe, eliminating all living beings, resulting in the death of all emotions, negative or positive. It’s also called star dream and it grants wishes, like if someone wanted for emotions to just go away… Star Allies. The linking point between all of this. Void Termina. What is Void Termina exactly ? A heart of negativity, sealed away and let in a far away place to be forgotten about. Like repressed emotions and traumas. But traumas can’t stay hidden forever. Sometimes, small parts of them appear (dark matter) and in the end, the seal breaks, freeing all the repressed negativity, overwhelming all feelings of joy that could be. Unless something or someone can help you, something that represents joy. Allies or to put it in another way, friends. Galacta knight. Where there is evil, sometimes a knight will appear. A powerful knight with angel-like wings and bright colors destroying evil. Maybe even the one to seal negativity away. Someone that cleans the mess but doesn’t really replace it… And finally, Forgotten Land. First mainline Kirby game to be in a completely different dimension. A place away from Dreamland. A place really different too. For kirby. A place more familiar for us. A place almost too realistic. There is only a small layer that separates the dreams from memories. They often mix. bUt we already saw that place, remember ? In 64, there was a dead planet earth. And it comes back again. And in this game, the final boss is also different from the others. No ulter motive, no insanity, just evil. But what is more important is the final. Two worlds colliding. dreams and memories. Both would have been destroyed on impact. Remember how we never saw the forgotten land from space ? As if it was something hard to process. Instead we have lots of colors mixing into each other. Like a brain having a hard time reconstituting an image. Conclusion : You probably guessed my point. What if the Kirby series is a metaphor for the dream ? the dream of someone living on earth. A human having problems with his life, to the point of wanting to live in his dreams. To the point of naming his memories of reality as the Forgotten Land. A place he left, letting people he cared about behind. There is a lot of reference to emotion across the series. Especially a clash between joy and sadness. What if Kirby was an idea, something that allows the dream to continue. Someone that keeps dark thought at bay, and helps to heal the wounds of traumas. Kirby is simply the everlasting representation of hope and happiness. That’s the one that helps you in your mind, an idea that lets you go onward. Kirby is the idea that things will be better one day. Thanks for reading my essay on the metaphoric side of Kirby. I just love this franchise so much. Looking forward to the next videos :)

[@cosmicking2054]

That's a really interesting take on the Kirby Franchise, and I've never heard anything like it before! One thing I might add: in the real world, people play Kirby games and enter a "dream" as a sort of escape from reality. I'm not sure where that might fit into your theory, or even if it does at all, but it might be interesting to think about, at least.

[@maitremaitre9283]

@@cosmicking2054 That could be an interesting point to link it with our world. Dream isn't necessarely limited to a sleeping state (even though, considering the elements present, I think it's the intent) but, yeah, Kirby is supposed to be a way to cancel negativity and induce dream, so it could fit in this theory.

[@umario251]

thank you, there's more than enough evidence to support most of his appearances are canon. forgotten land is one reason, but another is even in Ultra, MK summoned Nova who was in the state not from when Kirby summoned him, but damaged, the same state after being defeated, he wasn't teleported onto the scene but came back together from being broken, missing certain pieces Marx had already absorbed to become Marx Soul, proving it all was canon, the cutscenes made to take into account both fight's with Marx before and after Nova was destroyed.

[@jennyevef]

I personally think that Galacta Knight can still appear in canon and Morpho Knight does not prevent this. I consider Morpho Knight to be the true from of the butterfly rather than a fusion of itself and the power of Galacta Knight. It can probably take that form if it absorbs ANY powerful soul.

[@Mr_Pedro_Sombrero]

I have a theory about Void, and how he may not be just related to Kirby or Dark Matter in-universe. In a Japanese text left out of Star Allies, Void is said to be the ancestor of origination, likely implying that he predates Kirby's own universe, or all universes related to the Kirby franchise. In Greek lore, there is a being named Kaos(aka Chasm), the goddess of the space between, or simply, the void. She is the ancestor of the Greek world, and predates even earth and heaven. Going back to Void, he was born of Dream, Dark, Soul, and Heart, all chaos and possibilities(this was something brought up in Meteorz' Void Termina lore video), and was born as the ancestor and origin of all. If we were to apply Kaos' logic to Void, then the Japanese text would be the true explanation for Void's character, that he is essentially the origin of Kirby and everybody else in his world. I do have another theory that Kirby and Dark Matter are essentially agents of good and evil respectively, which is why they both mirror each other in abilities and other characteristics. Meta Knight and others may be in a slighty different boat, since Meta Knight cannot copy abilities, nor is ever shown to, in spite of his similarities to Kirby.

[@supersmashbro596]

maybe the "dstroy a few planets" line werent referring to what galacta knight would do, but rather the act of summoning him would end up destroying planets as a massive amount of energy needs to be able to pull him from whatever hes doing. theres gonna be some collateral damage with summoning something so powerful. that doesnt mean it's intended.

[@protoplasm-1]

I think when Star Dream said, “He might destroy a nearby planet or two” he didn’t mean Galacta Knight is evil and actively destroyed planets, I believe he meant that in the sense that Galacta is so strong that entire planets can become collateral damage in a fight. Like in superhero movies where the good dude and the bad guy are fighting in the middle of a huge city and they’re flying through entire buildings, shit like that.

Galacta Knight was basically sealed away in a void outside of time and space. When Nova summoned him, he was free, and was able to fight and putting his ancient skills to use. Morpho Knight is so interesting, because it's possible that Galacta Knight was relieved to have his soul reaped. He'd been living for who knows how long, stuck and forced to live in an alternate reality. He was definitely mad. Who knows if he hated Kirby, or if he just enjoyed fighting him. Maybe he was on a quest to scour different dimensions, to try to defeat some form of Kirby and Meta Knight. But Morpho Knight appeared and put him to rest. He'd avoided death for so long, being sealed away. His time had finally come, and maybe he was happy to finally be released from the cycle.

I always had a theory that side modes like Meta Knightmare Ultra, Dedede tour, and Guess Star all take place in different timelines. And Galacta Knight kinda confirms this theory to be true. Also Kirby Fighters 2 is not canon, so Meta Knight didn’t keep the powers that he got from the Jamba heart.

[@bluekirby_64]

He at least kept the rocks, since he uses them in Forgotten Land.

[@SkyLord1846]

@@bluekirby_64 Oh yeah I forgot about that. I guess the only ability he got to keep is the telekinesis trick.

[@ToxicPea]

I mean it kinda seems like Meta Knight really did keep his cloning ability. Phantom Meta Knight is able to make a doppelganger of himself when using his most powerful attack, although you could argue that this is Forgo's power since Phantom Clawroline can do the same. And who said Fighters 2 wasn't canon? It could very well be. I don't see why not.

[@SkyLord1846]

@@ToxicPea It’s a spin-off. Spin-offs are not canon. I could go over several reasons why they are not canon, but I’ll just give you a few. In some spin-offs, Kirby can talk, when in others he can’t even read. In some Spin-offs he has never before seen Copy abilities and in others he has no abilities what so ever. And there are also many inconsistencies in Spin-offs to.

[@lluis640]

@@SkyLord1846 but in star Allies in the picture where all the final bosses appear, the spin-off final bosses also appear, you can see Drawcia, Yin yarn, dark crafter and even Necrodeus, so I guess they might be canon. Also there are many enemies based and related to Drawcia.

[@DaSickness]

It would be pretty cool if we find out if galacta knight is kirby

[@RealmsCrossMyths]

What if Meta Knight one day becomes Galacta Knight? Like, when Galacta Knight was first introduced, he already had Meta Knight's moves - if not suped up versions of them - and whenever Meta Knight clashes with Galacta Knight, they gain some moves from them. There's also the details that of Kirby's species, Meta Knight and Galacta Knight are the only ones to: • Exclusively use the sword ability • Have a specific mask they usually wear. • Have a cape thar becomes a set of wings. (Morpho Knight also has these traits, save for the cape - As far as I can tell, its wings are just wings. Morpho Knight, however, is an ascended\\evolved form of **Butterflies of Judgment**, so not actually part of Kirby's species.) So, it's possible that over the course of time, Meta Knight become's Galacta Knight. However, I do not personally think so. One major difference is that Galacta Knight never offers you a sword before engaging in combat. Another possibility, is that Galacta Knight is a manifestation of "the perfect opponent" Meta Knight wishes to face. An entity created in Meta Knight's mind, a Tupla of sorts, which could be why Galacta Knight has so many simularities with Meta Knight. The Nova's, being able to make dreams real, could manifest Galacta Knight from Meta Knight's thoughts of them. So even if absorbed by a Butterfly of Judgement, a new copy could be pulled from the source - Meta Knight's mind. You could also explain Star Dream saying "a forgotten time" due to no one knowing when Galactic Knight came from, so Star Dream would have no point of reference. Anyway, just some theories.

[@squidsofty8507]

I still have hope that this dude will get his well deserved canon appearance

[@generalfletch7043]

We’re so flippin back

[@ItsCenrryTH]

Dude can be your angle or your delval, even through different time periods! Also, he might not be fully dead since a certain _fecto_ managed to escape Morpho knight after he was defeated

[@ChaosEnthusiast]

im exited to see more kirby canon episodes again

[@mimik173]

It's time For the final stretch

[@thefollower2933]

I honestly just find it weird how HAL just basically went "oh yeah, those extra modes are just alternate timelines and galacta knight can just go wherever he wants" like yeah, they obviously tried to make that work with like the different defeated animations for galacta knight in robobot and stuff, but when they said that those modes were what if scenarios I just assumed that they meant "these are scenarios that couldn't happen in any universe/theyre just things done for gameplay" like meta Knight taking down the halberd, dedede beating sectonia just because he thought it'd be a nice challenge and so on. Instead were now supposed to believe that galacta knight somehow has fought all the battles in those universes that don't make sense, like I'm pretty sure now we should believe that galacta knight is freed in return to Dreamland, gets beaten by Kirby, gets summoned by star dream, gets beaten by meta Knight, gets sealed again, breaks out again to fight Kirby, loses, flies away, gets summoned in superstar ultra only to be beaten AGAIN then seemingly dies leading me to believe that battle is non canon for real and that after robobot he is summoned in star allies to be absorbed by morpho knight only to be beaten except not really because he still has the "knight form" in forgotten Land. It's just so confusing and I don't get why they couldn't just have kept saying "it's a what if scenario"

[@drakath5727]

You've got to wonder how many times Galacta Knight has been summoned by the Galactic NOVA from Super Star Ultra, considering it can be implied it has been used by others (Possibly other alternate timeline Meta Knights) to summon him at LEAST more than once with the words "I WILL NOW SUMMON THIS GREAT WARRIOR *ONCE MORE.* ->" If so, then it is no wonder Galacta Knight lashed out at Star Dream - I'd be sick of being used as a means of a test of might for aeons because of wish granting planet sized pocket watches being scattered (and created) across multiple times aiding the same purple copy (Possibly? The relation between Galacta Knight and Meta Knight isn't really explored, despite looking like near identical counterparts) of you over and over, too.

[@Nickle_King]

So, your saying Galacta isn’t a bad guy because he gets constantly imprisoned and we only ever see him fly off…how does that make him not a bad guy? We don’t know what he’s doing or why he does it. All we know is Galacta will never try diplomacy, never fight on your side, and had the entire galaxy afraid of his power. Not really making me think “hero” here. Even if he help against the Jamba Heart, that might be the ONLY good thing he’s ever done. And that’s supposition in the first place.

[@jakchromedome7017]

So happy to see you back at it again!

[@zzultragamerV2]

someone NEEDS to go to HAL about making a game that tells us all about the ancients and the four heroes and their battle against void so we can finally see why he was sealed and how he came to be a hero, as well as who he fought alongside to seal void

[@kaienjin5468]

I think Galacta Knight was a hero(which is proven) but was just too strong so he was sealed away unjustly, a lot like Broly in Dragon Ball Z. But he was totally conscious during that time, and was most likely grateful for being released by Nova, hence why he didn't use his more powerful moves. But in Planet Robobot, he was brought in BEFORE being sealed up, so he saw Star Dream as an enemy and one shotted him. And I can only assume Meta Knight challenged him again and Galacta accepted because there wasn't much he could do at the time, and the clash between the two's might cause him to be sealed up again.

[@LippyPopples]

Yess! This is one I’ve been waiting for! This video is very good, well edited and very informative. Great stuff man!

[@maccamachine]

great video man

[@Asher-x2r]

Our boi is back to kirbo Canon

[@Filon73]

I'm theorizing from months about a possible scenario where Morpho Knight absorbs Meta Knight, becoming Metamorpho Knight, that name would have so much sense

[@BrandDude24]

The lore behind Galacta Knight and Morpho Knight is so puzzling yet fascinating. Looking forward to what you have to say with the added Morpho Knight lore recently

[@Murr248]

A Major Headcanon of mine is: Galacta Knight was one of the four heroes of yore, and after he defeated Void, He became corrupted by the Jamba Heart, (Remember Dedede got corrupted by simply gazing at it, and Meta Knight, who is now confirmed to resist most mind control fell to the hearts as well, Galacta Knight probably wasn’t any different) causing him to go berserk and attack. There’s absolutely no reason at all that the ancients would want to kill or lock away one of their greatest protectors, that is, if the ancients were around when Void was defeated, but because Galacta Knight was corrupted with Void’s Power, they had no choice. This is also why his eyes are always purple, like other victims corrupted by the heart. Now here’s the interesting part. Void is NOT related to Kirby. Why does Void have Kirby’s face? According to Kumazaki, Void saw something “Special” in Kirby when they fought, so he shaped his appearance to look like Kirby. I believe Kirby actually COULD be Galacta Knight, but not in a “Time Travel” way like people first though. Remember that Galacta’s Light and Dark forms are his true forms according to Kumazaki. As such, you know how Elfillis split into two creatures? One positive, and one negative. I think this is what happened to Galacta Knight. His Light and Dark split off, creating Kirby and Meta Knight respectively while Galacta Knight himself was reduced to a weaker form. This actually would make sense, if Galacta was corrupted by the heart, he’d have very little positivity and a lot of negativity, Kirby is smaller and childish while Meta Knight is larger in comparison and more developed. In fact, Dark Galacta is stronger than his Light form. This is why Void saw something special. Becuase Technically Kirby and Void have fought in the past. Kirby and Galacta Knight also both master the Heart Spears, and Kirby uses his to make the Star Allies Sparkler This also means, Elfillis was also one of the four heroes, which is why Elfillin is considered his positivity and compassion. Because he was once kind hearted and heroic before Void corrupted him. This also explains why his final form in the arena resembles Void, and why they share several attacks. That also explains Morpho Knight. He’s going after the four heroes. He typically draws liking to Kirby and occasionally Meta Knight, because technically he was one of the four heroes before the separation. They’re embedded with the original Void’s power (Original as in the fact that Void comes from another dimension. Zero technically isn’t the same being, just a different version from Kirby’s dimension, which is why Morpho didn’t care about it. Morpho is also from Another Dimension according to Japanese descriptions so he’d know about the original Void) and he wants that power. This is why he became Morpho Knight EX. He could be trying to reach a form stronger than that.

[@gamebitz7397]

YES! New Kirby Canon

He’s quite the darn mystery, so much lore and not a lot of time, massive wowza.

[@digstrememcdingus1463]

I hope he makes a canon appearance in a future Kirby game, perhaps you are sent back in time to defeat him so he can be sealed away

Hell yeah. I'll never deny a galacta knight video

[@cosmicking2054]

I love Kirby lore as much as the next guy, but I really don't like just how much of it is locked in the dungeon of "hey, maybe it's cannon, maybe it's not." I feel like Galacta Knight is the character who suffers the most from this. He is such an interesting character, but for all we know, none of the lore surrounding him is even cannon in the first place! Shoot, Galacta Knight as a character might not even be Cannon! Though that's unlikely, all of this "hey, maybe it's cannon, maybe it's not" stuff certainly puts a damper on theories and discussions. It's just not all that compelling talking about characters and events that might not have even happened. This is one of the (many) things I loved about Forgotten Land: everything is cannon! There is no question as to whether Morpho Knight or Chaos Elfilis are cannon! I really hope that this becomes the standard going forward. Similarly, though this is probably just a pipe dream, I would love for Hal to go back and address exactly what is and isn't cannon in all of the games with extra modes and soul bosses in order to get rid of the "hey, maybe it's cannon, maybe it's not" dungeon once and for all. On a lighter note, can we talk about how meaningless Galacta Knight's title of "Greatest Warrior in the Galaxy" is? The guy does nothing but lose to people! If there is a "Greatest Warrior in the Galaxy," it's Kirby!

[@Miniroket.]

Galacta Knight is in every time and every space at the same time yet in non

[@not_aeo]

At this point galacta knight might just be a future version of Meta Knight if the time travelling stuff is true. Also come to think of it, it's implied that 4 heroes defeated void termina and galacta knight was one of them. Kirby, King DeDeDe, Bandana Dee and Meta Knight were the first 4 mascots of Kirby games since return to Dreamland.

[@thewiseguy01_71]

Who else’s favorite character is Galacta knight 🙋‍♂️

[@SkyLord1846]

He’s my dad’s favorite.

[@kevyrs99]

imagine Galacta Knight being a future Kirby or some stuff like that lmao

[@AlphaTheBird]

So, To put it: much about Galacta Knight is a mystery.

[@WhatTheCheick]

I think while they aren't within *continuity*, they are still *canon*, meaning they're events in essentially different timelines, but still reflect character details

[@mreroly4246]

May be galaxy’s knight is the “chaotic neutral” so he is evil if others are bad to him aka summoning him just to kill him again it explains light and dark forms and the heart spears because it might be able to remove certain energy’s from his body not be affected doing so and heart spears could be a manifestation of positive energy he removed from himself when turning into a dark form which explains why he can’t just use them in normal and light forms

[@Homing3000]

yes finally

[@GrimmGamingG451]

THIS MAKES SO MUCH SENSE HOPE THERE IS MORE LORE ABOUT HIM IN THE FUTURE

[@موسى_7]

Theory: Galacta Knight is Kirby grown up, he travelled back in time, then got sealed.

[@ShycoWar]

With all that talk of being able to travel through time and space at will, has anyone ever raised the possibility that Galacta Knight could actually just be a future version of Meta Knight? Then again, that would lead to all kinds of confusing timey-wimey shenanigans. You'd need to assume there's a timeline with only three heroes of yore who may have been unable to vanquish Void Termina, and then the Meta Knight of that timeline eventually becomes Galacta and goes aaaall the way back to assist the heroes and do the job properly and stuff. Yeesh :P

[@ToxicPea]

More importantly...why did Meta Knight drop his drip for pink shaders? XD

I like the headcanon galacta knight just straight up wants nothing more than a fun fight. The only reason he did what he did in the.past as a "hero" was just fot a fun fucking fight. He saw powerful gods and thought "mmm yes, i wanna fight that" Perhaps it plays into why he was sealed. So obsessed with fighting and all that power. He got freaking sealed away for it.

[@azenar1894]

What if Galacta knight is future meta knight, when he is able to control the light and the dark
