History Awesome / Kirby

** And that's not all! He also [[VideoGame/KirbyAndTheAmazingMirror learns how to use four of himself to his advantage almost immediately (if anything, he just becomes even more badass)]], [[VideoGame/KirbySuperStar has the survival skills necessary to adapt to terrible situations, like getting trapped deep underground,]] [[VideoGame/KirbyAirRide can learn to drive any vehicle whatsoever, regardless of how esoteric it is,]] [[VideoGame/KirbysReturnToDreamLand has the gnosis]] [[VideoGame/KirbyTripleDeluxe needed to]] [[VideoGame/KirbyPlanetRobobot adapt to super forms of]] [[VideoGame/KirbyStarAllies his abilities and how to super charge them in amazing spectacles,]] and can even still save the day after ''[[VideoGame/KirbyCanvasCurse being turned into a ball,]]'' ''[[VideoGame/KirbyMassAttack being split into ten mini-Kirbys,]]'' or even '''[[VideoGame/KirbysEpicYarn after being turned into yarn.]]''' Star Dream was ''not'' exaggerating about Kirby's power.

** A surprise performance by Neichel [[note]]the in universe singer of "Welcome to the New World"[[/note]] singing live, including a duet with Makiki Ohmoto.
*** Outfit design managing to keep Neichel's appearance simultaneously easily recognizable while still hiding what she actually looks like, with a sweeping dress and large face obscuring hat.

* After spending the whole game thinking Dedede's the BigBad, the player learns that he had been trying to seal away Nightmare the whole time. Even after getting beaten into submission, he gets up shortly afterwards to try and stop Kirby from putting the restored Star Rod into the Fountain of Dreams, going so far as to be ''dragged'' across the ground part of the way there. As if this setting the tone for his behavior in the future wasn't great enough, he ends the scene in a somewhat badass way -- He swallows Kirby and the Star Rod, then spits them back out, into ''space'', to deal with Nightmare. Ladies and gentlemen, ''the'' king of Dream Land.

* The series has its moments, but above them all stands the ''VideoGame/KirbySuperStar'' segment ''"Revenge Of Meta Knight"'' in its entirety. StormingTheCastle reaching monumental levels. Seriously. And [[EnemyChatter you get to hear the bad guys]] becoming ''progressively more and more afraid of you'', as if you were the goshdang Batman, while you singlehandedly destroy a freakin' airship! '''''Hell yeah.'''''

* In ''Revenge of the King'', as Kirby goes to Mt. Dedede, Dedede shoots him down with KABULA, a character who hadn't appeared in ''[[LongBusTrip OVER TEN YEARS,]]'' as Kirby falls down helplessly... and assembles the Starship out of the three Sparkling Stars he got before from the three previous bosses! Cue amazing shoot 'em up boss fight.

** It's worth noting that when you fight him this time around, the bleachers are empty (save for [[UndyingLoyalty Bandana Waddle Dee]]). In ''Spring Breeze'', you fought King Dedede in front of a cheering audience because [[SmugSnake he was confident in his victory]], and that fight was [[JustToyingWithThem just him stoking his own ego]]. [[LetsGetDangerous He's not playing around anymore.]]

* Magolor gets one in the 20th anniversary collection. After Kirby, Dedede, Meta Knight, and B.W.Dee kick his alien butt six ways to Saturday, not only does he ''survive'', he also manages to re-take the Lor and make it back to Popstar! Of course he's had a HeelFaceTurn, but surviving Kirby in general is no simple feat! Just ask Dark Matter, Marx, 0[[superscript:2]], Drawcia, or Sectonia!

* After defeating the Master Crown itself (fused with a Gem Apple Seed), Magolor finds a sword in the rubble as it grows in size, culminating in a quick-time event between Magolor and the Master Crown and resulting in Magolor ''perfectly slicing'' through the crown's tree form in half, destroying it once and for all.

* The ending was nothing short of memorable, if not counting as both awesome and heartwarming. After Dark Matter transforms from a katana-wielding warrior into the one-eyed monster we recognize, Kirby fights him with the Rainbow Sword in outer space as they slowly descend into re-entry through Dream Land's atmosphere. Kirby defeats Dark Matter but seemingly passes out due to exhaustion. A cutscene shows Coo glimpsing a shooting star while the rest of Kirby's animal helpers watch the sky as somber/hopeful music plays, and even Dedede is shown wondering about the fate of our hero. Kirby wakes up, only to find out he has been floating down safely thanks to the power of the Rainbow Sword, which Kirby grabs and flies around with as day breaks and the credits roll. If played on the Game Boy, the streak of light that comes from the sword at the last moment appears as a rainbow. Cue end.

** Many songs were covered that were not expected, such as ''VideoGame/KirbysDreamLand2''{{'}}s Grass Land theme and ''VideoGame/KirbySqueakSquad''{{'}}s ending theme, and in general touched on at least one song from every mainline game over the course of the franchise.

* Through the magic of FridgeBrilliance, there's a major SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome in ''VideoGame/KirbyCanvasCurse''. Consider the intro, where it says that the titular Power Paintbrush "is transported to ''you'' on a ray of light". '''You''' hold the stylus... I mean paintbrush. Now, think about the final battle, against Drawcia Soul. She is defeated by tapping the Para Matters she sends out with the stylus, and then when she moves into the foreground, simply poking her with said stylus until she is stunned, leaving her vulnerable. Kirby barely touches her at all except for the final blow, everything else he does is dodging her attacks. Now, put these two things together and what does it mean? '''''YOU''''' ''WERE THE ONE WHO DEFEATED DRAWCIA!'' '''''WITH HER OWN STYLUS!!!''''' Talk about involving the player in the game!
