History Headscratchers / Kirby

* Dynablade is implied to be a mythological deity in the Kirby universe, like a Kirby alternate to The Phoenix. Is implied to even be immortal. The anime goes further and confirms that there is only one Dynablade and it has come and gone for thousands of years. So what becomes of it's chicks? If they don't grow up into other Dynablades what do they become?

*** That makes the most sense. Kirby tends to cause a few problems while trying to save the day, so Mirror Kirby does the same to you until the true villain is revealed. Meta-Knight has very Templar views on right and wrong, and his mirror self takes it over the edge into villany. And, in Triple Deluxe, Queen Sectonia is turned evil because she used the Dimension Mirror as her own personal looking glass and it amplified her vanity, her most negative trait. (Heck, maybe she was outright replaced by Mirror Sectonia and nobody noticed.)

** On the contrary, to have a slapstick comedy bump in cutscenes.

* Is anyone else kind of annoyed by how some people think ''every'' single villain in the series is some subsidiary of the Dark Matter? I understand that yes, Zero/02 is pretty much the biggest evil in that universe, but not ''everything'' was caused by him. We have the villains who were obviously part of the Dark Matter: that singular swordsman Dark Matter in [=KDL2=], the Dark Matter drone and Zero in [=KDL3=], and then 0[[superscript::2]] in [=K64=]. They're the definite ones. Here we move into the slightly dubious ones, like Dark Mind and Dark Nebula. Dark Mind is probably the Mirror World counterpart of Zero, so that makes sense, and Dark Nebula could be some offshoot of the Dark Matter? But that's it! It gets really annoying when people try to claim that villains like ''Marx'' are part of the Dark Matter. There's no link between them whatsoever, and it's the same with Magolor. He wasn't possessed by Dark Matter, he was possessed by the ''Crown,'' and it was puppeting his body. Is anyone else irked by that?
** Nightmare is also not connected, but equally annoying is that the show made Dark Matter Nightmare's minion, [[{{Mooks}} a throwaway minion]]! Marx is not connected and it is strange people try. Super Star was better received in sales and reviews than the Dark Matter trilogy but Dark Matter to Zero 2 are the most nightmarish monsters to be bosses, and a subsection of the fandom is always gushing about Kirby defeating nightmarish abominations. Maybe they try to tie Dark Matter/Zero into everything to justify is status as a monster worth gushing about?
** Magolor/The Crown itself gets connected to Dark Matter a lot because if you look closely, Magolor Soul is actually a giant floating eyeball that looks very reminiscent of the guy, and he's copying the fake eyes thing 02 did at the beginning of its fight. Nightmare and Marx, on the other hand, have no evidence supporting any possible connection to it.

* Was Meta Knight under the influence of Dark Matter during the ''Revenge of Meta Knight'' storyline in Kirby Super Star or he's just actually evil?
** I think it was more of a Main/WellIntentionedExtremist type of thing, he figured that Dream Land would be better off with him in charge. I mean, look at their current leader.

*** I'm definitely in the WellIntentionedExtremist bucket. MK simply wanted Dream Land to stop being so damn lazy and figured an attack would shock them into action. Of course, all it did was bring the wrath of Kirby upon him. So at least MK found ONE person willing to fight.

*** This troper thinks that Meta Knight is the only one that takes seriously the threat posed by all the nightmarish that lurk in the setting, and he is desperately trying to rouse the SugarBowl inhabitants into doing something about it, hence his decision to hide his SugarBowl appearance behind a darker and grittier mask.

** Silly troper, cuteness is for Japan!

** Plus you saw the inside of his stomach, there are freaking STARS in there, maybe if it gets knocked away too far it'll be lost in his stomach-verse forever and he won't be able to reach it.

** A thick and reflective atmosphere, maybe? It could work in reverse to why we see the sky blue, when space is actually pitch black(as seen on the Moon).

** To the above, tell that to Kirby's Dream Collection, which finally got E10+ thanks to Zero/O2..

* Are Meta Knight's wings a part of his body or his transformed cape? Most games seem to support the latter, but in Kirby's Return to Dream Land he clearly takes his cape off and casts it aside to reveal his wings.

** The opening shows the ship coming out of a wormhole while losing parts, it's more than possible that some of the cores fell out on the other side before it went through

** Kirby copies powers and abilities, not random bits of the environment. (maybe if there was a boss who specialized in throwing candles at him he would turn fire but one just sitting their would not do anything)

** Like a lot of real monarchs, he's just expected to be there in an official capacity - no-one takes all his rules to heart. So he rules Dream Land, but people still act pretty freely. It should be worth mentioning at some point that the Waddle Dees apparently ''want'' his as king - in the ending cutscene of 'Revenge of the King' (''Kirby Super Star Ultra'') he's walking down a dusty track with nothing, but Waddle Dees slowly join him until he has a full royal train and entourage.

** Probably to look hardcore. Also, it might just be him getting into a position to headbutt enemies. If he falls on an enemy before facing down, he takes damage.

* In Kirby Squeak Squad, what was Daroach and his gang looking for, anyway? Were they really looking to unleash a SealedEvilInACan ? Did they think something else was in it? Were they just going to sell it, but Daroach just had to take a look?

* Why does Kirby always fall face first from a high height?

** They only hurt Kirby by bumping into him, which doesn't seem to be intentional.

** Nightmare is also not connected, but equally annoying is that the show made Dark Matter Nightmare's minion, [[{{Mooks}} a throwaway minion]]! Marx is not connected and it is strange people try. Super Star was better received in sales and reviews than the Dark Matter trilogy but Dark Matter to Zero 2 are the most nightmarish monsters to be bosses, and a subsection of the fandom is always gushing about Kirby defeating nightmarish abominations. Maybe they try to tie Dark Matter/Zero into everything to justify is status as a monster worth gushing about? It would probably be better if Dark Matter had a proper return and more villains were designed to stand alone, unconnected to it. Drawcia, Dark Nebula and Dark Mind kind of rob Dark Matter of its mystique.

***** Ive always thought they'd get pooped out fully alive at the end of the game. Or resurrected like the Mario series.

* Waddle Dees are said to be peaceful creatures. Why are they enemies if that's the case?

* If Galactic Knight were voiced, what would he sound like?

** I believe the final boss from Squeak Squad, Dark Nebula (Dark Zero in Japan), was actually confirmed to be a rogue piece of Dark Matter, and that Drawica Soul and Zero are related, but otherwise Dark Matter and the other final bosses are not connected.

* In [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nA6cqE5gDIs this]] video for Kirby's Dream Collection, why didn't Kirby become fire Kirby from the candles?

** The opening shows the ship coming out of a wormhole and crashing, it's more than possible that some of the cores landed on the other side

** It doesn't appear to be that way. In ''[[KirbySuperStar Milky Way Wishes]]'', the plot is that the sun and moon are fighting, but they don't seem to be Shine and Bright. It's much like [[VideoGame/SuperMarioBros3 The Angry Sun.]]

** But he gained a more important role in the Kirby series, courtesy of KirbySuperStar. That makes his absence from [=KDL3=] & Kirby 64 all the more confusing.

** Now where does [[KirbyMassAttack Necrodeus]] fit into this? Just a random baddie?
