I love Zan!!!!!!!
KIRBY NO
Sakurai will save this general.
Kirby Air Riders is going to shit all over the Kumazaki games in terms of quality, fun, and lore. DADDY is home.
>>521415727marry the mages.
>>521415760how does he know humans are actually stick figures when nude?
And so things reset back to the beginning. New thread, new director shitposting wars.Then it will move back to the characterfagging.Like sands in the hourglass, so are the days of /kdg/
Damn this is probably the laziest fucking bake ever
I love Kirby!
did some testing and now I have the editor working for the Wii game as well, you just pick the version you're saving for when saving the file
>>521416069This is why i told OP to put in a rule for Director Autism, otherwise anons won’t know better and bite the bait. thanks asshole, for ruining another thread before it began.
>>521414447Makes sense. Things were relatively peaceful, if slow. Now it's the same shitposting we used to have before when we were young and full of piss and vinegar. The SAME fucking things.
>>521416330Does the new editor let you see what platforms look like? i tried making a level and it looked normal in the old wii editor “MagolorCrate” i think it was, and it came out looking like Missingno.
>>521416348just ignore it and they will get bored.
>>521416593There you are, you centrist faggot.
>>521416320Uh oh! You posted the forbidden girl, now someone is going to have a melty!
>>521416539Atm not visually, it just has the number of the decor tile, though might make a guide which has the actual decor for refrence, or just like, use the auto generate decor stuff i have for the Kirby Star Allies stuff to put the right numbers for Rtdl decor and the like
>>521416058She’s just that skinny surprisingly
>>521416652Do you seriously not have anything better to do
>>521416652You say it as if you secretly want that to happen.
>>521416348You realise that generals can't just add rules and expect the moderation and every anon to follow them, right?
>>521416348>>521416459You could just report the shitposters you know.
>>521416786kdg gags literally live in their own bubble and forget they’re on 4chan
>>521416786That's why I didn't add it to the OP. What kind of retarded shit is that?
>>521416636I'm more a "who gives a fuck" then a centrist.
>>521416719Not yet, but she will be.
>>521416784They always do.
>>521417081>Zerofag is a stealth AdofagIt alll makes sense now.
>>521416786>>521417039It will make people popping in know this is just one singular autist at the very leastWas it so hard to write 4 new words in the OP? “IGNORE THE DIRECTOR AUTIST” should be easy to put in, it’s not like a trek across the desert you dick.
>>521417207Be faster in making the next thread then :^)
>>521417207You need to log off, son. Your blood pressure is skyrocketing.
>>521417170Most people like Ado, get over it.
>>521417309You said you wanted to bake, i expected you to be responsible and not an enabler.
>>521417207It just makes the general look deranged and paints a target on our back.
>>521417170That's not what that means you fucking idiot.
>>521417157this is just the result of a human being exposed to pop star's environment for too long
>>521417469This is 4chan you tard. People aren't going to follow some rules because its in the OP
>>521416039If Francisa and Flamberge weren't probably already a thing I'd marry all three of them
>>521417157>long hair anime girl samusCCCUUUUUUUUUUTTTTTTEEEEEEEEE
I do not like Ado.
>>521417469And the alternative is… letting the director autist be unhinged and ruin it anyway?>>521417575It’s also not /v/ or any of the yellow boards, as it stands only the Nintendo game generals and the Sonic generals look like this mess.
>>521417761Nobody fucking cares what you don't like.
>>521417597
>>521417637I do wish they would allow Samus to put her hair down again. She looks good like that.
>>521417157Cute and looooooooooooooong Ado
>>521417804Don’t post Galacta Knight, he’s be disgusted with you Ado filth.
>>521417804You cared enough to reply.
>>521417575That's my point. Putting something in the OP would makes things worse, not better. Makes the general look like easy pickings for shitposters to come in.>>521417762Why would you invite more shitposters in for no reason? Do you think anyone would actually listen to some OP rule?
>>521417935Cry about it.
They could never make me hate you, Adeleine.
you wouldn't shitpost about an average, normal, run of the mill waddle dee right?
>>521417804Would Adeleine peg Galacta Knight?
>>521417856I mean that's better than 99% of the ships in the franchise lmao, that's honestly kinda sad thinking about it, but still a fact.
>>521417872yeah that'd be great.wait, how the hell does the pony tail fit inside the suit?
>>521418168I want to be Meta Knight there so badly
>>521417935Cry more, autist.
>>521418292>Thinking you’re tough all of a suddenDon’t reply to me.
>>521418168I just realized that Meta Knight isn't even holding the boxes. Susie just balanced them on his head.
>>521418193the biggest brain ship is me x all the mage sisters and susie
>>521418212Suction pulls it back out of the way. Like putting a vacuum on top of your head. Since it's sci fi we can assume there's some more handy solution to keeping hair out of your eyes than a hood.
>>521418396You are a bitch.
>>521418212Bird magic. Don't think too hard about it.
>>521418168>OOC knight
>>521418431>selfshippingcringe
>>521418168You're now realizing this outfit wouldn't work on Susie because it has shoulders and she doesn't.
>>521418136No, but Susie might.
>>521418720She just needs to buy a XXXS size.
>>521418587>tfw samus' suit animation in zero mission is the same as the robobot armor changing to Kirbymagic tech sure is whacky.
>>521418746Already exists, sorta https://wimg.rule34.xxx//images/1838/759845fe76dbcd5ae399575beaa8efa2.jpeg?10914393
>Galacta Knight is the universe's biggest Ado defender
>>521418617is it any less cringy then shipping the characters in the first place?
>>521419020How long are you going to keep trying to start shit?
>>521418549>The Strongest Simp in the Galaxy
>>521419020>biggest Ado defenderCanonically it would be dedede.
>>521419020Realistically speaking that would be Kine given he’s canonically a simp for humanoid women
>>521419106I kinda want these three to return but at the same time their story is done and I don't mind them just being happy at some beach somewhere.>>521419198Wouldn't it be Kirby? I don't think he'd like people shit-talking his friends.
>>521418867Is it? I never really noticed. That's a cool detail.
>>521419159Shit was already started
>>521419356No, Kirby doesn’t care about Ado.
>>521419198dedede is a sigma male who does things for his own sake.
>>521419462in the anime, not in 64 or Forgotten Land
>>521419258I wonder how his wife would feel about that.
>>521419106NTA but I say it's only more cringey to those who don't ship. It's not for me, but I just see it as a higher form of appreciation for a character.
>>521419356She's the only person that's considered his "friend" rather than a rival or minion, and he's also an older brother figure to her.
>>521419604Devastated, she would probably leave him for Fatty Puffer
>>521419363https://youtu.be/JW26nBX8-Ac?si=xFHAZdkD6SXmg0jE&t=891https://youtu.be/TnQmIkm7ikc?si=sKx4vbCZwCd0GxPk&t=95they are pretty damn close.
>>521419816That's why Kine didn't appear after Dreamland 3, he got divorced and Rick and Coo were trying toc cheer him up so they were gone as well
>>521419356Kirby did beat the Dark Matter out of her twice, but it was Dedede who made sure she was okay in the 64 skit, and according to DL3 guide books she was one of his best friends for a while.
>>521419356it's small but some things outside the games imply adeleine sees dedede as a big brother figure and dedede seems to return the favor iirc.
Everyone is Kirby's friend.Unless you are dead.In which case you probably deserve it.
>>521419525he went from sigma male to giga chad king who helps his subjects.
>>521420009Kirby HATED everyone on the Access Ark who he violently killed when fighting Star Dream confirmed.That might honestly make his canon kill count like 10,000+ depending on how many workers were there lmao.
>>521420009I’m not his friend. I hate him.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FitnmtEqiFkGuess it's a bad time to post this.Gonna post it anyway.
>>521419739She is but not the only, the Adventure bosses are in that category too.
>>521420170I love giantesses
>>521420136+a million awoofies and waddle dee's murdered.
>>521420136They deserved it.>>521420140You may not accept him, but he accepts you as a friend.
>>521420140T.>>521420187i do wonder that sometimes, meta knight is still one but whispy and kracko seem to just do their own things (and kracko is more busy still having a massive hateboner for kirby so he'd probably hate the king now that he's softened up), and paint roller and heavy mole don't have much so you could say anything goes with them.
>>521419868Oh, I see what you mean now. I forgot about the energy field on the Robobot side.Neat.
yeah Kirby murders people over cake lmfao he’s not a good person
>>521420170https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CpFdP5yATw0&ab_channel=mas8705
>>521420438Paint Roller with have his day when they stop adding to Drawcia family
>>521420170Aw sweet, Crack AU time
>>521420170I don't dislike this guys art style persay, but man this Ribbon design is not it. Really leaning into the whole, "This is just this guys oc who he vaguely flavored around a character he likes." At least with Adeleine I can still see remnants of her proper design... kinda.Otherwise episode is fine enough I guess? I'm not sure if there's some crazy lore context I'm missing but it's cute enough, kinda makes me want to take a crack at my own Kirby online series thingy, though it'd be more like, in game with the games proper prolly.
>>521420170Cringe.
>>521420485the chozo are the ancients, X are like dark matter, mother brain is zero, there's a boss called nightmare...hell raven beak has some of galatica knights movesIT'S.ALL.CONNECTED.
>>521421119The crazy lore is in the video description. Basically there are evil anti-fairies in this AU that disappeared for a long time and Ribbon is first one of them to appear in a long time, despite best intentions and being spared by the queen she is ostracized for it.
>>521420553liked, upvoted, and retweeted
>>521421119it looks like he tried drawing a male character first but then didn't care to change it once adding ribbon's clothing. i wouldn't care if this AU's ribbon was male but it's a bit of a clash.
>>521421317huh.I'm not against expanding on bits of the game that dont get it otherwise, ive written plenty of that kind of thing, but its an odd direction since i dont think any of this is even hinted at in 64, but not like inherently bad, just kinda there. Would be helpful if it was explained in the episode somehow, but better than nothing.
>>521421249Then you got those weird blue goop creatures that can brainwash people, DS and Fecto
>>521417856Not true. Francisca and Flamberge are like one of 3 characters to have dialogue about one another. I mean they're also apparently sisters tho
>>521421669Adofags don’t produce good or concrete ccontent. Shocking, I know.
>>521421249>Apparently, it was a bio-mechanical organism designed for military applications... It possesses uncommon power and can manipulate gravity.
>>521421817The sisters thing is like a nun sisterhood, I don't think anywhere says they're actually related.
>>521421669>>521421317>ribbon being anything but pure>ripple not being the dubiously moral one.shit lore.
>>521421929What is Nightmare (Kirby)’s power level? we never really got to see him shine
>>521421669>Would be helpful if it was explained in the episode somehowPretty sure that's what the flashback was all about
This general is racist and whitewashing
This general is sexist and objectifying
>>521422181Yeah, I saw the flashback but without dialogue was a bit hard to parse what was actually going on, or the specific details rather, which helped explain it properly. I could get the general gist but a lot of info got lost without reading the description.
This general is transphobic and exclusionary
>>521422453Ah, yeah I can get that. Disadvantage of a silent film, it's harder to tell complex stories.>>521421994At the end of the day it's just a crack au and can be easily ignored if you don't like it. Not like it's an official Kirby: Other M or something that will hang over the series forevermore.
so smug…
Heheh... While the anons are busy arguing I'll steal the thread for myself!
>>521420250i had no clue that was a word, neat.
>>521425161Why is the P3 version of Susie so popular compared to other character color variants?
>>521425438good color scheme
>>521425438Probably because she's a noticably different skin color compared to her other alts.
>>521425438people like gyarus
>>521425847is that like an ethnic version of the blonde bimbo girl?
>>521427818Pretty much. It's a Japanese subculture.
>>521428142Cute! bimbos are a fun vibe
>>521421994I blame TerminalMontage for having a vaguely sinister Ribbon.
>>521422925that's true, but even for an AU it's still crappy "ow the edge" fan fic type writing that makes phantom pain look coherent.they really should just retcon other M>>521431638she wasn't really that sinister in those animations.
>>521422234>>521422361>>521422527I've already bought the product you don't need to keep trying to sell it to me.
>>521433724But we don't charge admission...
>>521433994it's merely a metaphor.
>>521434458Meta Knight is charging admission fees?! The scoundrel!
>>521434825dudes gotta pay for the halberd blowing up multiple times, it's not like he'd do it for free
>>521435161How does he make his money anyways?
>>521435245He did win a grammy that one time so music maybe.
>>521417170>Smash secondary who has been shitting up the general since Air Riders was announced hates fans of Kinomura charactersIt all makes sense now.
>>521435245It's pure headcanon, but I like to imagine Meta Knight does "for-hire" type business dealings with his fuck-huge warship. Transporting cargo, aiding in safe passage, and so on.
>>521420250Same. I wish there was giantess Sectonia art out there.
>>521435767>meta knight will never rent out the halberd for tours.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EbXSbP-wEFU&ab_channel=ThemeParkReview

>>521431638TerminalMontage did unbelievable damage to the perception of the franchise. i hate Christfags so much
taking draw requests
>>521442386t. Zero
>>521442993Gooey doing this to Goku
honestly dont know what brings people to like characters to death when most were never fleshed out beyond 2 cutscenes of spotlight. most of the cast gets thrown out the window just to make room for a new scrimblo at the end of the day with meta, dedede, bandana, and MAYBE magolor. being the only constants. does this board even fuck with just the gameplay of the series itself bc it sounds to me you guys just attach to the whimsical tumblr creature
>>521442993Dedede using a waddle dee as a ball in a random sport.
>>521442386The joke is that Kirby and Jesus Christ are both Super Stars
>>521443218the Kirby anime built a massive fanbase for Meta Knight and DededeMagolor just had a lot of dialog and went out of his way to “befriend” you so people got to know himGalacta Knight is just the Boba Fett effect of the franchise The other main villains got their fandom for how creepy and scary they are in their final fights
>>521443218People can like more characters other than the same 3 or 4 kirby guys, no matter what Sakurai and Kumazaki think.
>>521443218They are called "supporting characters" for a reason.
>>521444471>Galacta Knight is just the Boba Fett effect of the franchiseHey, at least Galacta had a real chance to shine and didn't become metaphorical Sarlacc fodder until the heckin' deep lore butterfly showed up. Boba didn't have half a damn thing after they axed the expanded universe until Filoni decided to bring him back and turn him into a sad, pathetic old cunt who had his helmet off at all times and just sat around having feelings.
>>521444731>got eaten by a insect creature>replaced by a near identical new character for no reason Damn Galacta IS Boba Fett
>>521443218Interesting phenomenon, isn't it? It's such a uniquely human thing that reveals the truth about connection and imagination, for those that care to pay attention in good faith. Just a handful of expressive moments, along with a well-crafted design and energetically appropriate color palette, can distill a character's essence into something timeless and evocative. When a creator carefully imbues a character with heart, through deliberate aesthetic choices and fleeting but meaningful animation, they themselves forge a metaphysical bond with their audience. For those who love and cherish these characters, to those in this mode of thought, narrative prominence comes second to the qualities they embody that spark creative engagement across contexts and eras. It transcends the need for extensive development. The soul of a character, once sparked, lingers in the your mind and touches your heart.
>>521445334you did not just use "soul" as a way to validate your need to get into adelines pants for the gazillionth time
>>521445006Side tangent, but while we're making comparisons, Bandana is Ahsoka:>mostly orange with blue accents>trained under and has a bond with an iconic misled antagonist, but mainly tends to associate with people other than him on the side of unquestionable good these days>started out on the weaker side strength-wise, and was somewhat puny, but was given character development to become stronger as the series continued>created under the supervision of the original series creator, but only really rose to today's level of prominence after he stopped being involved>shows up just a little too often these days and is often made to stand alongside characters who have been around for considerably longer and have more of a place in the franchise, due to the favoritism of one of the bigger creative heads behind the series as of current>predominantly popular with younger fans due to the era they were introduced, older fans tend to feel differently
meta is such a cutie without the maskno wonder why the fujoshis love him so much
Been a while since I've seen a thread last just a couple days, I forgot what having big activity looks like. Wild.
>>521445334Thank you ChatGPT, very cool
>>521443218Ado was the reason I never finished Dreamland 3 as a kid, but I never held it against the character much.
>>521445334based adobro
>>521444556not saying you can't but it goes to show theres not a whole lot it takes for this fandom to get their rocks off. its like the series lives off of "aura"
>>521445836And he was a good friend.
Does anyone have that silly pic of Brawl Meta Knight just lying on the floor
>>521447796family guy death pose?
What does it mean?
>>521445760I always use "soul" and I always stand by it. Art is an expression of something ineffable. Soul, essence, even "vibe," whatever you wish to call it, every carefully crafted character is an expression of some facet of their creator's soul and their values.>need to get into adelines pantsThat is just disgusting, Anon. You betray a cynical, bad faith mentality that prevents you from understanding my own.
>>521447835No. I know it's from before that meme became widespread
>Adofags still talkingIsn’t it past your bedtimes?
>>521448772Adohater projects a lot.
>>521442993the mage sisters wearing this.
>>521447929PIX CONFIRMED
>>521453483don't get my hopes up Robobot pissed me off last time with the Holo Defense API
>>521453706to be fair pix didn't exactly have much going on as a boss.
>>521454018Yeah so does a tree that drops apples yet HERE WE ARE
>>521454459whispy literally has more attacks then pix, that speaks volumes.
>>521448772Like another anon basically said, you talk like an AI and never seem to make an actual point.
>>521454018It has mystery. We still don't know what the deal with the black pyramids are.
kirby is a pink guy
>>521454753AI talk like me, not the other way around. Fair point that I'm not good at clearly elucidating my point, though, people rarely seem to understand what I mean, though I think I make myself clear. I'm always open to questions and conversation when I'm here.
>>521454753"Talk like an AI" isn't a point or counter argument either. It's pretty much a nothing post.
>>521455213I'm basically saying that he uses a lot of flowery language to say a whole lot of nothing, much like an AI.
>>521455348It was a pretty clear answer to the mk poster's question
>>521454619Whispy has like, one actual unique attack over the dude, and besides if Zero Two is probably the biggest offender if we're talking about movesets. Least Pix has different formations for trying to hit you with those blade beams.
>>521455348I can see multiple points in the original point basically saying "once a character connects with you in a way they linger in your mind for a pretty long while" I've seen many characterfag wall of texts here, and somehow only the Ado poster gets the flack on the text itself. Seems like a bias or hateboner.
>>521455348He made his point, he just padded it out with, like you said, flowery language, and like >>521455542 said, multiple variations on the same point, likely in an attempt to sound smarter than he is
>>521455718Why do you hate flowers?
>>521455542I mean someone said "shut up, nobody asked you" to an anon trying to explain why Meta Knight attracts so many people with weird fetishes just last thread, but sure, whatever fits your narrative.
>>521456051That wasn't a wall of text nor an attack on how he wrote the message itself. So that's you trying to narrative twist.
>>521456130Why are you taking it so personally on that anon's behalf, anyway?
>>521456207Maybe he cares about fairness
>>521456207Because "Passion = Ai" is a brainless slippery slope that needs to be stomped early rather than later. It's 1 thing to just make a single ai joke for laughs or from you disliking a character but then the anon hammered it in past that, which is stupid, i've seen many "flavor text" posts that weren't a problem here in the past.
>>521456529Would it have offended your delicate sensibilities less if I'd said that he types robotically and tends to get stuck reiterating the same thing over and over without actually getting anywhere worthwhile?
>>521456667Is it flowery or robotic? Make up your mind. And you're one to talk about having delicate sensibilities, bitching about the way someone talks.
>>521456667Well this argument already moved the goalposts to "no point in the message" to "there's a point but mucho texto". So it's already getting bad faith territory either way.
>>521456851Robotic and flowery aren't mutually exclusive.
It's always the minor characters that have the most mentally ill fanbases. Why is that?
Must've picked up an Adofag defender or two with all the shitposters after the Air Riders announcement, huh
>>521457474people been both attacking and defending ado for years here, newfag
>>521457448They always feel like they have something to prove because they're deluded that their character should be more important than they are.
>>521447929AW YEAH BABY IT'S TIME FOR HOLO DEFENSE 3.0[/SPOILER]
>>521457631People seemed to have no opposition bashing Ado for a decent little while before last week, retard
>>521455348>It's such a uniquely human thing that reveals the truth about connection and imagination, for those that care to pay attention in good faith.It's human to connect and imagine about characters and their archetypes.>Just a handful of expressive moments, along with a well-crafted design and energetically appropriate color palette, can distill a character's essence into something timeless and evocative.It only takes a few moments and good design make a character timeless.>When a creator carefully imbues a character with heart, through deliberate aesthetic choices and fleeting but meaningful animation, they themselves forge a metaphysical bond with their audience.Heartfelt creation results in a bond between the creator and the audience.>For those who love and cherish these characters, to those in this mode of thought, narrative prominence comes second to the qualities they embody that spark creative engagement across contexts and eras.People can like a character's qualities over story prominence and it can inspire more creativity.>It transcends the need for extensive development. The soul of a character, once sparked, lingers in your mind and touches your heart.A character's soul can be understood and last even without much development.That's five points in one post, five more than I've seen you make in all of yours. Maybe you're just retarded.
>>521457739Nah still there for Ado, maybe you erased the opposition in your head tard , but i saw it.
>>521457750Still sounds like he asked a LLM to iterate on the same basic idea a few times without any commitment to anything related to Kirby.
>>521457739There's always a breaking point. I've seen this kind of thing in other generals before. 11 times, as a matter of fact.
Who cares if he prompted an AI to make a post for him? That's a good thing.
>>521457952Even the start of his post reeked of that>how do you do, fellow humans?thing ChatGPT does to make itself sound more personable
>>521458149I think it's pretty cool he used AI.
>>521458231It's called an introduction. People used to type like that not too uncommonly here before the Internet opened up more to the third world.
>>521458295But it also has to be a bad thing when it's about Ado. I wish luddites like him would keel over.
>>521458295Hi Susie
>>521458318I don't think structuring your posts like an essay you're having to stretch out because you don't give a shit about the topic was ever the norm, anon
>>521458412I think in order to teach him a lesson we should all make our next few posts using AI. Encourage it to go as flowery as possible.
>>521457952You're mad that someone didn't dumb down their posting style for you. I can recognize that posting style from before chatgpt existed, he posted here all the time in the late 2000s.
>So much mindbreak over a Ado image attached to a harmless general post. "Adohaters" are just as schizo as "Adofags".
>>521458503Posts like this are the reason why more and more people are joining Team Ado while they learn to fucking despise you.
>>521458503It wasn't the norm but it wasn't that uncommon either. They used to be called effortposts.
>>521458587We should just ban him already. He's embarrassed himself enough.
>>521458503You're a retard.
>>521447929Place your bets. Is this alluding to a returning character, or a new one?
>>521458948The crystal looks like a paint blob. It's leading us to Ado.
>>521458948Chuchu and the animal friends, it's color coded.
>>521458667i like effortposting but i feel the worsening states of some of the videogame boards will cause more people to say it's ai or just look past it entirely.
>>521459059Maybe, that would fit the Forgotten Land = human world theory. Or maybe it could be Drawcia, she could be from there.
>>521458948galacta knight revival
https://x.com/nokiyopoi1310/status/1910671028537483302
>>521458948New one, I don't think they're gonna waste an entire DLC just to bring a character back, it's gonna be some mystical new villain though this does give me hope that they're gonna be built up pretty well at least, and maybe wont just be Crystal Fecto Elfilis.Hopefully...
>>521459128That would be very unexpected. Big if true.
>>521459128with the animal theming i'm surprised they weren't in the base game in some way, it's probably for something new but an ending with all the animal friends would be just as kino.
>>521460030I never noticed that they made Rick a Rayman.
>>521460683The limb fog consumes...
It's going to be a new character. Yall still dont get that they're pulling a TotK and retconning
Everyone always says Forgotten Land ignores new lore but doesn't the Japanese translation imply the people who abandoned the Beast Pack and Elfilis were The Ancients
>>521460852maybe, maybe not we shall see.
>>521460973the english translation implies that as well if you have basic reading comprehension. the entire game implies that pretty much.
>>521460973I mean yeah it's kind of obvious with the way things are worded and elifis' chamber looks like the nova chamber which we already know was built by the ancients because magolor said they made clock work stars.
>>521461128The English translation implies the 'land of dreams' is Dream Land which makes no sense, while the JP translation uses the same phrasing for Halcandra
>>521461174Considering the translation was supervised by Kumazaki a lot after the shitshow that was Star Allies' English translation I'd find that odd, can you give an example, or just a general place to look? Either way I think the ancients are implied, just kinda in a different way.
>>521461247I was incorrect. What connects it to Halcandra is actually in both translations. Halcandra is titled "The Land of Dreams"
>>521461772Oh it's cool dw, people make mistakes. That's actually really cool, I love how accurate the translation of FL is, a LOT of effort was put into it compared to just giving the story to the whims of the localizers lol.
so>the ancients live in this other dimension and build up a civilization with cars, buildings, infrastructure, etc>fecto elfilis crash lands and begins attacking the natives>he is trapped with their superior technology >his powers are used to escape the forgotten land and enter halcandra >they build the master crown and the lor starcutter, using the latter to escape into the main dimension of popstar and build a bunch of shit there >centuries later elfilis shits the bed and makes kirby come over
>>521462219Likely considering the Tree Crown arena they went to Halcandra first, which would check out with why Magolor's so obsessed with the place. My guess is it was their first stop, they build a bunch of stuff and either leave it like they did the New World, or it got destroyed like shown in the Master Crown cutscene, but they just didn't care.They also had to built the Clockwork Stars, and a whole bunch of other stuff between that and now.
It would be cool if the reason The Ancients made some batshit insane weapons was to prevent more invasions like Elfilis
>>521462484I mean they have magic wish granting giant cat stars, and like 4 billion magical artifacts that they leave around the universe, those are probably contingencies for that kinda thing they just forgot about.
i still think it's weird that the game wants you to pity elfilis when he came there and started fucking everything up immediately for no reason
I predict Star-Crossed World will vaguely hint at Elfilis's origins. Probably some bullshit parallel world Jamba Heart because it's clearly related to Kirby in some convoluted way.
>>521462219don't forget they also gave hyness the boot>>521462380they also built the star cutter too and these little robot fellows, it's pretty much confirmed they were on shiver star considering the connections forgotten land made.
>>521463075we already know elifis is from the cosmos so it'd be kinda redundant to focus on.my guess is we're going to get some crystal shard lore what with crystals being able to open portals too, void lore isn't out of the question.
>>521462617Every living thing can empathize with his primitive desire to exert dominance over others. He is to be pitied because he never learned to grow past his lonely worldview until his body was completely destroyed and his soul reduced to a small fragment.
>>521463075i think what happened was Elfilis dying left one of his portals open and randomly pulled in a Jamba Heart prison, possibly for one of the other 3 Heroes of Yore besides Galacta Knight
oh yeah didnt show this but for the level editor when saving for Rtdl or DX it brings up this option to select which game to save for. Currently retooling all of the UI to have proper animations and not look like shit, have to finish the Light tab for Rtdl along with making the level params editable but I think i can get this knocked out today, or i hope at least
Where the fuck did the “permanent landmark” dreamstalk frok the TD ending go?
>>521468652Haltmann chopped it down because he thought it would be funny
>>521468652
>>521458948It's going to lead us to Neichel who turns out to be Ado.
>>521468652In an ideal world Popstar would constantly be getting all these permanent additions whenever we see it>Moon blown up into a crescent moon in Adventure>rainbow bridges>a crack from Megaton Punch>the rainbow rings that replace the ones Zero cracked in DL3>the Dreamstalk>maybe a city or 2 resembling the urbanization forced by HWC (who's to say some natives didn't like the modernization?)>the Jambastion>chunks that got taken out as Popstar and the New World approached the roche limit
>>521447929Honestly from what we’ve seen from the intro and the implication from this, it’s someone the fans would knowit’s either>Elfilis returning because it’s a DLC>Galacta Knight, who is associated with his crystal prison and holding “great power”>Sectonia, because of her affinity for gems and flowers
>>521473047they’re all on the underside of popstar and we’re seeing the top of it in SA and FL instead
https://x.com/Bendedede/status/1908634226611896766
>>521448772adeline has nothing to make her stand out beyond being an artist and being a human being and has zero lines of dialogue to top that off. you can just admit you love little scrimblos its not that hard
>>521478967>zero lines of dialogueThis isn't just an adeleine case.
>>521443218>>521478967>Smashfaggot trying to denounce every character besides King dedede, Meta knight and Kirby while using scrimblo and tumblr buzzwordsSakurai's not going to suck you off, he also left trash bros.
>>521479190i am very well aware. the same applies to most like i said beforeall im getting at is i cannot get into anyone if they dont have some sort of depth that isnt just a cuh-razy character design or cute factor for very clear mass appeal. yeah its kirby so thats bound to be a thing but you can definitely tell thats been a more prominent case with the characters theyve dumped lately and i guess marx too but hes just another crazy motherfucker. regardless, scrimblos.
>>521478967>being a humanYou can downplay the other notes all you want, but this is a distinct reason she sticks out amongst most of her comparisons. The only thing that would ever degrade that intrigue is the immediate presence of another original Kirby human, which would be a bad decision on all fronts.
>>521482271I hope humans continue to be vaguely alluded to in the series and we never actually see them aside from the rare case of Ado.
>>521482492i disagree, partially, it would be cool if humans were ancients and met a fate like they did in XB2
>>521447929It's just referring to enemies and the Starries you rescue.
>>521485351That would be so fucking disappointing but maybe you’re right
loaded in the rtdl kirby model since i need it for some stuff and man.look at him.
>>521478967Yeah sure and Meta Knight is just a lazy blue Sword Kirby and nothing more, anyone can be a reductive retard
Adofags just swing on everyone and hope something sticks, kek
>>521488462You got BTFO, dude, stop coping
>>521488640>you got BTFO’dWhen??
I'm fairly certain Star-Crossed World won't involve Forgo at all or expand on the Fectos merging since I doubt they would require you to beat The Ultimate Cup Z.
>>521488821Like an hour ago
>>521488974I’m not the Meta Knight poster sir
>>521489067I am, though. And yeah I concede.
>>521488972>I doubt they would require you to beat The Ultimate Cup Z.That's not necessarily off the table, since Elfilis' ultimate demise is finally conceding to his other half.
>>521489702And people say chivalry is dead
>>521489702I don’t believe you.
>>521488972The levels unlock as you progress the game (the treehouse footage they were only in world 2 but the star crossed levels were unlocked) so it's likely a side story with its own plot
>>521488972they could make an Ultimate Cup Z EX and include the dlc and main game bosses in a non-canon nightmare arenaAfterall Cup Z is just fights manifested from Forgo’s mind and memories.
>>521487842why squish
>>521488972I remember reading somewhere that the new stages unlock alongside the maingame so I'm guessing it could be a "If you do these you get an alternative ending to the main story" thing? So maybe that could be how they do it, have Forgo use the power of whatever is bringing down the star crystals to restore himself into Elfilis instead of Elfilin/Morpho. All of Forgotten Land's content is framed in a fairly linear "all these events do happen in succession and are canon" manner where stuff like Forgo Dreams is presented as happening right after the main game, and Ultimate Cup Z after that, so it'd be interesting if Star-Crossed World is where they sprinkle in the "dubiously canon EX mode" ala the Meta Knightmares or Dededetour
>>521447929Somehow...he returned...
>>521492029i kneel nebula-sama
>>521492003to be honest that would be incredibly annoying, i would prefer it to be it’s own story with the “dubiously canon” stuff being regulated to the new arena. Why should i pay 20 bucks for a dlc that i had to buy a whole new console for when it isn’t even canon to the story?
>>521443218If you're trying to imply Bandana Dee is more developed than any other character I'd have to disagree. He's the most inconsistent and shallow Kirby character, there doesn't seem to be any meaningful vision or creative intent behind his character. People that try to put him on the same level as the main 3 or Magolor are delusional.
>>521495201You made a lot of Bandanafags angry with that post.
>>521482271I think it could work, especially after Forgotten Land, but only if they establish first that the cast's bond with Ado is special because she's a true friend, and being human or not doesn't matter to them. Especially if Ado serves as a sort of bridge between Kirby and the Long-Desired Land she comes from.
>>521495779I don't mean to, I'm being genuine. He was just a skin for Waddle Dee to be the weakest character in Megaton Punch. In Revenge of the King, he's Dedede's most loyal minion who stands out for his grit despite being not much tougher than the average Waddle Dee. In Return to Dream Land he's a hero who's good at spear. In stuff like Battle Royale or Fighters 2 he's Kirby's best friend who has no loyalty to King Dedede. But then they have songs about how he wants to overcome Kirby?There are a lot of pieces for a good character there but Hal treats him more like a placeholder to easily fill roles than a real character.
>>521496267I like Bandee but yeah, and this applies for a lot of the cast unfortunately because Hal really doesn't like... doing anything with any of them, outside of really rare cases like with Magolor. he has character bits there, but they're scattered, like Revenge of the King and The Apple Juice Song to where there's nothing consistent. They have *some* ideas but not enough to do anything concrete because they're too scared to branch outside of the main cast in any noticeable way I feel. He's better than most others by proxy of at least having a small taste of something due to his appearances versus not being there at all, but it's kinda like comparing having 10 cents to 15 cents, when other characters have a dollar. Like sure it's more, but, not by that much if you look at it in the grand scheme. Also, you're not even being rude btw, dw.
>sakurai and toby fox are buttbuddies>there's a non-zero percent chance toby fox will do music for Air Riders
>>521497302I wouldn't be opposed especially if it's for a spooky place or event, Toby is good at doing fun spooky music.
>>521501132MY PISS.
>>521501160>t. Shadow Kirby
>>521501132A chunk of the heart, because it's visibly breaking into pieces?
>>521497302idk how to feel about that, toby's music is good but the stuff hes made for other games has been honestly pretty forgettable.seeing other guest composers could be cool, yoko shimomura's music is always goodalso that makes me think, is sakurai the anonymous producer toby hired?
Any one know how I can change Kirby's color in RTDL Deluxe? Mods or cheats work too I just want to play as blue kirby
>>521504850Based autismo.
>>521504850You can use a blue Kirby mask you get it in Merry Magoland
>>521495201honestly? i dont even like bandana dee bc of the amount of times hes shoe horned in and doesnt really contribute much other than having to be the second player just so he represents waddle dees which are heavily marketable in japan. theres a reason why you see more waddle dee merch than that of meta and dedede, but they made way for bandana just to represent them all, and what you get is like you said, inconsistent. however yeah because of the fact hes shoe shoe-horned in all the time, hes bound to have more eyes on him, but it is what it is so thats why i even grouped them to begin with
>>521504850according to this there's a cheat to do it, as to why, as a person whos modded the games before the color isnt a simple texture change but a shader thing and i dont think anybody knows how to change ithttps://gamebanana.com/requests/46992
>>521506812They really need to quit treating him as a standalone tandem with the other Waddle Dees. That doesn't inherently mean delete him, but they should take a page from 64 Dee and only have him eclipse the other Dees when necessary. Rainbow Curse is the only other game to have ever gotten that idea right.
>>521510660Issue is Waddle Dees are very marketable, like absurdly marketable, as the other Anon says, it'd be like getting rid of their main cash cow in some form, Bandana Dee being there alows them to have a Waddle Dee do cute things (see the Player 2 cutscenes in Forgotten Land and all his mouthful mode interactions), which helps drive into sales for general Waddle Dee stuff even if they're not the main enemy in the game.
Is the unnamed waddle dee from kirby 64 bandana dee?
>>521513435i don't know. i like to think he is.
>>521513435>>521513507Well, Bandana Dee is used in Adeleine and Ribbon's character trailer and appears alongside Kirby and Dedede, AND he is the only character to hold up his score result in RTDLX with his left hand, while 64Dee is also the only one to use his left hand for that purpose
>>521513668They also used Paradee for the 64 reference in game for the intro skits, so could go either way honestly. I'd like to think so but does make the timeline weird since that'd be 64 before Revenge of the King, and I feel like contextually it taking place after Dreamland 1 makes more sense, as opposed to Dedede saving the world with Kirby then being like>TIME FOR REVENGE!
>>521511390That's why he was so popular after Super Star Ultra even though he was a minor supporting character. But taking away the traits that define Waddle Dees, making him a great hero instead of still clumsy and pathetic by nature, but still with a sense of determination that makes him unique, takes away from that appeal. I think that's why when Hal does marketing, they almost always use a generic Waddle Dee with Kirby, because Bandana Dee is now divorced from what makes Waddle Dees so lovable.
>>521513435I don't think so, he was way more chill and dopey.
Bandana literally isn't even repped in merch that much anymore lmfao. It's just a generic Dee.Bandana's status as a mainstay is questionable right now because they half assed him in Forgotten Land, can easily remove his status as the 'spear wielder' by letting Elfiin swing around Elfilis' spear, and don't need him for merch because they shill Generic Dee anyway.If I was a Bandanafag, I'd be VERY worried right now.
>>521523194obvious bait is obvious but oh my god can we talk about this fucking merch selection? Half the shelf is filled with lightbulb mouth kirby and not like Elfilin or something? Then you just have all the leftover Spider plushies from Star Allies. I can get the big Kirby ones (I own one) even if the ones on the right look eh, but my god this is a very mediocre plush selection.This is the US store right? Man, why does Japan always get the good shit?
>>521523604>Man, why does Japan always get the good shit?Kirby's way more marketable in the East, and it has to share the space it has at Nintendo NY with all the other Nintendo franchises. I remember picking up an Archer Kirby plush when I went there years ago. Still own it to this day.
>>521523604oh god you're right this is actually shit. Despite Meta Knight and a Waddle Dee being plastered there you can buy absolutely nothing else but some variation of Kirby. He's the most marketable sure but what do you do when you DON'T want Kirby?
>>521523604>obvious bait is obvious Not everything you personally disagree with is bait.
>>521524153Yeah it sucks, and even weirder on the shelf next to him are the recent guys from Splatoon 3, so just having Kirby is a really odd choice in general. Like you have Meta Knight but the most you can get is Kirby with a Meta Knight hat when he's right there, same deal with Waddle Dees. I can see to a certain point why it's not the same level of merch fuckery Japan has (a cafe couldn't open in the west unless it was in Nintendo Land at Universal imo) but man it's so disappointing.
>>521523604>Half the shelf is filled with lightbulb mouth kirby and not like Elfilin or something?For what it's worth I think that's just a general consequence of the main Nintendo stores rotating inventory according to the latest release, but yeah it's odd they'd have mouthfuls but not Elfilin or anyone else. Off the top of my head, Nintendo Osaka's Kirby plush selection when I went there mainly had the staples (Kirby, Dedede, Meta Knight, Bandana Dee), as well as Marx and I think Magolor. Anything that wasn't those guys I think was just Dream Buffet plushies. As for the cafe, that one very specifically only really has stuff for the Cafe branding itself, as well as the latest games (they had Star Allies, Forgotten Land, and RtDX) and I think an OST or 2 outside the dedicated Sounds of Cafe CDs. Thinking back... Man I really wish Kirby was as big a brand here in the West as it is in Japan. I don't know if I still have the image but I stopped at a 7 Eleven one day after going to Book Off and they had a fuckin Kirby fireworks children's kit for sale (it was around Fall's festival season iirc), I'll see if I can find the image and post it again.
>>521530385Found it
>>521531715magolor selling dubious and highly illegal fire works to children seems very on brand.
>>521530385faster
>>521535529Kirby sells kids the safe fireworks or sparklers, then when they walk away Magolor appears from a dark alley and asks them if they want 'The real deal' with fireworks smuggled in from the New World
>>521536984yeah he sells those extremely absurdly named ones like "THE RIPPER" and "NUCLEAR HOLOCAUST" "RAGNAROK FIST" so over the top they blow off your fingers, rip off your eyebrows and give you permanent tinnitus.
>>521445924I need to peg him
>>521540560>peggingMeta Knight is for watching his face slowly melt into pleasure as he sinks his length inside you, you fucking degenerate.
>>521540560be real he'd just end up dueling you if you tried.
>>521541694He's 8 fucking inches. His dick must be even smaller. He gets pegged
>>521542206he could be hiding a massive shlong somehow.
>>521514230I like to think Dedede's revenge was spurred on by Kirby attacking him in Squeak Squad.
why kirby character canonically has the biggest cock and balls as confirmed by an in game source (as there are of course many)
>>521544008well they are giant balls so it stands to reason they have the big peenor.
>>521544008Void Termina. Why else would he have a loincloth?
>>521513435I believe that 64 Dee grew into a Parasol Waddle Dee given the intros
>>521530385Is Marx really that popular that they put him 5th the main quartet in merch lineups in Japan? i thought Forgotten Land was the best selling Kirby so i thought it would be Elfilin
>>521544008Haltmann is the only vaguely humanoid male in the Kirby cast that probably has lower extremities given his biological daughterThe only other options beside him are probably Rick and Nago since they’re also male mammals that procreate, maybe Nruff since it’s just a pigTaranaza and the birds are probably N/A and Nightmare would’ve come close if he was more than arms with a head.
>>521523194that’s a LOT of fucking Spider Kirbies, and a noticeable lack of sword or bomb or fire. why is HAL so fucking dumb when it comes to merch?
>>521546634>blaming HAL for NoA's stockinghttps://wikirby.com/wiki/Sword/gallery#Merchandise
>>521546860I know the plushie exists, i’m just saying wouldn’t supply and demand mean more sword kirbies than spider kirbies?
>>521543361Meta Knight having a big penis is propaganda made by him in order to make others believe he's cool and manly and not a cringe cute puffball
>>521547058If he has a dick then Susie is gonna be holding the key to his chastity cage
>>521547058he is a tad cringe I suppose.
Speaking of Copy Abilities, what abilities do you want to see in Air Riders?
>>521546430I think Nruff is a girl.
>>521547448Poison would be fun it'd leave like deadly fart clouds, doctor could give passive healing maybe? alot of the abilties kinda do the same thing so it's hard to make them unique.
>>521547856poison was pretty much just reskinned water to cover the fact that Star Dream fucked up all of Dreamland’s water, it wasn’t a real “new ability” but it has a cool design
>>521415590looks too realistic to be kirbo land
>>521548712Air Riders is being made by the Smash Ultimate people and not HAL so the whole game will have Ultimate’s weird greyness probably
>>521548897the colors aren't what im talking about
>>521548217Poison had some uniqueness to it that made it stand out from water, besides it's not like some abilities have shared similar moves before.>>521549107the original air ride had some psudo realistic (albeit peppered with fantasy) courses.
>>521547448none so we see more than 3 playable characters
>>521547448>>521550138Why can’t you do both? Star Allies did it. Dedede could get abilities and get a frost, aqua, or plasma hammer for example.
>>521550414those are just elements. if they do want to stick to just elements though fuck it why not. the more i play air ride the more i kinda crave the rest of the cast bc they never really get a chance to shine. might as well do it for what appears to be sakurais last game
>>521540560Why does it have to be pegging? I'm tired at a lot of the time when Meta Knight is mentioned or that MetaSusie sex occurs there's a higher chance of pegging involved, it's so boring. I agree with >>521541694.
>>521550138>>521550576>yfw customer service is in air riders as announcer
>>521550737Because Susie is unhinged and literally turned him into a pet robot? She can sit on his face i guess
>>521550963gallons. of cum.
>>521551252Considering how big Meta Knight's face/body is I don't think that'd be very effective.
Will Galacta Knight be in Star-Crossed World?
>>521550963don't count on that.>>521553062at the very least they will bring him up indirectly.
>>521553415He’s so cool i miss him so much man
>>521553723giving him a 3D fight would be interesting.
stress test
>>521551252Fair, I can't argue with that.
>>521555657They really do need to clear up the whole "shadow Kirby" and "shadow Kirby" thing, it's a mess.
>>521557194I mean, they did in Fighters 2's descriptions.https://wikirby.com/wiki/Shadow_Kirby#Flavor_text_in_Kirby_Fighters_2But it's odd he appears in Star Allies with his normal colors.
i keep thinking that a kind of fusion of kirby air ride and sonic riders might do wellboth have a core mechanic in their vehicles hovering just above the ground, and both have elements involving rails, limited flight and busting through walls and obstaclesonly difference would be that riders consistently has some kind of fuel management and ring collection incentives in parameter boosts to its games, while air ride doesnt have such complexity layers
>>521554262I hope they do and don’t just reskin Morpho, i want him to do that badass hover gliding that’s unique to him like in Ultra and Robobot.
>>521557194>>521558268I like to think “glowing Shadow Kirby” is just his equivalent to Hybernova and giving him a huge power buff for combat, especially since that version of Shadow Kirby showed up in Triple Deluxe
was in a thingy with people drawing kirby characters and drew this disgusting creature of the night.that is all

you can play literally any piece of music in Rtdl on any stage. also im avoiding the energy blorbs here because the game crashes if kirby touches one. still cant check quite yet but makes me wonder just how different the code is between base Rtdl and Magolor Epilouge to where things just cannot mix. Cause this game is using the exact same code as Rtdl just with a different can of paint. but yea musichttps://files.catbox.moe/lnbjt5.mp4https://files.catbox.moe/xbhf3i.mp4

>>521559137more franchises should have sonic riders' style for spinoffs, the futuristic cities and more radical designs are so fucking cool and i think kirby can pull it off well.
>>521594506>Zan is the star ridesomeone needs to draw that like this.
I wonder what Kirby is up to today
>>521594506Daroach with a flying ship is a given I feel. Would look very nice.
>>521591131batamon with some sort of cel shaded rider came into my mind for some reason.
>>521594506Dark Meta Knight would be flying with his own wings.
>>521616371NTA but this brings up another talking point. Every Kirby character that has a more conventional way of travel than air rides should have two modes where, for example, meta knight would have his air ride 1 self, with wings and sword attacks, but also you can choose a second mode in air riders 2 where he can just ride the vehicles.

>>521591131One that becomes faster and more responsive the quicker it moves, but starts off slow and slippery with poor handling. At low speeds, it’s tough to control or gain speed. Drifting, hitting walls, getting bumped by other Kirbys, etc. At high speeds, it’s a challenge for the opposite reason. Its razor-sharp handling and blazing pace requires split-second reactions to maintain. With enough practice, a skilled player could master it to blaze through tracks at incredible speeds, though, such players would be a big target. Maybe call it tu the Surge Star.

Hey, who wants to check out some old Kirby fansites?http://tkt058.s19.xrea.com/top.htmlThis one hasn't been updated since 2005, and there's a lot of cool old fanart on there.https://web.archive.org/web/20021202075517/http://www.geocities.co.jp/Playtown-Knight/5811/Here's a Geocities Meta Knight fansite, dating back to 2002. I haven't checked all the links yet, and it might be a little mojibake'd depending on your browser, but it looks pretty cool.https://web.archive.org/web/20030812230314/http://galaxca.hp.infoseek.co.jp/top.htmlThis one's a real treat if you're interested in the old anime fandom, and most of the affiliate links were archived, too. A lot of Metafumu, too, if you dig a little. I grabbed some fics for the Megapack from there, though there's a couple I'm still trying to save from mojibake hell.

>>521627078I don't think I am. It could be the Super Star helpers, it could be a handful of KA mid-bosses, I don't claim to know or expect anything concrete, but the title SUGGESTS a significant character roster, and Nintendo/Sakurai aren't prone to carelessly titling games.

>>521637484I'd say so, I'm looking at the icons again and it sort of implies the Kirby roleplay spans from not only the games but the anime, mangas, and novels. You can roleplay as Fatty Puffer EX
>>521626576>>521627528It's because the Switch 2's "gimmick" is the social stuff and the first 2 years of a Nintendo console are always when the games push the console's gimmick front and center. So "Riders" refers to other players. A huge expansion of City Trial is like 99% guaranteed to be the game's selling point.
>>521637774This but unironically. It is far too easy to bait you /kdg/ KEKS!
>>521638876All the more reason to believe there will be a significant cast of characters, since that draws a lot of people in for multiplayer focused titles.
Kumazaki Screen Pausers, Sakurai Dick Riders, Shimomura Missing Persons...the Chadship Squad is laughing at us again...
>>521638876Huh, that's actually a good point I didn't think of but makes sense with the Gamechat feature they'd want to have as many games that are playable with friends in the early years of the console. I wonder if there'll be like raid bosses or mutliplayer online missions. Would also mean hopefully the cast would be good, in terms of playable characters.

>>521701478Purely because they put too much stock in that old headcanon of the gloves being magical or some shit so that he still had little nubs underneath like Kirby.
>>521701478>>521701616>headcanon
>>521701684Doesn't count.
>>521701684I suppose you also expect us to believe that Meta Knight has pure black eyes and currently wields a silver sword.
CHADurai will bring back Meta Knight's real eyes because he doesn't look down on his audience.
>>521700804He really has the same arms as Kirby, we see in Super Star Stacker. I think his gloves are probably magic, like everything else he equips himself with.
>>521701616>gloves being magical or some shit so that he still had little nubs underneath like KirbyYou say that like that isn't the coolest fucking thing ever.

>>521702510Nah, not really.
>>521702426I know you are but what am I?
>>521702609Yes it is.
we're gonna drama over the canon appearance of Meta Knight's hands. Look at his noodle arms in smash (sakurai) and forgotten land (kumazaki) and any other 3D game. He has noodle arms and then hands like Dedede's.
All these mfs really out here trusting one screen from a Japan-only SNES puzzle game for their deep Meta Knight anatomy lore
>>521702428I mean Meta Knight also has arms and wings and thumbs while Kirby doesn't, no reason he can't have hands.
>>521702412>>521702609Stop being a boring sperg, put at least a little effort into your posts.
I like to think if Meta Knight doesn't wear his gloves his arms will slowly morph back into a nub shape.
If Kirby's a juvenile of MK's species, why is he so much stronger?
>>521702796You don't need to seethe so much over someone having an opinion, anon.
if you guys wont shut the fuck up ill ask the robot for adeleine with no clothes
>>521702779Those are just his gloves, and growing the wings is a magic technique.
>>521702943oh shut the fuck up. you're going to do it anyways or some other anon will.
>>521702932Right, so knock it off with your retarded "nuh uh" posts. It adds literally nothing to the conversation, you retarded faggot, it's just dull and obnoxious.
>>521702915MK holds back a vast majority of the time because he doesn't want his mask broken, and he retreats just about every time it is with as much vigor as he started the fight with.
Japanese people online say Sakurai himself said in a interview that Meta Knight's hands are nubs and the gloves are magical or some shit like that. But there's no source??? At least not in English so I can't confirm it. But they also say other stuff that allegedly was said in said interview so idk
noodle arms with big hands has been a staple of the kirby series since the start. Meta Knight's official 3D models literally prove he has hands.anons assblasted he doesnt look identical to kirby.I know, hard pill to swallow, been there, done that
>>521703140Tell me these >>521702510 >>521702725 have any effort.
I'm going to cut his hands off so he can have nubs
>>521702993To give a very autistic response, I checked the Meta Knight FL model and he has opposable thumbs which he can move around so it's not just apart of his gloves unless you wanna say that's magic as well I guess. The wings I can get because he can just summon them at will, but the thumbs are hard to deny.
>>521702915He's not, Kirby can't even hurt Meta Knight when he drops the chivalrous thing and gets serious. Meta Knight tries to fight at Kirby's level, and at best Kirby breaks his mask, which is what makes him flee.
>>521703371show his arms
>>521703448honestly looks weird without the shoulder pads I dont like it
>>521703371Yeah, it's nagic. He can also move his cape however he wants and use it to teleport.
>>521703624GET DOINKED ON NUBFAGS
>>521703675>nagicMinor spelling mistake, your entire argument is invalidated and Meta Knight has actual hands
the machine really was 102% accurate.i kneel, HR-ST SEETHROUGH rpfag
Must be magic. A shit ton of stuff in the Kirby universe can only be explain as "because magic" so why wouldn't that apply to Meta Knight too?
Just be glad Meta Knight hasn't been turned into a raymanoid like 90% of the universe.
>>521703952Or maybe he just has hands and this Sonicfag-tier autism isn't worth it.
>>521703257I don't think it's meant to be taken literally, since it's always obscured by his pauldrons.>>521703740Darn.Also worth noting that in the original Super Star, his arms are exactly the same as Kirby's and the gloves are depicted like balls at the ends.
>>521703675>>521703740It's a portmanteau of "not magic. As in Meta Knight has arms and wings.
>>521703952i mean if you wanna go by that logic you can say that the explanation to everything can be "magic lol" that kinda shuts down any actual discussion of the matter. Can just say you prefer the older design with the nubs and that's fine, it makes him less Kirby esque and you could say that's missing the point, but it's still objectively canon, you can't just erase anything you dont like with "magic lol" just admit you don't like it, nobody will judge you.
>>521703624he looks naked even with the mask on, impressive
Why are you all pretending to argue about this?
>>521704040Sprite limitations. Check his artwork for Super Star and you'll see thumbs.
>>5217041813D limitations. They're meant to be the same shape as Kirby's arms.
>>521704374>3d limitationswut lol
It would be very shitposter-ish of me to say>kek, nubfags can't even come up with original argumentsbut eh.
>>521704497Can't risk his arms clipping through his gloves and pauldrons.

>>521702993Someone missed a few background pixels lol
>>521704519It woult also make you look like a retarded /sthg/poster so it's for the best you didn't.
>>521704181Well I don't like it. At all. But I'm not trying to shut down discussions or theories. I just feel the moment everything must have a logical explanation it miss its charm. Dream Land being a magical place with its own rules and logic it's what make it so appealing in the first place. Now it feels like "like Earth but the trees are weird shaped and shit happens".
>>521704746I suppose so.
>>521704579Ok more 3d autism (though not too related to your response just wanted to share), hal does not give a shit about clipping at all lol, especially in FL. Almost every major character with arms just has them clipping into the body with no connection to the actual body itself, the only exceptions are Clawroline and Fecto Elfilis off the top of my head (and desu they didnt have to for him, his arms go info the neck fluff) but yeah, Hal could really care less about things clipping into eachother
>>521704792you dismiss a strong kirby aesthetic which is those noodle arms plus big hands or feet. Anime, games, etc. I know many had head-canons of meta knight having kirby nubs. But 3D kirby literally proves it otherwise, and not recently, it goes back over 20 years.
All this time I've been imagining the Knights with longer, more flipper-like versions of Kirby's nubs. Never knew about all this noodle + hand stuff. Now I'm even more convinced MK is not meant to be the same species as Kirby in the modern era. It was obviously the intent back in Adventure but nowadays the visual similarities that Knights share with Kirby aren't much more than Waddle Dees or Bouncies.
>>521705195HOLY SHIT LEO'S FUCKING ARM CAME OFF SOMEONE CALL A VET
>>521705195Not the kind of clipping I meant.
>>521706017yea thats why i said not too related to your actual post but i wanted to share anyways cause i think its neat
>>521703427This, the Knights are so much stronger than Kirby, they literally just want to test him and make sure he isn’t gonna be a baddie.Kirby has infinite POTENTIAL, not power.
>>521705358You're not meant to see Meta Knight's arms in the first place, they're not really noodles. He's still the same species as Kirby.
>>521706235I wonder if they ever tested Gooey. You'd think they'd be somewhat concerned about him.

>>521706542Gooey’s too retarded so nobody is concerned KEK

>>521717546Mad that Meta Knight abandoned him, his WARP STAR, because he found a stupid magic cape that turned into wings.
>>521717152You're hired. You start right away.See that castle up on the hill there? Get to stacking. Every body inside needs to be stacked neatly and securely at the bottom of the hill by the end of the day.
>>521718336Sire we needed a new JANNY, not a new STACKER.
>>521718441Oh he'll be takin' out the trash alright! Heh, heh, heh!
Ah sweet, a new janitor for dedede’s castle, we’ve needed one for a while. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McipMkNa6R4
>>521703624His arms are so lanky without pauldrons lol. Imagine what they'd look like without the gloves as well
>>521718835REEEEEE STOP HIRING EVIL ALIENS RRREEEEEEEEE I HATE FUN
Remember when Meta Knight was made of steel?
>>521725612I don't want to sound like a zoomer, but Melee's trophies were such a fucking vibe
>>521690337Ragyo Kiryuin moment
>>521701858You can steal Galaxia from him in Forgotten Land and he continues the fight with his old silver sword
>>521680539What about Modern Day Adeleine? she’s changed quite a bit.
>>521727963That's actually his first sword from Kirby's Adventure that he's kept after all this time. You can tell because of the shape, the muted gold palette and the lack of a ruby in the hilt.
>>521728723it’s really adorable he kept it, but also kinda weird lore-wise given Superstar Ultra retconned him as always having Galaxia
>>521728863Aye.
>>521728529those fingers piss me off so much
>>521729040why?
>>521738920her index and middle finger are way shorter than the rest and are uneven on the position of the hand
>>521740183huh yeah that's interesting.she also doesn't have finger nails.
>>521740296That’s an incredibly adorable Adeleine reaction image
>>521728863It can be explained that he always had Galaxia, but deliberately used a weaker weapon in his first duel with Kirby.
>>521738920Her hands are way too big for a little cartoon girl, her proportions are a lot cuter in 64
>>521728723That ain't gold, brother.
>>521713142Kek
Would you say Kirby has finally become an A-list Nintendo franchise outside of Japan? Obviously it's no Mario/Pokemon/Zelda, but I couldn't have seen it being treated the way it was in that Direct before the '20s.
>>521749664It's implied she aged between 64 and Star Allies. She might be a teenager or even a young adult in her next game.
>>521750730Where is that implied?
>>521750380No, too much of a jumbled mess of a franchise to be A-list. Directors are too scared to build off what came before.
>>521751694Her larger proportions and tallness compared to other characters.
>>521752486I think that's just stylistic. Dedede also has massive arms and hands, and is bigger compared to 64, but Dedede was always old. Also Adeleine was even taller in some DL3 screens.
>>521752486Kirby is the exact same height as the guard rails for the escalators in Forgotten Land, which are typically 2'11". So if Kirby is 2'11", and the Forgotten Land really was inhabited by humans, then his scale in the game makes perfect sense.
>>521753038Her height was pretty much variable in the DL3 screens, probably due to being drawn by her. I think her in-game sprite/model is a closer approximation of her true proportions.
honestly the whole "Kirby is 8 inches tall" thing is really stupid when everything else in the universe is shrunk down to the point where 8 inches tall is basically 2'11 or 3ft tall as the other anon says. Like it's technically canon, but you could also say Kirby is a billion meters tall but that wouldn't matter because everything in the universe relative to him makes him 3ft tall. The series never uses his height in any way that actually brings it up as well, so it's kinda just a weird thing to even have to begin with.
>>521753869Running with that, Waddle Dee appears to be the same height as Kirby at 2'11" like always.Adeleine looks to be about 1.5 times taller than Kirby, about 4'4". If she's ethnically German, which is possible, considering her name, on average, that would place her at around 8-and-a-half years old.King Dedede appears around twice Kirby's height at about 5'10".Ribbon is slightly shorter than Kirby, but not by much, maybe at around 2'8".
Literally who the fuck cares? Who could possibly care about discussing the heights->It’s the Adopedos claiming she’s grown (to justify lewding her)Oh… Dios mio…
^retarded schizo
cool fact about magolor epilogue, you know those cloud blocks that block progress until you beat a level? There's are 60 duplicates of the exact same block in the block ID files. I believe this is because after each level, when you clear it, the game searches for blocks of a certain ID to clear, and since they didn't have any other built in way in the return to dreamland engine to clear the clouds, they just made sixty duplicated for each of the levels. I think the world map only uses around 60-75 but they gave themselves a lot of leeway with this which is funny.
>>521753869>So if Kirby is 2'11",Getting retconned in Air Riders. Kirby's back to 8" as he should be. Humans don't belong in this series.
>>521762352>Humans don’t belong in this seriesThis but unironically. Nobody is perfect, and Adeleine was Shimomura-san’s one and only mistake - an easily remedied one, however. Post-Nuclear winter Earth was based though and should be kept
>>521755375>If she's ethnically German, which is possible, considering her nameIt's more likely that she's Japanese since she uses Japanese honorifics and titles for her friends. She was also called Ado-chan in some old magazines and they brought it back as a player name in Dream Buffet.
>>521764585>picSo, the whole "Ado isn't Adeleine" thing is bullshit?
>>521765184It always was. Even the Japanese RP site has the Ado profile on the "alternate" character category alongside possessed Adeleine. I think the only reason it ever became a confusion in Japan was due to modern Kirby books giving non-answers.
>>521765184It's always been Wikirby autism.
>>521765184Lore autists need explicit confirmation for literally everything ever and can't comprehend the anniversary book making a joke about them not being the same person as being a joke.
>>521766449It was Wikirby autism before Wikirby existed?
>>521725701They were cool for transitioning a lot of characters into more detailed 3D. Plus the trophy gallery music was great.
>>521764585If she was Japanese, then she might be around 10 instead. I think the use of honorifics is more of a meta localization thing, though. Everyone in Dream Land uses them.
>>521765184Always was.
>>521765184They only started acting weird and vague about it in the modern era. I'm guessing this is done to not disrespect certain staff who left HAL, since this situation was never clarified in an actual game.We'd probably be going through the same thing with Gooey if he didn't have a Melee trophy that clearly states he's the black blob from DL2.
>>521773841They made him so cute for DL3, I love it.
>>521768835It's like Super Metroid dev interview that trannies latch onto as gospel. It being a joke never even crossed their minds.
Why did Kirby replace Gooey with Bandana? This is NOT the Kirby i know.
>>521775375Gooey got sent like 50 invites to every kirby game after dreamland 3 but moments after reading he forgot what he read :(
>>521773841So bottom line, it is Sakurai's civic duty to clarify that Ado is Adeleine? Oh, great.
>>521774507>Super Metroid dev interview that trannies latch onto as gospelSomehow, despite being a massive Metroid autist, I've never heard of this. Is this where the whole>sorry HECKIN' TRANSPHOBES, Samus canonically CHOPPED HER DICK OFF and it's CANONthing gets any of its ammunition? I always thought it was them stretching the Chozo DNA gene-splicing thing.
>>521775375Gooey was taking a nap under Kirby's bed for a couple decades.
>>521776338It is. A little blurb printed in the Japanese strategy guide, straight from 1994.https://metroiddatabase.com/features/super-metroid-development-team-interview/
>>521777015Imagine being so insecure and needing to force yourself and your identity onto one of gaming's most badass badasses so fucking badly that you look at something like this and decide>yeah, that obvious joke from the graphic guy is real and canon and I'm never going to shut up about itSweet Jesus on a biscuit.
Bandana Doodoo being the second player instead of Gooey has always been so stupid. Gooey is more interesting in gameplay and also has the copy ability meaning he's perfect for a player two
>>521772754As in the people who edit fan wikis are the ones with that mentality.
>>521773841
>>521778386>"This isn't blackface, I'm actual Dark Matter."
>>521775985It's more that the character's creator (Shimomura or whoever) was still at HAL back when Melee was made, so the info could still be verified. Everything that confirms Ado is Adeleine comes from side media and design documents rather than text directly from a game or its manual. This could easily be written off as scrapped content if the creator suddenly changed their mind.
Bandana Dee will always be Dedede's brave right hand man in my book and not a traitor who showed more concern for Elfilin than his king.
>>521777809Even Kumazaki knows this considering how half assed Forgotten Land’s co op is.
>>521762352Humans have always been a natural part of the Kirby universe. In the original Kirby's Dream Land manual (both Japanese and English), Earth is mentioned by name, it's stated Pop Star is very far from it, confirming they're in the same universe. Later games confirm we're in the same galaxy. Kirby's not in some alternate universe where humans don't exist. The Kirby setting exists within a framework where humans are possible and plausible and that has been the case since day one. Next, Nightmare's humanoid shape strongly suggests he's a corrupted human or a former human.The anime (not canon, but supervised by Sakurai himself) even features human artwork and themes, weaving humans into the fabric of the Kirby world. It's a deliberate reinforcement of humanity's presence in the universe, straight from the creator's vision at the time.Kumazaki and Shimomura simply built on Sakurai's foundation. Adeleine, an artist friend from another world, or the Ancients, the mysterious civilization referenced since Return to Dream Land, later strongly implied to be humans in Forgotten Land. These additions expand on the subtle human-related threads he wove into the series from the start. Adeleine and the Ancients fulfill each other in a way, and they creatively enrich the human presence that was always there, just beneath the surface.>>521762632The only mistake Sakurai made is the idea idea that Kirby is only 8 inches tall.
>>521779195________ChatGPT_____________________________________________ _______ _ ___ ____________
>>521778949 No! Bandana is a traitor who turned on his King the instant his ass got beat. He is loyal only to his own safety and will willingly throw his support behind Kirby rather than the Kingdom and Deekind. You have to accept this, if you want to like Bandana. HAHAHHAHA!
>>521778731But those design documents were made by Shimomura himself. The art style is the same as his other concept art and the art he made when he pitched DL2.
>>521779195Not reading any of that. Sorry that happened to you, or I’m happy for you. Humans aren’t allowed in Kirby.
>>521779457Not correct, and not an argument. Your concession is accepted.
>>521779703You're not funny, you're not insightful, you're not right. What good are you? Your lack of argument will always be taken as a concession, and it is accepted.
>>521779915Impotent seething because you know Sakurai is cutting off the tumor that is Adeleine very, very soon. I enjoy your tears.
>>521778949>>521779481I liek both :)
>>521777809Animating Gooey is hard and apparently they couldn't even get Yellow Kirby to work due to hardware limitations, please understand.
>>521780349After "Kirby and the Abandoned Human World" was the most successful game in the series? I don't think I'm the one coping and seething here.
>>521780785>Kirby walks around Dead humans Millions of dollaroos >Kirby walks around an Alive humanGame sells like shit, creates pedophiles and autistic fags (such as (You)rself) shitting up my general, ruins the aesthetic and dreamlike lore of the franchiseYes, I believe I can see the problem here.
It really is like the early days again
>>521777015Wait thats it? I've heard about this and always assumed it was something like them being coy about whether she was male or female for a bit are you fucking kidding me lmao
>>521782024It's only like one guy getting autistically mad and shitposting about Sakurai.
>>521782294Yeah! Just like the early days. Isn't it wonderful/horrible?
>>521781764Kek. Yep, that's some gen-u-ine cope and seethe right there. 64 is a big fan favorite, and Star Allies was the most successful Kirby game since DL1, until Forgotten Land.
>>521782186That's it. Here's the original page, even.
>>521781764None of the three directors didn't like humans as a presence in the series. Sakurai had Nightmare, Shimomura had Adeleine, Kumazaki has Neichel/The Ancients. Sakurai and Shimomura also has human Nintendo characters like Mario or Samus cameo in their games but that's neither here nor there.
>>521781764That only happened because 3D jump. I guarantee you, Forgotten Land's motif slapped onto a typical 2D Kirby would've sold FAR less.
>>521783205>posting that pic againI can feel that guy's blood pressure rising from here lol
>>521782774Nah, that's not it. The SM interview is probably the smoking gun for trannies, but they also like to cite the Metroid manual obscuring Samus's gender by calling her a man. You know, because it was supposed to be a secret surprise.
>>521783205Star Allies already felt like they were stretching as much as they could do with the formula established since RTDL. Glad the series got an actual 3D game after years of spin-offs testing the waters. I'm still hoping for a Blowout Blast port of some kind.
>>521783449Dedede... Dedede why...
>>521783712>spoilersI still think a Blowout Blast 2 that was themed around Adventure the way the original was themed around Dream Land could be a fun little side game
>Guaranteed (You)sNever change, /kdg/
>>521779195Only good post ITT. I read it all. Ignore the shitposter. She's just razzin' ya.
>>521779195>Earth is mentioned by name, it's stated Pop Star is very far from it, confirming they're in the same universeKirby movie where Kirby goes to earth and has a adventure with Brad Pit and his wife Tiffany Haddish and there's a subplot where King Dedede hooks up with their son's teacher Amy Schumer.
>>521779730I know you didn't actually use it, and I'm not trying to make an argument. I just don't like you personally so I'm gonna say it every time because I know it gets under your skin on some level.
I love you /kdg/. Never change.
>>521783902If it means seeing Heavy Mole in 3D then fuck yeah
>>521785178Actually i wonder how a Heavy Mole boss fight would work in 3d.I mean they technically could do infinte terrain generation, but just from a game design standpoint I cant see that being very fun for a full boss. They'd proably revamp it a lot that'd be neat
>>521783902legendary Mr Shine & Mr Bright comeback if that were the case
>>521785178As a kid I used to think Heavy Mole was a mechanized Kracko since he didn't appear in NIDL's boss endurance screen.
>>521785378Anon...he's right there in the center.
>>521783205So much cope that it isn't even funny
>>521785378MR SHINE WHERE DID YOU GO
>>521785439Holy shit...all this time I thought that was Mr. Shine.
>>521785764>Anom realizes he’s retarded
>>521786107>>Anomoh shit it's spreading
>>521786107You can barely see Heavy Mole's sharp bits and it looked like a crescent moon face down, alright?! Though it just occurred to me that's not at all Shine&Bright's style of beady eyes.
>>521784876>I don't like what I don't even knowOdd.
>>521786620I know enough to know that I don't like ya.
>>521780349You already lost, Plugg.
>>521786763You're free to think that I guess.
>>521786904You don’t deserve to speak his name, wench.
>>521787174Didn't need your permission, but thanks, I guess.
>>521778949Calling it now: Dedede's going to get a new hatted Dee who essentially acts identical to Revenge of the King Bandee and is heavily implied to be the Minion Waddle Dee he rescued in FL.
Hmm. Familiar.
I wish Ado didn't cause so much discord because she's a really underrated character who brings to the series something interesting to the series lore wise compared to the others.
>>521787393It's one faggot. Ignore him.
>>521787319I wouldn’t be opposed to this. I would also not be opposed to them quietly scrubbing Bandana from the franchise. He’s a failed experiment and I’m not gonna deny it:
>>521787514Yeah only one faggot who likes BADeleine.
>>521787393I don't think half these arguments would happen if her fans didn't treat her with so much overinflated importance for such a bit-part character.
>>521787174I saw the thumbnail for a second and swore it was Void giving a thumbs up for whatever reason.
>>521787393She does not bring anything interesting lore-wise, all you people talk about is her height, how she’s Dedede’s sister figure and how she needs to be in more games. What the FUCK does she bring to the table lore-wise that pedestals her over every other character???
>>521787801She's a direct descendant of the ancients. That's important.
Okay you can quit samefagging any time
>>521787778Didn't know he was chill like that
>>521787965Okay, I won’t even dignify that with a proper response. See you fags next thread.
>>521788231>no argumentwhy are all ado antis like this?
>>521787965Where is that explicitly mentioned? Was that implied from the start for her character? I don't think so.
>>521787965The ancients are not confirmed to be human. Please consult Wikirby's list of misconceptions before spreading misinformation like this.
>>521788291>antisLook at this fuckin' chucklenuts right here
I really tried to warn you motjerfuckers that it was the Adofags this entire time, but no you guys called me schizo and said “that’s too much of a stretch!!!” You IDIOTS were completely deceived! Literal Marx tier deception!
>>521787965God, I hope not. Personally speaking, I really hope we never see the "Ancients" aside from the vague hints the games give us. I hate "man behind the curtain" reveals.
>>521787778Saved.
>>521410639Removing Susie instantly.
>>521787778based void
>>521788294what you dont remember her ICONIC quote>hey guys its me Ado from Kirby, I'm a direct descendant of the ancientsshe says it all the time, it's her catchphrase in Star Allies.>>521788607Yeah same, though I'm sure the series wont, a bit part of Kirby lore is the mystery, the series tends to not overexplain everything and leaves it to the imagination (outside of miiverse posts lol), so I doubt the ancients will show up proper, and if they were people, wouldn't look like that now, nor would that be a major plot point.
>>521787965This. The "other world" she's said to be from is probably the "Long-Desired Land" that Leongar mentioned. Or maybe the land he mentioned was their original Earth, Shiver Star, and the Forgotten Land was a colony that some stranded travelers terraformed and founded. And maybe the "Somewhere Pretty and Peaceful" Shyness mentioned was somewhere else entirely.
>>521788981kek
>>521788981CURSE YOU KIRBY & THE STAR ALLIES
>>521788528Poor attempt at falseflagging. Marx would be disappointed in you.You can literally see that there was a perfectly calm and collected discussion surrounding Ado stemming entirely from someone being annoyed a the fingers in her render, and then multiple hours later some comes in and starts slinging shit with them.It was the Adofags fault in so much that it triggered a shitposter. And you're not helping.
>>521788294So you're the kind of fan this guy was talking about>>521768835
>>521789026So you're just making stuff up, got it.
The samefagging is horrifically obvious
>>521789190It's not so much that as it is that there's not even any real implication that that's the case, either. It's as much a stretch as that old headcanon of Meta Knight being Kirby's father.
>>521782024Shit, it really is just like the old days.
>>521787965She is, but it's not really all that important. What's really important is their friendship as individuals.
baking will make thread when ready
>>521789367Considering I don't have a clue which side you're talking about, I don't think it is
>>521789226If that's what you call thought and creative engagement, sure. If you hate those things I'd recommend you leave a place like this where people speak their minds and go read a wiki instead.
Oh hey, I hadn't even noticed!The shitposting started toward the end of a thread to artificially push it to the bump limit.AGAIN. Who would've thunk it?
>>521789657Saying something is explicitly [x] instead of saying that it *might* be [x] is how you get the sort of uninformed putz who thinks Kirby fights gods for cake on the regular and is 100% Dark Matter's little brother or some shit.
>>521789729oh no we have to make a NEW THREAD how will we manage???? It's gonna be like this for a bit, we got news, this isn't out of the ordinary I don't think.
>>521789838Well, I didn't do that. Reread my post.
>>521789863It's not about having to make a new thread, it's about the fact that it's happening at the same point in a thread's lifetime over and over again.Like clockwork.
>Don’t believe your own eyes anon this is totally normal This strategy won’t last.
>>521789929Well, you supplemented another anon's post that was doing it and continued to treat it as fact.
>>521789508Magolor would disagree. He would definitely hound Adeleine to take everyone on a trip to her world if he knew what she was.
>>521790017I mean again, we have news, gonna attract shitposters sadly, it sucks don't get me wrong but it's like, just kinda going through the motions i guess, unfortunately
God I hate you fucking people.
>>521790101I think what he said is likely enough to be true to treat it as such. The Ancients are strongly implied to be human, and Adeleine is a human stated to be a traveler from another world. The pieces fit together with no contradiction. It's not like "Kirby slays gods just for cake" which is something he's never actually done, not exactly anyway. When he killed Dark Nebula he did it to take responsibility for his mistake and prevent harm from coming to his land, I think.
Ado isn’t relevant.
>>521790396I disagree.
>>521790225We know, you said that already.
>>521790450How convincing.
>>521790549>>521790549>>521790549>>521790549>>521790549>>521790549
>>521790110An Adeleine vs Magolor plotline seems like quite a good concept for a spinoff title.
>>521790396>
>>521790396>I know I have no actual concrete proof but it’s true in my head and it makes me feel good because it makes my favorite character relevant so let’s all believe it’s true anyway Tumblrfag or lack of a Y chromosome? Call it.
>>521790708I think he's retarded because I have never seen a woman stick her neck out this far for Ado. In fact, I don't even think female Kirby fans even like Ado.
>>521790708Por que no los dos?
>>521790678Nope, it's a clarification, not moving the goalpost.>>521790708Ado isn't my favorite character, Meta Knight is, and you failed to provide a counterargument. Forgotten Land strongly implies humans are The Ancients. Adeleine is a human, therefore she would be a descendant of the Ancients. No contradiction. No mental gymnastics. That's probably why you can't produce an argument.
>>521790841Turns out it *is* a woman after all.
>>521791172They're outright confirmed to be humans actually thanks to Neichel.>>521791312So a woman is better at basic logic and reasoning than you dorks, lmao
>thread is dead>only thing left is people shitposting about Ado of all charactersI frequently like to picture Meta Knight as a completely mentally sexless being, and because of that his libido dead but I like to imagine Susie teaching him about sex and awakening it and causing him to be madly desperate for her touch.
>>521791172>I didn't treat it like it was fact!>...well, okay, I did, but it's close enough to being fact that it might as well be, right...?Goalposts moved.
Ado's cute feet stomping on the planet :3
Susiefags using Meta Knight as their sex deviant puppet is so cringe. We need a new meta game to fix this state asap.
>>521792427anon that would just make it worse, it would give them more meta knight content to thirst over
>>521792427>We need a new meta game to fix this state asap.>implying it won't bolster the metafags tenfold
>>521791790I believe it's true and have no reason to believe otherwise =/= it's an explicitly confirmed fact. Stop being a clown.
>>521792427anon not all metafags are susiefags but all susiefags are metafags
>>521792717You're just arguing semantics now because, ironically, you have no argument anymore.
>>521792717Plus the lore is left intentionally vague to tickle your own creativity, if you can't respect that you're a fool for treating art like reality.
i wish ado could shrink me to micro sizes and place me in her shoes for a week hhhhh
>>521793602This but the seat of her panties and she's got an upset tummy and is really gassy
>>521793081I'm not arguing semantics, I'm arguing clarity. Believing any interpretation of art and treating it as true within the context of a casual, speculative conversation isn't the same as treating an assertion as fact for the purpose of a conversation on facts. But no direct Word of God confirmation doesn't prove it wrong either, especially in that speculative context. Want to move the argument forward? Show some evidence ruling the belief out. Otherwise you seem to be opposed to clarity because you don't want to think clearly, you just to stay mad and argue in bad faith.

For a Meta Knight game, put Susie in the role of antagonist. Explore how she's been running the HWC since her escape at the end of Robobot.Meta Knight has a Halbert 2.0 and elite crew with him, traveling through space. They discover a friendly neighboring planet that's been taken over by the HWC. The pre-existing power structures have collapsed and the planet won't survive much longer under the HWC.Mix RTS elements into the action-platformer gameplay. The game design highlights Mega Knight as not just a warrior, but a leader as well. Make it a story where Meta Knight is a morally grey hero, who wants to save the people of this world, but also wants to rule them, mold them, and transform their world into his perfect kingdom he's always wanted. Susie is a morally grey villain who was trying to do the same thing, create a perfect world for herself, with little regard to the wishes of the inhabitants. Shine a spotlight on the traits they hold in common, have them compete over the same goal, and see how it makes them clash. That will also serve to highlight their differences, with multiple endings depending on what Meta Knight does.
