Kirby, not knowing this, finds the pieces and reunites them. After Nightmare invades the miraculous Fountain of Dreams, King Dedede splits up the Star Rod into seven pieces and gives them to his friends, preventing Nightmare from spreading bad dreams. Nightmare ( ナイトメア, Naitomea), also known as Cloaked Nightmare, is the final boss of Kirby's Adventure and its remake, Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land. This is either because of his defeat at his hands in 'Revenge of the King,' or just out of admiration for him. A rough translation of the song indicates that he is singing about getting stronger to be on par with Kirby, in terms of power and skill. It is implied that 'The Apple Juice Song', a special arrangement of the Apple Scramble theme from Kirby Battle Royale made for the 25th anniversary of the series, is sung by Bandana Waddle Dee in-universe. He returns in Kirby Fighters 2 as one of the game's starting playable characters, using his spear move set from Star Allies. In the series' spinoffs, Bandana Waddle Dee appears as a playable character in Kirby and the Rainbow Curse, and as a CPU-controlled ally in the single-player mode of Kirby Battle Royale (using a parasol instead of a spear). He assists Kirby in both Kirby: Triple Deluxe and Kirby: Planet Robobot by providing him with items, and again as a playable character in Kirby Star Allies and Kirby and the Forgotten Land.

In Kirby Super Star Ultra, he appears in the 'Revenge of the King' game mode as King Dedede's loyal right-hand man. He first appeared in Kirby Super Star as the first opponent in the 'Megaton Punch' minigame. He has developed from an insignificant joke character to one of Kirby's closest and recurring friends. series.īandana Waddle Dee ( バンダナワドルディ, Bandana Wadorudi), sometimes simply called Waddle Dee ( ワドルディ, Wadorudi), is a Waddle Dee who wears a blue bandana and is frequently seen wielding a spear. Meta Knight is voiced by Atsushi Kisaichi in Japan, Eric Stuart in the English dub of the anime, and Eric Newsome in the English version of the Super Smash Bros. He wears a navy blue cloak that can transform into a set of wings, and he usually wields a special sword called the Galaxia Sword. In certain games, defeating him will result in his mask falling off, revealing an appearance similar to Kirby, though with a blue body and yellow-white eyes, which appear yellow in Kirby: Planet Robobot and Kirby Star Allies. He wears a grey-silver mask, with only eye holes to see his two yellow glowing eyes. Meta Knight ( メタナイト, Meta Naito) is an antihero character referred to as Kirby's rival, who sometimes fights with him for varying reasons, though they often arrive at the same goal. This version of Dedede returns in Kirby: Triple Deluxe after Dedede is brainwashed by the villain Taranza and also appears as Dedede's Final Smash in Super Smash Bros. This character wears a distinctive combat mask and wields a giant mechanical hammer filled with multiple weapons. The 'Revenge of the King' game of Kirby Super Star Ultra introduces a harder version of King Dedede, known as Masked Dedede ( マスクド・デデデ, Masukudo Dedede). Dedede has many of the same abilities as Kirby himself does, such as being able to inhale objects and spit them back out with tremendous force, and the ability to suck in air and fly. Despite this, he is not truly evil and has helped Kirby several times to defeat a common enemy. Dedede causes many problems for the inhabitants of Dream Land through selfish mischief, though his villainous acts are sometimes under the corrupting influences of other, more dangerous evils. He is known for carrying a large wooden mallet, and is known to be egocentric. He is a large penguin-like bird who serves as the monarch of Dream Land. King Dedede ( デデデ大王（だいおう）, Dedede Daiō) is the antihero of the series.
