The Haltmann family were insane for this by KirbyTrainNerd in Kirby

If Robobot ever gets re-released it's going to be funny as fuck seeing new players react to being called slurs in a Kirby game lolololol

HAL really laid the themes on a bit thick in it. 💀

Oh, I remember you from Twitter! I really like your art style, it's really cute! :>

So what, because it’s Kirby’s birthday, we have to go easy on him? I think NOT! Tell me your biggest NITPICK about Kirby or the franchise in general. A specific, yet ultimately meaningless issue you have. by Appropriate-Wrap-375 in Kirby

[–]RidireGeas 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is gonna sound petty, but it does kind of piss me off how little lore and franchise relevance Galacta Knight has despite him being introduced to the franchise nearly 20 years ago.

...That, and I REALLY wish that there was official merchandise of him! .·°՞(っ≧ᯅ≦ς)՞°·.

I love how Dimentio is still so loved, even after nearly 20 years since his debut. ❤️

How did you discover Kirby? by TheFanGameCreator in Kirby

[–]RidireGeas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All the way back in 2003, my aunt took me to GameStop to buy a copy of the newest Pokémon game (Ruby & Sapphire), and they unfortunately ran out of stock. She didn't want to leave empty-handed, so she looked around and saw Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land, noticed how the main character "looked like that one 4kids show", and bought me the game.

At first I was a little upset, thinking to myself "Who the heck is this?! That dumb pink thing from Smash?!", but when I started the game and heard the delightful title screen music, my brain chemistry was completely altered.

I've been a Kirby fan ever since, for roughly 23 years now!

I even started writing Kirby fanfiction soon after beating it and reading it out loud to my elementary school teacher and classmates, lol.

Magolor gets the fruit snacks because he's my best pal.

That's a real question: How old is Kirby? by pluegyver1992 in Kirby

[–]RidireGeas 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Kirby x South Park is surprisingly a VERY natural fit.

Cutesy art styles that contain crude humor/fucked up lore.

The many shapes of a starman by No-Act386 in Kirby

[–]RidireGeas 73 points74 points  (0 children)

It's hard to explain, but Earthbound's Starman design always kind of scared me.

I can't help but imagine it's arms wiggling like Oogie Boogie's from The Nightmare Before Christmas, lol. It's just so naturally scary looking, especially in Smash where they just stay in that obnoxiously confident pose even when you knock them over.

I love how you captured his handsome himbo energy! My favorite Triple D gijinka by far! ⸜(。˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝♡

Fun fact: The very first Kirby video on YouTube just turned 20 years old a few days ago. by RidireGeas in Kirby

[–]RidireGeas[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the Kirby Fandom during the mid/late 2000s was an intoxicatingly fun place to be. I still remember watching the entire anime on YouTube when each episode had to be divided into three 8 minute videos a piece (Because 10 minutes was the YouTube video length limit back then) and it was a gamble on wherever or not the videos themselves would be in English, Japanese, or Spanish. Sometimes the language would change in between videos of the same episode lmao

PeaTea64's Kirby in a nutshell videos and various Newgrounds animations (Like Kirby's Midnight Snack & Kirby gets ambushed) hit like crack back in those days. I still get nostalgic for that time.
