As I said before, the kirby fans love Zero and his Dark matters because they are edgy and different from everything you'll see in a kirby game :ohwell:
Also, this bothers me more than it should but i ABSOLUTELY hate when someone writes wrong a character's name :evil:
So...
Magalor, eh? :evil:
IT'S REALLY THAT DIFFICULT?!?!?

I actually would like a boss that is some kind of steam-punk machine :awesome:
They still need to make a machine-themed boss :drohyou:
And no, Magolor doesn't count

Metal General was a robot. I do think it would be cool to have a robot as the final boss, and when you beat him, he should just be like "this isn't even my final form!", break out of the armor, and battle you once more. (Minus the meme though).

Sorry for double post, but I have looked it up, and there is no Kirby music.
Also, only music from 3D World is used:

0:00 - Super Mario 3D World - "Sprixie House"
0:21 - Super Mario 3D World - "Bullet Bill Express" (Start at 1:04)
0:41 - Super Mario 3D World - "Bullet Bill Express"
THEN THIS AMAZING SONG WHILE REGGIE PLAYS VARIOUS GAMES
2:20 - Super Mario 3D World - "World Star"
2:41 - Super Mario 3D World - "Green Stars Collected!"
2:43 - Super Mario 3D World - "Double Cherry Pass"
AGAIN THIS AMAZING SONG WHILE THE INFORMATION ARE SHOWN

Unfortunately, no Kirby music, yet I really love 3D World's soundtrack, so I'm okay with this. :)

Am I the only one that doesn't hate yin-yarn? I mean his final boss battle was disappointing but I really like his design and every cutscene we get to see what he is doing and what his personality is like(little I know but still it pretty rare we get to see what the kirby villain are up too) and he is more of a component villain then dark nebula and dark crafter and if they ever do a Kirby epic yarn 2(with difficulty of course) I would love them to bring back yin-yarn again.

Just like Prince Fluff, I don't think that Yin-Yarn was even supossed to be a Kirby boss :drshrug:

So he the wart of the kirby series?

Yes.
Because Doki Doki Panic was RELEASED as a Non-Mario game in Japan and was later re-skinned into "Super Mario USA,"

Similarly, Kirby's Epic Yarn wasn't meant to be a Kirby game at all until it was a fair amount through development, when it was decided that making it a Kirby game was a semi-natural fit and would help it sell better.

Prince Fluff was the sole protagonist, and why the "Kirby" material is just a few Waddle Dees, and the added boss fights of Meta Knight and King Dedede.

I have a question that has been on my mind lately...

Why do the Kirby developers use blood to express certain bosses?

I mean, what are they trying to infer to here?

Here's some evidence of all four bosses that have this concept:

MAJOR SPOILERS!
Hope this isn't too unpleasant!

Dark Meta Knight:

http://kirby.wikia.com/wiki/Dark_Meta_Knight

Shadow DeDeDe:

(This one's harder to spot out, but it says so on: http://kirby.wikia.com/wiki/Shadow_Dedede)

02:

http://kirby.wikia.com/wiki/02

Also:



And then the infamous:

0

http://kirby.wikia.com/wiki/0

(This was still rated E for everyone, and even though later rated E10+ for Kirby's Dream Collection... I don't think this is too graphic. :)

Sorry for the somewhat gruesome topic... But I just wanted to hear what you guys might think they're getting at here?

Shadow Dedede isn't bleeding :drwtf:
The wiki can be wrong sometimes, you know?
About the other ones, just like @ Chandeelure Chandeelure said, it could be just red evil energy or something like that :p
I mean Zero doesn't have an actual physical body, he's just a bunch of Dark energy (the same for Zero Two)
You can't bleed if you don't have a body after all :drflip:
And Dark Meta Knight is just a reflection, kinda like a clone of glass (a really hard glass)
That red fluid is probably to make the battle more intense and make him look scarier

tl; dr: BECAUSE EDGINESS!!!
see? i wrote it in red because it looks more edgy!

I feel the blood expresses the terrible things this person has done or how much they have suffered to get to where they are..

*Insert theory of how Zero and Dark MK are the real victims here" :glare:
They are just evil energy, I don't think that Dark Matter even thinks
He probably just wants to cover everything in Darkness because that's what he is, darkness!!!

I feel that if they were going for "evil energy" (can't say this without thinking of Mega Man 8) , red wasn't a good color to go with. Maybe black or dark purple, but red just looks like blood. I'm pretty sure they had to have noticed it when they were developing the games, so if they weren't going for blood, a better color to represent "evil energy" should have been chosen. As it is now though, it looks like blood.

As for why they use it, I believe it's for contrast. A game as cute and colorful as Kirby wouldn't be the kind of game you'd expect to see blood in. Due to this, it makes these bosses come off as more intimidating and scary then they would have otherwise. They're meant to be the darkness (nightmares) amongst the light (dreams). It's really just to make the bosses stick out as evil and whatnot.

I think it's just an aesthic choice on the part of the designers. So these bosses juxtapose with the rest of the game. There's little dialogue in the game and story is minimal because a lot of the plot and character elaboration is in the visual details of the game. Though we don't know the entirety of their intentions, these bosses are given the visual descriptors of being evil and dangerous. We know they are a threat and stand visually (and this way symbolically) as the antithesis of DREAMLAND. A land where it's inhabitant are able to live peacefully, lazily, and in hedonistic bliss. The opposite that opposes that are these enemies and with that we have our intentions explained. There is no peace without the reality of unrest beyond the dreaming.

Epic Yarn was my first kirby game so I thought yin-yarn was great.

Speaking of Ridley, I love how Sakurai won't even consider him because he thinks that Ridley's size is the entirety of his character, yet he puts Ridley in as a boss who fights for his enemies, constantly changing sides and falling on his back, all because he gets smacked around once or twice. Yeah, real accurate character portrayal, Masahiro Hypocrite.:evil:
(I also don't play on that stage because Ridley is so intrusive and annoying that the whole match is spent slapping him, despite liking Ridley himself)

Anyway back to Bandana Dee:
I can't be the only one who wants Bandana Dee to talk, right? With a voice somewhat along the lines of the Japanese Waddle Doo captain from Kirby Right Back at Ya! Also, anybody who doesn't listen to this frequently has no self respect:

What BD really needs is his duck voice. :4dedede:

Yin-Yarn was underwelming. Reggie played Virtual Boy. And if the Kirby has another anime, Bandana Dee needs an accent.
