Bandana Dee, the Spear Master! (v(- ' ' -)>↑ ~ Dee wait is killing us...

[the king of murder]

Welcome to the thread! Here's the initiation video!

That reminds me, I am watching the Kirby anime right now and a good 1/3 of it is still not subbed.

 

[Shadow Keebey]

Welcome to the thread! Here's the initiation video!

This wasn't the initiation video when I joined. In fact, there was no initiation vid. I only saw that because someone had it as a gif in their signature.

 

[MarioMeteor]

Bandana Dee is pretty neat.

Who's that?

Yeah, but notice how many main characters of the Dark Matter Trilogy appear outside of the trilogy besides cameos. King Dedede, MAYBE the Waddle Dee. The first 3 animal friends only appear in the Star Stackers and the anime, Dark Matter only appears in Squeak Squad and a subgame in Mass Attack, Dream Land 3 Animal Friends don't appear anywhere else in games. Same with 0(2) and Adeleine. And anyway, maybe Kirby was having a bad day and was ready to tuck in to the cake when it disappeared.

Maybe, but I still don't think it warrants Kirby pummeling or killing everything in his path without even questioning them first. Besides, he seemed pretty happy in the opening.

How often does Kirby say anything other than "Hiiii"? Anyways, I don't think Kirby was malicious per se, but maybe he was just really hungry.

You don't think attacking and/or killing several people (some of which are completely innocent) over shortcake is malicious? I've heard of not being you when you're hungry, but that's just ridic.

 

[D-Man9293]

I'm saying that I want them both back, but Ice Climbers can't come back because of the weak 3DS, and Wolf isn't back for unknown reasons.

Wolf is almost a guaranteed return.

 

[smileMasky]

I'm hoping for the list of ballot characters to come in reverse and What I mean is that save the most wanted for last and do like the ones who barely made it to come first.

Wouldn't that kill the suspense if all the shoo-ins were announced last and the interesting ones were first?

Nobody ever dies in a Kirby game, they're either "defeated" or they turn into an item and float away
That's why even if you ate Bandana Dee in KSSU, he was cheering for Masked Dedede in the last battle

Bandana Dee confirmed to be indeestructible.

 

[GhostlyLure]

I am gonna have to agree with @ MarioMeteor . He does questionable things but think this is because since Kirby is such a small child, (Over 200 yrs is questionable tho) he has no problem in killing, he is too young to know it is wrong and doesn't see any consequences.

The second explanation is that as a star warrior, or maybe it has to do with his puff race, they see no problem in violence or killing. But that is a bit dark.

And the other reason is that Kirby is a thrill seeker and may enjoy fighting and violence. He finds it exciting and exhilarating.
He gets an adrenaline kick out of it, out of fighting

 

[Jiggly]

heh heh...

@ Jiggly pranked @ GhostlyLure (Source: I got pranked by Jiggly before too.)

EDIT: I changed my signature using the card site but I changed it so the stock icon is for Fire Mario so the colors are what I use. It still links to the 'Vote Obama Bandana Dee' if you click it.

That doesn't make it any less wrong. Also, where's Marx and Drawcia if that's the case?

I just like to think that Kirby is a merciless homicidal maniac. He doesn't tell anybody, though.

1. How simple, yet interesting he is.
2. Probably his Return artwork pose.
3. When I first joined the Brigade. Good times...
4. Surprisingly, no. My most wanted is Rundas, and I would prefer Geno and possibly Toad over him.
5. Depends on how good it is. Probably relief, followed by unimaginable hype, then I'm going to laugh in the face of every Deetractor I see.
6. Aside from the three mentioned in #4 and Wolf, no.
7. It'd be mighty hard to tell considering he isn't even in the game yet.
8. It's hard to Deecide.

 

[Chalo5000]

Kirby "defeated" them

 

[MarioMeteor]

Kirby "defeated" them

1. You mean "Deefeated."
2. Then why aren't they around anymore? Could it be possibly because they're dead? Because a little pink marshmallow destroyed their soul?

Some guys in K. Rool and Wolf threads posted a group of questions related to K. Rool/Wolf in order to increase activity, so I decided to do the same on this thread:

This is a good thing to bring over. I'll give it a shot!

1. What is your favorite thing about Bandana Dee?

That he's Dedede's loyal right-hand man, and personality-wise is quite similar to Sailor Waddle Dee, who I also like.

2. What pose do you think Dee's render will have?

I would imagine that he would be striking a pose with his spear. Whether it's cool or clumsy, though, I couldn't guess!

3. Do you have any fond memories of this thread?

I haven't really been here all that long in the grand scheme of things, but nonetheless I do. Before I joined, I enjoyed reading the various bits of relevant discussion that filled in my knowledge-gaps from having missed a few Kirby games (fear not, I'm catching up on them now!), and since I joined I've particularly enjoyed talking about relevant series lore and trivia, particularly with @ MarioMeteor and @ Chalo5000 . Top stuff, guys!

4. Is Bandana Dee your most wanted character?

No, he's my second most-wanted. King K. Rool is first.

5. What would be your reaction to Dee's reveal?

I wouldn't be able to answer this unless or until the time comes!

6. Will you support other character after Dee is confirmed, or are you going to quit speculation?

There are several characters I would like to see, both before and after Bandana Waddle Dee. If King K. Rool doesn't show up first, then it will move to him and Mr. Stevenson from Gumshoe and some other "retro" picks whose games I enjoy and had hoped to see long before now.

7. Do you think Dee is going to be competitively viable?

I believe that this depends on the skill and ingenuity of the player.

8. What is your favorite Dee pun?

I don't have one. I kind of lean more toward Dedede puns!

I am gonna have to agree with @ MarioMeteor . He does questionable things but think this is because since Kirby is such a small child, (Over 200 yrs is questionable tho) he has no problem in killing, he is too young to know it is wrong and doesn't see any consequences.

The second explanation is that as a star warrior, or maybe it has to do with his puff race, they see no problem in violence or killing. But that is a bit dark.

All of that is from the non-canon anime, though, so it doesn't apply to the games.

Could it be possibly because they're dead? Because a little pink marshmallow destroyed their soul?

Kirby has a reputation for being a fearsome defender of entire planets for a reason, after all!

Marx was "deefeated" in space, you can't do a lot in there
Before he transformed into Marx Soul, he was just there floating
He's probably STILL floating XD
And Drawcia...

She came back to her painting, and exploded

 

[MarioMeteor]

Oh, you're too kind. I do enjoy talking to you as well.

Yes, yes he does. Even if it means annihilating the souls of jesters and paint demons.

Marx was "deefeated" in space, you can't do a lot in there

What was that very last word?

 

[Jiggly]

Another Deemension stage for sma5h?

 

[Hypernovaguy64]

Another Deemension stage for sma5h?

Oh snap!

 

[GhostlyLure]

1. He is the first character of a "useless" race to rise up and become a major character.

2. Something like this quick sketch I made

Took inspiration and watermarked it.

3. Huh....I guess when I came here and found out that there was so many supporters.

4. By far other characters I'd actively support are: Kamek, Peteey Pirahna, & Dark Matter.

5. I will be doing reaction videos to each NIntendo Direct...if they are good they will go up...you'll have to see ;3

6. You know...by the time Dee is confirmed the ballot will be over and so will speculation so...nah

7. Only time will tell

8. There are so many deelicious dee puns or should I say absolutely deelectable dee puns that I can't even fathom which deelectable pun is deeserving...I seriously don't have one they are all so punny.

1.the fact that he is a notable and strong member of a weak species.
2. Idk.
3.remember when we talked about high school I only joined smash boards recently and I don't post much so nothing too special.
4.yes.
5.hype.
6.I'll definitely continue. I love speculation.
7. We won't know until we see his (if he makes it) move set.
8. Too many to deeclare one as my favorite

 

[Jiggly]

Who is your guys' least fav kirby character? Big character, not a species.

I hate Pyribbit the most, battle against him was so frustrating sometimes.

 

[Chandeelure]

Bandana Dee.

8. What is your favorite Dee pun?

1. His spear power is so badass, and he is cute.
2. I think he will be trying to stand tall, with his spear standing straight up.
3. Favorite memory is when we got the Famistsu leak for Kirby in smash, and it showed BDee in the corner in a RtDL pic, and we all got super hyped up.
4. Hell yes
5. I would cry and shoot four letter words all over the place.
6. Ummmmmmmmmmmm, I will probably support a character, but not as actively as the Dee. Most of that effort will prob go into developing BDee's playstyle in smash.
7. If he can throw spears in the air similar to Triple Deluxe
8. All Dee puns are fabulous and horrible.

 

[Crimson23]

Wolf is almost a guaranteed return.

Wolf was planned, but was low priority and wasn't finished. I'm pretty sure that's how it went.

 

[Jiggly]

Bandana Dee.

This is why we need a dislike button...

 

[Sir Gengar de Èctoplasma]

This is why we need a dislike button...

He was most likely sarcastic...

EDIT: and I'm not sure would the deeslike button be a good idea...

1. He's so cute and it's nice seeing a Waddle Dee that can fight and contribute.
2. I think it could be him running towards the player holding his spear, or him sitting down holding his spear.
3. Yes, several in fact. I couldn't say them all if I tried.
4. Yes, the only character I want.
5. I'd probably scream and cry with joy!
6. I won't need to support or speculate, I'll be grateful as is, however I will offer to help others with their characters.
7. With his long reach, it's very possible.
8. DeeLC!

5.A good smile.
6.Yes, i have lot of characters left.
7.Not sure.
8.YOU THOUGHT THAT IT WAS MAGOLOR BUT IT WAS ME, DEEO.

Wolf is almost a guaranteed return.

Then again just because Wolf is a popular character and is going to be in a new game doesn't mean he is guaranteed..remember Kirby and the Rainbow Curse? It would make sense for a character to get realeased along a game they had a major role...but..nup. Once again we must really focus that the Smash Ballot is not relying on popularity but it's rather a suggestion box (which was clearly pointed out in the direct)

I think it's really risky to say a character is guaranteed because you keep raising you expectations for them to be revealed and if that character doesn't get released your heart gets dropped...take it as your heart is constantly rising in the elevator to a 100 floor high building then BAM DLC doesn't happen...power goes out..Elevator FALLS all the way down...*crash*


point is don't expect anything.

EDIT: I BUTCHERED the spelling of released...I'm just gonna leave it there.
