Queen Sectonia taught me how bad I'm at Kirby.

I lost so many lives that the Bandana Dee started handing out golden tomatoes (which fully restore health) instead of the normal bottle it gives. >_>

Oh, Sectonia can be tricky, especially in the third phase when she does that teleportation attack.

But it's still one incredibly fun and epic battle. The second phase is when it gets really good. Also helps that Sectonia has the best boss theme of all the Kirby bosses.

Beetle snaps the game in half

Nah, that title goes to Archer Kirby.

• Has the same invincible shield that Stone and Leaf Kirby have.
• Dash attack with invincibility frames
• Arrows that hit for really good damage
• Takes only about 1-2 seconds for a fully charged arrow

Beetle Kirby is good, but Archer Kirby brings "OP ability" to a whole new level.

In Zeta Gundam there are -

Oh.

Never mind, I had the wrong Titans.

So...you carry on then.

Dirty & Beauty/ Sullied Grace is amazing but not the best Kirby boss theme

I don't know what it is but Archer always felt pretty awkward to use, Beetle also profits from throws, which tend to be very powerful if you collide with something. Besides, Suplex was my favourite ability to use for the Arena in KSSU. True Arena needed Stone though

 

[Knight Dude]

Yeah, Archer ended up being one of my favorite power-ups in recent Kirby games. Though I don't have Triple Deluxe, so I can't say much on Beetle other than it looking cool.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Nothing is more epic then an angel that punches the **** out of demons with his bare hands

Which Kirby boss theme do you think is the best?

Guess we seem to have different tastes in abilities then. I remember being hyped to try out Beetle in the days leading up to Triple Deluxe, but when I tried to for myself, it felt awkward and rather complicated for me to use. I was never big on the Suplex ability, so that's probably why I couldn't get used to Beetle Kirby no matter how hard I tried.

Archer Kirby was an ability that I didn't keenly follow leading to TD's release in the States, but when I decided to try it out in Arena mode, I got used to it very quickly. I loved how fast it took to charge a fully-powered arrow that could really pack a punch against bosses. Combined with that invincible shield, the ability made both the Arena and True Arena are much easier and more memorable experience. I fell in love with the ability after a while, and it became my go-to ability since.

Oh man, that new Attack on Titan episode made my heart pound so hard during the second half. Like, this is the first time in a while I felt like my heart was going to pop out of chest because of how epic it was!

I can't think which one is the best, though C-R-O-W-N-E-D, literally everything involved with Robobot's final boss, Drawcia's theme, Zero, Zero 2, and many many more are simply better imo. Only time I didn't like a boss theme in Kirby was Mass Attack. Necrodeus' theme's too lackluster, and Drawcia Soul's underwhelming when compared to what was before it

If any of you guys are Sonic fans and are also interested in what goes into the development of 3D models, you might like this. It runs down the main 3D models for Sonic over the years and analyses them and how they're constructed.

He also did a Mario one before. I play around with 3D models of my favourite characters a lot myself (*coughmostlyRosalinacough*) so this series is pretty cool and unique to me.

Next up are Nintendo IP's that debuted on the DS, which is challenge since most happen to be visual novels and casual simulators. Your choices are Professor Kawashima (Brain Age), Kyle Hyde (Hotel Dusk 315), Ashley Robbins from Trace Memory (tagging @Thatkidwiththeafro), and a Nintendog.

Only time I didn't like a boss theme in Kirby was Mass Attack. Necrodeus' theme's too lackluster, and Drawcia Soul's underwhelming when compared to what was before it

Most of those themes listed are ranked high in my personal favorite Kirby tracks list. CROWNED was pretty good, and so was the Robobot final boss theme (especially the first phase against Star Dream before it merges with Halmann's ship) and Drawcia's theme. Zero and Zero 2's theme are alright, though I like the Brawl remix of the latter a lot more.

CROWNED and the first phase of Robobot's final boss theme are definitely in my top 5, while Drawcia would be around the top 10. Some other Kirby tracks in my top 5 would be Moonlight Blossom and Under my Control, Haltmann's battle theme would be at 6th place, and then the generic boss theme from RtD, the Daroach theme from Squeak Squad, and the boss theme from Amazing Mirror would be the others in the remaining top 10.

My personal reason why I like Sullied Grace the most out of all the Kirby boss themes is the buildup that is present throughout the track, starting with a slow church organ and a few drums that fits the first phase pretty well, and then that epic metal guitar comes in after the minute. Combined with the previous instruments, it just blows me away. I get music chills every time I the remainder of that song, and it flows very well with the part where Sectonia forces you onto the crystal and starts zapping you with her scepters.

I thought nanaba was a dude

That's what I thought too when I first saw in her AoT, but I learned she was a girl when I looker her up on the Wiki back then. Looking at her now, her face does look rather feminine, and the same can be said about her voice, so now I can tell she's a woman.

There's another Survey Corps soldier that also looks like a dude but it is really a girl. You'll be seeing that character a few episodes from now.

Those who are constantly annoyed at their attempts of thinking is Nintendo promoting skinning, anti-vegetarian meals, milking, and **** fights.

Now that I think about it, Sullied Grace REALLY needs the visuals as the fight compliments the boss theme as Sectonia's almost ALWAYS starting Phase 2 when the guitars start coming up. It's really unique, only other boss theme in the franchise I can think of is Under My Control in which Maggy spins some energy orbs around before the fight and the music makes it sound like an ominous sound effect. Though P-R-O-G-R-A-M has a somber feel to it which is fitting of Robobot

Hugs make more sense when Meta Knight is involved, as the manuals said that Kirby was sharing food.
Meaning he vomits some out for the others

The difference is that Nintendogs happen to be realistic and act like real puppies too.

If they flipped out over cow milking, they would definitely be triggered by Bowser Flying Slamming a puppy.

I know it's officially that he's "sharing his food", but I refuse to accept it because it's less adorable and yeah, regurgitation implications.

Plus it ruins a joke my friend and my brother had when we played co-op in Kirby games.

Whenever one of us was low on health and the other got a health pick up, we'd yell "QUICK, GIMME A KISS".

I keep it as regurgitating as Kirby is one of the most surprisingly ****ed up franchises period. Zero having a bloody explosion before ripping it's own eye out in a last ditch effort to kill you, constantly shooting sharp shards into a bleeding eye, Robobot's tragic villain, Drawcia Soul's defeat looked pretty off, etc


Also @Mandela and @praline halp I'm watching Sailor Moon Crystal and I'm enjoying it

Sakurai has a lot of "fun" with his games in general, and in Kirby's case the people who picked up the job after him happen to be more than happy to keep that going and run with it.

Meteos is about preventing the mass extinction of the universe, Smash 4 slipped in Master Core, and Uprising. . .hah, Uprising. . .wooooooo, that one. Kinda surprised it only got an E10+.

And the next thing he's working on I'm gonna take a guess and say has gun combat from the one thing we know, so from the man who can make a puzzle game hardcore business there's a good chance the world is going to be served yet another round of crazy.

His stomach is another dimension and according to the anime, he HAS no teeth. In that episode he mimicked his friends brushing their teeth, but that's probably because he likes the minty flavour. Though the games had him show teeth when using Crash once iirc

No. Cause he's still a guy in the dream. Call him "Psycho-San" or something.
