TheMasterShowman - Hry
My favorite part of the Fecto fight was the inversion of the isekai stereotype. People crack jokes about how many isekai are started by someone getting hit with a truck. Kirby ends his otherworldly adventure by hitting *somebody else* with a truck.
It's poetic!
it doesn't end the fight with any ramdom truck, it end the fight with optimus Prime itself ! it is litterally the prime of boss finisher...
It's also fitting that the Mouthful Mode he uses to finish it is essentially just a bigger version of his very first one
Fecto gets isekai’d
Come on, Kirby! Let's send Fecto Elfilis to another world!
You know something that’s really scary? Kirby has dealt with eldritch nightmares as an *Infant.*
That why I love him
"Um ackshually the gameth never spethified he'th an infanth ☝️🤓"
- Some guy who doesn't know what fun is
Cosmic/Eldritch beings getting destroyed by a baby pink ball.
It's honestly more funny than scary sometimes.
@@CountShaman the anime doesn’t say, but it did mention he was awakened 200 years prematurely.
@@alvaroperez2349 Yeah, but the people who can't have fun are gonna skim over the fact that Sakurai is still involved with the worldbuilding of the anime, therefore making it official on the same level as the games.
'Kirby came from nothing and Kirby is nothing. Or is he everything?' - Brian David Gilbert
I still love that that guy was in Fionna and Cake
He only got an honourable mention, but what I love about Morpho Knight is the fact he reverses every classic Grim Reaper trope ever and is still terrifying. Instead of a large dark figure wrapped in a cloak surrounded by the cold wielding a dishevelled scythe, he's a tiny unsuspecting insect with bright colours, glamorous armour, a beautifully decorative sword and fire that burns like the sun.
On top of the fact that butterflies apparently represent death in some countries.
Fun fact about Fecto Elfilis that makes it extremely cooler: its fight theme (well, one of them) is titled "Two Planets Approach the Roche Limit."
The Roche limit is the minimum distance two planets/celestial bodies can be from each other before one starts to _tear the other apart_ by its gravitational field.
Kirby is secretly the coolest Nintendo franchise ever
And everyone knows that now thanks to Forgotten Land.
Another fun fact about Fecto Elfilis is that its giant meteor summoning attack is called something along the lines of "Fermi Paradox's answer". The Fermi Paradox is the question of "If extraterrestrial life exists, why hasn't it contacted us yet?
Kirby's answer? The angelic chinchilla alien ATE them all.
@@smashmaster521
Nintendo is a hell of a teacher
If another pun happens, I won't be surprised if he throws in:
"Shut up! I mean it! I will end you!"
Uh, Cat...Your tail?
@smashmaster521 "What about it? Oh, I see. I chopped it off. Well, that's just great because... son of a b(bleep)!"
@@BaxterAndLunala *Cut to "Hang in there Baby!* Transition Card
During Sora's reveal gameplay Sakurai had to fight Marx in Super Smash Bros Ultimate in Sora's campain mode. He said there, live on stream, that he had to sensour Marx the first time he appeared in the Kirby series because the initial design was too terrifying. And Marx was already terrifying and dark enough to fit the Kingdom Hearts boss criteria. I don't want to know what is the initial product.
W... What? Oh do I even want to know what Marx original design is?
No it was Sepiroth, not Sora, still the same company though
I am now morbidly curious about SSBU Marx's "Beta" design.
We'll probably never get to know, though.
having to fight Marx in Ultimate's story mode and witnessing his new compound eyeball bubbles made me physically sick
It really says something that several bosses that could have easily been argued to be in the top 5 couldn't even crack the honorable mentions.
I think it was officially confirmed by the developers in star allies that they intentionally make the kirby lore the way it is where the plot starts out simple and childish and as it goes along it becomes a bit more darker and serious I find that funny given no matter how deep the plot goes kirby himself remains simple and childlike it also makes us think "what god will this child end next?"
I'm more concerned about what kind of God Kirby will become.
One quote that I think is from Kirby Lore CZcamsr Meteorz is that the person who cares about Kirby Lore the least... is Kirby himself.
H's just livin' his best life with his friends.
Shocked the Master Crown didn't even get an honorable mention; its design, its relevance to Magolor's redemption, its surprising importance to the overarching lore foreshadowed within its amazing battle theme... That fight was pure SPECTACLE.
Everyone forgets how FUN Mistelheim is (I butchered the name I know) but god it was satisfying to just slash though that tree and the master crown
It should have been mentioned at least alongside Magolor.
I know right? And it was the final trial in a redemption arc, something that we rarely see! Magalor is directly confronting the very thing that consumed him and brought about what we thought was his death, and it's glorious!
And the fact it made the Spin-off Team Kirby Clash *CANON.*
The boss fights literally go:
"Imma fire my Lazar!"
It is produced in Japan. Giant lasers are manditory.
27:50 DeeDede face is screaming “oh Pop Star we done goofed!”
Kirby Bosses in a Nutshell
Tree with over 100 different flavors
Cloud with Eyeballs
Fat King
Masked Knight
Demonic Entity
Bleeding Eyebal
Traitorous Friend
Freaky Flower Queen
Crazy Giant Robot
Destroyer of World
Mutant Elf Goddess
Fire Butterfly
Pink Knight
Black Masked Knight
Pretty much
Don’t forget “man-made horrors beyond our comprehension”
Only a franchise like Kirby can make these kinds of descriptions vague and difficult for people to put names to.
"Mutant Elf Goddess" is probably the most inaccurate description of Elfilis I've ever seen. I love it.
Kracko is in every Kirby game imaginable, but he is only a subboss. Of course, Kracko EX is a beast.
"Came to BEE?" Seems like Ari's love of puns has infected Josh.
POYO!!!!!
So yeah nice to start Kirby month with some bosses. From the cute to the nightmare inducing this series has some very memorable fights that our adorable pink hero has to contend with.
Little misconception about Star Dream’s Heart. In reality the parts of Hartman’s Soul is exactly what’s preventing Star Dream from reaching its full potential, that’s what causes the “Fatal Error” I’m pretty sure. Star Dream needs to have Hartman’s Soul removed to achieve full power, that’s why it’s sucked Kirby up and why the heart itself did nothing at first. It tricks Kirby into destroying the parts of Star Dream that contain part’s of Hartmans Soul and each part destroyed erases a part of the soul from existence.
With the last piece destroyed the heart itself is free to unleash its full wrath.
While I personally prefer Sectonia for its lore, presentation, music (btw the song played is called Fatal Bloom’s at Midnight) Star Dream is way more devious, Hartman dosent even get a after life, he is litterally erased from existence.
And to think that all of this stemmed from a grieving father just wanting to see his daughter again.
It's ironic that absorbing Haltman's soul led to Star Dream reaching sentience, but it throws away that soul to be more efficient and reach eternal prosperity, reverting back into a mindless, broken machine. It ultimately causes its own downfall as much as Kirby, never seeing the value of life even when granted it.
It gets worse when you realize that Haltmann's repeated use of Star Dream eroded his memories to the point he couldn't recognize the daughter he'd sought to see again... when she was right in front of him acting as his secretary.
Yeah, from what the lore implies, it was literally using Haltmann's Soul as a shield. Considering its utter disregard for life, that's HORRIFIC. O.O
Also, I love how it's narratively incorporated in to the music piece, where the leitmotif only kicks in once the last of the pillars, and by extension the last shreds of Haltman's soul, are destroyed, almost as if it's saying "ACTIVATING SEQUENCE! READY! GO!" :O
@@bluestreaker9242
It’s weird Josh wouldn’t say that when he showed a picture on “Vs Star Dream Soul OS” “Haltmans Soul is yet to be purged”. If it was running on an energy source wouksnt it make sense that Star Dream would protect its energy reserve rather than purge it? Instead it offers Hartmans Soul on a silver platter.
But I’ll let this slide, Kirby lore can be surprisingly complex, it’s not Zelda or Kingdom Hearts levels of bad, but it has its moments.
@@Dialga2006 Heh, yeah. To be fair, a lot of things in Kirby can be open to interpretation, much like the lore of KH and Zelda, but some things are very blatant and not at all red herrings, and yet people will be like "No, there must be another reason, it's too obvious." Like, if it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it's probably a duck, just sayin'. Sometimes the obvious answer IS the right one. X3
The Quarter Guy puts it best with Fecto Forgo's BLAB form
"KIRBY MEETS RESIDENT EVIL"
I want to throw this out there. I know that in terms of gameplay, Star Allies is sometimes looked down upon with how the allies kind of do everything for you. That being said, if they ever decide to do something similar to Star Allies and let you call upon old allies from said games, I would LOVE to have Elfilin be such a returning cast member to play as. Just think about it; some of the most interesting Dream Friends who came back in that game weren't the friends of Kirby, but his former enemies. Magolor, Marx, Dark Meta Knight, Daroach, etc. We had to fight these guys and deal with their crazy attacks, and now WE get to use those crazy attacks. Basically, we have Elfilin come back, using the time since we last saw him to learn to harness and use the powers of his destructive half. In other words, we can use Vecto Elfilis as a playable character. Toned down a bit, probably, but still cool. Plus, would they have Elfilin full-on transform into Elfilis as he fights, or do we get a smaller, friendlier-looking Elfilis form? Only time will tell, but playing as bosses from Kirby is SO COOL!
Oh God...Dark Meta Knight and Magolor are already OP as shit. Don't give them ideas! XD
@@smashmaster521 lol that's the point. We talk about how rough the boss fight movesets are when we have to fight them, so it's cool to be able to use it against the system. So yeah, I WILL give them ideas. I want to play as the boss that I struggled against.
I actually thought about this as a hypothetical. I think Elfillin would probably stay the same but that would be kinda funny seeing him with Elfillis' powers. Imagine him with that giant spear. There is the size problem though. Kirby characters are small but there's probably a reason Ribbon was relegated to Adeleine's aerial support besides lack of moves.
You know.... I've been following your content for YEARS! And seing you , in a kirby boss video, say that Miracle Matter is more intereting as a boss than 0², AND not forgeting about dear Drawcia (and the scream
Void is my namesake for a reason. 0.0
I absolutely LOVED his fight… all 3 of them. And I still do.
The Astral Birth fight is particular is such an absolute spectacle of fear, awe, and sadness. The MUSIC, the five movement “The Star Conquering Traveler” suite, is the best the series has to offer.
Say what you will about Star Allies, but I believe Void’s final boss fight is the crowning achievement of the original 25 years of Kirby (…even if Magalor Soul from RtDL Deluxe’s True Arena is a much better, MUCH harder fight).
KIRBY!
Also, void is a being of pure negative energy, but when it is exposed to positive energy ( from the text in the pause menus) we can see it dream of some familiar things. This begs the question, if a positive void existed, would it be doing those things? Would it also be immensely powerful? Now then, I ask you this, who do we know who does all this already?
Kirby.
Kirby is a void born of love and positivity instead of tyrannical rage.
Kirby and void, are one and the same.
I wasn't sure if you already knew this, so I was just making sure,
great video by the way!
I belive that was a mistranslatiin. The reason Void looks like Kirby Is because he was being corrupted by Kirby's positive Energy during the fight. At least I remembers Someone saying that
@@francescominoguarino827 interesting theory chum, but void already looked like Kirby, even after we just first see it’s…. Orb form. So o don’t think Kirby “corrupted him”, but he did expose him to positive energy and because this made void think of Kirby things ( as it was getting more positive), it can be reasoned, that Kirby is a positive void.
Boss rush in forgotten land has some incredible bosses.
Meta knight in his first game.
Every dedede boss fight.
Honestly aside the ones that hide in the background they are all fun
I will say besides factor forgo forgotten land nails the bosses really the only boss line up I like more is return deluxe's
I love that Fecto is essentially Kirby's version of Jenova.
Fuck, I never realized that.
An especially cool thing about Drawcia is how she paved the way for later endgames, most notably with final bosses gaining a "Soul" form of some kind (Marx, Magolor, Sectonia, etc.).
Given how Shinya Kumazaki (the current Kirby director) has a thing for Lovecraftian horror (especially in some of his personal artwork, which includes Drawcia!), the writing was on the board.
Also, nearly everything about Void is (perhaps intentionally) left vague. Is Void another Kirby? Is Kirby a Dark Matter turned good like Gooey? Is every villain up to this point a spawn of Void? Who knows? Star Allies is probably the closest we'll get to a straight-up Lovecraft story in a Nintendo game.
We can't forget that it's Drawcia who started the trend of having a boss come back as its soul. I'm very sure that I looked this up before since Marx is my favorite Kirby villain, and I wanted to know who it was that started it all, since I also think I read up how Marx didn't originally have a soul form.
Why does the audio sound like the quality of your content from years and years ago?.....
I love it.
Mainly at the beginning tho.
Shoutout to Count Shaman, that intro is fire.
👌
1:07 That Nostalgia Critic line is perfect for Squashini. XD
20:57 I just love that Star Dream OS’ colors match up to Nova’s actual colors from Kirby Super Star, furthering the connection along with the Heart battle.
29:19 Wonder if anyone noticed that the orb in the background resembles Void Termina in the remake.
Dedede is definitely getting on here, question is which battle?
Edit: Welp, he didn't, but three of his fights are HM, so good enough for me :D
I love Triple D, the goo version of King Dedede, in Planet Robotet.
Not gonna lie, but I'm surprised that King Dedede nor Meta Knight didn't make it into the Top 10. (Mentioning Dedede in the Honorable Mentions doesn't count.) They've been Kirby's rivals pretty much since day one, with each of their boss battles test Kirby with his skills.
That being said however, I am glad that the final bosses of Planet Robobot, Forgotten Land, and Return to Dreamland made it to the Top 3.
If anything, I give a special shout out to the battle with Dedede in Forgotten Land. Like holy moly that fight actually shocked me! Both times!
I'm really excited to see shadow the hedgehog get killed by Optimus prime on this list.
(If you get the joke well done)
What joke?
What joke?
Fecto Elfilis joke.
it's honestly impressive how Kirby can go from super cute to eldritch horror, in the blink of an eye. i guess what they say is true; "the more light you shine on something, the greater it's shadow becomes."
Correction: Meta Knight didn't summon Galacta in Robobot. The computer did so as part of an "Admin Aptitude Test", after having run out of unique clones to use for that purpose.
Bizarrely enough, that "Admin Aptitude Test" was something added in localization. In the original Japanese version, Star Dream senses that Meta Knight wishes to fight strong warriors (similar to his wish in Super Star Ultra), and grants that wish by summoning the Dark Matter and Sectonia clones, and then finally Galacta Knight. Not sure why the localizers made that change.
@@C_Arson Maybe they felt it would be too much of a retread? What we got feels fresher than that.
@@ShadwSonic I....guess? It just feels a bit strange since in this new context, Star Dream summoned the warrior who was sealed away for how insanely overpowered he was just for an admin test. Star Dream must have some insanely high standards, lol. I find it hard to believe that Haltmann could even use Star Dream at all if the computer required this test of every new admin.
Youre not asking to much, youre just missreading
Void didnt become evil, was born from evil just like Kirby was born from good, whatever created the both is the same, born again and again depending on what emontions it finds, "ending" Void doesnt end its existence, it just make it be born anew, because Kirby was near, it felt the type of emotions that form Kirby
Angelic Chinchilla never thought that would be a thing
You know fecto goes hard when it’s own main theme references the Roche limit
Forgotten Land may be my favorite Kirby game, but Magolor will always be my favorite Kirby boss. Under My Control and C-R-O-W-N-E-D just go too hard, man.
Coolest thing about Magolor Soul in the True Arena of the remake is, in the second phase, he uses Super Ability versions of the two new abilities of Mecha and Sand. Really nice touch there, Nintendo.
It's crazy that it took me until Return to Dreamland Deluxe to actually see why people loved Magolor. The fight in the true arena was nuts and I can see why this tiny mage has his fans.
Speaking of the true arena, it actually has a very tragic element to it. Most people know that the Master Crown corrupted Magolor and all who wear it before as explained in the Magolor Epilouge. When you get phase 2, Magolor's eyes disappear and only the eye mouth remains which it saying that the crown has fully consumed Magolor. You can even Magolor cry out for help during phase 2. The cherry on top of all this is that it's a reference where there was originally going to be a bad ending if you didn't get all of the energy spheres.
I swear, the Kirby devs are on a different tier.
Kirby, he's cute, squishy, and a destroyer of the Eldritch
Nice touch with the "computer virus" section saying the program was from Haltmann.
I've heard World of Light described as "Kirby's Slightly Unusual Thursday (When Will They Learn)" and honestly, true.
Man, remember when people thought it was bullshit that Death Battle had Kirby defeat Majin Buu but then Kirby only got stronger from there?
Ah Magolor. Obligatory two nickles comment but something something blue and yellow "ally" ropes you into gathering artifacts of power only to betray you, change form, and smack you with a multistage boss fight that's the most memorable thing in the game while terrifying music with multiple leitmotifs plays, something something two nickles. There's a reason there's so much fan art depicting Magolor and Volo hanging out.
My honorable mentions:
Core Kabula (Kirby Planet Robobot)
Just when you thought it was over after beating C.O.G.S. again, this angry zeppelin shows up for revenge.
Dark Daroach: (Kirby Squeak Squad)
While it’s an amped up version of his first fight, it’s still a lot better than Dark Nebula.
Macho Dedede (Kirby Star Allies)
He was a wimp before Anchor Arms. Now he’s a jerk and everybody loves him.
Master Crown (Kirby’s Return To Dreamland Deluxe: Magalor Epilogue)
Magolor’s concludes his redemption arc by facing off against a demonic apple tree.
Master Hand And Crazy Hand (Kirby And The Amazing Mirror)
Because of course Hal Labs would include a Super Smash Bros boss in a Kirby game.
Meta Knight (Kirby And The Forgotten Land)
The Z Axis did wonders to Kirby’s favorite sword fighting partner. Not to mention that his boss theme in this game is so awesome. And that was the year he won a Grammy for Void’s sake.
Whispy Woods And Kracko (Various)
Two of the series most recognizable recurring bosses aside from King Dedede and Meta Knight.
Yes that was the year Meta Knight's music won a Grammy but it was for a reorchestration of one of his older themes
@@BJGvideosDetails details.
The "giant laser counter" was a nice touch for this. Kirby is very much inspired by Anime so you know there's gotta be some of those.
23:22 Josh: Fecto Elfilis, an angelic chinchilla regarded as the Ultimate Life Form
Shadow The Hedgehog: Imma bout to end this man's whole career...
I hope the next Kirby Countdown is the 10 best levels in the Kirby franchises.
You know after all the eldritch abominations Kirby's face people sometimes forgets that hes fought all those things and hes still a baby! Like star child equivalent of an infant! 😂
Just so you know, Sectonia didn’t transform into her wasp form. The mirror turned her into a parasite that possessed multiple hosts that she fed off of in an effort to achieve maximum beauty. This was confirmed by Sectonia Soul’s pause description as well as a Miiverse post by the creators.
Kirby final bosses don't just go hard: going hard would imply they weren't already firing on all cylinders and had to be cranked up to 11. Most of the best bosses in all of Kirby are final bosses for DAMN good reason. One honorable mention I'd have said was the Master Crown from Return to Dream Land Deluxe's Magolor Epilogue; to see the Master Crown as it truly is, and knowing just WHAT this thing DOES to its wearers, is genuinely one of the most terrifying things in all of Kirby: it appearing as part of Void's attack arsenal in Star Allies? THAT is NO ACCIDENT! That is BLATANT! The Master Crown was borne of the VOID ITSELF! Those who seek power, acquire that power, and become a slave to the chaos of all creation that portends destruction! O.O
Fun fact about Drawcia Soul and Chaos Elfilis, btw: they are the ONLY TWO SOUL BOSSES that are considered CANON by the games they appear in! It's funny you mention Fecto Elfilis' last ditch effort was to throw Pop Star at Kirby to kill him: as many people have pointed out, it did that because it wanted to kill Kirby in particular, and it sought to do so in the most personal way possible. Heck, it allowed itself to be absorbed by Morpho Knight in order to force Kirby to fight it, weaken it, so that Soul Forgo could absorb Morpho Knight's power to revive as Chaos Elfilis; yeah, that moment its eyes widened when the butterfly landed on it? That wasn't fear flashing before its eyes, that was pure unadulterated BRILLIANCE; Fecto Forgo is shown to be psychic, it 100% sensed Morpho Knight's power and WANTED that...just so it could END Kirby with the CHAOS of CREATION! I gush, but...I mean...I have my reasons, obviously. At least he came 2nd to the TRUE king of Kirby bosses. "How it all began...and how it will begin...again..." Yeah yeah, I know, different franchise, but hey...whaddayagonnado? ;)
17:11 wow a Dr. Octagonapus reference in 2024
Kind of surprised Dark Matter didn't get an honorable mention. I remember Kirby's Dream Land 2 being the first game where the stakes were a lot higher than just DeDeDe being a big jerk.
I perfectly understand your reasoning for your placement of Void Termina on the list, but goddammit, that fight still captures my heart and mind like no other. The Void fight in Soul Melter EX is something else man. Every modern Kirby final boss is spectacular and fun in their own right, but Void stands out among them in my mind for the sense of wonder and awe it gives me. The amount of vastly different forms and attacks it can use in its boss fight (combined with the lore around how it reincarnates differently depending on the amount of positive and negative energy gathered) really makes it feel like it could do and be ANYTHING, from a star-devouring titan to your cheerful next-door neighbor (who just so happens to have ridiculous power). That is amazing, and it has a lot of potential for future Kirby games as well (imagine a game where you think you're playing as Kirby for most of the game, but then it turns out you were a positive incarnation of Void the entire time. The fanbase would go NUTS).
Regardless, I'm happy that Magolor got the #1 spot on this list. Seeing his boss fight in CZcams videos is what sparked my interest in trying Kirby to begin with, so thanks Magolor, you conniving, trolling, yet somehow endearing bastard.
Awesome video! Great way to start Kirby Month!
Good start to Kirby month! I'm looking forward to the rest.
Fun fact, Elfilis' boss music mentions the Roche Limit, which is how close two celestial bodies, like planets, can get to each other without the one with greater gravity *tearing the other apart*.
Seeing Squashini on this list makes me feel validated cause he was my favorite boss in Epic Yarn
I'm just glad we got an Epic Yarn mention at all. That was my first entry into the series, and I know it wasn't loved for any number of reasons (Wii title, major aesthetic change, no health, no copy abilities...) but I'm still glad to see some parts of it recognized.
10:00 Kirby has fought so many eldritch horrors that the games are basically kid friendly Dark Souls at this point XD
Magolor Soul, 02 and Galacta Knight have to be on here!
Haven’t managed to be early to one of your lists in years, I’m so happy to be here!
17:11 A Lazor Collection joke in 2024...I'm not mad, Just surprised.
The adorable pink star warrior countdowns during my Birthday month
I'll consider this a month long birthday present, so.......... Thank you Josh
Nice of you to include Kirby Robobot on your list. That game is criminally underrated!
I'm glad that at least one boss from Kirby Star Allies made this list
What is a god to a slayer of gods?
Kirby is my favorite franchise (if it wasn't obvious), so I'm looking forward to this month.
Even Kratos would approve of Kirby.
@@shadowlinkbds He'd probably team up with Kirby. Zeus and Odin don't stand a chance!
KIRBY MONTH?!! LETS GOOOO! Kirby is my FAVORITE Nintendo series! Also, let’s just take a moment to appreciate the fact that it’s been normalized for Kirby to fight an eldritch horror once per game
29:16 Gotta say, I didn’t think removing the beady eyes would make it _that_ much more menacing.
22:38 A question I ask everytime I play Kirby. It's just routine to kill eldritch abominations at this point.
You throw a planet at me? I hit you with a TRUCK! Kirby is still one of my favorite franchises, and the bosses are definitely one of the reasons. Looking forward to more kirby chaos this month.
WHAT THE SPARK?! I never beat Canvas Curse, even though it's ond of my favorite Kirby games, so I never got to see that final boss fight. And just dang! That's some freaky crap!
I really love Galacta Knight's inclusion to the franchise because there's still so much mystery surrounding him. The fact that he's a warrior like Meta Knight except he has an angel aesthetic compared to Meta's demon aesthetic, he's pink exactly like Kirby, and he was sealed away because of his power just makes him an enigma worth discussion.
Side note, the Planet Robobot fight is my favorite just because the moment he gets released, he immediately slashes Star Dream in one hit like an uber badass.
I love the Kirby games, SSU is one of my favorite games ever. So seeing a month like this puts a smile on my face
I'm not complaining but it seems Fawful's Minion has some competition for ranking Magolor number 1 in Kirby Boss Countdowns
God bless you and your family joshscorcher
I’m pretty sure Drawcia soul was actually the very first soul boss in the series.
Thankyou for reminding me of the 4Kids intro. I had to instictively sing the whole thing before I could finish the video.
As a Kirby fan myself. I find these highly informative!
29:15-Chuggaconroy (and by extension me): "THERE'S ANOTHER PHASE?!"
Oh heck yes! Let's go! Kirby month is going to be awesome!
Vernias on the up and up. He'll be loving this video if he saw it. In fact, I'll bet he's watching it right now.
"Another 'You are your own worst enemy' allegory." He says as if underplaying that Void Termina's existence basically reveals that Kirby has been a God this whole time.
I honestly would've put Void higher. The atmosphere, the lore, and ESPECIALLY the music (*Cough* Green Greens) make it possibly my favorite boss in the entire franchise.
I do agree with Elfi's spot in second, though, if I had to choose... Mostly due to an inside joke concerning the semi-truck, though. XD
It wasn't underplaying, as it is just a joke. Hell that is the exact reason Void is as interesting as it is to begin with.
This is gonna be a fun month.
Kirby, Kirby, Kirby! That’s the name you should know!
MAGALOR IS NUMBER 1 YESSSSSS!!!! I'm crying tears of joy, Magalor is my favorite Kirby final boss and his redemption makes him Even better!
Fecto elfilis because in his Chaos soul is just has echo embedded in his very core....it makes me sad because they used him as tool or a thing to look at (i mean Fecto did try to kill the humans).
I just think all those years stuck in that container must have been traumatic and that should havd cause him to split....he had a bigger reason to destroy us in the end.
Damn Fecto Elfilis Lore is a tricky tragedy. It make me understand why he was willing to collide popstar with the forgotten world.
Sorry for the writing.
every time see Kirby use mech drill i have sorairo day playing in my head
One of the best things about Kirby games is the boss battles and boy, there were a lot of great ones. I can't deny the fact that Magolor is truly the best boss.
Shocked that Master Crown didn't make the list!
Whispy Woods but final boss!
All of these entries are epic not gonna lie. I haven’t played a Kirby game in decades. So I’m a little slow to the party with some of these new boss.
Miracle matter was the hardest and yeah, using Kirby’s elemental attacks and not being hurt without using the same element genius …
But the top three are beyond what I could possibly do .
Star allies definitely has one of the best boss osts in Nintendo's lineup
I know Josh is gonna let his kids play video games, but the question is...which Kirby are they gonna start with?
Huh. I was wondering why we didn’t get a Sonic month this year, despite it being the Year of Shadow, but this was such a pleasant surprise!
At first I was hesitant as Fawful’s Minion has made Kirby countdowns to death with even remaking his boss countdown but then I realized I get to hear Josh talk about Kirby to death and I got hooked! 👌🏻😁👍🏻
Just wow!
Kirby month? The same month as my birthday? I wouldnt have ask for anything more thank you for being a light in the dark room of this year. Personally I love ex Void for personal experience or dark aeon hero as that one has a special place in my heart for playing with meteorz to beat it
At this point Kirby is up there with Shang Tsung for murdering souls.
GOD IM SO HAPPY SECTONIA IS ON THIS LIST- THE PAIN AND INDENTS ON MY FINGERS REMEMBER HER ANNOYING FIGHT
17:10 - *"DOCTOR OCTA-MOTHERF÷÷÷ING-GONAPUS!"*
Kid Danger: *wearing his mighty pup movie outfit* out of the video games that I like/love, Kirby comes to my mind after Mario and Luigi. Kirby may be a pink ball but he is one of my favorite video game characters out of smash bros! After Pikachu. And the Transformers joke. Nice. You have my respect.
Didn't see that jump scare coming.
I was hoping that this list would be a very unique one... but aside from the inclusion of Drawcia, Queen Sectonia, and post-Ultra Galacta Knight... this is basically the same as the lists from Quarter Guy, Fawful's Minion, and most of the other Kirby boss lists.
Should've known.

So you got the Transformer reference too? Noice!!
