I love how in SSBB, Dedede never really trusted the other baddies and made up a contingency plan to reanimate the statued brawlers if things went south. King Dedede might not be the nicest character, but he isn’t really a villain.

[dweibox]

I love how Dedede was just like “i will dededefend” in Kirby and the forgotten land

[SteampunkTomato]

9:41 I absolutely love how Kirby sounds like he says “King” like he is trying to say dedede’s name

[amogussussy.]

I like how dedede and meta knight have been a huge part of the Kirby series for a very long time and are vital to the series, and Bandana Dee is just there, and is just as important

[pikaqte]

The fact that Kirby in the forgotten land is like "WAIT NO DEDEDE" breaks my little heart.

And also that little hug in smash

[MarioBrother]

I swear, Wario was such a comedic character in Subspace Emissary while also being a villain. It's wholesome to see King Dedede tackle hug Kirby at first sight, the penguin was so overjoyed to see the pink puffball again.

[El_Omar]

- Elfilin tells us that Meta Knight protects Waddle Dee Town while Kirby is out.

- At the start of Amazing Mirror, it's told that Meta Knight flew to the Mirror World to protect it.

- The entirety of Kirby's Return to Dream Land.

- Dededetour and Meta Knightmare Returns.

- Heroes in Another Dimension. (And Star Allies in general if you bring them along)

- Ending of Robobot you can see the shadow of Meta Knight flying away, implying he safely returned Kirby to Popstar.

[prescibee]

The way he gently picks up waddle dee ;-; that’s a true king

[MrRuePine]

Dedede is badass in Triple Deluxe and Forgotten Land. In Triple Deluxe, he saves Kirby from getting squeezed to death by Sectonia's vines by -clobbering- smashing him out of the vines, then throws Kirby at the Miracle Seed Taranza throws at him. In Forgotten Land, right before the Forgo Dedede fight, he's even seen trying to fight the evil force controlling him, showing that he's had enough of being easily possessed all the time. After the fight, when one Waddle trips, Dedede saves him from the Beast Pack by throwing in him the elevator (even though he had literally enough time to just grab him and rush to the elevator), then does a last stand against them.

[Eduardo-cnnc]

10:16 I love how Meta Knight helps by lending his halberd... only for it to break in a dramatic scene. I mean, look at him, you can even see the face of "don't worry, by the 8th time the blow won't affect you"

[churlie]

Let's face it, Subspace would've been hell had it not been for the Kirby Krew

[Rediscool]

These two will never be villains to me. I’ll always see them as misunderstood heroes.

[pinkbluesapphire]

7:54 this will never stop being adorable

[psykomancer]

Glad you included Meta Knight tossing Kirby the Invincibility candy, it's a small moment that says a lot. Shows that he (and Dedede as well) were fully fleshed from the very beginning.

Brawl
Dedede revived: *immediately starts saving everyone*
Ganon revived: *sets aside timeless fight for the triforce to stop the bigger threat*
Bowser revived: *attack everything in sight*
Bowser revived again: *attack everything in sight*

[reapertalon]

7:07, I love how DeDeDe just flicks his Bowser's nose like "shut up you pathetic wannabe"

[Shadowzero]

To me Forgotten Land is best. Not only for the cinematic setup, but one also thinks DeDeDe might not survive because of the full atmosphere of the game (granted its brief at best when you remember literally everything Kirby has put this man through)

[mr.greenface]

I love how DDD just led Kirby away like a parent holding their kids hand

[Mike]

7:05 Say what you will, Dedede was just gangsta here.
