Kirby

I'd never liked Kirby on videogames(except of Kirby: The Crystal Shards, for N64), but I like the cartoon. The cartoon is dubbed by a famous company, 4 Kids(Made Pokemon, Ultimate Muscle, Sonic X and many others). In the cartoon Kirby is a Star Knight.His starship fell in Dreamland, a land that is controlled by the evil King Dedede and his loyal servant Escargoon. Dedede always buy monsters for trying to defeat Kirby but he never wins wins, because Kirby can swallow his opponent and copy it's abilities. Kirby: Right Back at Ya is a cool cartoon of Jetix(In Brazil, I know that Kirby appears in the Fox Box in USA).

I am not nor have I ever been a fan of anime. I never found anime appealing and I could not get myself to appreciate the designs of the characters in most anime. However, I have to say that Kirby: Right Back At Ya (English Dub) is one of the only few anime's that I enjoy.

First, the story of the show surprisingly has continuity and I found it fun to follow the adventures of Kirby and his friends. The story can be slow in some episodes but it's usually the same plot, where one of the antagonists, Kind Dedede, continues to buy monsters in order to get rid of Kirby, and it is up to Kirby to save the day. I should note that I have played many Nintendo games since I was a child, but I never got into any of the Kirby games. I am aware that the show is not canon to the games but it sure makes me want to play a Kirby game.

Next, the characters are very cute and enjoyable to watch. Each character, ranging from Kirby to Tiff/Tuff, and King Dedede have multiple characteristics that make them likable. No character is unlikable nor makes me annoyed, even for the villains. Additionally, while the show progresses, we are introduced to more characters, but it is easy to get to know them all and appreciate the flushing of each character.

Finally, the animation is cute and colorful, however, the animation can be very choppy at times. For example, the show uses both 2D and 3D animations. But the transitions are incredibly off putting, where one shot a character is in 2D, but in the next the character is in 3D. The 3D elements look nice for action scenes, but for general scenes without action, it's very noticeable and hard to watch.

Overall, it is a very cute show with nice action, charming characters, and an interesting story. Even if you have never played a Kirby game or if you're not a fan of gaming in general, it is still easy to enjoy the show as it does not tie into the games. Heck, I believe that watching the show will get viewers to want to play a Kirby game.

Based on the Nintendo video game this show takes place on a far away planet called Popstar. Popstar is constantly bombarded by monsters that are ordered by Popstar's ruler King Dedede (pronounced De-De-De).

The monsters are part of an evil corporation called Night Mare Enterprises headed by a figure called NME who is determined to enslave the universe. Popstar's only hope is a Star Warrior who goes by the name of Kirby.

Kirby does come to Popstar but at the wrong time. Kirby is a baby and does not have the fighting experience. To make matter worse Dedede is not found of Kirby and is determined to take out Kirby for good with NME's help. Followers of the Kirby games know that Dedede is the main villian.

However a girl named Tiff who is very strong willed does her best to protect Kirby. She is helped by her brother Tuff (most of the time), and by Meta Knight who is a Star Warrior himself and one of few warriors left after losing to Night Mare Enterprises. Together they help Kirby in perfecting his skills and to be the light of hope to defeat NME.

Kirby for the most part is played of laughs since this show is produced by Nintendo and 4Kids (who also produce Pokemon), but it still good fun. If your fan of the Kirby video game series you might enjoy this fun cartoon show.

Ever since I started playing the video games, I've gone completely obsessed with Kirby. Now every time a new game comes up I buy it. the shows are even better though. The only thing I don't like about "Kirby right back at ya" is that Kirby can't speak. I wish he were able to talk. If they were to make a totally new season I would want him to be able to talk. the characters are also cool I think Tiff is the most kindest one in the show. The episodes I have seen all amaze me. I was on the edge of my seat."Kirby right back at ya is my favorite TV show.I just wish the shows would come back on TV again. I missed a lot of episodes and I wish I could see all of them.

When I found out that Kirby one of Nintendo's video game characters was going to have his own show, I thought "This will probably be dumb". However, I saw the show recently, and I was actually impressed. This show is pretty excellent, and has great characters (like Kirby, and his nemesis King Dedede), and it's pretty colorful too art wise. So check it out, you might like it.
