Kirby's Return to Dream Land/Awesome

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • During the final battle, Magolor attempts to actually block Kirby's Ultra Sword. He fails and goes down in the usual final boss fashion, but damn.
  • The "Final Battle" cutscene. Magolor is throwing energy spheres at the crew as they ride dragons through space, and Meta Knight just bats them away with his sword like they're nothing, and flies in front of Kirby to protect him before getting shot down.
  • In the last leg of the last level, you're given an Ultra Sword in a room filled with minibosses. As if effortlessly destroying almost every miniboss in the game wasn't awesome enough, to complete the level you get to cut a volcano in half. I repeat: YOU GET TO CUT A VOLCANO IN HALF.
    • Cutting the volcano in half became a Crowning Moment of Funny for This Troper because it was the first time Kirby used the giant fish. Nothing is more glorious than seeing kirby cut a volcano in half with a giant tuna.
    • Ditto this one, for whom Kirby used the giant Paper Fan of Doom.
  • A minor example of nostalgia from the last level: at the very end of the stage, you can find a secret area containing stars by flying up above the level exit door and entering the background planetoid as a door - exactly the same secret used in Bubbly Clouds, from the original Kirby's Dream Land.
  • You also get to destroy a space craft while riding a dragon and destroy a giant mecha piloted by a smaller mecha. Really, the second half of the game is just filled with moments of awesome.
