Line 14:
=== ''[[Kirby of the Stars]]'' contains examples of: ===
 
* [[Zero-Percent0% Approval Rating]]: Dedede of the Stars (or Dedede: Comin' At Ya! in the dub) explicitly manages an approval rating less than 1%.
* [[Accent Adaptation]]: Dedede's Foghorn Leghorn-like southern accent. Meta Knight is also a [[Badass Spaniard]] for some reason (many call him [[Fan Nickname|Señor Noodlearms]] because of it). Meta Knight's Spanish accent in the dub is possibly because of the vaguely Spanish-sounding theme that plays whenever he appears in the original Japanese anime. It might also be a [[Zorro]] reference.
* [[Adaptational Villainy]]: King Dedede, to some extent. While his original self in the video games is also a petty but [[Laughably Evil]] antagonist to Kirby, he has more [[Pet the Dog|nicer moments]] and more times when he genuinely tries to help Kirby fight a more serious enemy than Dedede in the anime does.
Line 57:
* [[Canon Foreigner]]: Tiff, Tuff, Escargoon, Customer Service, etc. The cappies are an interesting variant; they were minor enemies in the games, but here they lack their eponymous caps and fill the role of humans as townspeople.
* [[Canon Immigrant]]:
** Of all things: the spear-wielding Waddle Dees make appearances in ''Kirby Canvas Curse'', ''Kirby Super Star Ultra'' and now ''Kirby's Epic Yarn''. Bandana Dee even takes one up in his playable appearance in ''[[KirbysKirby's Return to Dream Land]].''
*** Bandana Dee's signature move in ''[[KirbysKirby's Return to Dream Land|Return to Dream Land]]'', twirling his spear like a helicopter blade to fly, originates from the episode where Dedede sells off his Waddle Dees in attempt to pay his debts back to Nightmare.
** If inanimate objects count, then the design for Dedede's castle. ''Squeak Squad'' even features the monster transporter.
** Anime Halberd also makes it to ''Squeak Squad''.
** Dedede's tendency to add -zoi to the end of his lines in the Japanese version of the anime is also used in the Japanese narration of ''[[Kirby's Epic Yarn|Kirbys Epic Yarn]]''. Kirby likewise says poyo during some events in ''[[Kirby's Epic Yarn|Kirbys Epic Yarn]]'' and ''[[KirbysKirby's Return to Dream Land]]'', and uses the word exclusively in ''[[Kirby Mass Attack]]''.
** Escargo(o)n, Customer Service, and Captain Waddle Doo have cameos in ''[[Kirby Mass Attack]]''.
** Water Kirby is an official copy ability in ''[[KirbysKirby's Return to Dream Land]]''.
** Galaxia, Meta Knight's sword, has its pronged appearance (originating from the anime) in ''Amazing Mirror'' {{spoiler|apparently}} and ''[[Super Smash Bros|Super Smash Bros Brawl]]'', and since then the Sword abilities have been able to shoot beams at full HP. As well, art for Meta Knight has had him carrying a pronged, golden sword, even if his sprite doesn't; often or not now, his sword is just gold. Additionally, the sword was first referred to as Galaxia in the anime and the name has been used since ''Brawl''.
* [[Casual Interstellar Travel]]: Via the Demon Beast/Monster transporter.
