Kirby: Star Allies - Datamine Findings v2 [SPOILERS]

This information is coming from the recently released Star Allies demo’ filesystem. The demo included all the code files, text files and some other things, which pretty much ends up revealing everything that there is to know. DO NOT CLICK “READ MORE” UNLESS YOU WANT TO GET EVERYTHING SPOILED.



Copy Abilities and Helpers

Just like Battle Royale, we’re going to kick things off right away with all of the abilities in the final version of the game. Helper information is grouped with the respective abilities.

Artist

Set out on a voyage of training with a colorful

paintbrush on your side! Materialize yummies

to share with your friends. It’s like magic!

Art has the power to save the world!



A Colorful ㊤ (???), Vividria

“Watch me, sisters! I’ll do my best!”

She swears on her ㊤ to do her best, so she

doesn’t lose to her sisters, not in battle and

not in artistry! She sets off to prove herself…

and hopefully get into a good art school!

[Note: Artist can paint signs in the game to recieve items. Sculpture has Dreamstalk, Kabu, Susie and Pot. Pot breaks immediately. Susie’s statue is internally referred to as Goddess, which shall now be considered canon by all Kirby fans.]

Beam

This crackling attack releases a ton of

energy. Shoot a Cycle Beam or fire a

Beam Blast from midair! And if you

need to electrify your friends’

weapons in a flash, use the rapid-fire Wave Beam!



Beam Land, Waddle Doo

“I’ll bet it all on this beam!”

It was the first Copy Ability that anyone ever

got, and the origin of all abilities that came

later! So much potential from a beam! And

now, he wants to see why the beam…bends!

Now Kirby must set out on a grand adventure

with a new group of friends.



Green Gardens

Donut Dome

World of Miracles, Planet Popstar

Chase the dark hearts across the world of miracles!

Hold up to wield mighty Friend Abilities as Kirby

and pals continue their journey of companionship

across the vast seas and rolling hills.



Friendly Field

Reef Resort

Echo’s Edge

Nature’s Navel

Sacred Square

Inside Islands

Duplex Dream

[Note: Inside Islands and Duplex Dream are EX levels.]

Fortress of Shadows, Jambastion

Even the stoic Meta Knight has fallen prey to the

enemy’s evil influence, and now their foreboding

fortress has suddenly appeared. Why have they

come to this land? WHY?! Undeterred, Kirby and

his friends charge forward with gusto.

(and tasty naptimes) of their beloved home!

Now! Become a shining star and FLY!

[Note: This world is a reference to Milky Way Wishes from Super Star. However, the planets are still linear levels, so it’s just a normal world. The “Moon” levels aren’t full levels, they’re all around 3 rooms. Extra Planet δ and the Ability Room can only be accessed after beating the story. You can move the camera on this world map to see more of the galaxies.]

Kirby Star Allies

This “Dark Lord” that Hyness likes to talk about is a

being with no sense of right or wrong. He was born

only to destroy…and is known as Void Termina,

Destroyer of Worlds. Hmm…that sounds

pretty hardcore, so no pulling your punches!

Kirby’s biggest battle begins NOW!!

[Note: This world is the same as Another Dimension, Eternal Dreamland and Mind in the Program. It has four rooms, one for each of the final boss phases.]

Dream Palace

The Dream Palace is essentially a special helper roulette. You grab the Dream Rod, a roulette starts, get a Dream Friend. The Dream Palace is where King Dedede, Meta Knight and Bandana Waddle Dee are obtained in story mode. Bandana Waddle Dee is unlocked from the get-go while King Dedede and Meta Knight are unlocked after their respective boss battles. The Dream Palace can be used once, afterwards being refreshed by completing a level.

Big Buttons

The Big Buttons from Kirby’s Adventure and Kirby Super Star are returning! Find them hidden in levels to unlock EX levels and the Dream Palace for each world. More information on the EX levels can be found in each world’s note.

[Note: These are the level themes for the areas featured in the story mode. The level themes in Starlight Heroes are remixed versions of Planet Popstar’s environments.]



For those who are interested in a total count…

Kirby: Triple Deluxe has 42 levels and 302 rooms.

Kirby: Planet Robobot has 42 levels and 276 rooms.

Kirby: Star Allies has 40 levels and 253 rooms.

[Note: This is including regular, extra and boss stages for all three games. Even when going through all disengaging factors (boss level differences, minor moons, etc.), the total amount of story content in Star Allies is less than the other two.]



The Arena

The Arena returns, as expected, but it has been altered heavily compared to the other games. The biggest change is that it’s no longer actually called The Arena, the mode name is now The Ultimate Choice. The True Arena is no longer a thing; The Ultimate Choice has difficulty modes.

Sweet Breeze

Mild Stroll

Zesty Expedition

Spicy Adventure

Sizzling Threat

Fiery Showdown

Infernal Crisis

Soul Melter

[Note: The difficulty modes are flavour themed in Japanese, but were likely omitted due to text length:



Sweet Spring Breeze Flavour

Mild Stroll Flavour

Medium-Hot Expedition Flavour

Spicy Adventure Flavour

Extremely Spicy Ordeal Flavour

Demonically Spicy Decisive Battle Flavour

Ultimate Spicy Crisis Flavour

Soul Ejecting Spiciness]



The mode is now score-based rather than time-based. Points can be obtained by defeating bosses with higher difficulty levels scoring more points. Time is still a factor, being used as a bonus for extra points upon completion. The player can now choose to continue fighting after dying, the game has code that lowers the point total upon defeat.



Fiery Showdown, Infernal Crisis and Soul Melter are unlockable difficulties, likely obtained after beating one of the earlier difficulties. It can be assumed that this is where the EX bosses now. Soul Melter will likely be harder than the traditional True Arena, given that there’s three difficulties that use EX bosses.



It’s unknown what exactly the difficulty levels will change. From examining the code, it seems that health items will become more limited. Bosses also seem to have strength parameters (ie: attack multipliers) similar to Team Kirby Clash Deluxe, so the punishment for taking damage may be higher. This may also adjust various things like the wait frames in-between attacks, guard damage, HP and more.



There is a message for completing The Ultimate Choice with all characters. This could possibly be used for 100%, meaning you’d need to win with every character to finish. It may simply be like Helper to Hero, however.

Extra Mode and Subgames

The extra mode is called Guest Star ???? Star Allies Go!, and yes, that’s the actual name. It’s a time attack mode similar to Dededetour and Meta Knightmare involving the Helpers. The helper that you choose to play as at the start is used throughout the game. After it’s been completed Dream Friends like Meta Knight and Dedede can be used.

Aside from following the standard format of the other time attack modes, Star Allies Go! also includes a new mechanic called Power-Up Hearts. Scattered throughout the lands are Power-Up Hearts, which are items you can collect to raise your attack, health and speed. The mode seems to include a secret boss…but we’ll cover that later.



Similar to The Ultimate Choice, messages exist in regards to a reward for beating the game with all characters. This may be used for 100% completion, too.



The only new information on the subgames is that the UFO enemy appears in the baseball one. They’re quite shallow compared to the 3DS titles…so don’t expect much here. If you haven’t seen them yet, they can be viewed here.

Collectibles

Puzzle Pieces are found throughout the game. They function similar to Streetpass, being used to build a larger picture. When an illustration is completed, music based on it’s title is unlocked and will play. You can find the illustrations, their title and the artist below.

Bosses

Now, for what I’m sure many are excited for…the bosses! Below you will find the pause descriptions, VS. titles, names and moveset analysis for all the bosses.

Guardian of the Forest: Whispy Woods

Kirby’s familiar foe Whispy Woods is back—

bright eyed, bushy headed, and dropping

more apples than should even be possible!

Use your Friend Abilities with Fire,

and cut him down to size!

—–

Air Bullet

Apple

Big Air Bullet

Burst Fruit

Dark Air Bullet

Enemy Summon

Apple Festival

Inhale

[Note: Whispy has an elemental weakness to fire. He has a special death animation and can burn when lit. Whispy can call Burning Leo, Blade Knight, Chilly, Como and Waddle Dee. The Burst Fruit that Whispy calls down can be cooled with Water to gain healing items.]

His Royal Nemesis: King Dedede

Surely King Dedede would never steal

all the food in the kingdom and hoard

it for himself… Why would he do such

a vile deed?! Such questions will have to

wait, as the king is coming for his eternal

rival with all the fury of a wild beast!

—–

Inhale

Star Spit

Air Bullet

Floor Slam Break

Hammer Attack

Head Slide

Hover

Hammer Jump Attack

Super Dedede Jump

Ball Jump

Desperate Dumdum Slam

Food Throw

Pole Food Throw

Desperate Dumdum Pole Slam

Pole Spin

[Note: The food that King Dedede throws can be cleaned and turned into healing items with Water. Dedede’s muscles can infatuate anyone. Don’t stare at them too long or you risk your free will.]



Cycloptic Stormcloud: Kracko

Even in the far-flung reaches of space,

as long as there’s a sky, Kirby’s long-time

nemesis Kracko can show up and cast a

shadow across it. But out here, something

about his energy feels…different.

Stay on your guard, Star Allies!

—–

Tackle

Rain

Beam

Wide Beam

Pursuit Beam

Pursuit Wide Beam

Thunder

Powerful Thunder

Enemy Summon

Slime Generate

[Note: Kracko can be frozen by using Ice attacks while it’s raining.]



The Lone Swordsman: Meta Knight

Corrupted by the power of a dark heart,

Meta Knight’s dedication to the purity

of combat has been eclipsed by a secret

wild streak that always lurked within him.

This once-hidden fury is now unleashed with

every stab and thrust of his sword!

[Note: The Japanese version explains that the heart amplifies a “small, dormant ambition of his.” The official site implies that it has something to do with Revenge of Meta Knight.]

Upper Calibur

Side Slash

Chop and Thrust

Counter

Multislash

Guard

Downwards Thrust

Condor Dive

Shuttle Loop

Sword Kick

Dive Attack

[Note: Meta Knight’s introduction brings back the “Sword Get!” from Kirby’s Adventure. Meta Knight’s death animation brings back the mask break where he proceeds to teleport away using his cloak to hide his face. He separates players using durable stacked rocks. If you break the rocks before Meta Knight, his sword will get stuck in the dirt, making him vulnerable. Meta Knight can use the force in second phase, hence the attack names. If you try to use Inhale on Meta Knight before the fight has started, he will react and resist it before engaging. All the Meta Knight clones can act independently and are not based on another’s actions.]



Dual Defenders: Pon & Con

Pon & Con block the way!

Kitted out in sinister black armor, these

combat-ready critters have got a gate to

guard, and they aren’t about to let the

Star Allies through without a fight!

—–

Walk

Dash

Super Dash

Ice Bomb

Fire Bomb

[Note: Pon & Con’s Fire and Ice bombs can be destroyed by using the opposite element. Pon & Con seem to become friendly when defeated, they open the gate and wave goodbye to Kirby. This may just be for the Shutter Gate on EX, though. They dance, too.]



Frozen General: Francisca

Calm, cool, and collected, Frozen General

Francisca is one of three mages at the

head of Jambastion’s forces. The freezing

attacks she unleashes are enough to chill

the very hearts of those who oppose her.



Undeterred from her quest to find the

dark hearts that have rained down across

the galaxy, the Frozen General is back

and tougher than ever before! Her duties

have kept her away from Flamberge

lately… She kind of misses her.



Song of Supplication-

In spite of all, cold as ice! In spite of all, hard as stone!

In spite of all, hear our plea! In spite of all, all alone!

In spite of all, we reconcile! In spite of all, we pass the trial!

In spite of all, hear us three! We beg of thee! We beg of thee!

[Note: Is called “ー Prayer song to God ー” in Japanese.]

—–

Frozen Gelato

Ice Sherbert

Soda Beam

Axe Throw

Upwards Swing

Downwards Swing

Axe Thrust

Axe Uppercut

[Note: Francisca’s voice can be heard here. Francisca is weak to Fire and Electric attacks. Electric attacks can paralyze her, giving the player time to attack. The three Jambastion mages are clones of each other, similar to Susie and Haltmann, sharing many assets among themselves.]



Blazing General: Flamberge

One of the three Jambastion mages,

the Blazing General Flamberge rains

fiery vengeance upon any who stand in

her way. She gets pretty mad if anyone

does anything to upset Francisca. In fact,

she’s kind of riled up right now…



She’s supposed to be looking for dark

hearts, but Flamberge has found her way

to a nice, toasty spot and is taking a

bit of a break. She’d like to invite

Francisca to join her but worries she

might melt in the heat…



In spite of all, we sing to you!

Please hear our pleas and help us too!

In spite of all, sadness rose!

In spite of all, yearning grows!

We call to you! We dream of you!

In spite of all, this all is true!

Fireball Circus Slash

Flambe Fire

[Note: Flamberge’s voice can be heard here. Flamberge is weak to Ice attacks. Her animation for getting angry is called “God Damn It”.]



Lightning General: Zan Partizanne

The dutiful leader of the three Jambastion

mages, Lightning General Zan Partizanne

seems to energize the fortress itself

and uses high-speed attacks to render her

prey helpless. At the bidding of some

unknown power, she hunts for dark hearts…



Zan Partizanne swore an oath of loyalty to

Hyness—even though he has yet to remember

her overly long name! Her respect for Hyness

never falters, thanks to his intoxicating

charisma and her deep sense of duty

(and despite his poor treatment of her).



In spite of all, cold as ice! In spite of all, hard as stone!

In spite of it all, it would seem…

in spite of all, we’re but a dream.

Hear our plea, you must! (You must!)

Please return our hearts to us!

—–

Lemonade Thunder

Drum Thunderball

Electro Strike

Drum Attack

Big Drum Attack

Electro Spear Throw

Electro Spear Thrust

Lemonade Spear Attack

[Note: Zan Partizanne’s voice can be heard here. Zan Partizanne is weak to Water attacks. She has the hots for Hyness. She calls for Hyness during her EX death animation, too. The thunder core in her battle arena is utilized in the fight. ]



Big Bad Mama: Grand Mam

Grand Mam prides herself on her

impenetrable steel armor! Even the

bullets of the Friend Star bounce off

her harmlessly. Team up and experiment

with abilities to find her weak points,

and bring that clanking calamity down!

—–

Dash

Punch 1

Punch 2

Enemy Call

Armor Install

[Note: To fight Grand Mam, you need to…cut off her arms. Afterwards, you light her bombs on fire to break her armor so she can be damaged. She is fought using the Friend Star. Armor Install is used to generate new armor.]



Officiant of Doom: Hyness

Hyness worships a deity of destruction whom he

plans to bring back to life. However, a rite gone

wrong has led to the dark power he needs being

scattered across the galaxy. Now he seeks to

gather this power at an altar. Stop him, Star Allies!



Hyness did not fully grasp how to completely

break the seal. All that was written about

Void Termina in the ancient scrolls was that

the progenitor of darkness was vanquished by

four heroes of yore, using four spears of the

heart. After that, they were never seen again.

[Note: The Japanese pause screen says Void Termina was “sealed” by the spears of the heart.]



His once carefully concealed face now

exposed, Hyness is on the rampage! Tossing

the three unconscious sisters around like rag

dolls, it’s clear he’s lost his grip on reality.

It’s up to the Star Allies to bring an end to

this nightmare, and save…everything!

[Note: First line says he’s self-concious about his face. The word used for the mages in Japanese is 「シスターズ」 which usually refer to nuns, though it’s possible that it’s used here as a double meaning.]



Bonjam = Greeting Jambuhbye = Goodbye

Jamblasted = Anger Juh? = Huh? Vun = Very

Jamanke = Thank you Japologa = I’m sorry

Jonto = Soon Jaway = I forgot Majaja = Again

Example: “Zan Par…? Jaway majaja! Japologa vun.”

Translation: “Zan Par…? I forgot again! I’m very sorry.”

—–

Cage

Jama Ball

Jama Rain

Freeze Mine

Eruption

Thunder Wave

Jambastion Mage Throw

Jambastion Mage Swing

Jambastion Mage Roll



[Note: Click at your own risk. Hyness possesses the three Jambastion mages to fight, adding in some of his own attacks occasionally similar to Taranza in Triple Deluxe. He has several traits that lead to support this. This includes being registered internally as a stage object instead of an enemy, animations for summoning them, alongside code to send actions to the mages. He has a complex with his true identity and goes crazy when his hood is knocked off. He uses Friend Throw with their limp bodies. Afterwards, their bodies get stuck in the ground. Rolling attack may involve the bosses using Friend Circle, as that combo is called Rolling Friends in Japanese.]



Destroyer of Worlds: Void Termina

Rise! Oh, Dark Lord of Despair!

Crush the stars! Lay waste to care!

Rise and cover the land in sorrows!

May your symphony of emptiness

bring the end of all tomorrows!



Rise! Oh, Dark Lord of Despair!

Crush the stars! Lay waste to care!

Upon your wing, dark judgment bring!

May your symphony of tragedy

cause the end of everything!



The shocking true form of Void Termina has been

revealed! Born from the total absence of care

and composed of dark energy, he has awakened

from a state of mere existence to that of true

sentience. He now desires only one thing…

to CRUSH all opposition!



As the spring breeze blows, a young traveler appears.

After greeting new friends and bidding farewell

to old ones, his path has finally led him here.

Let’s beat this guy already! After that, lunch and a nap!

[Note: this is Kirby talking]



Rise! Oh, Dark Lord of Despair!

Crush the stars! Lay waste to care!

Rise and cover the land in sorrows!

May your symphony of emptiness

bring the end of all tomorrows!



Rise! Oh, Dark Lord of Despair!

Crush the stars! Lay waste to care!

Upon your wing, dark judgment bring!

May your symphony of tragedy

cause the end of everything!



Hatred, obsession, jealousy, greed… The darkness

gathered by Hyness has transformed into a corrupt

power within Void Termina that conflicts with his newly

forged soul. Chaos descends, but…you’ll be OK.

The Star Allies have your back!



No telling if it’s true, but according to the ancient scrolls,

Void Termina may rise again in other forms depending

on whether positive or negative energy is gathered.

It seems this being of darkness will wander the galaxy

until one day he is reborn into a new existence.

When he returns, hopefully it will be as…a friend.

Black Hole

Dark Matter Laser

[Note: The phases for the boss are Human, Bird, Core 1 and Core 2. Human is able to switch the elements of it’s attacks for it’s sword. The eyeball on its stomach is a weak point. Red Tears is likely an internal reference to Zero. Due to the complexity and scale of the final boss, this is the only attack sorted internally for Bird’s phase. The Spear of Love is the same that was being used to seal it in the intro. Rainbow Bow is likely a counterpart to the Rainbow Sword. Core 1 is able to possess your helpers’ soul and make them fight against you, they can be saved by using the Friend Heart. Dark Matter Laser is used in the final attack – Star Allies Sparkler’s Friend Laser against Void Termina’s Dark Matter Laser.]



Old-Growth Elder: Yggy Woods

No—that’s not Whispy Woods!

This venerable elder is Yggy Woods,

ancient king of trees. Any travelers

who stray into his neck of the woods

will feel the full force of nature’s wrath!

[Note: Yggy has an elemental weakness to fire. He has a special death animation, different from Whispy. Yggy can call Burning Leo, Blade Knight, Chilly, Como, Waddle Dee, Driblee, Jammerjab and Gordo. Yggy’s name is a reference to the world tree Yggdrasil. This is further noticed in the Japanese name, Yggdra. Yggy Woods is fought in the final level using the Friend Star, similar to Clanky/Robobot and Flowery/Hypernova.]



Dual Thunderheads: Twin Kracko

Two eyes glare in the gloom like an

angry face in the sky—this isn’t what

Kracko’s like back on Popstar! Twice as

fluffy and twice as mean, Twin Kracko’s

combo attacks are brutal—but they’re

no match for the power of friendship!

—–

Tackle

Rain

Wide Beam

Pursuit Beam

Pursuit Wide Beam

Thunder

Powerful Thunder

Enemy Summon

Slime Generate

[Note: Twin Kracko can be frozen by using Ice attacks while it’s raining. Twin Kracko seems to be created by having a singular Kracko split its body.]



The Metal Heavies: Goldon & Silvox

This glittering duo made their home on

a backwater island on a certain planetoid,

and they’ll viciously attack anyone who

stumbles into their territory. Beware the

furry fury of Goldon and Silvox!

Walk

Dash

Super Dash

Ice Bomb

Fire Bomb

Shutter Gate

[Note: Goldon & Silvox’s Fire and Ice bombs can be destroyed by using the opposite element. The Shutter Gate is used to separate players. It can be destroyed with Fire.]



Temporal Warrior: Galacta Knight

Reborn Butterfly: Morpho Knight

On the day of judgment, this fluttery fiend will fly

into action. Brought into existence by “the greatest

warrior in the galaxy” and reborn as a knight of doom

through years of adversity—now begins an epic battle

with a pure being twisted by a dark past.

[Note: Morpho Knight is heavily based on the unused Meta Knight design from Kirby GCN. Hyness summons Galacta Knight. Galacta Knight calls Morpho Knight from Hades using a black hole. It’s unknown how much Galacta Knight will actually be featured, if at all, as they’re coded as the same boss. Galacta Knight has no pause description despite having VS. Titlecards. Given the Double Sword attacks it’s possible that this boss will dual-wield.]

Essence of Chaos: Void Soul

No one knows from whence he came, only that he has

existed for aeons, unchanging and unrelenting.

Perpetually roaming the cosmos, he has finally arrived.

And now, he has begun to feel. To desire. To think.

Within the Void, there lurks…a Soul!

—–

[Note: Similar to Bird’s phase, Void Soul has no true separation in the code, so it’s impossible to accurately sort out. However, Void Soul doesn’t seem to be a unique boss anyways. It’s simply Void Termina 4 EX, similar to how Magolor Soul is handled.]

Characters like Yggy Woods, Goldon & Silvox and Twin Kracko are essentially the EX variants of the original character. Some characters, like King Dedede, Meta Knight and Grand Mam lack any special EX descriptions and titles. King Dedede and Meta Knight seem to lack EX variants completely.



Story

Here’s the entire story script. The Jambastion Mages’ EX dialogue is activated in either The Ultimate Choice or during rematches in story mode’s final world. It directly references Kirby so Star Allies Go! isn’t a possibility.

Francisca (Encounter):

…Bonjam.

Heh. That’s how we greet people

on MY planet. I am Francisca, one of the three

generals of magic. Together, we command the Fortress

of Shadows known as…Jambastion!

We wish to assemble the dark

Jamba Heart pieces that were

scattered across the universe. Once we do, our most twisted of

visions will finally be…untwisted.

Unthawed? Unfurled! But I do not wish to waste my time with

pointless chatter. So I won’t! Just know that should you attempt

to oppose us…

I’ll have no choice but to put you

on ice…FOREVER!



Francisca EX (Encounter):

…Hmph. Color me surprised.



I certainly didn’t expect to run into your puffy self again.

And here I thought you were buried along with the

Jambastion… Well then! I’ll just have to ensure that

my victory is complete this time!



I shall now turn this pink ball of nice

into a frozen block of ice!

Heh! I always wanted an ice sculpture

for my trophy collection!

Flamberge (Encounter):

HEY, YOU!

Stubby little…pink thing!

Yes, YOU! I have a buuuurning question for you!

You’re the one who was so rude to

sweet Francisca, aren’t you?!

Don’t you dare try to deny it! Fiend! Coward! I swear, if you’ve

harmed a single blue hair on her

perfect head…you’ll BURN for it!!!

Jamblasted!!

I will never EVER forgive you! Now you must face Flamberge!

That’s ME!

For what you’ve done, I’ll scorch you

to such a degree that…that…

even tasty, toasty marshmallows

will seem like ice cubes

compared to you!

[Note: This line was toned down and heavily localized, the Japanese version roughly translates to “I’ll burn you to the point that you’ll think the flames of hell are lukewarm.”]



Flamberge EX (Encounter):

Bahaha!



Who would have thought my search for

the Jamba Heart pieces would lead me

back to you and your puffery! This must

be the fiery flames of fate at work!

Ooooh yeaaaah!

My flames and I are fully stoked now!

Beware, you puny pink pest! In the name of Lord Hyness…

I’ll turn you into a burning ball

of meddlesomeness!

[Note: Her “Ooooh yeaaaah!” is more literately “Argh!”. She comes off too comical at times because her lines have been exaggerated in localization. Francisca suffers this to an extent too.]

Zan Partizanne (Encounter):

Bonjam.

I am Zan Partizanne, the eldest of the

three generals of magic.

At first I thought you to be just a

simpleton with a knack for annoyance.

Hmph! Now it is clear that you are an

interfering interloper! But I am afraid your unwanted

wanderings end here.By the will of our beloved liege,

Lord Hyness, Officiant of Doom…

I shall destroy you here and now!

Zan Partizanne EX (Encounter):

Stop right there, pink one!



I did not expect you to survive

your visit to Jambastion. What’s more, you somehow bested

my darling Franny and Berge! However, your luck has run out.

It is the dearest wish of Lord Hyness…

THAT NO ONE INTERFERES!

Zan Partizanne (Defeat):

Ugh… Jam…blasted…

Bah! How could there be such opposition

on a measly and remote planet like this?!

Well, it matters not. This Jamba Heart

piece is already within my grasp! Listen here, you tiny ball of puffy pink

mischief! For all I care…

You and this Jambastion can

rot in ruin forever!!

Baaahahahaha!

Jambuhbye!

Zan Partizanne EX (Defeat):

Heeelp… Hy…ness…



Hyness (Appear):



Juh?

What is this…interference?

You… You seem to be in my way.

Well then…It seems…we do not have enough energy…to revive our Dark Lord… Must we…allow ourselves…to fall…into oblivion?

No.

NO!

No no no no no no!

NONONONONONONONONO!!!

NOOOOO, I SAAAAY!!!

We are the masters of a power driven to the far reaches of the universe, and we have but one desire! Can one such as you possibly fathom how dearly we have clung to this dream across the aeons? How could you! You couldn’t! Never ever ever! We who once faced those who were in such fear of our power that they sealed us away and banished us to the edge of the galaxy! US! As if THAT loveliness wasn’t enough, they tried to erase our very existence from history! RUDE! Only through our magic were we able to overcome their science and achieve great prosperity! We alone were responsible for stopping that repulsive nightmare of a galactic crisis, yet this is how you repay us! This won’t stand! It won’t be forgiven! It won’t be forgotten! Never ever EVER! Those who called us mad, are you listening? You left us at the edge of the galaxy to be forgotten, then went along your merry way, probably living somewhere pretty and peaceful! But know this! Your future is a farce! You have none! We, masters of a matter most dark, vow to be restored, as foretold in the book of legend, which everyone thought was just a fairy tale! It WASN’T! We have already obtained the vessel that contains our Dark Lord, and he will soon awaken and shower us in compassion! Look! The vessel of our Dark Lord is filling up even as we speak! Now the time for his greatness to enter our world has come! Welcome to a new history! A new age! The age of awesome! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DARK LORD! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Grace us, Gloriously Dark Looooooord!

Huff… Hah… Huff… Hah…

You see it now…don’t you? Anyone who interrupts our revival ceremony…

We must kindly ask that they…

PLEASE DISAPPEAR FOREVER!

[Note: Hyness sometimes stretches out vowels and talks slowly, for example “What is this…interference?” is along the lines of “Whaat is this interferencee?”. In contrast, his long speech doesn’t stretch out words because he’s talking quickly until the last sentence. He says Happy Birthday in Japanese too: 「はっぴぃーばーすで～い！」. "The age of awesome!“ in Japanese is him going on about Void’s birth. "Dark Lord” in the original is simply “God”. His “PLEASE DISAPPEAR FOREVER!” line is him formally asking kirby to kill himself for his god. “Perhaps if there is…an offering…” is originally “Perhaps if theere’s… A sacrificee…” in Japanese.]

Hyness (Crazy):

Juh?

JUH…

JUH?

JUHYAMBAVITRIGOKOPOKOJAAAH!!

Hyness (Defeat):

Youuuuu…How could you defeat me…

THE Lord Hyness…

An offering to our Dark Lord…

Perhaps if there is…an offering…

What should I do…Only one option remains…

Those who harbor the greatest of magic,

I call upon you…

Make it so…

Accept my aid…I pledge myself to you…Dark Lord of Destruction…

I do this so that…

our Dark Lord…may be rebooooorn…

Rise, Destroyer of Worlds…

RISE, VOID TERMINA!!
