Curate, connect, and discover
Alright, cycle of matter isn't necessarily canon since there's been no official statement about void's relations to puffballs or dark matter. (Ty misconception wiki)
Doesn't change the fact that 45 kirbies died. (For those confused, the first 9 die to the wand and the next 36 die from skullies when traveling from island to island.)
I'm still on-board the cycle of matter/void theory and I'm using it in personal interpretation but due to it being a theory I'm gonna try and be more lenient with upcoming titles :)
Bro, I wanna talk about the implications of Kirby Mass Attack so bad... I will go down with the take that it's the darkest Kirby game of all time; a MINIMUM of 45 Kirbys end up dead and lore implications (like the cycle of matter/mitosis) make it so much worse! ðŸ˜
Imagine, as a child, having to guide/care for infant versions of yourself that can barely defend themselves and at least 45 of them end up dying.
This shit was so bad the ending had Kirby actually do some self reflection. Straight up looking out at the void of space and acknowledging that darkness had to exist IN NARRATIVE TEXT!
Kirby may not be phased by too much at his current age, but oh my god the stuff he's gonna have to reflect on when he's older...
