Here we are with the third batch of Q&A!

Some of these have SPOILERS for future anime and game things, so they have been blacked out. How to view em? Simply highlight the text!

Name: ???

Q: how does kirby get the star rod towards the end of the series and how does he kill nightmare with it? does he blow him up? disinigrate him? or just make him disapear? also who goes with kirby to the holy nightmare ship?

Eh, ya know I don't really like giving out too many spoilers. That and I've answered some of these questions before.

Name: Emerald

Q: Hi. I notice this site uses the name ANIMA in conjunction with the Kirby Show. I do not think that is true. Sure, anima means animated charetoon in japanan, but it also has to do with the style of animation. Kirby is semi- three dimensional. To me, this doesn't seem like anima. Anyways, I may be wrong, but please tell me what you think? Is Kirby ANIMA or not?

...This is 'Anima'.

As you can see, Kirby is not 'Anima'. However, he is 'Anime'. =P

'Anime' is simply the Japanese word for anything animated- doesn't matter where it's from or who makes it, if it's drawn, moving pictures, it's anime. Not just the characters- it's what it is. And yes, Kirby's show IS an anime- many anime now use 3DCG in addition to traditional cel animation. It's nothing new really, though Kirby has been one of the few to try to merge them in such a way.

Name: Hamer

Q: I was wondering why they don't air some of the shows?

Ah, good question actually... I guess you mean why they haven't shown some of the episodes in the US. So far they've skipped two- ep 17 'The Ring Story of Parm and Memu' and ep 32- 'Without a tooth, there is no speech'.

However, I'm really not sure why they were skipped. There was nothing offensive or overly violent in either epis- well, okay the tooth episode had some rather sadistic dentist stuff, but the ring episode was harmless and cute. (They showed it in other countries where Kirby airs apparently.)

Name: _quill

Q: Where do you get episodes of the Japanese anime?

I thought I said this... Well, I buy my DVDs over at www.amazon.co.jp and www.cdjapan.co.jp =D

Name: Mike Liotta

Submission: If they do make a new season of "Hoshi no Kabii" ... <snip stuff>

Um... No idea what a new series would be like. It'd probably be made by the same people at Warpstar though. Though with Sakurai gone, it might be different...

Name: waldle dee

Q: if the warpstar dies, will kirby die too?

I don't think the Warpstar can 'die', really, but I suppose it could be destroyed. I doubt Kirby would die from it, but he'd lose the boost of energy it seems to provide him, not to mention the speedy transport.

Name: brandon

Q: do you guys have any info or snapshots of waddle dees?

Ah, yeah, I have a lotta Waddle Dee art over at my site.

Name: ???

Q: If Meta Knight even looses his mask, around which of the episodes does it happen? You know like 70-80 something like that.

I all ready answered this.

Name: Ezekiel White

Q: Hey Ivyna! I need to ask you about a Kirby form. Its wierd. It's called Sweet Potato Kirby? I just want to know more about this form, because I don't think it's appeared in any game I have. Who is Sweet Potato Kirby? What does he look like? And more importantly, what can he do??

Sorry, had to cut most of your stuff- please don't talk so much, it's annoying. Just keep your questions simple, okay?

And I all ready answered this question!

Name: prof. Kirby

Q: Will Dark Matter ever be in an episode?

No.

Name: Some Filth

Q: Rather than risk misspelling your name I'll jump right into my questions. I just need to get some things clear about Ado. Is it a boy or girl? I think I head it called Adeline. Another thing, is it ever commeing out in the show? That would be really cool. Finally, was it ever really evil? Or was it just possessed on all the games. Oh! That Reminds me, can you quickly tell me how gooey (I think thats how you spell it) came to be? I never got to play that game.

Ado and Gooey are game characters, not anime. Ask KW. (I could answer- but I'm cranky and I don't want to.)

Name: RevorTay AlphRay

Submission: I asked KW, so I had to ask you too! Hehehe...uh...letsee here...question numero uno: I never see much of Kirby's animal friends, Kine, Coo, and Rick, anymore. THe last episode that they were important was the one where they turned evil or something like that..(I only saw the last 15 minutes of that episode! ;^-^) I want to know if there are any episodes coming up with them in it.

Evil? O_o They're not evil... Eh, the only animal friend that gets an ep focused on them is Kine, with the ep 'The Fish that Loved Me' or, 'A Fish Called Kine'. He stalks Fumu. Rick has had more focus on him too, but never a whole ep.

Also, a while ago you put something up that showed the ending of an episode titled, "Tiff's Big Break". On a scale of 1-10, what's the chance of 4Kids not airing this episode?

'Tiff's Big Break'? O_o Where'd you get that? I guess you're referring to the episode 'Geek Anime! Fumutan of the Stars!'. I say on the scale of it being shown in the US, I give it a 4.

And finally, In an earlier episode Tiff said something about TVs being evil (Freak. :P) but she watches the TV. Why? Uh...sorry for these seemingly stupid questions, I just wanted answers.

TV isn't always evil? I dunno. Probably because there isn't much else to do, and it's a good way to keep an eye on what Dedede's up to.

Name: kirbygun

Submission: Hi Ivyna, i want to ask you some questions, but first i want to tell you that your site of kirby RULES!!!!!

Thank ya.

ok now the questions

1.There's a secret episode of kirby, like episode 0?

Er, nope. Just 1-100.

2.Well, I'm south american so i watch kirby in spanish... so if you want, i can be part of KRR and tell you everything about spanish kirby. and you know, the episode of the lost ring camed here but the episode of the snacks not... why!!!????

That'd be pretty cool. I'd love sound clips, ya know. XD And I'm not sure why you guys got the ring ep and we didn't... I'm working on having the Japanese version subbed though.

3. I think 4kids sucks so bad... EVERY ANIME HAS THEIR LOST EPISODES!!!! pokemon, kirby,yu-gi-oh, etc. So i send a message for everyone, no 4kids antmore, cause they'll turn your anime into 4babies!!!

4Kids is indeed a very sucky company.

Name: Tom

Q: What does ENEMIE look like? His pic is just a shadow with a big ? mark at Kirby.com. Is there a pic available?

...

THERE IS NO NME OR ENEMIE OR HOWEVER THE HELL YOU SPELL IT.

He's called NIGHTMARE. NIGHTMARE. The SAME final boss you fight at the end of Kirby's Adventure and the remake 'Nightmare in Dreamland' with the Star Rod! So you should know what he looks like!

This NME crap was something made up by 4Kids. Don't believe it.

GOT IT?!

*fumes*

Name: Tannakitten

Q: another ones... Why are Kirby's feet bright red in the games, but mahogany in the anime?

Because the contrast between pink and burgundy (not mahogany) probably looked better than pink and red.

Kirby faints to much.....what? Yeh, and I believe my theory, that turning into a human thing. It must be true! It all makes sense to me, those little clues Metaknight always says..yeah you can laugh at me.

What theory?

Oh yeah, The nightmare thing.. He looks Kewlies and sinister in the GAME.. not the anime. At least in the game, you cant see all those warts. OO;; and he looks like a spider.

He has no warts in the anime and looks exactly the same in the show as in the game. (Except perhaps with pointier teeth.)

And his true body is like a shiny cyclone thingy. WHAT KIND OF TWISTED FUTURE DO WE LIVE IN? ... and don't call me 'sweetie'. It's freaky. 0_o

His true body in the anime is much cooler.

Sweetie pie.

Name: Supercutekirby

Q: Between the first and second Knuckle Joe episode, our fighting friend changed his skin, hair, and clothing color from purple, green, and red to blue, yellow and...well, skin color. Why and how did he do that?

You aren't really supposed to think of HOW he did it- it's really just supposed to be symbolic. In Kirby Superstar, enemy Knuckle Joes are purple with white hair and red clothes, and helper Knuckle Joes are peach with blonde hair and blue clothes. It's just to symbolize he's on Kirby's side. =P

Name: Green Kirby (alot of'm, aren't they're?)

Q: hey, I was wondering... Why is most of the characters ENEMIES in most kirby games?
Chef Kawasaki is a boss in Kirby SS!

If he was a one of Nightmare's demons in the show then Kirby would have to kill him, and Kawasaki rules, so they made him a good guy instead. =P

Name: Mike

Q: Um...Would it be okay if I ask you these questions? How the heck did you find out what abilities, characters, and monsters appear in the future episodes, or the titles for that matter?

Oh, I just translate the info I find on Japanese sites. ^_^ (Kirby Warrior helped by translating the titles though.)

Is Wing Kirby look as cute as he does in the games (if you haven't seen him, then do ya think he will be?)

He looks just like in the games.

Also, how does Japanese Knuckle Joe, Silica, Chilly, Nightmare (if he ever does speak during the times American nightmare speaks)and any of the Cappies sound like? Just curious.

From those that I've heard, they sound much better. XD Especially Joe. I'm gonna have sound clips and stuff up eventually so everyone can hear em.

P.S. Japanese Wolfwrath K.A.I.J. (Known as in Japan) Chilidog (dies laughing) sounds like japanese Inuyasha.

Eh? O_o I've never seen Inuyasha, but does he make some kinda weird screechy howly sound? ^_^; (Chilidog/Wolfwrath sounds the same in Japanese and English...)

Name: jarredchili

Q: hey are there plans of a kirby movie?

I all ready answered this.

That's all for this time, kiddies!
