KIRBY-KUU-STAR ALLIES-HAIKU NO.23-DERIVED FROM PAGES 078+079+080+081-MACHO MONARCH KIRBY-KUU LOGO, DESIGNED AND DRAWN BY @MOTIVATORART.BSKY.SOCIAL , PLEASE SUPPORT HIM, HE IS A JOY TO WORK WITH, AND PUTS HIS WHOLE HEART INTO EVERY PIECE!

Jam-ba'd jock hangs tough Mus-cles pump-ing, fed and buff -- Right-ful King ends Puff.

Page 075 of Kirby Star Allies The Original Artbook depicts King Dedede, all swole up, and ready to fight! The Jamba Heart has taken hold, imbuing him with powers unknown to even him, in his usual chubby self expressions. King Dedede starts the game being possessed by one of the falling Jamba Heart pieces and sets off Kirby's adventure by once again stealing all of the food in Dream Land via his Waddle Dee servants. When Kirby and friends arrive in the throne room of Castle Dedede, they can see King Dedede gorging himself on the (quite dirty) food, and King Dedede attacks Kirby's team immediately. The first phase of the battle plays out as usual, with Dedede attacking using Head Slides, Dedede Jumps, his hammer, hovering, and his Hypernova Inhale. (Wikirby.com)

Page 076 of Kirby Star Allies The Original Artbook depicts King Dedede again, but specifically, the beginning of the 3 pages of thumbnail sketches they used to plan out the boss fight and subsequent cutscenes. Once the second phase begins, Dedede is consumed by the power possessing him and becomes considerably beefier; his arms becoming huge and ripping through his robe. In this form, Dedede uses his massive arms to pummel Kirby and friends, as well as toss food, swing around columns, and break the floor away to reveal new arenas and (momentarily) separate Kirby's teammates. Once defeated, the dark heart pops out of King Dedede and he returns to normal (his robe also being inexplicably repaired), then passes out. If Kirby is fast near the end of this defeat sequence, they can toss a Friend Heart at King Dedede and recruit him right away as a Dream Friend. Kirby and co. then do their victory dance and pursue the dark heart after the credits roll. (Wikirby.com) God I adore these thumbnails, and it represents how much effort they really put in for Kirby's first game on the Nintendo Switch💪✨️
