Star-Crossed World (and Forgotten Land Switch 2 Edition)

[tacit saffron]

assuming this mural was also in the original

[languid cobalt]

foreshadowing?

[tacit saffron]

yeah it is too

[toxic delta]

yeah it was

[tacit saffron]

for now let's assume it is a mural of a AD portal

I doubt Kumazaki and the team were thinking far about star shaped rocks from a dimension during that time

[toxic delta]

as I said, could always retroactively make it a double-meaning thing
(not that I think it matters much either way tbh, Rare Stones and Another Dimension stuff are already sort of connected)

[signal garnet]

like, there's no way in hell this doesn't hace something to do with another dimension

[green crater]

Mostly a joke, but what if these replies are a hint

[random tendon]

LOOOOOOL

[toxic delta]

Kumazaki liked that emoji so much, he made a whole story based off of it

[vagrant hound]

This is getting pinned

No one can stop me otherwise

[random tendon]

does this mean this is a hint to the final boss

[vagrant hound]

Magolor

[random tendon]

WHAT

[green crater]

Oh god, another hand boss

[vagrant hound]

[random tendon]

magolor, the only kirby character who can clap:

[shut pendant]

OH MY GOD THE SPARKLES

[vagrant hound]

He claps more than anyone else

Checkmate

Magolor is showing up

[shut pendant]

[signal garnet]

im not sure if anyone asked this but i wonder what kuma was thinking

[toxic delta]

has no fingers smh

[signal garnet]

he looked at making a dlc for FL and what came to mind for some reason was a mode with crystal stars

[wise flame]

Ok I've had this 2nd save file where NONE of my abilities got upgraded (but I still got the evolutions)

[signal garnet]

i don't think ive seen anyone think about why that'd be

[wise flame]

I might wanna start SCW on that file just to keep things fair because I know for sure it's not gonna be built for star tier abilities

[tacit saffron]

don't forget what I said

[signal garnet]

he still has hands! it's just that they're small and blend with the rest of his arms

[toxic delta]

[signal garnet]

hand area

[toxic delta]

yeah but I mean, fingers, like in the emojis

[wise flame]

The entire nub of a kirby character has Gecko Like folds which allows them to hold items despite the visual oddity

[toxic delta]

not that Magolor has the most either I guess

[signal garnet]

ohhh

[vagrant hound]

Maybe it’s like this…

[signal garnet]

i thought you meant that he couldnt clap for some reason

[toxic delta]

or well, not until Traitor Magolor lmao

[wise flame]

Hello what the fuck

[vagrant hound]

EVERYTIME SOMEONE MENTIONS ABOUT KIRBY CHARACTER HAS NO HANDS

Well no fingers

It reminds me of this meme 😭

[signal garnet]

maybe he can grow a bit of fingers like how pokemon can grow thumbs

hehe i like overthinking little cartoon hands

[wise flame]

Kirby's hands have no nerves

[green crater]

It'll be them, or maybe one of the Wham Bams

[signal garnet]

wham bam jewel...

[wise flame]

They're just skin willing to destroy itself at will if it means holding a hammer

It grows back

[vagrant hound]

Hands = Traitor Magolor and Magolor Second Form/Magolor Soul

[signal garnet]

like the fingers are there in the "skeleton", it's just kinda like a mitten so they're never revealed

but they can still make gestures

if that makes sense

[green crater]

I figure characters in the Kirby universe can just change their hand shape at will, when it's useful or funny anyway

[wise flame]

Put Magolor's hands in a box then slowly raise the box up high into the air and see what happens

[signal garnet]

i mean they can retract their feet at will, as we see heavily in kdl3

and even this game whenever kirby uses needle

[vagrant hound]

I wanna just, steal Magolor’s hands

It’s so perfection

[wise flame]

Like do the hands stop working?

Does Magolor stop working?

[vagrant hound]

Never in my life imagined I’d say I’ll do anything for someone’s hands

[green crater]

🗨️

[signal garnet]

im honestly interested in what you find interesting about magolor's hands

[wise flame]

It's a part of Magolor

[vagrant hound]

His hands animation is top tier

[green crater]

They're weirdly well animated

[wise flame]

Wouldn't you wanna own the body part of a favorite character?

[vagrant hound]

Gosh it’s SO PERFECTLY ANIMATED

Even in original RTDL

[signal garnet]

like is specifically because they belong to magolor or do you think magolor's in particular looks nice-?
ah

[toxic delta]

free gloves-

[vagrant hound]

Magolor’s hands animation is so eye appealing

[signal garnet]

i find it funny that every othe character in the series that is obviously wearing gloves has it so you can see the opening of the glove

and the magolor just

doesnt lol

[toxic delta]

I mean I think just about everything about him is appealing lmao

animation-wise, ears in particular are also cute

[signal garnet]

bro zipped his gloves closed so he never has to take them off

[green crater]

Also I am legit curious how floating hands even work. How far can I take them from the body? There's clearly no invisible arm there because some of Magolor's animations would not be possible if there was.

[signal garnet]

oh definitely

especially that one animation in fighters 2 with the ears

[vagrant hound]

I will talk about every pixel and every body part of Magolor like my life depends on it

[toxic delta]

magic

[signal garnet]

oh yeah, i love thinking about that

[vagrant hound]

[green crater]

By "how do they work" I mean more in the practical "what are they capable of" way lol Like can I steal one and go to another planet? If so, can he still control it from that distance?

[vagrant hound]

Honestly, I think it’s best to not to think too hard on it, like, I’d assume it’s just some most normal body phenomenon in Kirby universe and it just, happens

They’re Bluetooth, trust me

[signal garnet]

well duh

that's the point of overthinking

[green crater]

Can floating hand characters send their floating hands into a small crack in the wall to retrieve something a character with arms could never reach??

[signal garnet]

over

thinking

[vagrant hound]

Probably, tbh

[green crater]

It's just funny to think about the possibilities

[vagrant hound]

I feel like they’d have a limit, but they can go as far as they can

[shut pendant]

i think they're just magically attached rather than physically attached so they still work the exact same as a normal hand except they can move it a bit more freely, but they can't like move it away or it can't be left behind

that leaves the least amount of plotholes behind i think

[green crater]

I'm also thinking of that one manga where Kirby adopts one of Taranza's run away hands as a pet

Like how wacky can we go? Lol

[signal garnet]

i like to headcanon it works by kinda sort of having long noodley invisible metaphysical arms, but they can put them in a "detatched mode" where they just move freely and can move them as far as they want telekinetically and can do cool stuff like throwing it a far distance

im clearly a very neurotypical person

i honestly extend that to the weird star eye guy we're seeing in the trailer too

[vagrant hound]

Moretsu Pupupu Hour volume 10!

[green crater]

It's such a delightful bizarre premise and I love it so much

[signal garnet]

and when it's "attatched", if you, like, locked it behind a door or something it would still physically stop you from going to far

[vagrant hound]

Rip Taranza died from Marx kicking him

[signal garnet]

i look at it a lot and it seems to line up with his movements

[green crater]

Picture, if you will, a fish tank on a desk. It's not full of water, but is set up as a little habitat with a cloth nest and a food bowl, etc. Inside is one of Magolor's hands, crawling about like Thing from the Addams Family. It scratches at the walls. Yukkuri reaches in and pets it soothingly, adding more food to the bowl...

[vagrant hound]

I had to double look at the message because I couldn’t believe who sent this message 😭 😭 😭

[green crater]

If you laughed, it was mission accomplished

[signal garnet]

can we pin this?

it's related to magolor

LEO

[signal garnet]

LESGO

[vagrant hound]

I SWEAR

[signal garnet]

you're th best leo

[green crater]

I almost feel like I should apologize now 😂

[vagrant hound]

Random people looking through the pin trying to find SCW content

[green crater]

I'm hoping we'll unpin some of my nonsense when needed 😂

[vagrant hound]

LOL

Nah just because of that, it’ll stay forever

[green crater]

😭😂

[vagrant hound]

Both of us will suffer now

[signal garnet]

10/10 guys ty lol

i love this series

[green crater]

Me: Just trying to be funny
Apollo Leo with the gift curse of prophecy pinning it...

[amber tinsel]

In the thread straight up pinning it

[green crater]

😭😂

[vagrant hound]

LEO

Go split yourself into 3

[green crater]

I'm actually laughing where people could hear me 😭

[amber tinsel]

????

[amber tinsel]

That's a bit gorey even for you

But aight if you're so insistent

I am going to

[vagrant hound]

😭 😭 😭 😭

[tacit saffron]

gorey?

gooey?

[vagrant hound]

Gooey?

[tacit saffron]

[vagrant hound]

😭

[vagrant hound]

So are you telling me Elfilis splitting their self into 3 isn’t gore but when you do it it’s gore?

[tacit saffron]

"That's a bit gooey for you yukkuri senpai."

[vagrant hound]

That’s crazy, next time Leo’s splitting into 5, Comet told me

[signal garnet]

who are you dark meta knight?

[vagrant hound]

Chaos Eleoflis

[tacit saffron]

actually just Dedede Clone

[signal garnet]

same

[vagrant hound]

This is you in 2025 @amber tinsel

[shut pendant]

3 pins in 35 minutes is crazy

[amber tinsel]

You will not know

[vagrant hound]

Gigi storming in this chat all confused

Asking what happened this past 30 mins

Can’t forget the hands

We need to discuss how this bro’s hands floats

Also clearly it’s Magolor reference

[green crater]

I'm intrigued by their hand shape, too. It looks like maybe three very stubby fingers? Maybe a fourth we can't see, but what is that shape?

[vagrant hound]

I wonder if it’s easy to grab an pencil

[shut pendant]

🫘

[signal garnet]

yeah i like the three fingered hands

[vagrant hound]

Mmmmm dinner

[signal garnet]

it's also really cute how stubby they are

[green crater]

Also, I am once again mesmerized by these colors

[shut pendant]

YOU KNOW WHO ELSE HAS 3 FINGERS???

...actually i can't think of anyone

[signal garnet]

would be fun to take as a pet maybe

[shut pendant]

https://tenor.com/view/regular-show-my-mom-shirt-swing-trash-talk-bye-gif-5037821

[green crater]

Everything we've seen so far is like pure eye candy

[reef patrol]

Huh, just occurred to me that this is the first fl character with floating hands

[signal garnet]

if scw was good it'd give this guy crystal paw beans

[signal garnet]

ok i definitely remmebr another hol on

it's not wild edge...

[green crater]

Yeah, I feel like all the New World specific characters have actual arms

[signal garnet]

Bernard!

that's who it was

[shut pendant]

bernard

[signal garnet]

jinx

[shut pendant]

[signal garnet]

you owe a kirbt lore cola

[shut pendant]

why is he called bernard

[reef patrol]

ah, I see

[green crater]

Like the dog maybe

[signal garnet]

it sounds like dog fitting name

bernard is so funny

[reef patrol]

Because Bernard is a breed of dog iirc

[vagrant hound]

No way Magolor

[signal garnet]

his hands are this weird orange color that stands out from the rest of his color scheme

but on his render they're fur covered

[toxic delta]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Bernard_(dog_breed)

[signal garnet]

so it's a weird feeling

but yeah!

[vagrant hound]

I love St. Bernard

[signal garnet]

even in the new world!

things evolve to be weirdly kirbylike

[vagrant hound]

Very gentle but strong dog

[signal garnet]

the dogs evolve to have floating hands

which makes you wonder how an animal evolves to have detatched hands...

[ocean ingot]

What about Magolor - Pixel 86

-# /ref

[signal garnet]

wait
you can see bernard putting his finger in the gun hole

[shut pendant]

yeah

[tepid burrow]

When the leaks gets spilled we move to leaks and rumors

[languid cobalt]

Deal

[heady ravine]

There's a dog breed called a St. Bernard, yeah.

or saint bernard

but clearly bernard is no saint 😔

becauseeee it tries to shoot kirby in the face

https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRE4D9-KsfCpSvjzWiN1GktEABvOAruof6zwA&s

honestly yeah they have the same droopy face

[tepid burrow]

Will Mirror Kirby Return

[languid cobalt]

Maybe in the next game

But probably not in star crossed

[vagrant hound]

Mirror is stuck in merch hell

[languid cobalt]

Or dark meta knight

[tepid burrow]

I Wonder if Star-Crossed Worlds Will have a Soundtrack leak.

Just like Forgotten Land

[sand patrol]

wasnt that cause of the demo

[twin fog]

don't think the demo had any unused music just sitting there

Unfortunately its unlikely we'll have the ability to dump switch 2 game files by the time SCW comes out

I will cope about the possibility though

[pastel jungle]

this going to be the first kirby game in over 2 decades that couldnt be datamined or pirated

[sand patrol]

no

[ocean ingot]

You fools, i have already recreated the game from scratch from memory! No kirby game is safe>:D (yes, final boss is Crystal Galacta Knight and the Starries are evil creatures ((also true true arena secret boss is Astrodee Soul)))

[glad path]

Late on this but rtdl (and by extension RTDLDX) have a few odd textures, like the salamander-thing in Halcandra or the glyph in Nutty Noon

There's also the graffiti in the sewer

[sterile quartz]

that entire sewer level always felt odd to me

[green crater]

Isn't that the level where the background that you can barely see is actually a left over level from GCN days?

[toxic delta]

yeah

it's pretty clearly a stage (or well, a room) when you see it in full

[sterile quartz]

i just meant that it felt strangely contemporary compared to the mystical buildings and ruins on popstar and the abandoned cyberpunk-like places on the rest of halcandra

[green crater]

ahh

[toxic delta]

got another one (in stage 2 of Fine Fields)

[vital lodge]

It's Wham Bam Jewel!!

Every dimension has its Kracko, its Void and most importantly its Wham Bam Jewel. We just happened to defeat the one in the main universe in 2008.

[toxic delta]

what about the rest of the Wham Bam Clan

we have at least two Wham Bam Rocks

[vital lodge]

Well it's difficult to tie them with all this crystal theme

[vagrant hound]

wham bam jewel hinted SCW

[tacit saffron]

Wham Bam Crystal

[sudden mirage]

new(? I think) video

[random tendon]

Ouch

[violet gorge]

@vagrant hound

[shut pendant]

imagine someone opening this forum, except to see some interesting kirby and the forgotten land - nintendo switch 2 edition + star-crossed world discussion, only to see this

[violet gorge]

How do you think I felt opening the pinned messages today

[green crater]

I feel like I should apologize for what I have wrought 😭😂

[violet gorge]

But it was soooo funny 😭

[green crater]

😂

[vagrant hound]

WHAT

[violet gorge]

[vagrant hound]

I JUST BURST INTO LAUGHTER AT WORK

[violet gorge]

If you get in trouble Im sorry

[vagrant hound]

What if I jokingly pin this

[vagrant hound]

Everyone checking pins: “!?”

[tacit saffron]

what if you unjokingly unpin it

remove it while people see it

[vagrant hound]

This is like whole saga here

[vagrant hound]

@amber tinsel This is your fault /lhj

[violet gorge]

This is the “we ran out of news” saga of the hype cycle

Thats when stuff devolves into this lmao

[tacit saffron]

time to make shitposts yay

so in this saga, what happens next with leo?

[violet gorge]

Who knows

[tacit saffron]

he makes the water red

[vagrant hound]

I’ll continue making evil Dee

naughty dee

You have done well my servant

Who’s to say they don’t actually do this

[turbid nexus]

It’s peak…

[shut pendant]

love how the mods take advantage of the forums by pinning like 2 messages per day

[broken void]

Liberated by new pin space

[high widget]

we make history by doing what we do

[violet gorge]

Will this be in air riders?

[crude summit]

this is sick as hell

[broken void]

I love their eyes 👀

very FL-coded

[sudden mirage]

and we will pin 2 more

[coarse arrow]

Holy shit

[frail crypt]

imagine it’s wham bam gaia

or some brand new wham bam

[shut pendant]

(continuing from #kirby-kingdom) imagine if they give us lore on how blueprints based on kirby's copy abilities exist in the new world

[ocean ingot]

Wham bam cheese

[shut pendant]

since we're getting new figures of old stuff (like the wanya wanya max warp star) we might get like a new figure based on a blueprint

WITH LOREEEE

[torpid pagoda]

Ok so do I really wanna buy the same game just for one extra piece of content

[wise flame]

Pretty darn certain the new currency is a way to circumvent the issue of potentially outpacing the new mode's progression for players who've invested wayyyy too much time into the base game

IDK if everything to do with SCW will require the new currency, but oh boy I am STACKED with cash over here on both save files...

It still makes me wonder the scope of the expansion... Like how big is it to warrant exclusive coins?

[acoustic sage]

And what will we buy with them?

[wise flame]

Starry Utopia

We're just gonna build a whole ass city around the evil ass heart

Maybe some new evolutions

[green crater]

Fortunately, you won't have to. You can just buy the "upgrade pack" which will basically be a cheaper dlc

[acoustic sage]

Actually I just had a thought

What if some of the level themes weren't just expanded on, but remixed

[wise flame]

We still don't got a darn clue on the plot outside of the surface level premise...

[acoustic sage]

And not just like "Add blue crystal to Orlando"

I mean bringing in a completely new theme

Imagine a Summer Horns

We already see a meteor parting and freezing the Red Sea

[wise flame]

I do hope the aesthetic varies beyond simple blue crystals

[acoustic sage]

I just had another idea, relating to when exactly Star-Crossed World will take place

[wise flame]

The cotton-candy icecream landscape is pretty neat when it's warping the world we know of, but surely it'll go crazier when we inevitably visit their side of reality

[acoustic sage]

So you know The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero DLC for Scarlet & Violet

You can do all of the Kitakami and Blueberry Academy stuff as soon as you unlock them basically (Though it has to be in that order)

But to do the final act with Terapagos and all, you have to have beaten the main story too

[wise flame]

I do wonder when SCW takes place...

I'm a little worried that, although they'll imply that it's happened after Isolated Isles and potentially the True Arena... they won't really show it

[acoustic sage]

So maybe most of the story can be done during the postgame, but then there's extra content for those who have also beaten Forgo Dreams/Ultimate Cup Z

[wise flame]

Or it'll be a situation where, if you beat Isolated Isles, then maybe some of the story progress will actually carry over to SCW??

[acoustic sage]

Wonder how that would work

Would there be two different stories then?

[green crater]

I guess it would heavily depend on where it unlocks

[acoustic sage]

Or more like what I said where there's some stuff locked behind beating the regular postgame as well

[wise flame]

Gotta be postgame

[green crater]

Yeah, but is it "post main story" or "post forgo dreams"

[wise flame]

Gotta be after main story at least

[acoustic sage]

Ideally post-F.D./U.C.Z., but realistically post-main story

Honestly if there was nothing related to The Ultimate Cup Z, that would REALLY suck

Especially since it's been so long as well

I feel like the amount of people who already own and have beaten Forgotten land is going to outweigh those buying it for the first time by a good margin

Like it's already the most successful Kirby game

Anyone who wasn't sold to begin with probably won't change their minds with this

I do wonder if The Ultimate Cup Star or whatever the hell they'll call it will also have an exclusive boss

[wise flame]

Galacta Knight

Dude's not even going to be story relevant but somehow he'll show up HERE

[acoustic sage]

Imagine if it takes place in the RTDL true arena battlefield

[wise flame]

Like come on man, for like nearly every time we fight this guy, there's always CRYSTALS involved

[acoustic sage]

Or whatever that was

Is it meant to be Halcandra or something?

[reef patrol]

Imagine you fight him at the new hub world and it looks exactly like his ssu arena

I hc that gk fashioned the vertical slit and horns on his mask and four pointed star on his shield because of a previous encounter he had with the starries and was intrigued/enamoured by them

[green crater]

I think it would be deeply, deeply, funny if the extra stuff releases and there's no correlation to Galacta Knight at all, and then we get an interview where Kuma is like "yeah we did that to mess with everyone"

[reef patrol]

Oh yeah it would be
I’d boycott the franchise

Kidding about that second point

[turbid nexus]

Honestly I do hope GK in there as a secret boss at least
Like don’t even explain his appearance just have him be there with a new crystal form because it would be cool lol

[green crater]

I just enjoy imagining that the staff is plugged into the fandom enough to know how to push our buttons like that

[acoustic sage]

What if big rig returned

An obvious place to put it would be a hypothetical "Discovera City" stage, and let us actually use it outside of a two-minute phase of the final boss

Have us mow down minibosses in a single hit, Royal Road 5 style

Zerbie?

[wise flame]

Hypothetical Scenario

Kirby and co. have finally taken down the entity in charge of the crystal invasion. They are now sent on a side quest to take care of a new problem.
The entity, or perhaps a close affiliate, turns out to have one final trick up their sleeve, a large crystal of unfathomable power
Their attempts of using it has failed, no thanks to Kirby's intervention. Regardless, the crystal cracks open, soon bursting out something... or someone.
A familiar butterfly flutters down curiously towards the individual shrouded by the glitter.
For no reason in particular, the individual slices the butterfly apart, its embers soon merge with the now apparent threat, the spark neccessary to revitalize it...
It soon steps out of the dust and glitter, a black pair of wings soon sprout from it...

https://tenor.com/view/aeon-hero-galacta-knight-transformation-magical-girl-kirby-gif-24599824

-# THERE'S NO DARK GIF?!

-# Way to undercut the hypothetical, TENOR!!!

[acoustic sage]

Why have there been so many hypotheticals about Galacta cleaving Morpho in twixt

[wise flame]

Listen it's badass

Who cares if it contradicts with the lore

[green crater]

Because Morpho absorbing Galacta in the first place was a twist, and now it's expected. So setting it up like that again and subverting it would again be a twist

Also

dust and glitter
should be a band name

[acoustic sage]

It's only had two confirmed kills so far, now seems a bit early to be subverting that

[wise flame]

IDK if Galacta asked for it or if Morpho is just a predatory being

[acoustic sage]

I think it's like Galacta at least subconsciously wanted it

The butterfly listened to his "cries for life", Or however that pause description went

[green crater]

If nothing else, the Star Allies absorption had heart particles, whereas the Forgo one did not. But it's hard to say if that Means Something or if it's just because Star Allies was loads of hearts in general

[acoustic sage]

I didn't know that

[wise flame]

IDK if SCW is gonna even have a dream realm

Only in hypotheticals or "dreams" is the butterfly inexplicably empowered

[acoustic sage]

Uhhhhhh

Okay

[wise flame]

(Altho tbh Morpho's only had 2 appearances compared to Galacta's 5-ish appearances, so killing them off this early into their game life seems... idk)

[twin fog]

Galacta Knight was on his third appearance in Robobot when everyone got super pissed about him showing up all the time

[wise flame]

So yeah Morpho won't be long for this world

[vagrant hound]

I wonder what Morpho tastes like

[green crater]

Orange cream

[vagrant hound]

Mmmmm delicious

[twin fog]

a sweet hot sauce

except you were hoping it was siracha

[vagrant hound]

[twin fog]

but its like chili jam or something cringe

[wise flame]

Morpho tastes like spicy sunflower seeds

[random tendon]

[vagrant hound]

Yeah I wonder what Bandee’s bandana tastes like

[ocean ingot]

I'm getting tired of SCW speculation...
ooh funny emblem with a heart shape, single eye, and two pronged horns

[crude summit]

I kinda lost the plot

[random tendon]

HIIIIIIIIIII omg I'm so glad I'm not the only one who does that sometimes. once I woke up in the middle of the night to see my friend drew some really really awesome stuff for me (and then immediately passed out again) and I was convinced it was a dream when I woke up for real in the morning 😭

[ocean ingot]

Real 🔥

[crude summit]

IT'S REAL TWICE and basically it's so awesome

[crude summit]

wtf why wasn't yours pinned. I am cringe

[vagrant hound]

Crystalor was chasing me in my dreams

[crude summit]

😟

[vagrant hound]

You’re next

[crude summit]

😨

[tardy mortar]

it occured to me we might get Blizzard Bridge remix

It fills me with excitement

[wild rune]

Defeat Twin Crystal Frosty no damage

[tardy mortar]

hehehehe

()

[forest shell]

Omg

I’m am excited

I’m am LMAO

[twin fog]

Wait I just had a realization

With how they're adding new figures of base-game stuff too in the EX volumes

maybe we could get a figure of chaos elfilis's core this time

[toxic delta]

yeah, I'm mostly hoping for one of the thought enemies personally lmao

don't even have English term for them

[twin fog]

Oh yea true
What gave them a name in JP

[toxic delta]

guidebook

[twin fog]

Ah

[toxic delta]

oh right more specifically it was 念獣 ('thought beasts')
from page 286

but it's not really a super formal name or anything

but come on if we're getting stuff for the crystal enemies we should get something for these lmao

[twin fog]

Well maybe its Forgo's Thought Beasts in full

[toxic delta]

yeah

[twin fog]

Funny 思念獣 Soul Forgo vs 極楽念獣 Morpho Knight attack vs 念獣 enemies

[toxic delta]

can't wait to get a Soul Forgo figure too lmao (what would they even say for it)

[twin fog]

Considering how they localized the spring-mouth description with no regard for consistency with other translations in the game it'd be funny if they didn't change 思念 to Psychic powers like they did in all the base game text this time

[acoustic sage]

WiKirby calls them "Phantom creatures"

Though honestly I think "forgo" or "psychic" would fit better given "phantom" also refers to the phantom bosses, which are very clearly a different thing

These just appear to be regular animals that have been possessed, rather than being created out of psychic energy

[toxic delta]

I mean we also don't document their names or anything rn
(also that's only used on Big-Rig Mouth-related pages, we have no idea what's going on with them there anyway lmao)

[acoustic sage]

Yeah it's more of a conjectural suffix

[toxic delta]

why are y'all here

[acoustic sage]

What if a walrus knocked on your door

[twin fog]

Considering the fact that they're referred to as 'Forgo's Thought Beasts' being pretty weird as well it'd be hilarious if it turns out they're not enemies possessed by Leon's soul in forgo dreams and are just enemies made of Forgo's thoughts this entire time

[toxic delta]

then what the hell are all the other enemies in Forgo Dreams

[forest shell]

They fucking smokey

[twin fog]

idk random guys he ate in the past? Though that would make it weird how elfilin and leongar got like 'bubbled' when they entered him but not the regular enemies

[acoustic sage]

Maybe they specifically bubbled them out of importance

[shut pendant]

did you know: the reason keeby is yellow is because is he he is is he actually is is he is actually bart simpson bartholomew jo-jo "bart" simpson

[shut pendant]

shit this is not kirby kingdom

damn it that's the second time i was in the wrong chat how does this keep happening

uhhh how can i make this about forogtten land

THIS IS ACTUALLY PART OF MY THEORY THAT FORGOTTEN LAND NINTENDO SWITCH 2 EDITION WILL HAVE MORE STUFF TO UNLOCK IN WADDLE DEE TOWN

THE STARRIES THAT YOU SAVE ARE GONNA UNLOCK MORE BUILDINGS JUST LIKE THE WADDLE DEES AND ONE WILL INCLUDE A NEW SUB-GAME WHERE MULTIPLE KIRBYS CAN PLAY INCLUDING KEEBY

[toxic delta]

nah they'll finally make Spray Paints real

[shut pendant]

yeah that is actually kinda possibly (except the keeby part that probably wont happen)

[acoustic sage]

There now it's relevant

[shut pendant]

but yeah we don't know what the saved starries will actually do yet so i think they actually could unlock stuff in waddle dee town

[shut pendant]

CRYSTAL BART

[toxic delta]

pretty sure it will moreso have to do with the volcano, since it seems to be another hub

still hoping they make constellations too

[shut pendant]

true

now that i think about it we really haven't seen much at all about this game

like SCOTTISH DEE

https://tenor.com/view/kirby-bandana-dee-star-crossed-world-switch-2-bandana-waddle-dee-gif-11625975310295377661

[vital lodge]

The fact it was missing in the base game could have given us a hint DLC was inevitably coming. It was strange

[sudden mirage]

You can buy spray paints with the new currency. Trust me on this one

[tardy mortar]

what if

we get Tilt 'n' Roll EX

[vital lodge]

Playing as Blue Kirby in a mainline game and 3D environment as Player 1...

[tardy mortar]

i'm sorry

[random tendon]

oh my god

[tardy mortar]

it requires drum 'n bass music at this point

[turbid nexus]

I feel like it’s mainly because the core is meant to be mysterious

[acoustic sage]

Maybe also because you can only get the Chaos Elfilis figure after beating the Ultimate Cup Z

[vital lodge]

There's a figure for everything in the game

[toxic delta]

also just bit of a consequence of multiple phases not having descriptions anymore with the figures
Chaos Elfilis just has the most unique form difference so it's noticeable with it

[vital lodge]

it was odd not seeing the Core, I understand it being mysterious, could have given it a vague description then

[toxic delta]

as we were talking about earlier, not true

thought beast enemies don't, Soul Forgo doesn't

[random tendon]

I'm glad this is finally a figure

[toxic delta]

for more minor ones, there's also the 2 types of birds that never got one (despite crabs, lizards, and fish getting them)

butterflies don't at all either (not counting Morpho Knight itself)

[vital lodge]

Doubt the birds are getting an EX figure

But butterflies, Soul Forgo and the Core could be possible

[random tendon]

why not the birds?

[vital lodge]

Well I mean, they're not that special

Unless they can also absorb souls like the butterflies do

[shut pendant]

wonder what other specific "scenarios" they could make figures of

like idk kirby catching a piece of trash in flash fishing

or an awoofy squished by stairs mouth

[vital lodge]

A miniature Waddle Dee Town figure

[toxic delta]

too powerful for a figure, clearly....

[random tendon]

these aren't special either and have figures

[shut pendant]

PEAK

[toxic delta]

don't forget everyone's favorite, lizard

[shut pendant]

EXCUSE ME? CRAB IS VERY SPECIAL

[toxic delta]

also worth noting Crab and Fish maybe it into RtDL DX too lmao

[acoustic sage]

I think they mean EX figures specifically

[vital lodge]

But are the birds worthy of EX figures is the question

[toxic delta]

I mean coins are

[random tendon]

friend

I don't get why not EX figures

[toxic delta]

and crystals

[random tendon]

there is nothing saying EX figures are more important than others (and like I said, they need 1 star figures)

[shut pendant]

they will make a figure of the hammer super jump

maybe there will be a figure of kirby jumping, hovering, sliding, and guarding

a figure of every single copy ability attack

[toxic delta]

and flowers

[vital lodge]

This is the new stuff, though, so it fits being an EX figure. Well, it's useless to speculate, we'll just have to wait and see

[toxic delta]

I mean even Max Waddle Dees I wouldn't call special

the description barely says much important (other than wanya)

[shut pendant]

i think it's fun to speculate

[vital lodge]

they're kinda the objective of the main game

[shut pendant]

we haven't been able to speculate about an upcoming kirby game in over 2 years

[vital lodge]

mfw the birds get an EX figure and a description too

[random tendon]

the sad thing is that localization will likely change the wanya :(

[toxic delta]

oh right we also need the most important character to get a figure
Phantom Handmade Dance Partner

[random tendon]

TRUE

[toxic delta]

how many people have even noticed that this is different from normal variation lmao

I just realized Mr. Sandbag doesn't have a figure :(

they should fix that

[shut pendant]

GIVE HIM A FIGURE

[random tendon]

tragedy

[shut pendant]

they should make figures of the hal rooms and have the description hint and how to get to them

[acoustic sage]

Oh yeah do you think this will feature any new HAL rooms?

[random tendon]

probably at least one

can't wait for Secret Area: HAL Room 3

[acoustic sage]

3D Dream Hatcher figurine

It's revealed that its Wondog and Wondy's parent

Don't ask about the third egg

[vagrant hound]

Hat Studio blanket spotted

[toxic delta]

what about Fecto Elfilis's Core (with Elfilin trapped in it)

[random tendon]

wait

antares should get one

[toxic delta]

could more clearly state what happened to Elfilin while he was stuck lmao

[toxic delta]

true

or at least mention the name somewhere

[random tendon]

still funny that was only named in guidebook lol

[turbid nexus]

Character specific weapons with names my beloved

[twin fog]

Why do you think butterflies are important enough for a figure but not birds

[toxic delta]

tbf we also have stuff like moves only being named in there too lol
I yearn for the day boss moves are said ingame

[random tendon]

so true

[toxic delta]

though they would probably fuck them up in English somehow lmao

[vagrant hound]

I need this irl

[twin fog]

Kuma find an excuse to name boss attacks in-game and my soul is yours

[vagrant hound]

Won’t happen but premium statue along with some others please and thank you

[random tendon]

still waiting for bandee evo where he uses antares

[toxic delta]

put a bestiary in next game, totally would be good place to put them in

[random tendon]

please kuma you know it will be peak fiction

[vagrant hound]

Bandee evo (suddenly he uses parasol)

[random tendon]

I would take it soleley for parasol in FL LOL

[vagrant hound]

Ngl it’ll go hard

[toxic delta]

too bad we're giving him an axe like

[acoustic sage]

I still don't think parasol would work that well in Forgotten Land

[toxic delta]

(the moveset will just be Cutter for some reason)

[acoustic sage]

I know there's Battle Royale, but you have to consider that one of the main things about parasol is that it can block attacks from above

When everything is 3D and a lot more attacks are coming from ground-level, that becomes a lot less useful

[twin fog]

its honestly not that useful in 2D either

[acoustic sage]

Still, it would be even less useful in 3D

[twin fog]

Star Allies feels like the only game where they really tried to keep parasol's 'block things from above' in mind

And also parasol literally didn't even have this feature until modern kumazaki kirby even though the ability's existed since forever

[toxic delta]

oh wait it didn't? know it damaged enemies at least
or do you mean it just did more in modern games (like with Kracko)

[twin fog]

Like yea technically the parasol always had a hitbox so like things that could take damage would struggle to land on you like enemies

Also like
Parasol literally has a mechanic where you can hold B after its attack to just keep the parasol in front of kirby but this is like

utterly useless even though it doesn't have to be

So there goes your supposed problem of 'well parasol can't block things above in 3D games where almost nothing comes from above'

It literally already has a mechanic to block things coming from the side it's just useless

(about as useless as its ability to block things from above was)

[obtuse berry]

HAL just gotta do more parasol specific levels that isn't coconut bomb spam

Or those vertical falling ones where drifting down is a waste of time & the shield barely matters when enemies are attacking from below

[twin fog]

Remember when Star Allies wasn't out we were all waiting to see how they would use Bluster Bomb's hot air balloon thing and then there were just like 0 levels that used it

Bluster Bomb's hot air balloon thing really just be parasol's fall 2 but they didn't even use it

[shut pendant]

and then bluster bomb became the most broken ability in the game somehow

[twin fog]

me when I can spawn bombs as fast as I can mash

[shut pendant]

me when i for some reason still can't do the exploit well

[ocean ingot]

Sounds fun, especially with the homing snowmen

[fading tartan]

i think id destroy my switch if that was a mission /J

DONT MAKE ME DO TWIN FLOSTY AGAIN....

[late girder]

Got it. The mission will be to defeat the Frosty Triplets without damage.

[languid cobalt]

Have we ever had a trio mid boss?

Or are they too afraid of morpho sword

[forest shell]

Me when the quadruplets appear

[shut pendant]

i found more footage that cuts off right as they beat the level and don't show the figures 😭

i even watched them get a figure so they may have gotten more than just 1 which would be spring mouth

but now it's... lost media

this is what the pause menu looks like in the switch 2 experience demo looks like in case anyone cares

[vital lodge]

"General Settings" show me that Performance/Quality mode setting...

[shut pendant]

...more footage of someone beating the stage but not showing the collected figures

[shut pendant]

pretty sure that says control settings

[vital lodge]

oh okay

[shut pendant]

it's just a bit blurry lol

[twin fog]

also the game runs at 1440p 60fps according to treehouse there is no performance/quality to thhat

what are they gonna do run the game at 720p 120fps for a performance mode?

[vital lodge]

hey, they can still change their mind

1080p 120fps

that would be crazy

[shut pendant]

OH YOU HAVE GOTTA BE KIDDING ME

I FOUND FOOTAGE OF SOMEONE WHO BEAT THE STAGE AND STARTED OPENING FIGURES

BUT THEY MOVE THE CAMERA AWAY BEFORE THEY GET TO THE SECOND ONE

[random tendon]

[shut pendant]

HOW DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING

[vital lodge]

it's gotta be on purpose

like the Nintendo guys tell them "stop the recording now"

[shut pendant]

this is like the 10th time this happened at this point

[fading tartan]

I KEEP FORGETTING YOURE A MOD HERE 😭

[shut pendant]

either they cut away before they open more figures or they just don't show it at all

[random tendon]

typman jumpscare

[twin fog]

Typman got bullied into becoming a mod here

[fading tartan]

also ..kinda? the blizzard bridge ex path

[sudden mirage]

What if he split up into 5 instead

[random tendon]

https://tenor.com/view/well-i-dont-know-pause-thought-hmm-gif-16786014

[shut pendant]

found gamescage's video and he didn't show the figures but he already showed the starryflower one on twitter so it's fine

[fading tartan]

you fight one mr frosty then after that ones defeated two more spawn

[random tendon]

three mage sisters

[fading tartan]

btw i was never able to do that without taking damage, does the mission only account for the twin frosties or does it also count the triplet that comes before them?

latter would be messed up

[twin fog]

Trio? ✅
Bosses? ✅
Mid? ✅
trio mid boss

[fading tartan]

something ...or someone.

[vagrant hound]

ermmmmm three mage isnt mid boss /lh

they're girlbosses

[languid cobalt]

No wonder susie hates fran, shes a threat to her girl boss reputation

[shrewd oracle]

Bothers me so much

[shut pendant]

ermm they obviously changed the spring mouth description to show that it's not a figure from the original game

(i hate it)

[twin fog]

Must pretend its just Unique Because Its DLC yep

Definitely not just b/c they forgot to keep it consistent

[fading tartan]

oh yea im so glad that morpho is canon now but SOUL FORGO COULDVE BEEN SO GOOD AND THAT STUPID BUTTERFLY RUINED EVERYTHING!!!!

SLASH JOKE im not that mad abiut it but

soul forgo couldve been very interesting...

[glad path]

I'm more curious about the scrapped larva fight
How would that have worked

Would it have been like
Heart of Nova but biological?

[fading tartan]

scrapped larva fight?

[glad path]

honestly, between void's innards and Forgo, I genuinely think Kumazaki wants to do at least one level made entirely of flesh

[acoustic sage]

Imagine if they showed Elfilin's character growth by having him land the final hit

Forgo tries to grab him once again, but he dodges them and does some portal-related attack

[shut pendant]

The Ultimate Cup ZX will have a soul forgo fight don't worry

[acoustic sage]

The Ultimate Cup Z-A

[shut pendant]

omg

[vagrant hound]

omg kirby x pokemon real

[shrewd oracle]

Only roughneck in the game

Besides the battle facility ones

[fading tartan]

i completely forgot we're gonna get another colosseum cup

the star crossed cup...

do you think the dlc bosses will be on par with the base games difficulty or harder?

i hope harder

[shut pendant]

same

[acoustic sage]

I mean the regular enemies and minibosses have already been souped-up

I'm predicting at least phantom-boss levels

[shrewd oracle]

Harder than base game for sure at least

Wouldn't make much sense for the campaign to be remixed versions of the base levels and have the bosses be just as easy

[shut pendant]

no i think it will be easier actually

[acoustic sage]

I thought that said "just as sexy"

[shrewd oracle]

I guess some people might like the wild beard look

[fading tartan]

super excited for crystal wild edge/bonkers...

[ocean ingot]

This image sums up the Kirby community after Star-Crossed World was announced

[fading tartan]

BAHAHAHAH

also thats moot...

[vagrant hound]

Remember back when TDX was revealed and Taranza was revealed, people thought he was blood-related to Magolor

Idk why but the whole Starries and Galacta Knight reminded me of it

[languid cobalt]

I mean, we actually have build up for galacta knight here

If elfilis got out, whats stopping him

[uneven matrix]

kirby and the amazing mirror

[turbid nexus]

The lack of a workforce and loyal subjects

Not to mention being imprisoned in a crystal and being stuck on a life support machine that you can probably break out of at anytime at the cost of your own body melting due to being unable to hold itself together is kinda different

That being said Galacta did break out before his fight in RtDL soooooooooooo

[tawny moth]

i mean galacta had a solid form

elfilis very much didnt while elfilin was seperated

[green crater]

That Magolor painting in TDX is just so funny. Like bro, why you here? for the reference, but yeah lol

[twin fog]

i will always headcanon that the people of the sky taught magolor magic

or rather taranza specifically or something

[vagrant hound]

I will forever headcanon Magolor tried to murder Sectonia

Sorry pal, Sectonia died

I despise Sectonia x Magolor /hj

[languid cobalt]

Thats a ship?

[turbid nexus]

I didn’t even know a ship like that existed but you learn something new everyday I guess

[green crater]

I like thinking of them as old college buddies, so I guess similar to Faye's but I just picture them going to school together lol

[winter widget]

my shitty hc is Taranza is secretly one of the shereholders of merry magoland so that's why that painting is there

[languid cobalt]

Would also explain the mask

[ocean ingot]

Old Friend mask isn't referring to Taranza's old friend but Magolor's Old Friend, Sectonia

[vagrant hound]

Yeah, it’s actual ship that exist lol

It’s mostly like “Yeah Taranza I’m dating your crush”

Poor Taranza become poorer

[acoustic sage]

https://tenor.com/view/minecraft-movie-flint-and-steel-gif-4491320584761369279

He didn't make that mask as a sick joke

He was mourning her too

[languid cobalt]

Why am i not surprised

[broken void]

I imagine the ship made more sense when magolor and sectonia were the only 2 modern final bosses lol

[tacit saffron]

2014

but then everything changed when came through the door and said

[vagrant hound]

Susie and Magolor shipper and Susie and Taranza shipper war of 2016-2019

[broken void]

the fransoos shipping of the SA pre-release era was fire

[green crater]

Magolor and the Lor theoretically being able to time travel via AD means Magolor could go back in time, date spider Sectonia, end up with his painting on the wall, and then go back to the future with Taranza none the wiser

[languid cobalt]

And then the fransusie vs franberge war began

[tacit saffron]

"This ship is now mine and this love triangle sign!"

[languid cobalt]

Option 3

polygamy

[vagrant hound]

Magolor with charisma

[turbid nexus]

Looking at Francisca fanart with Susie before the other two mages came into existence was so funny lol

[grave fractal]

https://tenor.com/view/marvel-fan4stic-fantastic-four-the-thing-say-that-again-gif-9345984830195785978

and then they go back WHEN´?

This is heavy

[coarse arrow]

https://tenor.com/view/aga-gif-22417045

[vagrant hound]

Magolor does this just to piss off Taranza

[turbid nexus]

https://tenor.com/view/water-bad-writing-shit-writing-cringe-water-writing-gif-3155912112861400309

[coarse arrow]

"It was me Taranza!"

[vagrant hound]

Magolor caused everything

[random tendon]

https://tenor.com/view/well-i-dont-know-pause-thought-hmm-gif-16786014

[vagrant hound]

He blew spring breeze using Lor’s mast storm and told King Dedede that stealing is good thing

[tacit saffron]

Magolor is the real mastermind behind everything via this logic

[shut pendant]

it also means he could go back in time to the events of kirby and the forgotten land and create a parallel timeline where a large crystal meteor from another dimension crashed into the new world
...

[vagrant hound]

Magolor forcefully woke up Nightmare and told King Dedede that Nightmare is back so he can cause action

Magolor give Dark Matter an tour to Pop Star which made them want that planet more

Magolor told Meta Knight that Dream Landians are being lazy and he has the power to change that

[coarse arrow]

This quickly turned into Doctor Who-golor

[vagrant hound]

He also told Kirby to go on adventure and he’s the one who dug the hole to Majirute

Magolor told Marx about Nova

Magolor disguised himself as Dyna baby and forced Dyna Blade to get more food

Magolor give Taranza the Dimension Mirror to give to Sectonia as a gift

Because he’s the one who summoned Dark Mind

So he knew about the Mirror World

By using Lor, he was able to unstablize the dimensional rift, causing the connection between New World and Pop Star to happen 100%, because he’s the one who helped capture Fecto- okay I’ll stop

Basically, Magolor will be in SCW, he’s the mastermind, watch your back, because he might be following Kirby the entire time in KFL

[turbid nexus]

[crude summit]

LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[late girder]

[arctic gale]

[spiral void]

oh these are incredible 🥹

[signal garnet]

I love how everyone goes "galacta would cut the butterfly apart!" out of sheer spite
When like
He was the reason the butterfly showed up in the first place

If anything the most realistic outcome is that he'd let it happen again

Esp if it was supposedly a galacta knight from a slightly earlier point in time

[green crater]

I'll say again

Team up fight

No I don't care how that would work. It would just be cool

[signal garnet]

If people like galacta knight because he's a stereotype of "badass", then clearly Hal should create a character that's more badass than him :circus:

[vagrant hound]

Galacta Knight eats butterfly

[turbid nexus]

Counterpoint: It would be cool

Though honestly I’d prefer a team up fight like Yirrg said

[winter widget]

I actually want more Kirby cafe lore in the new dlc /srs

Can we have like Soul Melter Ex in the cafe gag and the customers are just all bosses + new bosses in the dlc

[acoustic sage]

If anything that would make way more sense for Fecto Forgo

If they ever SOMEHOW came back

[signal garnet]

The kirby fandom unironically:
https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/RuleOfCool

lol

[acoustic sage]

Have them consume it and flip the script by then transforming into a forgofied version of Morpho Knight with goo wings and crap

[signal garnet]

wait that's actually fire

[winter widget]

like
we have wanya wanya maximum warp star figurine
i feel like the cafe gag has some potential

can you imagine disappointed customer wanya figurine

[acoustic sage]

Exasperated and tired Kirby figure

[signal garnet]

honestly it's kinda funny
since im reading a lot of kirby forums like reddit and they're saying galacta knight is their fave character
but they will readily admit that they would have him do something that they themselves would consider to directly contradict his character if it was "badass"
they say he's their favorite character but are ignoring his character for the sake of making him a basass machine.

they gave him the sans treatment.
the power of fandom even managed to flanderize galacta knight somehow lmao

they'd say he's a dinosaur that eats force field dogs if it was most "badass" possible option even if it directly contradicted what he did earlier /reference

[signal garnet]

fuck having that ingame

i would

BUY that with real money

honestly the figures are such an easy merchandising oppertunity

[sterile quartz]

hey chat

thoughts on this https://www.reddit.com/r/Kirby/comments/1k09uxw/apparently_galacta_has_the_world_crossing_a_lot/

[pastel jungle]

oh the super kirby clash news post

i mean idk just feels like a stretch to me ngl if they're implying its a hint towards him being in the dlc specifically

[sterile quartz]

fair

btw i realized something

whoever the final boss of scw is

whatever it is

i dont expect it to be AS massive of a lore reveal

as Elfilis was

i dont think there's any way they're topping "here's the person responsible for the franchise" (probably)

im more expecting a cool well designed and hype endgame (as usual for kirby)

[toxic delta]

yeah, and it isn't really specific to it anyway (hell, even beyond GK, Another Dimension in general has these kinds of things going on)
and we haven't really seen any reused words from it here either either (not counting 世界 which is pretty common and was already used in base FL (different from DLC title one too))

[pastel jungle]

i expect something like Crystal King Starry - The Star-Crossed Wanderer or something

[toxic delta]

currently guessing Crystal Carol for pre-final boss, then something original for final

if GK is anywhere, I expect him to be in new Cup (RtDL (DX)-style)

[toxic delta]

oh and the word for crossing/circling (or however you want to translate it) in SKC Channel post is 巡る
same as Aeon Hero's JP name, and again he's not the only one to use it (and not the first either)
Void moments....and Twitter post about Far-Flung Starlight Heroes lmao

[sterile quartz]

i think that if boss repeats happen

they will be distinct from the phantoms

similar to how, while dooter ex and elec dooter are harder versions of the og, both are harder in different ways and have different patterns

[wise flame]

One concern I have with SCW (aside from potential length) are the bosses

Is this gonna be a HIAD/Epilogue situation?

[sterile quartz]

i mean i think it will at least partially be so

but hopefully leaning closer to magologue

because if it's an HIAD scenario the bosses would just be the phantoms but kaizo mania

with the elemental variants they WERE divergent from their extra mode counterparts (and some like crown doomer were basically new fights)

[wise flame]

Although, if speculation/assumption/pattern recognition is true... perhaps we won't be getting Phantom EX bosses or something like that...

[sterile quartz]

wdym

[wise flame]

It's still too darn early to say, but judging by the total Starry count for the 1st and 3rd world, it seems like only 2 levels per world would be remixed.
And of course the standard "world" formula dictates that after every 4 levels, there is a boss level.

If SCW follows this, then that means we probably wouldn't be fighting Crystal versions of prior major bosses...

...Or may not all of them??

Very hard to say, as every "fourth" level seems to be in worlds where Kirby fights a non-beast pack boss (W2, W4, W6)...

Anyways uh

Ok so every weird blue rock is just heart shaped?

[toxic delta]

tbf that doesn't mean much when we haven't seen counts for second stages
and boss stages could just have none (or even just be part of second stages)

it's basically near completely up in the air rn

[wise flame]

Yeah we gotta... wait a while

[lean grove]

they're still hiding something rather large

i believe its not a coincidence that they stopped the Crossing Wondaria demonstration after the midboss

it must have some twist even as its the first level of its world

[toxic delta]

think they're hiding several 'large' things, really (at least partially)

[sterile quartz]

ehh it could also be two per world and then remixed boss

[sterile quartz]

yeah

[sterile quartz]

exactly

[warm briar]

Any theories on what it could be?

[muted hawk]

Probably terralized enemies

[warm briar]

Probably 🤔

[vagrant hound]

Crystalized Jamba Heart that Forgo Dedede brought to Fecto Forgo

[muted hawk]

Maybe the dlc would have lore for that

[torn vapor]

Ok fellas, I have no basis for this but like IMAGINE…

we got to meet Neichel in the Star Crossed World…👀

X · Apr 15, 2025, 10:22 PM

Imagine if we do meet neichel but its not on friendly terms

Like neichel somehow got into an accident with fecto forgo or smth

[shut pendant]

obviously star-crossed world will have true arena magolor soul instead of galacta knight

[sudden oracle]

Who is Neichel?

Ohhh

I just looked her up on WiKirby

[vagrant hound]

Singing battle with Neichel (Mike Kirby/Speaker Mouthful ends her eardrum)

[signal garnet]

it'd be funny if we got a boss that would surrender their boss fight if kirby had mike and they somehow had low enough health for mike to kill them

no one wants to listen to that

[violet gorge]

I had a dream the other night we got more dlc footage and that we got a new mouthful mode

It was a giant toothpick lol

[signal garnet]

bro...

[violet gorge]

Who is this and what are they from

[signal garnet]

Chii Shirobakama from the touhou fangame hollow song of birds
she's a toothpick tsukomagami that came into existence aftee a toothpick was left alone for 100 years, and her take on the concept is like a little swordsman that uses a toothpick as a sword and has the ability to turn other toothpicks into clones of herself but they have "they all share hp" syndrome so it just makes her piss easy

[violet gorge]

A tooth pick that was left alone for 100 years

[signal garnet]

you know now that i think about it by touhou logic most of the stuff in the new world would've become tsukumogami

spring mouth tsukumogami

[violet gorge]

A complete society of left over objects

[twin fog]

by touhou logic all the youkai and gods would've died as the populace was too into science and abandoned spiritualism and mysticism

Actually on second thought forgo would probably create enough faith for youkai all on his own

[vital lodge]

No way a regular human but corrupted is going to be a bigger threat than Chaos Elfilis...

[errant plank]

Me when the stars are crossed

Like three quotes foreshadowing Galacta Knight’s return

Read 5 years ago

[forest shell]

Would be peak

Imagine GK’s title is “Star-Crossed Dimensional Hero Warrior”

[signal garnet]

true honestly

forgo must've been surreal

there

honestly didn't appear to be much surreal on the new world

all the environments are normal

all the life forms are normal

all the animals seemed to evolve from normal animals

[boreal bramble]

Does the forgotten land data carry over to star crossed world or do we need to play the original story first?

[random tendon]

you can transfer save data like you can with all switch games

[acoustic sage]

Actually now I'm wondering what life was like for the Beast Pack pre-Forgo

Were they still trying to make their way to Dream Land?

[green crater]

There's that one dialogue from Elfilin saying everyone was just all friends or whatever back then

So I personally assume "seek a land of dreams" was something Forgo planted in Leon

[turbid nexus]

Yeah
The Beast Pack wasn’t actually formed as an organization until Leongar went nuts
That’s when everyone went "wild"

[acoustic sage]

Wonder how they even met Forgo then

Was Leongar just exploring Redgar when he found the elevator to Lab Discovera?

Funny how they both end with "gar"

Was that intentional?

Feels like it

[tepid burrow]

Ok now people are being nuts, People think that the “someone” Is Neichel on Twitter

[vagrant hound]

Honestly I don’t blame em

[green crater]

Makes as much sense as anything else

[arctic gale]

Neichel final boss...

The battle is a drum dash to welcome to the new world

[acoustic sage]

🦁 "Rrrowm (Guys I found this big underground facility, I'm gonna check it out)"
🐱 "Mew (Okay have fun honey)"

🦁 "WE NEED TO GET TO DREAM LAND, START KIDNAPPING THOSE ORANGE MONKEY THINGS THAT STARTED SHOWING UP!!!"

[turbid nexus]

That’s how I imagined it honestly

[wise flame]

🦁 : What a lovely day to live once more. I can finally spend some actual time with her now... Oh and there she is!

🐱 💦 : Mrrp! Mreow, M-

🌠 💥 🎇

✨💎🦁 : Carol, your beauty has been held back for too long. Join me and together we can shatter the furry shackles that inhibit our ultimate form!

🐱 : 😐

BTW Discord has no crystal emotes, just a stupid ball

[twin fog]

💎 Funny diamond only

[wise flame]

shit

[acoustic sage]

What does the water emoji mean

[wise flame]

sweat

[acoustic sage]

Why is she sweating

https://tenor.com/view/dn-death-note-light-staring-gif-21858423

[wise flame]

THE FUCKING METEORS BROOOOO

[acoustic sage]

Oh

[signal garnet]

honestly i was wondering how leon knew about the people before him and what they did
but now that i think about it forgo probably told him

[signal garnet]

if i recall correctly leongar is called that because it has part of forgo's name in it

is redgar forbidden lands the same way in japanese?

[wise flame]

I do wonder if the crystals are possessing things or if they merely amplify oneself...

[ocean ingot]

Leongar's name is actually Leon, the gar part is only used when he was under influence of Forgo

[lean grove]

his name in JP is Leongarf

I assume they changed in English to avoid silly comparisons to a comic strip cat

[signal garnet]

ok yeah

it was a reference to forgo's name that got lost in translation

Doc Robot moment(?)

[heady ravine]

leongarf

[ocean ingot]

Star Crossed World story leak /j

[tribal igloo]

OOOOOOO....

LORE LORE LORE

I WANNA PLAY THE DLC NOWWWWW!!!!

Man😭

[errant plank]

I’ve heard someone say it could be a play on Midgar from FFVII given how industrial it is but they don’t use the same Hiragana characters so it’s unlikely

Insane how you can be hyper-specific and extremely vague with with just a few character changes in Japanese

[high widget]

Leongo

[ocean ingot]

Legogar

[glad path]

They both get horrifically warped by an external force

[vestal briar]

Are there Waddle Doos on board

[robust tundra]

yes

[ocean ingot]

I made a little thing :3

[signal garnet]

Ooh cool man

[vagrant hound]

Regall jumpscare

[hushed root]

very cool

[lucid minnow]

yo that looks great

[heady ravine]

this is insane

that looks so good and i want one

[vestal briar]

Wake me up when Waddle Doo is confirmed in either Star-Crossed or Air Fryer

[shut pendant]

do not air fry the waddle doo it is very bad for him

[vestal briar]

You got me worried that they already sell merch for unreleased game

[signal garnet]

Conversely, he might get a lot of static and improve his electricity attack

[ocean ingot]

I haven't seen anyone point it out yet to my knowledge, but Astrodee has one of those crystal shapes atop his hat

And it moves with him, so it isn't something the the background

[green crater]

I've seen at least some people draw them with a crystal on the hat

Personally I kinda wonder if maybe it's part of the telescope they're carrying

[sterile quartz]

ehh the angle looks off

[random tendon]

it looks like the telescope to me

[sterile quartz]

no the star looks a bit too high to be attached

though it's not possible to tell from this angle

[arctic gale]

Can we see it in the gacha figure picture?

Hummmm

[random tendon]

also I guess it makes sense to repost my theory from a while ago...

mostly think this too because the crystal here is too similar to the fallen crystals

[random tendon]

it's hard to tell but I don't think I see the crystal here at the top of the hat

[sand patrol]

could also just be they wanted to design him to fit the theme

[random tendon]

kirby fans looking at the tiny blurry image at the table:

[vagrant hound]

I love analyzing Pixel

[turbid nexus]

https://tenor.com/view/spy-kids-lemme-zoom-in-on-that-zoom-watching-you-spy-gif-5212510

[ocean ingot]

Actually, from what I can tell from this, you can see his little telescope backpack move independently from the little hat bauble
(warning, 25% speed, so sound is a little grating)

[sand patrol]

yea?

[sterile quartz]

hey

if there is a 4th cup, what is the predictions on what the final superboss would be

[sand patrol]

fecto elfilis

2

[sterile quartz]

wouldnt it be fecto 3

because of chaos-elfilis

also part of me hopes it ISNT elfilis again because

well
elfilis is gone

finito

deleted

eh got absorbed already

[sand patrol]

its gunna be someone original anyways

and i mean ORIGINAL
