Kirby of the Stars: The Story of Dedede Who Lives in Pupupu ( 星のカービィ デデデでプププなものがたり, Hoshi no Kirby: Dedede de Pupupu na Monogatari ) is a Japanese manga series based on the video game series of the same name written and illustrated by Hirokazu Hikawa [ ja]. The series follows the adventures of Kirby and his friend Chirby, who are on a quest to return the Star Rod, the legendary treasure of Dream Land. Dedede has a picnic. Kirby drinks "loopy juice" and *drunkenly* trashes everything. Even sober, Kirby habitually eats ALL THE FOOD. There is practically no time when they just have a pleasant time without Kirby destroying something.

REVIEW: Kirby Manga Mania Is a Sweet Treat for (Young) Fans". CBR. 2021-06-23 . Retrieved 2021-09-25. Not what you’d expect, but it will not leaving you disappointed. While the Kirby brand is known for its light-hearted and comedic tone, this is the first time this series had made me laugh hard. Viz Media originally had plans to localize Kirby of the Stars: The Story of Dedede Who Lives In Pupupu into English for North America in 2009, making an announcement about the series. [2] The proposed English title was simply Kirby. For unknown reasons, these plans were quietly abandoned by 2011. Presumably, this release would have covered the complete series starting with the first 1995 volume, if it had happened.

Not_Soos You make very good points. I forgot how much ACNH outsold BotW. I would love it if a new Animal Crossing was a launch title. We will see...

Now, my brother tells me that this is likely a classic "gag" manga, but I'll be honest, if this is what goes for a gag in Japan, then I don't want to read any more. I expected the Kirby of the games, a cute pink puffball who eats things and gains their powers. Now, I've only read two stories (that was all I could stomach), but that was not the story that I was seeing.

The real protagonist of the Kirby strips, in a reversal of the dynamics of many of the franchise’s games, is King Dedede, the often-selfish, penguin-like anthropomorphic bird that serves as several games’ antagonist. In most of the strips, Dedede is more-or-less minding his own business as he was in the initial one with the picnic—perhaps he’s readying his castle for an upcoming typhoon, or playing with his toy robot pet—when Kirby enters the picture, generally causing huge problems for Dedede. Kirby generally seems to do so not necessarily out of malice, but instead out of a combination of ignorance and a readiness for instantaneous action, which, given Kirby’s inhaling powers, generally has big ramifications. It was a fun time don’t get me wrong but it was hard giving Kirby a voice in your head when in the video games he doesn’t actually speak and just makes sounds.
