HAPPY 34TH BIRTHDAY KIRBY!!!!!
Kirby is a game series that defined my late childhood and tweenhood. Way back in 2018/2019, I was getting recommended and watched A LOT of all bosses vids on mostly every game released up to that point, including the then-recent Star Allies. Ever since then, I was HOOKED! If I had to pick something out of the "Big 4" of Nintendo series, other than Pokemon, I'd DEFINITELY go for this one. Cutesy style and marketing that masks full-blown horror stories and obscene amounts of lore while also not venturing TOO far from said style? Oh you bet your sweet BUTT I'm on board!!!
This obsession then went dormant for a few years until 2022, with the release of Forgotten Land, or as I like to call it, my all-time favorite Kirby game ๐ฉท (that I've played atleast). I could gush about that game all-day, but the point is, I've just replayed it as of recent (the Switch 1 version, I wish I had the Switch 2 DLC
), and God, did it open up lots of past memories. It made me rediscover all the lore, It made me uncover my Marx plush from 2019, it made me hooked on the characters again (and caused me to crush on some of them upon re-inspection
), it made me remember all the drawings I did for it at age 9 and 10, and mainly, it compelled me to draw this, and share it all with you 
I love you Marx, I love you Dedede, I love you Meta Knight, I love you Galacta Knight, I love you Clawroline, I love you Sillydillo, I think about every single one that I haven't listed here to this day. 7 years later, 4 years later, it doesn't matter. Godspeed Kirby. Thank you so, so much for bringing me joy throughout my life. I hope to never forget or hate you as I get older. And Thank you for everything, Sakurai and Kumazaki. Here's to many, many more years to come๐ซถ๐ซถ๐ซถ๐ซถ๐ซถ
