He wasn't possessed in Squeak Squad. Meta Knight was trying to keep Kirby from accidentally unleashing a demon. In Robobot, he was forcefully mechanized
Yeah and he pretty much acts as Waddle Dee Town's protector while Kirby is off rescuring the still captured ones, in the completed version of the Collosium you can see him standing on top of it overlooking the town.
I didn’t see it demonstrated in this video, I just did it myself in my own fight, but I find it interesting that if you guard against one of meta knights dash attack you can remove the galaxia sword from his hand, and then he draws a sword that looks like the one he had in original Kirby’s Adventure if you can get him into the next stage before he picks it up. I love Easter eggs like that and while I have seen a few videos pointing this out I don’t think it’s gotten enough recognition yet. Just because it’s kind of rare to see meta knight with a sword that isn’t galaxia.
@@flameyboy4184 oh neat! I didn’t know that trick. That makes this even cooler. I never tried to grab his sword myself, I just focused on dealing damage and happened to move him to the next stage while his sword was dropped.
“…Kirby. I wasn’t expecting you to actually be here in this world. But- no matter the circumstances, I’m still waiting on that loss a many times. Pick up that sword! And let’s see if you still got what it takes against me.” -Meta Knight
I like how in every other Kirby game when you cut off Meta Knight's mask he has sort of a frustrated glare, but in this one he's just kinda like 0.0 "Aight Kirbster, Imma head out"
Wait a second..... Meta knight: uses sword and earth bending magic Dedede: uses hammer and lighting magic OH MY GOD, META KNIGHT AND DEDEDE ARE ORENSTEIN AND SMOUGH!
@@epicnftownerandinvestor3153 Even if Sakurai doesn't do the next one (he probably won't) it's too profitable for it to be likely for them to stop, even if it means a new director.
I was able to fight meta knight without the sword. I used the pencil drill ability and just made a circle around the sword thats on the ground and it makes the sword dissappear then starts the fight
Morpho knight is a grim reaper who essentialy puts down very old beings like galacta and forgo who have been alive a long long time. It’s also sorta like a leach like gaining their powers after their put down.
@@fortheburbsandmemes7419 and what is scary is that it's apperance before the boss looking apperance is a red butterfly that has apperared in frequent kirby games before Morpho Knight first real introduction.
I think Morpho Knight’s appearance after absorbing Galacta Knight was just a coincidence, and it’s a mutant member of Meta Knight’s species or something.
@@ghengiroo4143 Isn’t meta knight’s species also Kirby’s species or is Kirby a different thing entirely? Cause meta knight without his mask looks almost identical to Kirby really
@@bluerious5475 they’re almost definitely the same species, but since it technically hasn’t been confirmed we can’t say for certain. The 3 Knights aren’t confirmed to be the same species either, but it’s more accurate to say “Meta Knight’s species” rather than “Kirby’s species”. It’s just me being pedantic.
Absolutely NO. ONE. Will believe me, but I beat Meta Knight's first boss first try, no abilities, no damage, on wild mode (I just abused floating when necessary and attacked when necessary) But that DOES. NOT. Make this an easy fight, Meta Knight has powerful, lightning fast attacks, but they are well telegraphed, making them fair, this battle is a good kind of challenging. And the music is just... **chef's kiss** truly the icing on the cake. Easily my favorite boss so far.
If you're struggling with no damaging bosses, drill is the best bet You can safely cave in the ground under foes, the bigger the circle, the bigger the damage And drill combined with offense and speed boosts is amazing
@@pooby1474 Oh? So I’m wrong! He IS involved in the game’s plot after all! Then why is he fighting us? Can’t he just help us out?! 😝 “Meta Knight respects a knight’s code of chivalry” my butt! 😜😂 True! He honours most of it! Giving Kirby a sword before they dual each other and yes! It’s difficult for the developers to program such actions I admit! But when you’ve kicked his but and his masks breaks, he never salutes Kirby and shakes hands with him does he!? 😝 He just skedaddles! 😝
Heres the plot for meta knight as of now. When meta knight was first brought into this world his first thing he did was try to find a way to leave this world/create a pathway so everyone can get out. Infact he manage to get to as far as the snow world before Kirby even got their. However he retreated back to protect the waddle dees in town infact he’s technically the guard however his reason why is unkown perhaps it’s something to do with dedede. He fights in the collesium to improve his skills and help kirbys fighting skills “the players to be better keeping you on your toes”. Phantom meta knight was a result of the creation of meta knights fighting spirit being heavily strengthens
edit: nevermind ive since got them now lol. how do you get these new fights? i got 300 waddle dees and im almost done with the forgo stuff- is it after i finish those levels and collect 250+ of the souls? i already loved the first meta knight fight, but its sick to know theres so much more
@@FouMageDev Whoa, take it easy, I'm just saying. In other words, Meta Knight's Darkness Illusion/Upper Calibur is similar to Cloud's Omnislash like you said.
@@FouMageDev No problem for me either. I've played both Kirby Star Allies and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, and now that I think of it that explains the change of Meta Knight's final smash.
According to the figures, Meta Knight does have a pretty important role off-screen. It's said that he was one of the first to really explore the Forgotten Land after being sent there by the vortex; making it as far as the snowy north before eventually returning to protect Waddle Dee Town and its inhabitants from the Beast Pack, while Kirby and friends rescue the Waddle Dees. It's also stated that over that time, Meta Knight fought Gorimondo in particular over 30 times (and won every bout), and despite Fecto Forgo trying to brainwash him like it did King Dedede, he resisted it through sheer force of will and escaped. So still a much better deal than "He appears in this game as a figure only" like in _Rainbow Curse,_ I'd say!
I love how since meta knight is basically a good guy now, all of his fights are either
A)He's possessed
B)The fight is optional/non canon
Optional. Not non-canon.
Pretty sure this fight can be considered canon, meta knight having a quick battle with Kirby in order to train them both
The second option is last minute training
@@jubusch so basically they're sparring
He wasn't possessed in Squeak Squad. Meta Knight was trying to keep Kirby from accidentally unleashing a demon. In Robobot, he was forcefully mechanized
Give credit where it’s due. For once, Meta Knight actually resisted the main villain’s mind control. He got a point on the board, folks!
Yeah and he pretty much acts as Waddle Dee Town's protector while Kirby is off rescuring the still captured ones, in the completed version of the Collosium you can see him standing on top of it overlooking the town.
Meanwhile, Dedede is still batting a 0 average.
@@andrewt329 Through Dedede earns some cool points for what he does in the cutscene after your second battle with him
@@blackdemonknight so... ½ point with a asterisk by it for Dedede.
Honestly, just proves all that training is finally paying off, eh?
This might be the most up-close shot of mask-less Meta we’ve ever had, especially in 3D!
wish he showed more emotion/anger/frustration of the loss.
I'm pretty sure he doesn't mind losing as he's like teacher and proud of strong student
@@TheBigOneJagHe literally destroyed his own flying ship just to prove he could do anything Kirby could do.

Meta Knight was always my favorite character.
Same. I love how Meta Knight is basically a dark Kirby. He’s badass but he’s ironically cute lol
0:55 Huh, so Meta Knight is a Earth-bender. Well, King Dedede does has lightning powers, so I guess they have some extra skills.
I mean... in the arena king dedede has ice powers but in mask forms he got fire so who knows so uhhhh KING DEDEDE IS THE GODDAMN AVATAR
He kept it from Star Allies

@@kubatczew757 kirby fighters 2 predicted this
That's not earthbending. That's just his tornado move. You can see the wind pick them up
Phantom Meta Knight is the definition of a harder version of a boss. This guy was troubling to deal with.
Yeah, and he literally was made because ID-F86 couldn't control Meta Knight, which is fantastic in my opinion.

i miss galacta knight i wish we heard his crazy ass theme
I would be so down to hear a version of his theme in this soundtrack's style, if could be amazing
It's an adorable version of Artorias of the Abyss.
Ok, but let's be honest
the cutscene where morpho absorbs Soul Forgo is _really_ cool
Meta knight: prepare to die! Kirby!
Meta Knight isn't Morpho Knight though. Galacta Knight is Morpho Knight.
I was able to fight meta knight without the sword. I used the pencil drill ability and just made a circle around the sword thats on the ground and it makes the sword dissappear then starts the fight
Or you can just attack it and it triggers a different cutscene
Fighting meta knight without sword is something that can't be forgiven

Morpho Knight is not the fusion of Morpho + Galacta Knight?, but more like an avatar of himself?, like, what?

Kirby rules
Morpho knight is mid. Meda knight color is purple and dark blue. Not orange. Plus his epic bat wings are butterfly wings which is a instant negatige
