@@truetakofame4112 The guy that voiced Meta Knight in the 4Kids dub is Eric Stuart, most notably the voice of Brock and James from Pokémon and Seto Kaiba from Yu-Gi-Oh. Edit: Just a spelling error.
I remember when I was a kid, I was such a big fan of Meta Knight. And sometimes when I think about it, I think to myself "Haha I was such a cringy kid, almost having a crush on a blueberry bat swordman thing." But this video reminds me of why I liked him so much. I really need to watch this show again
Meta knight is a good person. He normally doesn't help people. He really tells them some tip or what to do then let them do it there self. He always fights for justice and love. He is always saying things that are right and speaks the truth. He leaps Kirby but makes things do it for himself when he's in a situation he can care for himself. He's always watching over the kids. Even when there not around. This is why I have a huge crush on meta knight.
I love how Meta just sparta kicks the tank down all while saying "I am His Majesty's faithful servant!". Also, how the hell does Meta Knight always know where Fumu, Bun, and Kirby are?
Meta Knight could be cold, but he is sincere Living a war must be a hell for him...don´t expect Meta Knight to be soft when he watched his friends die and fighting demon beast constantly in the past Even after all that he endured, he still shows he have heart, specially for Kirby >.> /
2:18 I thought that scene made meta knight look so cool in the reflection of the water but then the camera zoomed out and showed him standing on the ring of the actual fountain because he’s too short to appear in the reflection from standing behind the wall and I laughed. I would give anything to watch meta knight pulling himself up onto the fountain
The moments in this video and the light novels are the main reason why Meta Knight is such an amazing character. He has the looks of the cliche dark edgelord, yet couldn’t be more different from the trope. He cares deeply for those around him, so deeply that even a disciplined knight like him lets that care consume him the same way others let hate or vengeance consume them. He trains to be the strongest, yet he still pushes Kirby and his friends to limits that outclass his own.
Ok, about that MK's spanish guitar tune i'm so gonna try to find if i can get it for my freaking *ring-tone* somewhere lol ... he's that epic XD... MK and even DDD are my fav chars of this show though XD
Wow. The translation made that first scene WAY different! I didn't know he was originally unleashing his angry words at them! In English he's just like "It pains me to do this sire." Pretending he felt bad about it! Why can't they ever translate things right?
I know this is two years old, but the lines are at times different due to a few reasons. And this isn't exclusively about 4Kids either (which is infamous for heavy censorships, Crash Town in Yugioh 5Ds being an example), this goes for all dubs. The Japanese language as a whole is filled with different dialects and slang, making it almost impossible to use direct translations most of the time. If direct translations were used, the dialogue would make little to no sense or be filled with grammatical errors in English. A friend, who is fluent in Japanese and has gone to Japan many times, struggled with translating Yoh's and Amidamaru's dialogue in Shaman King, strictly because of the dialects. Lip flaps and general timing is another factor. The lines have to be able to fit the lip flaps (or get as close as they possibly can), otherwise we get scenarios like in Sonic 06 where characters are either not moving their mouths despite hearing them talk, or their lips keep flapping and nothing's coming out. Characters without mouths, such as Meta Knight, have the advantage of not having lip flaps to worry about, but the lines still have to fit within a certain time frame. Sometimes, they can get lucky and are able to get the exact same line in, other times not so much.
It's just too bad Dedede sounds like an old man in Japanese, his English voice is so iconic. Otherwise I would've loved the sub version... Meta Knight's voice is so good and even Kirby talks sometimes, can't remember him ever doing that in the dub
@@1Up2081 Some of the cuts were done for time constraints and to be honest, that's not entirely a bad thing, to get rid of instances of padding and so forth.
That Bun and MK moment really touched my heart. 1:46 And so did the Kaabii and MK moment 3:07 The Fumu and MK one at 2:25 K all three of the moments touched my heart. Meta Knight is a huge role model to them, I swear.
It was Kirby's one year anniversary since he first landed, and the villagers were preparing a surprise for him. So when Kirby wants someone to play with, they all say no and he gets the feeling that he's not wanted anymore.
@@shimigen5994 Well, I guess there could be a season involving Dark Matter. He's the only villain besides Marx that classic fans can truly remember, but Marx wasn't exactly a big threat. 😞
Okay so even JP has the guitar, I see why the spanish accent now. I really like both English and Japanese voice, english cause accent and it's nice to listen to and Japanese cause it's very smooth and nice to listen to
Man, I can see all of his past hardships in meta knights eyes when they glow... 😣 They were negative hardships too. The way he had to come out of all those must've been even colder 😨 Don't cha think!
Even if the dub was bad, I still prefer it because Meta Knight with a spanish accent is amazing and the voice for Ddd and Escargoon fits greatly. The voice of the salesman just compliments his design(on tv) and personality too. They did a great job on the dub
Can we talk about how despite kirby's simple design, he is animated in cgi? You'd think they'd save the cgi for environments or monsters with more complex designs
I know. It's a pity that the first version I saw was the dubbed one, so I kinda decided that I hated that show. Then on one of my trips to Japan, I saw the fireworks episode and decided to give the original version a try. Now I love it!
Meta Knight also saved Sword and Blade's lives ages ago, in the aftermath of the war between the Star Warriors and Nightmare. (One of Nightmare's surviving monsters heard/spotted the group and came over to attack.) He had no reason to save them - they were bandits and had just tried to rob him. But he did anyway. Which is why Sword and Blade are so devotedly loyal to Meta Knight in the anime.
You weren't sure if the last scene was caring or not? ôo That's interesting because I always thought it is one of the moments that so clearly tell that he is. It was the frst scene I thought about twhen i read the videotitle XD It's a nice selection of scenes ^^
I love this scene so much because I think Meta Knight knew for the Kirby's Birthday and when he saw him in the Kabu Valley, he understood what Kirby was doing, and secretly told him to go home because all his friends wait for him. So cute...
You know, you see that water fountain get OWNED so, many, times! Ep. 26, When they find out about the halberd... That fountain is just a god forsaken TARGET! lol
As someone who prefers the dub because I just love stupid puns and cheesy moments, the first moment is miles better in the sub as Meta Knight still plays up the loyal servant thing to justify making them roll back down while the dub just has him do it with no explanation. He apologizes for it, but there’s just the hilarious “It pains me to do this sire” line. I still like it and get a laugh, but in terms of characterization, the original definitely did it better.
I believe that this has something to do with the entirety of the show. It's common knowledge that Fumu is a complete know-it-all, while everyone else is usually clueless as to what's going on, aside from Sir Meta Knight, of course. Though it's true Sir Meta Knight is a valorous swordsman, it would seem to me that he believes Fumu is capable of doing a better job dealing with... Whatever's happening. I haven't seen that episode, though, so I'm not sure.
I don't think he's cold, he just wants Kirby to be able to do things without help. And Fumu's a brat who needs to stop acting like it's Meta Knight's job to fix everything.
Meta Knight is a dad in the most normal way possible
Appears out of nowhere like a ninja, has a really cool sword, eyes change color, and cape bat wings? YEP! A DAD
@@ronlix737 according to the internet any male character can be a dad and I can't deny that fact
Even in the uncut, uncensored, Japanese original, we hear that guitar that we thought 4Kids shoved in.
Guess we have a reason for why they gave him a Spanish accent.
It's a slightly different guitar riff, though.
@@cyan.6399 Still Spanish
Didn't they also get the guy who voiced Juandisimo from Fairly Odd Parents for Meta Knight?

unless its the 4kids dub, then he is just Spanish and has some one liners
secret14eva i would never say this but.... *that's a very good reason to have a crush on him*
I think all the people who whatched this video has a crush on him...I wanna kiss him so daaaaaaamn hard ^ ^
"Those fools would never understand without being taught a painful lesson."
Fucking god that was epic.
Point blank he just called everyone in cappy town stupid

Sadly, that is true sometimes. Some people only learn the consequences of their actions when they see the consequences in reality.

Because 4Kids
The Kirby anime could use a redub

Depends what you're translating. Some things wouldn't make sense directly translated or may have different connotations in different languages.

A friend, who is fluent in Japanese and has gone to Japan many times, struggled with translating Yoh's and Amidamaru's dialogue in Shaman King, strictly because of the dialects.
Lip flaps and general timing is another factor. The lines have to be able to fit the lip flaps (or get as close as they possibly can), otherwise we get scenarios like in Sonic 06 where characters are either not moving their mouths despite hearing them talk, or their lips keep flapping and nothing's coming out.

Sometimes, they can get lucky and are able to get the exact same line in, other times not so much.
I've never heard the Japanese voices before but they sound really good! Especially Meta Knight's. May have to rewatch the show in subbed.
Meta Knight's sounds familiar to me, because I watch too much Osomatsu San and Fairy Tail...
