OK look when the first final boss you ever fight is a clown and then you go watch Digimon and the super ultra mega forms of the protagonists' partners who have never lost a straight fight before are one-shot by an evil clown who laughs at them and turns them all into keychains it changes your brain chemistry forever. And then you go "ok I think I will be fine as long as the next anime my child brain is exposed to doesn't have a fabulously foppish villain who uses cartoon antics to humiliate his opponents disguising a sinister undertone. Oh hey what's this Yu-Gi-Oh show?" But sincerely, thank you for watching. It's been really enjoyable seeing sincere reactions not just to STUFF I DID for the sake of my hyper-inflated ego, but to a series I do hold really dear. Thank you for really putting in a sincere investment toward all this stuff, even my silly clown monster lad. Lemme know if there's anything I can do for ya any time!
Fair enough! I didn't grow up watching those shows so my brain is safe from the clowns lol. Thank you so much for the offer! Your videos teaching me about Kirby Lore are honestly more than I could ask for already, but if you ever need any sort of help on a future project, please feel free to contact me directly. I'd be honored to provide any sort of contribution I can to your work.
It sucks that when Sakurai said that in the presentation it went over so many people's heads, cause it's probably one of the most interesting details on base ultimate's development we have imo
Another thing about Marx’s appearance in Star Allies, the Japanese pause screen descriptions of him actually state that he’s there helping Kirby just because he recognizes that Void Termina is too much of a threat, and wants to put a stop to it just so it can’t ruin his fun as he spreads mischief across the galaxy. He teams up with Kirby because he knows he’s a strong ally and has learned not to mess with him after Super Star. Although, interestingly, I’d say that there’s likely a part of Marx that actually enjoys having a team of friends in Star Allies, as a few collectible illustrations in the game show him actually having fun and frolicking with Kirby and friends. I mean, I’m sure causing mischievous pranks however he wants is his top priority, since Star Allies also makes it clear that he’s a loose canon that can go off at any moment, but who knows, maybe he learned that having friends to engage in mischief with is better than doing it alone. It’s this small, added layer of depth that makes Marx endearing while still being really creepy, unhinged, and super entertaining all the same. 💜
Basically, he's like the Joker. Crime got no punchline without Batman. And if some greater evil threatens to destroy his fun, then of course he will gladly help the heroes.
@@superspider64 The players and the developers. Also, Marx didn't repent whilst other characters did. Magolor's redemption arc, Taranza helping Kirby to combat Sectonia, Susanna Patricia Haltmann to kill Star Dream, the mages and hyness repenting for Void Termina, Elfillis repent for Fecto Effillis. DeDeDe and Meta Knight.
The cutscene of Marx crashing into the Nova and exploding was a MASSIVE meme in the Japanese Kirby fandom that eventually made its way overseas semi recently. I can't really say why it's funny to me but it is. I think part of it might be the face Nova makes as he explodes, and also the music that plays. Marx's betrayal of Kirby feels so much more personal than any other foe Kirby's fought, if there's any time in Kirby's life where he's expressed real anger it would probably be during their fight. Nobody does it like Marx. I remember when Smash Ultimate dropped I think he was the only boss in the game that was kept secret up until release, I can't remember if I found out about him being in the game through the internet or if it was me seeing him first hand but I definently gasped I was so excited but also a little sad cuz I wanted him playable lol. Kirby is due for another playable character in Smash for sure, Marx and Bandee being probably the most likely two. Seeing how creepy Marx is in Ultimate, definently makes me wonder what exactly was too far for the age rating...
Can't wait for this to culminate in you playing a Kirby game, lol. I Didn't even know you before these reactions came up, but I'm definitely gonna keep an eye out if you give one a try. They're a lot of fun and anyone can enjoy them.
10:00 Regarding Magolor, he's the second villain in the series to befriend Kirby to get him to do his bidding and then betray him. In fact, there's a good possibility that Magolor's plan was inspired by Marx's in-universe, as Magolor mentions having met someone who fought with Kirby in the past. Magolor tricked Kirby into defeating Landia, the four-headed dragon guardian of the Master Crown, so that Magolor could use its ultimate power to rule the universe. However, Magolor actually grew attached to Kirby, King Dedede, Bandana Dee, and even Meta Knight through the course of the game, and regarded them as his friends after he was freed from the Crown's influence. Magolor was corrupted by an evil force, and eventually got a redemption arc (RPGMonger's Kirby lore video briefly mentioned that Magolor started building amusement parks, and that was all we had for a while, but in the recent remake of Kirby's Return to Dreamland, there's a whole mode set after the events of the main story where you play as Magolor journeying through space hell and eventually destroy the Master Crown for good), but Marx still remains a psychotic evil gremlin, and as far as we know, there wasn't any evil force corrupting him, he was just insane and power-hungry, and honestly, I like that. The fact that he's just evil without a tragic backstory or any involvement with a being of darkness is kind of unique in the Kirby universe.
Another interesting aspect. When Magolor, the other betray villain, survives his ordeal with Kirby, he goes right for a redemption arc. He destroys the remains of the Crown that drove him mad and creates an amusement park. It's even speculated that the crown's very presence was the thing that drove Magolor to betrayal. But when Marx got his second chance, he went straight for round 2 in trying to defeat Kirby like the little turd he is.
And then in his third chance he doesn’t even becomes good, he is just helping because of Kirby or someone else giving him food(in the English translation) or because if Void is freed he couldn’t have fun doing everyones lives horrible(in the original version in Japanese)
Its a shame he didnt bring up the boss music here, Marx's theme is a composer's worst nightmare, perfect for his wild antics and personality. its time signiture constantly switches up between 3/4, 5/4 and 7/4
A fun detail: Marx's name in Japan is "Maaku," or Mark, a foreign, American, harsh-sounding name that doesn't immediately imply cuteness... kinda like Kirby's name! In fact, that's part of why Kirby's name stuck out in Japan. I wouldn't be surprised if Mark's name was chosen to parallel Kirby in that regard.
Marx has (and still kinda is) my favorite Kirby character. He’s an evil gremlin and I love him. He may not be all that deep but he’s enjoyable to watch. (And this is coming from someone who usually doesn’t enjoy “evil for evil’s sake” characters.)
Fun fact: Because of Marx & Magalor, Kirby fans are primed to think the new little guys introduced are going to backstab Kirby. Like, when Forgotten Land came out, everyone looked at Elfilin and were immediately: "I know you're gonna betray us and become the final boss somehow, you little shit!"
Something the video doesn't say: his theme is insane, the melody is good but when you try to sing along, you can't at first, because the rhythm is different every time, goes from 3/4 to 7/4, 5/4, is super difficult to memorize but the song plays so naturally that just confuses more on "how can they do this?", please, go listen, both Super Star and Smash versions of the song, is super cool.
Im genuinely so glad youre doing so many kirby reactions from knowing almost nothing about the series. I only found your stuff because of your kirby reactions and I rarely ever get to see someone new fall in love with it.
You know, based on some of the main characters' personalities and motivations, I feel like the people of Dream Land (or at least, the more significant or "main" characters, or maybe even just the more significant natives of Pop Star) represent their own "dreams" of sorts-in the sense of aspirations, goals, wishes, etc. The dream Kirby represents is one of simple enjoyment-good friends, good food, peaceful sleepy time, and stopping any bad guys from being mean to his friends-maybe even making them his friends afterwards! It's pure, simple, and good. King Dedede? It's fame, baby. The authority, status, and wealth that comes from being the King of Dream Land. His fights with Kirby (when not possessed) take place in an arena with people cheering (or just Bandana Dee), where people can see him challenge the most powerful pink puffball that ever existed-and where does he continue to fight against Kirby when not possessed? That's right-public tournaments. Even his 30-year character arc doesn't really disprove this-while he certainly desires to be a better king for his people, what does he gain out of this? Not just respect, but adoration from his subjects. He gains fame from noble actions, and the undying loyalty of the Waddle Dees, of course. Meta Knight? Well, as explained in RPG Monger's lore videos, he most of all wants to test his might against worthy foes-The wish he made in Meta Knightmare Ultra was to fight "the strongest warrior in the galaxy", after all. I wouldn't be surprised if his goal of starting a war to get Dream Land to be less lazy was mostly an attempt to see if it would create worthy war heroes to challenge. You could then say that his dream is of "proving his own worth". And Bandana Dee? It'd be easy to call his dream "to stand amongst the best of Dream Land"-and you'd certainly be right about that. But I think that at its core, his dream can better be described as being one of hard work-that, as long as you work hard and keep at it (and drink your apple juice), your efforts can pay off-you can go from the weakest of the weak to someone who can take on godlike foes and win. Marx? Well, you *could* describe his dream as being one of power. But I think a better way to describe it is *mischief*. Above all, what Marx wants to do is fuck around and never find out. Considering that in Star Allies, there are illustrations of him legitimately enjoying the company of Kirby and friends, he probably doesn't cause problems out of spite (okay, well, not ENTIRELY out of spite), more so because he enjoys dicking around. Sure, he wants power, but not to destroy anything or cause the end times-he wants to make as much mischief as possible, as he says himself. Ruling over Pop Star is only to facilitate that goal. It's a dream of not needing to care about the consequences of your actions. I'd say that it'd be totally in character for Marx to act on every impulsive thought that poofs into his little gremlin mind. In a way, his dream is as simple as Kirby's, just in the opposite direction. And he's so much fun to watch because of it.
Marx may be more surface level, but his fight is very memorable. From his blood red “up next” sign 15:33 (which is not normal btw Hal added extra spice) to his boss attacks. Marx to me has the second most disturbing attacks in Kirby, which is an achievement. Marx callously rips his own body in half to attack you and has a ton of high damage run killer attacks. Keep in mind, you have to fight every boss in the true arena to get to Marx soul again if you die. Your nerves are shot and Marx soul has 2-3 moves that will pretty much end your run just by cleaving away most of your health. Most final bosses have one large, well telegraphed attack with that kind of damage. Marx at minimum as 2. His attacks are nonsensical and almost whimsical, his design feels like a warped Kirby, and his music is crazy good. Marx isn’t a lore heavy character, but damn if he doesn’t leave an impression. Not to mention his scream, Marx’s soul scream was the Haltmann scream before Haltmann one upped him.
Yeah you should definitely check out a video about Dimentio from Super Paper Mario, he's another twisted jester who tricks the heroes into defeating the "main villain" only to become the actual final boss.
I'm sorry can't recognice if the membership was a gift or at random, but for you to know I'm happy to be here to enjoy these with you now. Keep the Good work!
I love that in the starting half of the video Designing For used multiple of Dimentio's themes ^.^ I hate that little jester bastard, but SPM representation!!
to your question about "most powerful attacks" in most well written stories, either the villian simply underestimated their oponent, or their supper attack has a huge drawback that requires their oponent to be soffened up enough for it to be the final attack. an execution attack, if you will.
If Kirby represents a childish benevolence Marx represents a childish malevolence And that's why he's one of my favorite villains, he's basically the manifestation of all the messed up thoughts you had as a kid because you didn't know any better
Been loving this streak of Designing For reactions! His work is great! Besides the future videos tackling Thorgi's BlazBlue retrospective(And hopefully the rest of his videos, they're all fantastic!), I'd love if you checked out the Storytelling/Speedpaint-hybrid works of PopCross Studios in the near future! Whether you start all the way back with Multiverse Tales, which is still ongoing, or tackle his newer shorter series like Vigilants and Starseed Psyche, I know you're gonna fall in love with his illustrations and character writing!
Not necessarily a reaction suggestion, but check out Terminalmontage's Kirby animations. They're a fun watch and quick summaries of events in previous games.
I feel Desiging For here..... Marx Soul is not the hardest boss fight but the sheer fact you have to get past Galactica Knight again to get to him actually makes his fight waaaaay more stressful than you'd think... and you do in fact feel like he trolled you if you die to him.
Hey, could I bother you to watch Meteorz' "What is Kirby Canon?" series? Not to talk down on The RPG Monger or DesigningFor, but their videos are prone to misinformation and conjecture. Meteorz dives deeply into the core of things to make sure he is not saying anything wrong, so it may paint a slightly more accurate picture of the lore. Besides, he dives deeply into characters and themes that were barely even touched on so far, like Kracko and Whispy Woods! Unfortunately, these videos will date quickly as the channel is retired, but so far they're entirely up to date!

Oh, this must be that guy people constantly bring up when discussing politics. IDK what an evil space clown is doing in government, but he seems to have made a name for himself.
since theres no designing for video for meta knight, you should watch "who is meta knight" by silvery! it goes into his character well and i atleast enjoyed it alot!! its an older video by now but it gets the basics! then youll have all four of the main lil goobers covered lol

Fun fact: in Smash Bros Ultimate, they had to redo Marx’s boss fight ‘cause it was quote: “too creepy”
Didn't they just remove the weird vein attack and the creepy ass black eye balls thingie
@@RaijinRainno he still does that. Apparently there was something worse in design planning.
Dude, I wanna see the uncensored Marx boss
It sucks that when Sakurai said that in the presentation it went over so many people's heads, cause it's probably one of the most interesting details on base ultimate's development we have imo
The SBU devs are cowards, hope they patch it and add the creepy aspects back.
4:46 pretty sure that's the joke. That Whyu is super obscure, and Star Allies brought literally everyone back.

Damn, the power of friendship is so strong in the Kirby Universe that it can even redeem Marx to an extent
@@superspider64
But Marx is optional, and he's noway near as powerful as the Tridental Mages, Magolor etc.
@@ObadiahQRex who cares about power scaling I'm talking about redemption
@@superspider64

Also, Marx didn't repent whilst other characters did.

16:10 Fun fact: That "strongest attack" meme was borrowed from an optional superboss in Undertale.
The worst thing is that with that dialogue I can clearly hear sans' eeee eeeeeee eee eeeeeeee ee eeeeeee eeeeeee
That is a really weird way to describe him. I guess all endgame bosses are technically “optional” though, huh.
@ It’s “optional” in the sense that it’s a branching path that you don’t need to play to get the True Ending.

If you're thinking of branching out from his Kirby stuff, his video on Bowser always makes me smile, if a bit of a long one.

This is why Kirby anything costs nightmares.
21:31 It was Esidisi.
I hear Dimentio's theme in the video. Definitely check out a video about him too. I can't recommend any specific ones.
Awesome Kirby video!
16:19 Hi Sans how did you get on this channel?
I feel Desiging For here..... Marx Soul is not the hardest boss fight but the sheer fact you have to get past Galactica Knight again to get to him actually makes his fight waaaaay more stressful than you'd think... and you do in fact feel like he trolled you if you die to him.
I hope we get more of Marx.
Say, have you ever heard of Super Mario Bros. Z? If not, it might be worth checking out.
You're not a professional clown until you have your performance face painted on an egg, resting with the others.
My favorite little eldritch jester!
21:31 of course it was Jojo lmfao

Oh, this must be that guy people constantly bring up when discussing politics.
IDK what an evil space clown is doing in government, but he seems to have made a name for himself.
It's either marx or Chuckles
since theres no designing for video for meta knight, you should watch "who is meta knight" by silvery! it goes into his character well and i atleast enjoyed it alot!! its an older video by now but it gets the basics! then youll have all four of the main lil goobers covered lol
