:This page is a hub for information about the ''Kirby of the Stars! Moretsu Pupupu Hour!'' manga series. Due to WiKirby's currently abysmal manga coverage, the project will take long, and may be disorganized. It heavily depends on existing translations or the ability of editors to work with Japanese text.

''Moretsu Pupupu Hour'' is set in its own [[continuity]]; however, its setting frequently overlaps with the game a given volume is released after. Most chapters are largely episodical, with few overarching storylines and occasional two-part stories. One exception to this is volume 13, which has several chapters set one after another dedicated to a loose retelling of ''[[Kirby: Planet Robobot]]''.

Characters are often introduced as the games they make their debut in are released. Many become recurring (such as [[Magolor]] or [[Taranza]]), while others are mostly limited to cameo appearances at best (like [[Prince Fluff]]). The personalities of the characters are often exaggerated to an extreme (such as [[Kirby]]'s gluttony or [[Meta Knight]]'s ego and sense of rivalry). Naturally, characters that simply appear as common foes in the games are more fleshed out and given unique personality traits.

This manga series is no stranger to breaking the [[fourth wall]], both directly (namely competing for the role of the manga's main character or refering to real-life game releases) and indirectly (for example, commenting on a battle's manga-like choreography).

===Characters=== 
:*Note: playful writing used. This is a rough overview, not a mainspace-ready draft. Need to sort by chronology when possible.
*[[Kirby]]: gluttonous to an extreme, playful and often takes threats on a more minor scale lightly. Cares deeply for his friends and stands up for Dream Land when things get dire. Can use his [[Copy Ability]] at will besides inhaling. Physical difference: has a singular fang.
*[[King Dedede]]: ruler of Dream Land, Kirby's nemesis, with whom he often fights for food. Relatively unexaggerated traits, with the exception of his ego.
*[[Meta Knight]]: masked swordsman and Kirby's rival, prides himself on skill and elegance. Ego and quirks often grotesquely exaggerated.
*[[Marx]]: mischievous alien who plots to take over or destroy Dream Land, depending on his mood, often just picks a fight with Kirby for petty reasons. Has hands.
*[[Box Boxer]]: laid-back and accepting of Kirby's plot armor, his bad puns and jokes stun just about everyone.
*[[Knuckle Joe]]
*[[Cool Spook]]
*[[Chilly]]
*[[Paint Roller]]
*[[Gao Gao]]
*[[Daroach]]
*[[Galacta Knight]]
*[[Magolor]]
*[[Taranza]]
*[[Queen Sectonia]]
*[[Susie]]
*[[Mr. Frosty]]: one of Dream Land's residents. While he can occasionally be seen partaking in the same activities as others, he usually appears as a seller, taking on a [https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/NewJobAsThePlotDemands new job as the plot demands].
*[[Chip]] and [[Snooter]], almost always seen together and in the background, either outdoors in Dream Land or on television.
*Many, many more, need to split roles.

It's an important day in [[Dream Land]]: the annual Great Eating Contest. The grand prize for the winner of this competition is chef [[Cookin]]'s (questionably diverse) Dream Bowl. In preparation for the event, Dream Land's residents have been fasting the days prior; however, the carefree Kirby eats breakfast immediately before the start of the competition, much to the shock of his friend [[Cool Spook]]. The meal that the contestants will need to eat is revealed to be [[wikipedia:oden|oden]], which [[King Dedede]] explains to be one of the manga's [[Asami Taniguchi|author]]'s favorite foods. Despite his breakfast, Kirby is more than ready to dig in. Just then, the [[Squeaks]] interrupt, with their leader [[Daroach]] announcing that  they will also participate under [[Storo]]'s representation, as Daroach intends to get his hands on the one-of-a-kind Dream Bowl.

The contest begins, and the oden's soup proves to be too hot to eat. Kirby is not at all disheartened: he enjoys the soup as a hot tub while munching on oden. He farts in the oden bowl, causing all contestants except Storo to pass out. Once reminded about the Dream Bowl, Kirby gets serious and gains the [[Fighter]] ability, enabling his fighting spirit to devour more oden. The Squeaks are concerned that Storo will lose, but Daroach explains that he was simply a decoy to distract the audience, and they prepare to steal the Dream Bowl. However, their escape is sabotaged due to Fighter Kirby's long headband getting stuck to the Dream Bowl, which results in him getting dragged along. The Squeaks are blown away when Kirby releases the headband. Kirby runs back with the Dream Bowl, but by the time he's back, Storo is announced as the winner. Daroach gloats, but then finds the Dream Bowl to have been emptied by Kirby, who ate its contents on the way because he got hungry.

On a peaceful day in [[Dream Land]], [[Daroach]] and the [[Squeaks]] announce the opening of Dream Land's first convenience store, "Daroach's Eleven". The excited [[Kirby]] is quick to see it for himself — and fail to eat it, too. [[Cool Spook]] and [[Box Boxer]] find the thieves' shop sketchy, and it is revealed through Daroach's denying to be part of their plan to get rich fast. Meanwhile, Kirby devours food inside the store. Given that he has no money to pay for it, he is instead forced to work as a clerk for what he ate.

Much to the Squeaks joy, the shop quickly becomes popular and attracts many residents, including [[King Dedede]], for whom Kirby eats up a lunch box with the [[Fire]] ability. During the lunch hours, the Squeaks restock the shop while Kirby takes a nap with the [[Sleep]] ability. After some time, [[Spinni]] points out that the shop is failing to attract any new clients because of Kirby's dangerous use of Copy Abilities. To resolve this, Kirby goes outside and does tricks with the [[Magic]] ability while advertising the shop. After many rough days of advertising under harsh weather, it finally works, and the shop is full of customers again. While cleaning, [[Storo]] reports that the vacuum cleaner is broken. Kirby steps in and starts [[Inhale|inhaling]]; but, naturally, he ends up inhaling too much and emptying the shelves, which leaves the Squeaks devastated.

Cameo:
*[[Pon & Con|Con]] (book cover)
<!--identify picture in calendar over bathroom-->

Winter is in full swing in [[Dream Land]]. After the failure of the convenience store, [[Daroach]] and his gang have started a snow cleaning service in hopes of buying themselves warm coats. Just then, Kirby runs by, commenting on how warm it is. The Squeaks beg to know his secret, which he reveals to be a full-body wool coat that looks just like him. At that time, [[King Dedede]], [[Box Boxer]] and [[Cool Spook]] invite Kirby to play some games together. This sparks an idea in Daroach's mind: he suggests racing to the lodge on the nearby mountain top to stay warm. At first reluctant, King Dedede decides that it'd be a good idea to participate to boost his prestige and appearance count over the Squeaks, who have had a larger role in the manga so far. With this in mind, he accepts, unaware that it's part of the Squeaks' plan to ease the snow cleaning job they were comissioned there. In the meantime, [[Ice]] Kirby makes ice sculptures of Daroach and King Dedede.

The race begins, and [[Wheel]] Kirby quickly plows through the competition, as well as a group of [[Chilly]]s on their way to prepare winter-themed calendars. Kirby halts in the snow, and [[Pengy]] notices him. While Pengy is concerned that Kirby might freeze if he stays still in the snow, Kirby is instead contemplating eating the abundant snow as shaved ice. As the unamused Pengy walks off, Kirby decides to quickly inhale the snow and make a run for the lodge. However, after inhaling it all, Kirby realizes that he is as hungry as ever and collapses. Meanwhile, the heated race continues. The group eventually runs into Kirby, who is laying face down in the snow. Seeing no movement, they mourn the puffball. However, they find that it was just another of Kirby's full-body coats, and Kirby already reached the lodge, which is revealed to be Pengy's home. Pengy then tells the group that they need to clean the snow from the roof. Seeing that the lodge's roof has no snow on it, the Squeaks question this, only to find out that the actual house is much larger and mostly under the visible part, buried under a mountain of snow. Everyone ends up digging through the heaps snow, and only Kirby finds this activity fun.

On an autumn day, [[Kirby]] has [[Box Boxer]] pose with an [[apple]] for a painting. [[Cool Spook]] admires Kirby's artwork, which turns out to be an illustration of just the apple. Suddenly, [[Gao Gao]] comes running, informing Kirby that [[Castle Dedede]] is in trouble. At the castle, [[Drawcia]] traps [[King Dedede]] and his subordinates in paintings, plotting to transform Dream Land into her masterpiece once more. When Kirby arrives, he begins admiring the paintings of Castle Dedede's residents and scribbles on King Dedede's painting. Drawcia threatens Kirby with her [[Magic Paintbrush]] but realizes that Kirby already took it and is drawing a copy of himself, which comes to life.

Preparing for battle, Kirby draws a bunch of [[food]] that he eats on the spot, while Drawcia snatches back her paintbrush and showers Kirby in [[bomb (object)|bombs]]. Kirby manages to take the paintbrush back and makes a kebab missile that strikes Drawcia. However, she recovers the brush since Kirby threw it together with the missile, and she draws a cage over Kirby. All seems lost as Drawcia gloats until Kirby jumps out of nowhere and steals the paintbrush again, revealing that the Kirby in the cage is the copy he drew earlier. Kirby draws a lightning bolt over Drawcia and finishes her off with a storm. This frees the residents of Castle Dedede. King Dedede solemnly thanks Kirby for rescuing them, unaware that the scribbles Kirby drew earlier are still a part of his look.

A new year starts in Dream Land, and its residents are ready to spend it as lazily as the last. [[Gao Gao]] spots a meteorite headed for Dream Land with a telescope and runs off to warn the rest. Meanwhile, [[Meta Knight]] arrives on the [[Halberd]], setting out to put an end to Dream Land's lazy lifestyle (not unlike a [[Revenge of Meta Knight|similar story]] in ''[[Kirby Super Star]]''). Kirby seconds Meta Knight's thoughts on laziness but is quick to display it himself, reading manga under a table. The rest join him, and Meta Knight makes an over-the-top dramatic speech about the inelegance of their manga. Meta Knight proclaims that he will be the new protagonist of the manga and asks for a duel with Kirby for the main spot. Kirby ignores this request until Meta Knight discloses that his own manga will enforce discipline at a school, limit others to only playing [[Meta Knightmare Ultra]] in ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]'', and have the other characters worship him. Dream Land's residents decide that it's best for Kirby to keep his position as the main character and view Meta Knight as unfit for the protagonist role.

At that moment, [[Bouncy]] passes by, carrying a load of [[apple]]s. Wishing to prove himself, Meta Knight offers to help her with the load and lifts her and the apples. Kirby offers to help lighten up the load in another way by inhaling the apples. Meta Knight starts scolding Kirby, but Bouncy thanks him since she would have been unavle to finish the leftover apples by herself. The shocked Meta Knight is made the subject of ridicule by the rest. Just then, Gao Gao arrives with the news about the meteorite. Meta Knight initially wants to heroically stop it, but thinks about the things Dream Land's residents said, as well as Kirby's typically goofy behavior. He follows his rival's example and performs a folk rhyme, leading the rest to think he cracked under pressure. Kirby comes to the rescue with the [[Jet]] ability and stops the meteorite in its tracks. Everyone cheers for Kirby, and Meta Knight realizes that selfless heroism is the true trait of a main protagonist, only for him to take his words back when he hears Kirby's relief that the book he had been reading is unscathed. He gets frustrated because no one else hears Kirby's selfish remark.

[[Marx]] destroys planet after planet. He reads about [[Dream Land]] in a ''Moretsu Pupupu Hour'' manga volume and decides to target Planet [[Popstar]]. He spots [[Kirby]], who is about to gobble up an apple, and snatches the apple from him. Kirby chases Marx in the air until they reach a cliff. Marx introduces himself and announces the reason for his visit. He intends to defeat Kirby first, having heard he's a formidable opponent. Kirby, primarily upset about the apple, attacks Marx with the [[Fighter]] ability, but Marx is quick to retaliate.

Ridiculing Kirby, Marx reveals that his friends are caged up and dangling on the side of the cliff, balanced by a bomb on the opposite side, which was done for his own pleasure. He lights up the rope holding the cage and gives Kirby a choice: save his friends or stop the bomb. Now dead serious, Kirby rescues his friends, as Dream Land is wherever they are. He puts the cage down and jumps down for the bomb. However, [[Meta Knight]] appears to have caught the bomb already, and he throws it in the air, where it explodes spectacularly in his Mach Tornado. Meta Knight, Kirby and his now freed friends stand up against Marx, and the chapter ends on a cliffhanger.

The story continues from where the previous chapter left off. [[Marx]] threatens to turn [[Dream Land]] into a pile of rubble. When Kirby stands up against him,Marx transforms into a more powerful form. In response, Kirby  blocks Marx's attack with the [[Parasol]] ability. [[Meta Knight]] vows to fight alongside Kirby, but [[Fighter]] Kirby directs a Sky Uppercut at him, sending Meta Knight flying, as we wishes to fight Marx one-on-one. Kirby dodges Marx's [[Shooter Cutter]]s with his [[Ninja]] techniques and strikes back with an [[Air Drop]]. Kirby's friends cheer for him, and Marx is infuriated. He strikes Kirby with a devastating [[Black Hole]].

Despite being crippled, Kirby gets up and says that he's having fun during this battle. The dumbfounded Marx gets caught up in [[Crash]] Kirby's explosion. Kirby's friends are now cheering for both sides, and what started as a conflict of high stakes becomes a fighting match. Neither Marx nor Kirby back away from their goals. They clash once again, and Marx gets thrown towards the edge of the cliff. As Marx thinks to himself that it was actually fun indeed while falling, Kirby grabs his arm and brings him back to the cliff. Marx accepts his defeat and heads off. Kirby asks Marx to come again to play sometime, and Marx gladly accepts this invitation.

Dream Land's residents host a figure skating contest at the ice rink. As [[King Dedede]] showcases a four-spin jump, [[Kirby]] steals the spotlight with a jump cyclone of his own. After this, he gets hungry. [[Mr. Frosty]] conveniently passes by, offering a last bowl of fried pork. When Kirby goes for it, clashes with [[Meta Knight]], who also has sights for it. The latter decides to settle the dispute with a figure skating duel.

Meta Knight's techniques showcase his prided elegance, while Kirby's skating is full of passion for food. After tying in an axel competition, they continue by jumping high, busting the ceiling and eventually reaching outer space. Meta Knight strikes Kirby with a Mach Tornado, but as he prepares to claim victory, Kirby retaliates with the [[Fire]] copy ability. The final challenge has the two spin. Despite Meta Knight's more refined technique, Kirby wins over the hearts of the judges by spelling out "fried pork" (and by extension in a play of words, "victory") on the ice. As everyone congratulates Kirby, Meta Knight lets out a maniacal laughter and jumps high with a promise to meet again. However, his spectacular exit is cut short by freshly placed wooden boards on the ceiling, causing him to fall back to the rink in an anticlimactic fashion.

It's another peaceful day in [[Dream Land]]. An excited [[Kirby]] runs over to his friends with the first copy of his [[Kirby's Epic Yarn|new game]] after having waited a whole month in line. He is so happy that he is irradiating a contagiously positive aura. In contrast, [[Knuckle Joe]] notices that [[King Dedede]] is irradiating a strong negative aura because the game shop was out of copies of the game when he got there. Despite [[Batty]]'s persistent attempts to console him with the prospect of the next shipment, King Dedede is impatient. He sees that Kirby has a copy and confronts him. Their auras clash and materialize into forces resembling their sources. A crowd gathers to watch, but the spectacle soon ends, as the aura quickly drains both Kirby and King Dedede.

King Dedede inquires how Kirby got his copy. While he respects Kirby's patience, he is frank about not having any himself. He chases after Kirby with his hammer ready to strike. Kirby retaliates by using the [[Cutter]] ability to slash down a tree, which falls onto King Dedede. When he gets up, he hits Kirby with a [[Slide|Slide attack]]. Kirby drops a case, which King Dedede soon discovers to be one of [[Meta Knight]]'s music CDs. Kirby runs off with the copy of the game, leaving his rival dejected. Later at [[Box Boxer]]'s house, Kirby finally plays the game, ''Kirby's Epic Yarn'', on his friend's [[Wii]], since he doesn't have a console of his own. Meanwhile, King Dedede and Batty listen to Meta Knight's song on a CD player on loop, and they disheartenedly agree to wait for the next shipment.

One day in Dream Land, [[Kirby]] sees a [[Metamato|strange rolling tomato]]. As he chases it down, it rolls into a [[Magic Socks|sock]]. He peeks inside and gets sucked in, much to his friends' horror. A portal leads him to [[Patch Land]], where he's greeted by [[Prince Fluff]]. Prince Fluff explains that Kirby won't be able to return without the connected Magic Sock, which is at his castle. However, Kirby pays no attention to Prince Fluff, instead happy to have found his tomato, and experimenting with his new [[transformation (Kirby's Epic Yarn)|transformation]]s: [[Car]], [[Parachute]], [[Weight]], and even turning Prince Fluff into a jump rope.

They hear a scream and see [[King Dedede]] running from a [[Shelby]]. Kirby takes care of the charging Shelby by ravelling up King Dedede into a [[yarn ball]] and throwing him at Shelby. The trio then hear a laugh and find [[Meta Knight]] composing a haiku about the situation, describing himself as good-looking even out of yarn, and quite the opposite for King Dedede. As the two quarrel, Prince Fluff comments on Kirby's friends and a lack of his own, and Kirby says that Prince Fluff is his friend.

Just then, a crowd of [[Cyclod]]s runs by, holding the Magic Sock. Prince Fluff dives in to recover the sock but is defeated. Suddenly, a [[Metamortex]] appears. Kirby touches it and transforms into his [[Tankbot]] form, easily plowing through the Cyclods. King Dedede and Meta Knight rush to get the sock, but they find it to be burnt to a crisp. Since they must settle in Patch Land due to this circumstance, the carefree Kirby stocks up on Metamatoes, much to the others' annoyance.

It's winter in [[Dream Land]], so [[Knuckle Joe]] offers to have a snowball fight. [[Kirby]] immediately creates a snowball dozens of times his size, where [[King Dedede]] ends up getting stuck. Kirby throws the snowball out to the cosmos. In space, [[Marx]] is itching to cause destruction when he sees the snowball coming his way. Irritated, he kicks it back to [[Popstar]]. Meanwhile, Kirby's friends bombard Kirby with snowballs. At first he runs away, but then he [[inhale]]s them all amd spits them back. Knuckle Joe retreats to a makeshift igloo where [[Box Boxer]] and [[Cool Spook]] are having mochi, deciding that a snowball fight against Kirby is unwinnable in the first place. While Kirby runs after the rest of his friends, the snowball Marx kicked back lands on him, flattening Kirby. Marx inquires who made this snowball, and soon receives an answer from the flattened Kirby, who invites Marx to the snowball fight. Having no better passtime anyway, Marx accepts under the condition that he will destroy Dream Land if he wins.

With the stakes high and [[Box Boxer]] and [[Cool Spook]] now commentating, the snowball fight begins. Kirby uses the [[Yo-Yo]] ability to lift his giant snowball and toss it at Marx. Marx forms his own giant mass of snow which clashes with Kirby's, hitting King Dedede from both sides. Kirby is hit by Marx's mass of snow and uses his Yo-Yo to recover his snowball. However, when he rears it in, it appears that he grabbed the moon instead. He smacks Marx on the head with it, then Marx bowls it up a mountain in Kirby's direction. Kirby and Marx kick the moon back and forth, wrecking everything in its path. The fight devolves into hand-to-hand combat. As Marx repeats his threat to destroy Dream Land, Box Boxer points out that is was always destroyed as a result of their fight. An angry mob chases after the two, so they decide to put off their fight. The worn down King Dedede is finally freed from the giant snowball and declared the winner for sheer perserverance.

It's a windy day in [[Dream Land]]. Despite the fierce wind, [[Meta Knight]] is out training. As he strikes a pose in self-praise, a strong gust knocks off his mask. He chases after and searches for it. Just then, he sees [[Kirby]] and his friends setting up camp. Noticing a toilet stall, he decides to wrap his face up in toilet paper as a temporary substitute. He comes to the camp site and asks the group if they've seen his mask. Despite his voice indicating his identity, Kirby's friends fail to recognize him in the makeshift cover. After he tries to explain that he's Meta Knight, Kirby assumes his name to be "Matt A. Nite".<!--[CHECK JP NAME TO COMPARE]-->

Kirby invites "Matt" to lunch. Meta Knight initially refuses, but then notices that the plate with the meat is his mask. He dashes for it but is stopped by [[Knuckle Joe]], who insists that the share is 3 pieces of meat each, while [[Box Boxer]] believes "Matt" to be a meat thief. Meta Knight waits for the last piece of meat to be taken and rushes for the mask again, only for Kirby to place noodles on it. Suddenly, it begins to rain. A nearby cliff threatens to collapse on Kirby, who is guarding the noodles with his life. Equally concerned about his mask as Kirby is about the noodles, as well as worried about the toilet paper dissolving, Meta Knight tosses Kirby a tupperware to store the noodles and dashes in. The cliff collapses on them. However, Meta Knight, now in his mask again, slashes through the debris. He tells Kirby that "Matt" was already sent home. Saddened, Kirby says that he wanted to share the noodles with "Matt", so he asks Meta Knight to bring them to him. Meta Knight promises for him and Kirby to meet again for a fateful duel. As they part ways, Meta Knight wonders if he should have the noodles for dinner.

It is spring in [[Dream Land]], a season of hopes and new beginnings. [[Kirby]] tearfully announces that he is moving on from being the main character of ''Moretsu Pupupu Hour'', thanking everyone for the fun times they've had together and running off. His friends are devastated, but their grief is cut short when a new character enters the scene: "Miss K". [[King Dedede]] immediately suspects her to be Kirby. "Miss K" announces that she'll be the new main character and hopes for the support of the rest, including in the form of food. The disguised [[Box Boxer]], acting has her manager, advertises her as a perfect fit for the series. King Dedede is shocked to discover that everyone buys this story and cheers for "Miss K". "Miss K" quickly becomes a celebrity, releasing albums, appearing on television and at concerts, and signing autographs (although the latter ends in Kirby stuffing himself with the edible presents). When King Dedede tries to convince the rest that "Miss K" is just Kirby in a dress, he's chased off by her fan club.

King Dedede comes to miss Kirby the way he used to be. But one day, he finds Box Boxer sorting through the abundant money he and his friend made. Through their conversation, King Dedede gets an undeniable confirmation that "Miss K" is indeed Kirby. Box Boxer hands Kirby a script of trendy lines to say to the audience. King Dedede enters with a whack at Kirby and confronts the two, threatening to tell the truth to the "Miss K" fan club. Giving in, Kirby and Box Boxer settle for a compromise. On the same stage as the on where Kirby gave his initial farewell speech, "Miss K" announces that she's leaving the position of main character of ''Moretsu Pupupu Hour''. When her fan club starts crying, she throws out her handkerchief and, when the crowd starts fighting for it, other pieces of her clothing until there's nothing left. Finally seeing through the ruse, the crowd anrgily chases after Kirby and Box Boxer.

On a day like any other in [[Dream Land]], [[Kirby]], [[King Dedede]] and company go on a trip to the Dream Land Plateau. [[Box Boxer]] yells into the distance to hear the echo. Kirby imitates this and has a conversation with the echo. Meanwhile, [[Magolor]] is watching the clouds in the sky and notices a cake-shaped one. Hearing his remark, Kirby immediately goes to devour it, but finds it tasteless. He decides to cover the cloud cake with chocolate syrup. Contrary to what Magolor's remarks and common sense imply, the cake becomes tastier, so the two feast on the cloud cake together. However, a soccer ball kicked by [[Knuckle Joe]] accidentally hits Kirby and rolls off. Kirby retrieves the ball — or so was the intention, as he instead brings the moon down. As he kicks it as the soccer ball towards his horrified friends, [[Box Boxer]] prepares lunch. Hearing this, Kirby immediately downs the whole picnic.

King Dedede, who is also having lunch, sees Kirby approaching from a distance. Box Boxer pinches the king about Kirby being the one to steal food, for once, referencing a [[Kirby's Dream Land|previous story]]. After Kirby and King Dedede snatch the food from each other<!--King Dedede uses a [[Slide]]-->, the latter's minions surround him to protect the food, but Kirby doesn't back down. He inhales a nearby [[Hot Head]] to gain the [[Fire]] ability. His attack is blocked by [[Simirror]], leaving an opening for King Dedede to escape. However, King Dedede runs over to the edge of a cliff and falls off. Kirby catches him midair, concerned about the food he is holding. The lunchbox conveniently gets stuck in Kirby's mouth, so friends and foes alike use the opportunity to have a meal with Kirby as the table. Once they're finished, Kirby finally gulps down the empty lunchbox, finding it delicious.

A fishing tournament is being held in Dream Land, hosted by [[Cool Spook]]. [[Kirby]] arrives late, as he had been preparing delicious ornaments on a tree due to confusing the name of the event. He repurposes the tree as bait. Not long after, he gets a large bite, and [[Fatty Whale]] emerges from the water, swallowing Kirby, [[Knuckle Joe]], [[Box Boxer]] and [[Gao Gao]] up. Inside Fatty Whale's mouth, they wonder how they're going to escape, but Kirby is quick to give up and settle inside the whale. They find food, manga, and games (including a copy of ''[[Kirby Mass Attack]]'').

Kirby decides it's time to go home, and he leads his friends to a shack he built within Fatty Whale's mouth. It is surprisingly bigger and more luxurious on the inside. Kirby also presents [[Meta Knight]], who had been stuck inside Fatty Whale for a month. Kirby's friends are bummed out by the implications, but Kirby remembers about the fishing tournament and decides to bring his catch up by [[hover]]ing and pushing it back to the surface. Here, Kirby wins the competition and receives a trophy, which he promptly brings to his home – specifically, the one within Fatty Whale.

*Insects (pictured)

On a summer day in [[Dream Land]], [[Kirby]] is bug catching. He catches a rhinocerous beetle, which he adds to his collection, praised by [[Cool Spook]]. As Kirby decides to write about it in his summer diary, he realizes that he caught a bug the day before, and the day before that, and so on. In a moment of existential crisis, he decides to find some other activities at the beach in order to fill the diary with more interesting memories. He sees [[King Dedede]] at a barbeque and decides to help out by using the [[Fire]] ability; however, all the food is scorched. Kirby happily comments on it to Cool Spook, oblivious to the destruction he's caused. During his stroll, he sees [[Daroach]] and the [[Squeaks]] splitting a watermelon, so he chimes in by eating the entire watermelon from the inside, considering it gifted to him.

On his way home, Kirby and Cool Spook hear a wind chime hanging from a chime and sit under it. However, the flies soon get on their nerves, so for an alternative way to chill, Kirby decides to visit the [[Chilly]]s, who are hiding from the heat in their ice-filled home. As the day nears the end, Kirby leaves the Chillys' house and sees [[Meta Knight]] training at the graveyard. When he finds out Meta Knight is fighting his fear of ghosts, he decides to help out by showing up with his [[Ghost]] copy ability. At first it seems Meta Knight has no reaction at all, but Cool Spook realizes that he is petrified from fear.

Kirby and Cool Spook continue their trip as Kirby continues writing in his summer diary. However, [[Marx]] overhears them and snatches the diary from Kirby. During their scuffle, he manages to read it all and gets bored when he reaches the many bug catching pages, so he tosses the diary away in a way that it ends up landing in the puddle, leaving it completely illegible. Kirby is absolutely devastated and tries to keep himself put by saying he can simply write down memories from scratch again. Cool Spook cheers him up by pointing at a new event to create bright memories at: the Dream Land Summer Festival. The rest of Kirby's friends meet him there, and everyone has fun at the festival. Kirby is certain the diary will be full by the end of that night.

[[King Dedede]] admires a brand new statue of himself and runs off to his castle to grab a camera. While he's gone, [[Kirby]] and his friends reach the statue while playing baseball, and [[Knuckle Joe]] accidentally sends the ball flying right into the statue, breaking off the head. Horrified and hearing King Dedede coming, the group has Kirby take the head's place and tries to gaslight King Dedede into thinking it's always looked like this. Offering to take a group picture, [[Box Boxer]] throws King Dedede's camera and sends him off for another one, buying the rest time.

Kirby initially places the head on the hand, but [[Gao Gao]] brings glue to attach it to the neck. In an attempt to fix the head properly, Kirby ends up smashing the statue into smitherines with [[Hammer]]'s Giant Swing. He rebuilds the statue from the fragments, taking many artistic liberties. King Dedede returns and finds the statue unrecognizable, so he orders the group to reassemble it. They take his order to all make a new head literally, and the statue ends up with six different and atrocious King Dedede heads attached together.

During a stroll in Dream Land with his friends, [[Kirby]] finds a rock and decides to kick it all the way home. He maneuvers through the town, skillfully dodging everyone and grabbing their food while he's at it, which angers the residents. Later down the road, Kirby and his friends run into [[Marx]]. Seeing Kirby's fixation, Marx kicks the rock away from him, and a fight between him and [[Fighter]] Kirby ensues. Kirby shields the rock, so Marx prepares to fire off a powerful attack. Kirby refuses to let go of the rock; however, a timely pun from [[Box Boxer]] quite literally freezes Marx up, thus saving Kirby.

While Kirby keeps rolling the rock, [[Magolor]] checks out the newly repaired [[Lor Starcutter]]. Satisfied with the results, he decides to begin his quest of conquering the world, starting with Dream Land. Unfortunately for him, Kirby kicks the rock in the wrong direction, and it hits the emblem and shatters the Lor Starcutter, and so Dream Land never gets to see its new overlord. The rock bounces back to Kirby, and he comes [[Kirby's House|home]] for a good night's sleep, unaware that he saved the world.

Kirby begs Box Boxer to let him back in, promising not to eat any of the treats, drooling and setting his sights on them while doing so. Box Boxer refuses, and Kirby leaves. [[Mr. Frosty]] arrives with a parcel, which turns out to contain Kirby in it. Box Boxer throws the parcel far away, but the hungry puffball manages to climb into the house through the chimney, through which he is then sent flying again. Kirby returns with the [[Leaf]] ability as a camouflage, which the rest mistake for a Christmas tree and decorate. Overloaded with ornaments, Kirby trips and flees.

To prevent Kirby from entering, [[Magolor]] activates a reinforced barrier with spikes around the house. This proves to be effective, as Kirby can't break through this wall with any ability he tries ([[Sword]], [[Fire]], [[Fighter]], [[Bomb]]). He decides to use [[Animal]] to dig his way around the wall enter the house from under the ground. Kirby digs fiercely and eventually resurfaces, only for him to discover that it's already summer.

[[Kirby]] appears to be fired up, only to be seen roasting [[Mint Leaf|Sweet Potatoes]] with the [[Fire]] ability. The race starts with Kirby's gas signal.

Contestants whack each other as they race. [[King Dedede]] takes the lead, and describes his idea of the manga is a romance story with him starring as the Princess of the Moon.

He carries the restrained King Dedede up the [[Dreamstalk]] towards [[Floralia]]. Determined to retrieve the apple, Kirby chases Taranza up the Dreamstalk. [[Key Dee]] warns Kirby of the dangers that lie ahead, but the latter shrugs them off, so Key Dee follows him. Taranza's many minions attack Kirby at his command, but using the [[Archer]], [[Beetle]] and [[Bell]] abilities, Kirby quickly finishes them off, leading Taranza to question King Dedede's status as the strongest in Dream Land. King Dedede happliy denies such a role, so Taranza leaves him and goes after Kirby.

By the time Kirby arrives, he is exhausted, so he takes a nap with the [[Sleep]] ability. Taranza tries to take advantage of this; however, Key Dee spots a [[Miracle Fruit]], which is capable of enhancing one's powers, and maneuvers around Taranza to toss it to the hungry puffball. Now powered up with [[Hypernova]], Kirby inhales Taranza, King Dedede, Key Dee, and even the manga panels. From within their inhaled panels, the three comment on this conclusive turn of events.

A circus troupe arrives in Dream Land. Caught up in the excitement, [[Kirby]] performs some tricks with the [[Circus]] ability, and [[Paintra]] offers joining the circus act. [[Meta Knight]] appears, unwilling to forfeit circus stardom to Kirby. They have a contest, where Meta Knight displays perfect balance while Kirby chaotically pulls off the whackiest stunts, including spinning his friends and foes alike instead of plates. The audience loves Kirby's performance, and Paintra explains to Meta Knight that the most important part of the circus is entertainment. Meta Knight decides to work with Kirby.

They prepare for a collective trapeze trick as the excited crowd awaits. However, Meta Knight swings with too much force, and he goes blasting out of the circus tent and circles the entirety of [[Popstar]] before returning from the other side, covered in remnants of all the areas he zoomed through. The stunt ends up being a huge success with the audience, and Meta Knight rejoices.

Knuckle Joe offers Kirby his brush, but Kirby's bedhead gets arguably worse, as the pyramid shape is replaced by hand-like figures.

It's another peaceful day in [[Dream Land]]. [[Kirby]]'s friends notice that he's coughing, and Kirby explains that something is stuck in his throat. When clearing it, Kirby ends up spitting out an entire school, which he imhaled whole when having lunch. The bell rings, prompting Kirby to run to the school and begin the lesson as the teacher with his friends as the students. However, he announces that all the periods as lunch time. [[King Dedede]] smacks Kirby while pointing this out and sees that Kirby appears to be crying. However, when he apologizes, Kirby laughs: the liquid is actually milk running out of his nose.

The class is rambunctious, and King Dedede wants to transfer after seeing that many of the students are final bosses. Maths class begins, and Kirby demonstrates the subject by inhaling a pile of ten apples. The class freaks out when they're unable to answer how many apples are left. Kirby also panicks, as there's only four pages left to finish the chapter. He decides to start the graduation ceremony right away with a tearful speech, reminiscing about fun times they've never actually had at the school. Kirby announces that they've graduated from licking the lids of ice cream cups. Then, the school disappears into thin air, and Kirby says he has something stuck in his throat again.

The group finds the flattened Taranza, and Kirby blows Taranza back up like a balloon. Taranza is sent flying from the extra air and bounces around the [[Lollipop Land - Stage 6 EX|area]] like a pinball. Taranza writes in his diary again, throwing insults at Kirby. He then decides to use a cursed effigy to bring misfortune to Kirby, but requires a piece of his hair. Taranza tries to grab a hair from Kirby, but is upset to find out his opponent doesn't have a single piece. [[Meta Knight]], who was reading manga, overhears Taranza's ramblings and gives him toliet paper, misinterpreting the latter's frustration.

Kirby and friends venture on in the sweet land. Taranza eavesdrops and gets stuck in gum. As he fails to free himself from the gum, he sees Kirby find the star-shaped donut and head home. Taranza angrily scribbles in his diary again. Sometime later, the exhausted Taranza returns to Dream Land. He runs into Kirby and wishes not to have anything to do with the puffball for the day. However, Kirby offers Taranza the star-shaped donut as a compensation for the donut he ate earlier that day. Kirby leaves Taranza incredulous. Taranza later writes this turn of events down in his diary, happily munching on the star-shaped donut.

It gets caught under the rain and seeks shelter in a dumpster. Kirby finds it here and brings it home, where he takes care of and plays with it. Days fly by, and the two grow attached to each other.

An upset Taranza watches from a distance. He makes the mistake of telling Marx it was his hand, and Marx returns its original owner the favor by blasting Taranza.

Here he finds [[Box Boxer]], who noticed [[Galactic Nova]] approaching [[Popstar]]. [[Marx]] shows up, revealing that he plans to use the Nova to take over Dream Land, to which [[King Dedede]] retaliates as the current ruler of the land. Just then, a rainbow appears over the town. Kirby and friends find everyone asleep. [[Meta Knight]] comes and warns them that the rainbow was created by Marx with the power of the [[Fountain of Dreams]] and is the cause of their sleep, and evacuates his friends when the warning proves to be somewhat late. Marx is ready to claim victory, but in that moment, a new group appears and contests it. This crowd is the Shadow Army, the nightmare counterparts of Dream Land's residents that came to this world when Dream Land was put to sleep. With [[Shadow Kirby]] in the lead, they intend to replace the residents of Dream Land with the power of the Galactic Nova. However, the trio stands in their way.

As Meta Knight prepares to strike, Shadow Kirby readies the [[Dimension Mirror]], and Meta Knight's blade crosses with [[Dark Meta Knight]]'s.

After a long time quarreling, Shadow Kirby accidentally says Kirby's wish instead od his own. A flash occurs, everyone and their shadow counterpart have fun at the festival, and even the grumpy Shadow Kirby ends up enjoying it.

For the dinal destination, Kirby and the others climb the [[Dreamstalk]] up to [[Floralia]].

Adjusting to the cold, [[Kirby]] reveals a full-body wool coat the size and shape of himself, while [[Meta Knight]] and [[King Dedede]] stack up on masks and hats, respectively, although this proves to be less effective. To kill some time, Kirby reads a book with a flashlight, which brings false hopes to the rest who thought it was the sunrise.

As time passes, the residents grow tired, and [[Cool Spook]] and [[Gao Gao]] fall asleep. Kirby makes a hot tub out of a giant cup of coffee, which Meta Knight joins in for. [[Marx]], who was eavesdropping, decides to make some mischief and tries to hypnotize Kirby to sleep. However, he falls victim to his own trap.

As he tries to prove the superiority of his idea to the Waddle Dees, he rolls into a tree, knocking down a wasp nest and angering its residents. Covered in wasp bites, he continues rolling, passing through burning flames for [[Mint Leaf|Sweet Potato]]es and ending up in a bog. He realizes the difficulty of rolling and trains intensely, until he is ripped to the point his new human-like musculature could prevent him from rolling.

[[Kirby]] runs into the school as the bell rings and makes it to class. Everyone is greeted by [[Claycia]]. The day starts with art class, and Claycia asks the students to make a clay pot. However, the student council barges in, enforcing discipline with a harsh surprise inspection. Indignated by Kirby's lack of clothes, they cover him up as censorship for the manga's target audience. Kirby agrees to put on a uniform, a feminine outfit that prompts [[Meta Knight]] to propose. As he rambles on, Claycia clobbers him with her pot, excusing her act as a practical example of the necessity of care towards arts supplies.

Principal [[Box Boxer]] is made aware of the racket the class is making and decides to pay them a disciplinary visit together with vice-principal [[Magolor]]. [[Marx]] sets up a trap for the principal, which the latter triggers upon entrance. Kirby confronts Marx but accidentally strikes at Box Boxer instead. With the principal's safety as an excuse, Magolor throws out bombs at his superior, causing him to fly out of the window. After briefly feigning mourn, Magolor prepares to take over his position. However, Box Boxer happens to bounce back up with a transported trampoline. Chaos ensues upon his return.

This alerts King Dedede, who figures out that the sneeze is the source of this behavior. Before long, most of Dream Land's residents also start running around, giggling and inhaling.

The mob spots King Dedede and playfully chases after him, so he takes cover behind a tree. He decides to prevent Kirby from sneezing others by giving him a mask. However, to get his hands on one, he needs to cross past a crowd of Kirby-fied residents. With no other option, he runs out giggling past the rest. He successfully reaches the pharmacy, only to find Kirby at the counter. The mob hears Kirby's greeting and gathers around the pharmacy, cornering King Dedede. Kirby sneezes, and the ending is left open.
