'''Barbar'''{{ForeignTitle}} is an invincible [[enemy]] first encountered in the [[Onion Ocean]] level in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]''.
'''Barbar'''{{ForeignTitle}} is a gigantic aquatic eel-like creature who likes to reside in holes in the wall and reach out to try and eat [[Kirby]] and his friends if they try to swim past. All Barbars are large, though some are bigger than others, a few much so. Barbar is completely invulnerable to attack, so it must be treated as a course obstacle to avoid rather than something to fight. If Kirby gets sucked into its mouth, the player needs to shake the controller or mash the stick to get Kirby out again.


Barbar resembles a giant eel-like creature and can come in various sizes, some of which are truly gigantic. They reside exclusively in the water, embedded in walls, ceilings, floors, or sometimes in pits in water currents, and at regular intervals will lunge outward in an attempt to swallow any passing swimmers.
Barbar first appeared in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'', and has since reappeared in a handful of other 2.5-D [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' games]]. It has a few relatives, namely the [[Hypernova]]-inhalable [[Land Barbar]] and the lava-dwelling [[Iron Barbar]].

Barbar debuted in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]''. If a character is caught inside of a Barbar's mouth, the player will need to shake the Wii Remote to escape. Regardless of how quickly the escape is made, however, being swallowed and spat out will usually result in losing whatever Copy Ability Kirby may have had.
Barbar debuted in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'', first appearing (and primarily being found in) stages in [[Onion Ocean]]. It also appears in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe]]''.


A relative of the Barbar, the [[Iron Barbar]], lives exclusively in stages 1 and 3 of [[Dangerous Dinner]] on [[Halcandra]], and lies in wait in lava beds.
