The '''Jamba Heart''' (pieces of it are referred to as '''Dark Hearts''') is a black crystal heart which appears in ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]''. It contains a great evil known as [[Void Termina]], and is the central object in the storyline of ''Star Allies'', as [[Hyness]] attempts to revive the dark god within.

It is unknown where the heart originally came from, but it is first seen on [[Jambandra]] at [[The Divine Terminus]], under the possession of [[Hyness]] and his generals; [[Francisca]], [[Flamberge]], and [[Zan Partizanne]].

The Jamba Heart (pieces of it are referred to as Dark Hearts) is a black crystal heart which appears in Kirby Star Allies. It contains a great evil known as Void Termina, and is the central object in the storyline of Star Allies, as Hyness attempts to revive the dark god within.

It is unknown where the heart originally came from, but it is first seen on Jambandra at The Divine Terminus, under the possession of Hyness and his generals; Francisca, Flamberge, and Zan Partizanne. At the beginning of the Kirby Star Allies Story Mode, Hyness attempts to awaken Void Termina from within the heart, by removing the spears of the heart on it, but fails to do so, instead shattering it into many smaller pieces which scatter across the galaxy. Many of these pieces land on Planet Popstar, thus immediately involving Kirby and his friends in the crisis. As the pieces fall onto Dream Land, they begin to change various inhabitants' behavior, making them generally more aggressive. Conversely, a side effect of the blast launches a Friend Heart directly at Kirby, settling inside of him and giving him the power to change his enemies into friends.

Throughout the course of the story, the Mage-Sisters are busy collecting as many of the scattered dark heart pieces as they can in order to return them to the shattered Jamba Heart on Jambandra. Kirby attempts to stop them, but despite giving them a thrashing, they ultimately get away with the hearts they collected. Kirby chases them across the galaxy and eventually reaches Jambandra, where Hyness is mending the still-incomplete heart. Kirby fights and trounces Hyness, but in an act of desperation, he sacrifices himself and the Mage-Sisters to the heart to fully restore it and revive Void Termina. The heart itself is not seen again after this point.

Role in Heroes in Another Dimension[edit]

Another Jamba Heart appears in Heroes in Another Dimension, formed from darkness that "left its master"[1] (most likely either Hyness or Void Termina). The spears that were seen in the Story Mode also appear at the end of every main dimension, serving as collectables. Once Kirby and company arrive at the Divine Terminus-like arena in Final Dimension, the Jamba Heart arises from the pool. The four spears shatter it, revealing Corrupt Hyness inside and initiating his boss battle. After this point, neither heart nor spears are seen again.

Other appearances[edit]

In Super Kirby Clash, the Jamba Heart can rarely appear during Aeon Hero's dimensional rift attack.
