The show follows [[Kirby (anime character)|Kirby]], taking the role of a [[Star Warrior|space-faring hero]] who has a child-like demeanor and is incapable of regular speech. He crashes [[Kirby's Starship|his starship]] into the kingdom of [[Dream Land (anime)|Dream Land]], where he stays in order to battle [[monster]]s summoned by the land's greedy and tyrannical [[King Dedede (anime character)|King Dedede]] from the evil intergalactic corporation [[Night Mare Enterprises]]. Over the course of the show, Kirby gradually becomes stronger and more experienced - aided by his close friends [[Tiff]], [[Tuff]], and [[Meta Knight (anime character)|Meta Knight]] - while consistently foiling the plans of King Dedede, his assistant [[Escargoon]], and the main villain [[eNeMeE]], who has largely conquered the universe and is trying to destroy the remaining Star Warriors who oppose him. Eventually, Kirby and his allies launch an attack on [[eNeMeE's Fortress|eNeMeE's space fortress]] in [[Fright to the Finish|the final episode]], thus putting an end to Night Mare Enterprises, liberating the universe, and depriving King Dedede of his main means of harassing his subjects.
