Kirby of the Stars ending skits

At the end of the later episodes of the Japanese version of Kirby: Right Back at Ya! exclusively, several ending skits play, starting with Episode 72: Waddle While You Work, and ending with Episode 100: Fright to the Finish. These skits last roughly two to five seconds and play right after the end of the episode, but just before the Kirby ☆ Step! credits.

Overview

The sound effect that plays during each of the skits.

Each of the skits take place in an abstract setting and usually involve either Kirby, King Dedede, or both. Typically, the skit involves King Dedede attempting to prank or attack Kirby, but results in his plan backfiring, usually by being blown up by a bomb. There is no sound in these skits aside from a specific cartoonish sound effect which is used to mark the transition toward the credits theme.

List of skits

The following is a list of each skit that appears in the anime, along with information regarding the origin episode, a brief description, and other notes as appropriate:

King Dedede jumps up in shock, and then the motion of him and the bombs freeze as the camera swivels all the way around Dedede.
