'''Magolor Soul''' is the final boss of [[Extra Mode]] and [[The True Arena]] in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'' and its remake, ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe]]'', fought after [[Traitor Magolor|Magolor]] EX is defeated. He is based on [[Magolor (second form)|the form]] that [[Magolor]] takes as the final boss of the main story; however, he is now a very dark teal color and wears a more elaborate [[Master Crown|crown]] with a spikier build. Additionally, while the original form only shows the third eye in his mouth once the second phase begins, Magolor Soul shows it from the start. Most of his attacks in this form are the same as the ones he uses in the second phase of his battle in the main game. However, they now do more damage or look different, such as his Deadly Needle attacks now having thorns and being done in different locations. He also gains a new attack that combines the attributes of the [[Grand Hammer]] and [[Snow Bowl]] [[Super Ability|Super Abilities]].


'''Magolor Soul''' is the final boss of Extra Mode in the game ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]''. He is fought after '''Magolor EX''' is defeated, replacing his unnamed second form from the original mode (though for the sake of clarity, that form will be described here as well). He has a much more menacing appearance in this form than his old one, such as being more of a bluish-black col{{o}}r and now has three eyes. Most of his attacks in this form are the same as the ones he used in the second phase of his battle in the main game. However, they now do more damage or look different, such as his portal spike attacks now having thorns and being done in different locations. He keeps his previous attacks of using his own dark versions of the Super Abilities like in the original battle, but now Magolor Soul can use a new attack that combines the attributes of the [[Grand Hammer]] and [[Snow Bowl]] powers.
==Attacks==
===Extra Mode===
Compared to his [[Magolor (second form)|Story Mode counterpart]], all of Magolor Soul's attacks are souped up, and he has a few new ones.


Magolor Soul also appears as the final boss in [[The True Arena]] of ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land''.
The following lists all of Magolor Soul's attacks he uses in his Extra Mode battle in both versions, as well as The True Arena in the original Wii version. Attack names listed in italics are used in the second phase only.


==Attacks==
Although not officially considered an attack, if Kirby still held on to the Ultra Sword Super Ability from the last fight, Magolor Soul begins the battle by sending a shock wave that immediately removes the ability and destroys it. The shockwave deals no damage but does deal knockback and can cause other player Kirbys to lose their ability.
The following lists all of Magolor Soul's attacks in the Main Game of Kirby's Return to Dream Land (despite not being called Magolor Soul in that mode). Attacks in italics are used in the second phase of the fight only.

|'''ブラックホール'''<br>''[[Black Hole]]''
|{{center|This is Magolor Soul's first attack only if Kirby still had Ultra Sword from the previous fight. Magolor Soul opens an unguardable black hole in an attempt to suck Kirby or his friends in, all the while causing the entire background to swirl around it in the original Wii version.

The first enemy will always carry the ability Kirby ditched for the Super Abilities in the previous battle (or a hammer if he had [[Hammer]], and otherwise a [[Halcandle Dee]] if he didn't have an ability). In ''Deluxe'', the throwing speed is much faster than in the original Wii version.}}
|-
|'''キルニードルワープ'''<br>''Deadly Needles Warp''

|'''ワープホールアタック'''<br>''Warp Hole Attack''
|{{center|Magolor Soul travels into a rift, then exits one on the stage in an attempt to ram Kirby, then going into another rift to do it again. In the second phase, this attack is only performed after the screen is flipped upside-down. Magolor Soul moves slightly faster between rifts compared to Story Mode.}}

|{{center|Magolor Soul slams a giant icy hammer into the ground, creating a shock wave similar to Kirby's [[Grand Hammer]] that leaves behind spikes. While the spikes are out, seven icicles fall from the top of the arena in semi-random locations. After the last one falls and breaks, the spikes disappear but the floor remains slippery for the duration of the next attack.}}

In ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe'', if Kirby loses to him enough times, then Magolor Soul will occasionally throw out one set of Magic Spheres after certain attacks in both phases, presumably to give players ammunition for a Kirby without copy abilities and/or so players can land more hits on him. In phase 1, he'll summon one set after each Calling Shot, while in phase 2, he'll summon one set after every Grand Snow Hammer attack. Instances of this happening are marked with a * symbol in the provided attack orders below.
 
Assuming Kirby still held on to Ultra Sword at the start of this battle, Magolor Soul will always start with a Black Hole attack. Otherwise, for phase 1, he will always start with a Calling Shot (and throw out one of set Magic Spheres if Kirby lost enough times) before attacking in this fixed order on loop as follows:
#Deadly Needles Warp x3
#Magic Spheres x2
#Magolor Cannon Warp
#Warp Hole Attack
#Another Dimension
#Magolor Cannon
#Magic Spheres x3
#Deadly Needles Warp
#Calling Shot
#Magic Spheres*
#Warp Hole Attack
#Magolor Cannon
#Another Dimension
 
In phase 2, Magolor Soul attacks in this fixed order on loop as follows:
#Grand Snow Hammer
#Magic Spheres*
#Ultra Sword
#Monster Flame and Flare Beam [in either order]
#Screen Flip
#Deadly Needles Warp, Warp Hole Attack or Another Dimension
#Magic Spheres x2
#Screen Flip
#Magic Spheres [occasionally]
#Magolor Cannon Warp
#Magic Spheres
#Calling Shot
#Grand Snow Hammer
#Magic Spheres*
#Deadly Needles Warp x3
#Magic Spheres x3
#Another Dimension
#Magolor Cannon
#Calling Shot
#Black Hole
 
===The True Arena===
{{quote|The one-eyed wreath {{color|red|grants power}} but {{color|red|swallows the soul}}... It {{color|red|devours}}, stealing any sense of self... Truly, this {{color|red|crown rules all}}.

Exclusively in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe]]'', Magolor Soul's battle in The True Arena is drastically different compared to the Extra Mode version. All of his attacks have been further souped-up in power and he also has two new attacks. The battle music is now "Supreme Ruler's Coronation - OVERLORD" from ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]'', rather than "C-R-O-W-N-E-D". This time, much like [[HR-D3]], he has two separate health bars.
 
The following tables list all of Magolor Soul's attacks he uses in his True Arena battle across both phases in ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe''.

In Extra Mode, all of Magolor Soul's attacks are souped up, and he has a few new ones. He is referred to by his proper name in this mode as well:

Once his health bar is depleted, Magolor Soul's top two eyes disappear — leaving only the third eye in his mouth intact — and the body then coughs out an apple that can be eaten by Kirby or friends to replenish some lost health before it disappears. After a few seconds, the Master Crown-controlled Magolor Soul abruptly surges with more power as his health bar refills back to full and the fight continues. Shortly after he starts attacking again, Magolor's voice can be heard in the background, calling for Kirby to help him.

#Sand Storm
#Mecha Blaster

#Grand Snow Hammer
#Ultra Sword
#Screen Flip
#Magic Spheres
#Deadly Needles Warp x3 [home in]

Upon depleting his second health bar, Magolor Soul starts to dissipate; but instead of slowly shrinking and returning to normal, he is banished through a [[dimensional rift]] as he cries out to Kirby one final time. The portal then vanishes, leaving the fates of Magolor and the Master Crown unknown.
 
==Trivia==
*When Magolor Soul uses his version of [[Ultra Sword]], his swords resemble the [[Galaxia]], [[Meta Knight]]'s sword.
*During Magolor Soul's defeat animation, a cry that sounds like "Kirby!" can be heard. This sound effect's track is called "Free...Me...Kirby..." ({{furi|解|ト}}キハナ…ッテ……K…r……b……ー!, ''Relea...se me...K...r...b...!'' in Japanese) in the ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe'' Jukebox, supporting this idea.
*The original game's Magolor Soul is the only Soul boss in the series that can be fought in more than one mode — namely, [[Extra Mode]] and [[The True Arena]]. All other Soul bosses are exclusive to one mode. As a result, the only boss exclusive to the original game's True Arena is [[Galacta Knight]]. This is not the case in the remake, where Magolor Soul's boss fight in the True Arena is unique.
*A sphere in the background of Magolor Soul's battle is specifically altered for the True Arena of ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe'' to strongly resemble [[Void Termina]]'s Final Core, with the model and textures reused from ''Kirby Star Allies''.

==Trivia==
{{clear}}
*When his fight in The True Arena is paused, the description<ref>{{cite|A sad shell possessed by the limitless power of the Master Crown, no more than a manifestation of the crown itself.|[[The True Arena]]|Special Page}}</ref> reveals that, true to his name, he is not actually conscious, only a "sad shell" being manipulated by the [[Master Crown]]'s power. This heavily implies that perhaps it was the crown's will, and not Magolor's, that desired to conquer the universe.
*He appears to have some kind of red eye in his mouth, reminiscent of [[Zero]] and [[02]].
*When Magolor Soul uses his version of [[Ultra Sword]], his swords resemble the [[Galaxia]], [[Meta Knight]]'s sword.

— VS Magolor Soul Special Page from Kirby's Return to Dream Land
What remains of Magolor is a sad shell. He's possessed by the limitless power of the Master Crown, imprisoned by the hatred and obsessions of prior rulers. Now...defeat it and free Magolor's soul!
— VS Magolor Soul Special Page from Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe's Extra Mode

Magolor Soul is the final boss of Extra Mode and The True Arena in Kirby's Return to Dream Land and its remake, Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe, fought after Magolor EX is defeated. He is based on the form that Magolor takes as the final boss of the main story; however, he is now a very dark teal color and wears a more elaborate crown with a spikier build. Additionally, while the original form only shows the third eye in his mouth once the second phase begins, Magolor Soul shows it from the start. Most of his attacks in this form are the same as the ones he uses in the second phase of his battle in the main game. However, they now do more damage or look different, such as his Deadly Needle attacks now having thorns and being done in different locations. He also gains a new attack that combines the attributes of the Grand Hammer and Snow Bowl Super Abilities.

Attacks[edit]

Extra Mode[edit]

Compared to his Story Mode counterpart, all of Magolor Soul's attacks are souped up, and he has a few new ones.

The following lists all of Magolor Soul's attacks he uses in his Extra Mode battle in both versions, as well as The True Arena in the original Wii version. Attack names listed in italics are used in the second phase only.

Although not officially considered an attack, if Kirby still held on to the Ultra Sword Super Ability from the last fight, Magolor Soul begins the battle by sending a shock wave that immediately removes the ability and destroys it. The shockwave deals no damage but does deal knockback and can cause other player Kirbys to lose their ability.

Attacks - Magolor Soul  
Attack Description
ブラックホール
Black Hole
This is Magolor Soul's first attack only if Kirby still had Ultra Sword from the previous fight. Magolor Soul opens an unguardable black hole in an attempt to suck Kirby or his friends in, all the while causing the entire background to swirl around it in the original Wii version. If Kirby is caught, he will take massive unavoidable damage.
コーリングショット
Calling Shot
Magolor Soul conjures, then juggles three, four or five random enemies, some with Copy Abilities, before tossing them at lethal velocity at Kirby. The first enemy will always carry the ability Kirby ditched for the Super Abilities in the previous battle (or a hammer if he had Hammer, and otherwise a Halcandle Dee if he didn't have an ability). In Deluxe, the throwing speed is much faster than in the original Wii version.
キルニードルワープ
Deadly Needles Warp
Magolor Soul conjures rifts at various positions, which shoot out spikes. Faster and with more patterns than in Story Mode. Can be done either once or three times in a row.
魔力球まりょくきゅう
Magic Spheres
Magolor Soul conjures and tosses orbs of black energy from varying positions. These can be deflected or inhaled. More of them than in Story Mode.
マホロアほうワープ
Magolor Cannon Warp
Magolor Soul fires a laser beam into a rift, which then systematically fires across the entire stage and air, leaving stars on its last strikes. The firing patterns are different and harder to dodge compared to Story Mode.
ワープホールアタック
Warp Hole Attack
Magolor Soul travels into a rift, then exits one on the stage in an attempt to ram Kirby, then going into another rift to do it again. In the second phase, this attack is only performed after the screen is flipped upside-down. Magolor Soul moves slightly faster between rifts compared to Story Mode.
アナザーディメンション
Another Dimension
Magolor Soul jumps into the background and draws a stencil, the solid parts of which transpose onto the stage as a wall of pain. The shapes are more complex and leave less open space.
マホロアほう
Magolor Cannon
Magolor Soul fires a giant laser beam that covers the entire stage, creating stars where it hits. The laser beam fires much faster and is bigger than in Story Mode.
ギガトンスノーハンマー
Grand Snow Hammer
Magolor Soul slams a giant icy hammer into the ground, creating a shock wave similar to Kirby's Grand Hammer that leaves behind spikes. While the spikes are out, seven icicles fall from the top of the arena in semi-random locations. After the last one falls and breaks, the spikes disappear but the floor remains slippery for the duration of the next attack.
ウルトラソード
Ultra Sword
Magolor Soul takes out two black swords, and swings them one at a time in a manner similar to Kirby's Ultra Sword. He then finishes by swinging them both at once, with the only safe zone being the very middle of the stage. Stars are left behind where the swords are swung down.
ドラゴストーム
Monster Flame
Magolor Soul conjures dark fire dragons, which he directs across the stage, leaving stars in their wake. Magolor Soul's position in the background indicates where the dragons will intersect each time. Compared to Story Mode where the dragons attack from horizontal positions, the dragons in Extra Mode attack from vertical positions.
ミラクルビーム
Flare Beam
Magolor Soul charges up, and then flies around the stage in an orb of dark energy, while another empty orb does the same, similar to Kirby's Flare Beam. Only the orb Magolor Soul is in has Magic Spheres orbiting it.
Screen Flip[conjectural title]
After using four Super Ability attacks in a row, Magolor Soul jumps into the background and flips the screen orientation, making it more difficult for the player to discern direction correctly. He flips the screen right-side up after attacking with either Deadly Needles Warp once, Warp Hole Attack or Another Dimension, followed by two sets of Magic Spheres.
*Most attack names are derived from official Japanese strategy guides unless otherwise stated.

In Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe, if Kirby loses to him enough times, then Magolor Soul will occasionally throw out one set of Magic Spheres after certain attacks in both phases, presumably to give players ammunition for a Kirby without copy abilities and/or so players can land more hits on him. In phase 1, he'll summon one set after each Calling Shot, while in phase 2, he'll summon one set after every Grand Snow Hammer attack. Instances of this happening are marked with a * symbol in the provided attack orders below.

Assuming Kirby still held on to Ultra Sword at the start of this battle, Magolor Soul will always start with a Black Hole attack. Otherwise, for phase 1, he will always start with a Calling Shot (and throw out one of set Magic Spheres if Kirby lost enough times) before attacking in this fixed order on loop as follows:

  1. Deadly Needles Warp x3
  2. Magic Spheres x2
  3. Magolor Cannon Warp
  4. Warp Hole Attack
  5. Another Dimension
  6. Magolor Cannon
  7. Magic Spheres x3
  8. Deadly Needles Warp
  9. Calling Shot
  10. Magic Spheres*
  11. Warp Hole Attack
  12. Magolor Cannon
  13. Another Dimension

In phase 2, Magolor Soul attacks in this fixed order on loop as follows:

  1. Grand Snow Hammer
  2. Magic Spheres*
  3. Ultra Sword
  4. Monster Flame and Flare Beam [in either order]
  5. Screen Flip
  6. Deadly Needles Warp, Warp Hole Attack or Another Dimension
  7. Magic Spheres x2
  8. Screen Flip
  9. Magic Spheres [occasionally]
  10. Magolor Cannon Warp
  11. Magic Spheres
  12. Calling Shot
  13. Grand Snow Hammer
  14. Magic Spheres*
  15. Deadly Needles Warp x3
  16. Magic Spheres x3
  17. Another Dimension
  18. Magolor Cannon
  19. Calling Shot
  20. Black Hole

The True Arena[edit]

The one-eyed wreath grants power but swallows the soul... It devours, stealing any sense of self... Truly, this crown rules all. Free him from this nightmare! Take his hand and save a new friend!
— VS Magolor Soul Phase 1 Special Page from The True Arena in Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe

Exclusively in Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe, Magolor Soul's battle in The True Arena is drastically different compared to the Extra Mode version. All of his attacks have been further souped-up in power and he also has two new attacks. The battle music is now "Supreme Ruler's Coronation - OVERLORD" from Kirby Star Allies, rather than "C-R-O-W-N-E-D". This time, much like HR-D3, he has two separate health bars.

The following tables list all of Magolor Soul's attacks he uses in his True Arena battle across both phases in Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe.

Magolor Soul True Arena attacks - Phase 1  
Attack Description
マホロアほう
Magolor Cannon
Magolor Soul charges up and then fires two giant laser beams stacked on top of each other that almost cover the entire stage, creating stars where they hit. The blind spots are directly underneath and above Magolor Soul.
ワープホールアタック
Warp Hole Attack
Magolor Soul travels into a rift, then exits one on the stage in an attempt to ram Kirby, then going into more sets of rifts to do it again. Instead of two sets going across at the top and bottom of the screen, there's four sets at the top, both diagonal directions and the bottom. Additionally, there's no blind spots at the far sides of the screen for the horizontal sets and Magolor Soul flies through the dimensional rifts faster than in Extra Mode.
キルニードルワープ
Deadly Needles Warp
Magolor Soul conjures rifts at various positions, which shoot out spikes. Once the final rifts close, stars are left behind. Can either be done once, twice or three times in a row. If doing one set, Magolor Soul will leave the rifts open while performing Magic Sphere attacks. If three sets are done in a row, then sometimes the rifts open roughly where Kirby is currently standing.
魔力球まりょくきゅう
Magic Spheres
Magolor Soul conjures and tosses two sets of black energy orbs from the center of the arena. These can be deflected or inhaled. Different patterns from Extra Mode are utilized, including variants with larger spheres.
ブラックホール
Black Hole
Magolor Soul opens two unguardable black holes opposite each other in an attempt to suck Kirby or his friends in. If Kirby is caught in one of them, he will take massive unavoidable damage.
コーリングショット
Calling Shot
Magolor Soul conjures, then juggles seven random enemies or projectiles, some with Copy Abilities, before tossing them at lethal velocity at Kirby. The enemies and projectiles that are juggled and sent towards Kirby are bigger than in Extra Mode.
マホロアほうワープ
Magolor Cannon Warp
Magolor Soul charges up and then fires a laser beam into a rift, which then systematically fires in a rectangular formation across the entire stage before firing one last beam straight in the center of the arena that leaves stars behind.
アナザーディメンション
Another Dimension
Magolor Soul jumps into the background and draws a stencil, the solid parts of which transpose onto the stage as a wall of pain. This attack repeats two more times, with a different stencil pattern each time.

In phase 1, Magolor Soul attacks in a fixed order on loop as follows:

  1. Magolor Cannon
  2. Warp Hole Attack
  3. Deadly Needles Warp
  4. Magic Spheres
  5. Black Hole
  6. Calling Shot
  7. Magolor Cannon Warp
  8. Deadly Needles Warp x3
  9. Magic Spheres
  10. Another Dimension
  11. Deadly Needles Warp x2
  12. Magic Spheres
  13. Warp Hole Attack
  14. Deadly Needles Warp x3 [home in]
  15. Magolor Cannon Warp
  16. Calling Shot
  17. Another Dimension
Kirby... Ugh! I hate having to rely on you, and your vacant stare when I revealed my grand plan was truly insulting. Well, let's see if you can break this thing on my head. If you can, then someday...hee hee heee...I may get to toy with you again!
— VS Magolor Soul Phase 2 Special Page from The True Arena in Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe


Once his health bar is depleted, Magolor Soul's top two eyes disappear — leaving only the third eye in his mouth intact — and the body then coughs out an apple that can be eaten by Kirby or friends to replenish some lost health before it disappears. After a few seconds, the Master Crown-controlled Magolor Soul abruptly surges with more power as his health bar refills back to full and the fight continues. Shortly after he starts attacking again, Magolor's voice can be heard in the background, calling for Kirby to help him.

Magolor Soul True Arena attacks - Phase 2  
Attack Description
Sand Storm[conjectural title]
Magolor Soul summons two sand cyclones and then sends them both into the foreground one after another. The cyclones cannot be guarded and must instead be avoided. Stars are left behind after the cyclones dissipate.
Mecha Blaster[conjectural title]
Magolor Soul summons two launchers and then fires three sets of giant blue fireballs from the background, leaving behind pools of flame when they hit the ground. Afterwards, Magolor Soul charges up and then fires two giant laser beams that start at ground level before quickly sweeping straight up after the fact. Stars are left behind after the laser sweep.
ミラクルビーム
Flare Beam
Magolor Soul charges up, and then flies around the stage in an orb of dark energy, while two empty orbs do the same. Only the orb Magolor Soul is in has Magic Spheres orbiting it.
ドラゴストーム
Monster Flame
Magolor Soul conjures dark fire dragons, which he directs across the stage, leaving stars in their wake. This time, two dragons attack at the same time for the first two sets, one horizontal and the other vertical. For the final set, four dragons attack at once, two horizontal and two vertical. To compensate, the charge-up time is longer than in Extra Mode and Magolor Soul's position in the background indicates the point in which the fire dragons intersect with the others.
Screen Flip[conjectural title]
Magolor Soul jumps into the background and flips the screen orientation, making it more difficult for the player to discern direction correctly. He flips the screen right-side up after performing two more attacks.
ギガトンスノーハンマー
Grand Snow Hammer
Magolor Soul slams a giant icy hammer into the ground, creating a shock wave similar to Kirby's Grand Hammer that leaves behind spikes. While the spikes are out, seven icicles fall from the top of the arena in semi-random locations. After the last one falls and breaks, the spikes disappear but the floor remains slippery for the duration of the Ultra Sword attack.
ウルトラソード
Ultra Sword
Magolor Soul takes out two black swords, and swings them one at a time in a manner similar to Kirby's Ultra Sword. He then finishes by swinging them both at once, with the only safe zone being the very middle of the stage. Each sword swing leaves stars where they hit.
魔力球まりょくきゅう
Magic Spheres
Magolor Soul conjures and tosses two sets of black energy orbs from the center of the arena. These can be deflected or inhaled. Different patterns from Extra Mode are utilized, including variants with larger spheres.
キルニードルワープ

Magolor Soul conjures rifts at various positions, which shoot out spikes. Once the final rifts close, stars are left behind. Can either be done once, twice or three times in a row. If doing one set, Magolor Soul will leave the rifts open while performing Magic Sphere attacks.

Magolor Soul charges up and then fires two giant laser beams stacked on top of each other that almost cover the entire stage, creating stars where they hit. The blind spots are directly underneath and above Magolor Soul.
ワープホールアタック
Warp Hole Attack
Magolor Soul travels into a rift, then exits one on the stage in an attempt to ram Kirby, then going into more sets of rifts to do it again. He will do three sets in both diagonal directions and the bottom while the screen is upside-down and four sets at the top, both diagonal directions and the bottom while the screen is right-side up. Additionally, there's no blind spots at the far sides of the screen for the horizontal sets and Magolor Soul flies through the dimensional rifts faster than in Extra Mode.
コーリングショット
Calling Shot
While the screen is upside-down, Magolor Soul conjures, then juggles seven random enemies or projectiles, some with Copy Abilities, before tossing them at lethal velocity at Kirby. The enemies and projectiles that are juggled and sent towards Kirby are bigger than in Extra Mode.
マホロアほうワープ
Magolor Cannon Warp
Magolor Soul charges up and then fires a laser beam into a rift, which then systematically fires in a rectangular formation across the entire stage before firing one last beam straight in the center of the arena that leaves stars behind.
アナザーディメンション

Magolor Soul opens two unguardable black holes opposite each other in an attempt to suck Kirby or his friends in. If Kirby is caught in one of them, he will take massive unavoidable damage.
*Most attack names are derived from official Japanese strategy guides unless otherwise stated.

In phase 2, Magolor Soul attacks in a fixed order on loop as follows:

  1. Sand Storm
  2. Mecha Blaster
  3. Flare Beam
  4. Monster Flame
  5. Screen Flip
  6. Grand Snow Hammer
  7. Ultra Sword
  8. Screen Flip
  9. Magic Spheres
  10. Deadly Needles Warp x3 [home in]
  11. Magolor Cannon
  12. Deadly Needles Warp
  13. Magic Spheres
  14. Screen Flip
  15. Warp Hole Attack x3
  16. Calling Shot
  17. Screen Flip
  18. Magolor Cannon Warp
  19. Magic Spheres
  20. Deadly Needles Warp x2
  21. Another Dimension
  22. Magic Spheres
  23. Warp Hole Attack x4
  24. Deadly Needles Warp x3
  25. Black Hole

Upon depleting his second health bar, Magolor Soul starts to dissipate; but instead of slowly shrinking and returning to normal, he is banished through a dimensional rift as he cries out to Kirby one final time. The portal then vanishes, leaving the fates of Magolor and the Master Crown unknown.

Trivia[edit]

  • When Magolor Soul uses his version of Ultra Sword, his swords resemble the Galaxia, Meta Knight's sword.
  • During Magolor Soul's defeat animation, a cry that sounds like "Kirby!" can be heard. This sound effect's track is called "Free...Me...Kirby..." (キハナ…ッテ……K…r……b……ー!, Relea...se me...K...r...b...! in Japanese) in the Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe Jukebox, supporting this idea.
  • The original game's Magolor Soul is the only Soul boss in the series that can be fought in more than one mode — namely, Extra Mode and The True Arena. All other Soul bosses are exclusive to one mode. As a result, the only boss exclusive to the original game's True Arena is Galacta Knight. This is not the case in the remake, where Magolor Soul's boss fight in the True Arena is unique.
  • A sphere in the background of Magolor Soul's battle is specifically altered for the True Arena of Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe to strongly resemble Void Termina's Final Core, with the model and textures reused from Kirby Star Allies.
