Chapter 5 of Revenge of Meta Knight is the fifth of seven chapters in this game-mode from Kirby Super Star and Kirby Super Star Ultra. In this stage, Kirby invades the left wing of the ship, and causes severe damage to it, and then battles and defeats Heavy Lobster near the right wing, damaging that as well.

Intro cutsceneEdit

In the opening scene, the Halberd takes its first severe blow, as the Combo Cannon - along with the front deck of the ship - are destroyed. Kirby flies off toward the left wing of the ship to deal more damage there.

OverviewEdit

The timer is reset to 7000 as Kirby lands on the left wing of the ship. The path forward is pocked with bottomless pits and enemies, but a Warp Star can be found to the right.

The Warp Star takes Kirby to the leftmost flank of the ship, where wind currents will push him forward. Mr. Frosty ambushes him at the end of this path. From there, another Warp Star will take Kirby to the next area, on the right wing.

An intermediate cutscene shows Kirby moving from one side of the Halberd to the other as the left wing bursts into flame.

The timer is reset to 5000 as a hole appears in the hull of the ship. Kirby jumps in to find himself in the maintenance ducts. Along the way, a side chamber can be accessed which leads to the armory, full of different Copy Essences.

In the next room, Kirby has to avoid Heavy Lobster as it chases him down in an auto-scrolling section. After a while, Kirby can then engage the beast in a static setting. Defeating it destroys the right wing, and leads on to the next chapter.

DialogueEdit

Intermittently, the Halberd crew can be heard by the player through dialogue boxes which pop up as Kirby makes his way through the stage. The following table lists off their dialogue in chronological order:

Axe Knight   Ahh! Main Cannon #2
was destroyed!
「あぁっ!
2連主砲がやられました!
This dialogue does not appear in Kirby Super Star.
Mace Knight     "The main cannon has
been destroyed!"
The cannon's a wreck!
We can't use it!
「主砲がバラバラだス!
つかいもんにならないだス!」
Captain Vul     "Holy cow!
What happened?"
What?! How could this be? 「なんだとぉ!?
そ、そんなバカなっ!!」
Axe Knight     "Kirby is heading
toward the left wing."
Kirby is now heading for
the left wing!
「カービィは現在、
左ウィングにむかっています!」
This is one of the few instances where a dialogue portrait was changed between versions.
Sailor Waddle Dee   You don't think he'd... 「まさかこんどは左ウィングも… This dialogue does not appear in Kirby Super Star.
Captain Vul   Everyone! We need to
keep Kirby away from
the left wing!
「ものどもっ!左ウィングに
カービィを近づけるな!

Retract the sails!
Give more lift to the
left wing!
「セイル収縮!
右ウィングの浮力を下げろ!!」
Meta Knight mentions different wings in each version, suggesting that the original line may have been a mistake.
The Japanese dialogue instead says "lower the power of the right wing".

Hee hee hee."
Wait... I thought of
something. Heeheehee.
「まてよ…
いいことを思いついた。ふふ。」
Captain Vul     "He got into the armory." Has he made it into
the armory?
「武器貯蔵庫にはいられたか。」 This dialogue only appears if Kirby finds the secret armory.
Mace Knight     "He'll be able to
take ANYTHING!"
He has his pick of the
lot now.
「よりどりみどりだスな。」 This dialogue only appears if Kirby finds the secret armory.
Captain Vul     "Ready?" Are we all ready? 「準備はいいな?」
Axe Knight     "Is this OK, Sir?" Are we really doing this? 「本当にやるんですか?」
Mace Knight     "Are you positive
about this?"
Hmph. I know we'll
regret this.
「ぷん。
きっとこうかいするだス。」
Captain Vul     "Be quiet! This is
our only chance!"
Shut it! Now is our only
chance to finish him!
「やかましい!やつを倒すのは、
今しかあるまいっ!」
Captain Vul     "Don't fail again!
Release Heavy Lobster!"
This time we will succeed!
Heavy Lobster, away!
「2どめのしょうじき!

you say?!
「なにぃっ!

He can't see at all!"
Oh no! He can't tell
his left from his right
anymore!

Boss: Heavy LobsterEdit

 
Kirby has blinded Heavy Lobster using Paint
Main article: Heavy Lobster

After chasing Kirby through the ducts of the Halberd, Heavy Lobster hops up to a higher area, crashing through a pile of crates. At this point, it can be attacked by Kirby. Heavy Lobster battles by making large leaps, charging forward, and shooting various objects out of its claws, including mini robots, cones of fire, and a living blob creature which hops forward. Kirby can inhale the blob to gain the Paint ability, and then use the ability to blind Heavy Lobster, preventing it from seeing where Kirby is for the rest of the fight. However, doing this is not required to defeat this boss.
