Watermelon

This article or section is under construction. Therefore, please excuse its informal appearance while it's being worked on. We hope to have it completed as soon as possible. No reason has been specified.

Watermelons are a recurring fruit within the anime series; Kirby: Right Back at Ya!. In this series, they are Kirby's favTemplate:Orite food, and he has no problem swallowing them whole. Other characters speculate that Kirby loves watermelons because they are round like he is. The word 'Watermelon' is one of the few words which Kirby is able to say.

Other appearances

Main article: Food

In the Kirby video games, watermelons do occasionally appear as common Food items, though typically in slices. They do not play nearly as large a role, as Kirby's favTemplate:Orite food in the video games is the Maxim Tomato.

Trivia

• The reason why Kirby prefers watermelons in the anime is a pun: in Japanese, the word for watermelon, スイカ ("suika"), is pronounced very similarly to the word for "inhale", 吸い込み ("suikomi").
