- This article is about the setting of the anime series. For Dream Land in a more general context, see Dream Land.
Dream Land is the principal setting of the anime series Kirby: Right Back at Ya!, and where most of the episodes primarily take place. Located on Planet Popstar[1] (though this is only explicitly mentioned in the Japanese version), Dream Land is characterized by tropical green grasslands and patches of woodland and deep forest, bordered and run through by more rugged terrain, mountains, valleys, ravines, sheer cliffs, and an ocean and rivers. Only one major settlement is located in Dream Land: Cappy Town, which is overseen by Castle Dedede.
Dream Land is characterized by a largely moist and tropical climate, and as such, snowfall and ice formation in the region is unheard of outside of the unnatural weather conditions caused by outside forces in the episodes Dedede's Snow Job and The Chill Factor.
Locations within Dream Land[edit]
Dream Land itself can be subdivided into a number of more specific locations as follows:
- Babagahara - a dense jungle home to exotic wildlife.
- Booma-Dooma Volcano - a tall active volcano located a few miles from town.
- Cappy Town - a small town where the Cappies live, led by Mayor Len and subject to Castle Dedede.
- Castle Dedede - a large castle perched on a hanging cliff ruled over by King Dedede.
- Cat's-Eye Lighthouse - a blue lighthouse with a mirror resembling a cat's eye that sits on the coast.
- Dyna Blade's Nest - a rugged caldera where Dyna Blade roosts.
- Eastern Forest - an ancient woodland home to Acore and several intelligent animals.
- Kabu Canyon - a rugged rocky valley where Kabu is situated.
- Kirby's House - Kirby's residence, located just outside of Cappy Town.
- Whispy Woods Forest - a local forest watched over by Whispy Woods.
Trivia[edit]
- Based on a comment from Tiff[2] in The Chill Factor, Dream Land has similar seasons to the real-world Southern Hemisphere since the episode takes place during a January summer.
