The Best Kirby Character Season 3 Submissions are Open Now Closed!
Submit all your blorbos from the Kirby universe here! :D
You'll notice there are already 8 characters on the bracket, these characters are Taranza, Daroach, Bandana Dee, King Dedede, Shadow Kirby, Dark Meta Knight, Marx, and Magolor! There's no need to submit these characters since they're automatically in ^-^
Those of you who haven't been around for Season 1 or Season 2 may be confused about why Kirby and Meta Knight aren't here, and the answer is that Kirby won Season 1, and Meta Knight won Season 2, so they will be left out of Season 3 to give others a chance at winning!
Qualifications for submissions
The characters you submit must:
Be a Kirby character, no OCs allowed!
Show signs of sentience! (ex: While Whispy Woods is a tree, he has definitely shown signs of sentience and emotions! Therefore, you can submit Whispy Woods here!)
Not have already been denied entry from Season 1 and Season 2 (you can check if a character has been denied by looking in the #poll character: denied! tag!)
Be submitted using the google form found below! If you try to submit a character using the askbox, it will be ignored and deleted!
Rules for Submissions
Do not submit Kirby or Meta Knight, since Kirby won Season 1 and Meta Knight won Season 2!
Do not submit the characters already in the bracket (Taranza, Daroach, Bandana Dee, King Dedede, Shadow Kirby, Dark Meta Knight, Marx, and Magolor!)
You can submit multiple characters, but please don't submit the same character multiple times!
Characters from the anime, novels, and manga are allowed! However, manga, novel, and anime versions of already existing characters (specifically characters that we already have a large understanding of from the games, like Kirby, Marx, Magolor, Meta Knight, etc.) will not be allowed! Manga characters that play small roles in the games will be allowed!
Only a total of 64 characters will be allowed in the bracket, and 8 slots have already been filled, so only 56 characters will be making it onto the bracket!
Certain characters can be submitted together! (For example (but not limited to): Adeleine and Ribbon, Tiff and Tuff/Fumu and Bun, Lololo and Lalala, and the Mage Sisters!)
Kirby villains/monsters are allowed!
Even if a character has enough votes to qualify, they may be turned down from the tournament! The mod will make a public announcement for the character, and explain why.
And that's basically it! If you have any questions about the rules, qualifications, or about whether or not a certain character fits the requirements, feel free to ask! ^-^
You can submit a character here:
You can find a regularly updating (unless mod is asleep or busy) list of submitted characters (along with the amount of submissions they've received) here!
Need help remembering a character? You can check the Kirby Wiki or WiKirby!
The number of submissions needed for a character to be safely on the bracket will depend on the number of submissions this gets, but it'll be somewhere along the lines of 3-6 submissions!
Even if a character doesn't have enough submissions by the time it closes, they'll still have a chance to get in the bracket by winning their Preliminary Round Poll!
The Submission Form will be open until Monday, August 21st at 9pm EST or until this receives 350+ submissions! Submissions are now closed!
Tagging some other tournaments for visibility! Feel free to ignore this if you want!

i will write a huge post on why i feel like lots of kirby novels fail at some point dont you worry.
but i think i just want to highlight one major point i grew to dislike about them and it's the way they present the main cast in most of the books.
i don't buy the fact that kirby, king dedede, bandana dee and meta knight are friends. i just don't.
i don't see any healthy chemistry between them. bandana dee is the only nice person among those selfish people driven by their ulterior motives (food for kirby and dedede, fame for just dedede, a good challenge for meta knight). and while these traits ARE parts of their character in their canonical portrayals, the way it's executed in the novels just makes me wonder...
why these people hang out together? why they go on adventures together? why books want us to believe that they like each other?
only kirby and bandana dee's friendship feels genuine and even then at times its kind of one-sided. kirby is not a very good friend at times, not listening to what bandee has to say and being rude to him. you gotta wonder why bandee even bothers being a good friend to that brat. but at least i can see the chemistry, somewhat. kirby himself is not too hopeless. if he was always unlikeable itd kill the entire book series.
my main issue is that mie takase pushed all three out of four of them way too far into comedic sociopaths territory and while it can be entertaining from time to time, it's moreso frustrating on more regular basis. kirby is not "it's always sunny in philadelphia" so don't make popstar gang act like the cast from that show.
while their characters got softened up over time, especially dedede's, novels still did very little to sell me on the idea that these four are friends and this just kinda, sucks? because they are my favorite characters in the series. found family lover right here and all that. so the fact that novels kinda. have the content that i should be enjoying but also not really giving it to me either, is, something, alright.
