Kirby

Kirby is a fictional character and the protagonist of the Kirby series of video games owned by Nintendo and HAL Laboratory. His first game was created in 1992, and the pink puffball has made its way into the hearts of fans of all ages. Not only is he one of the cutest Nintendo characters of all time, but he is also one of the most powerful.

Kirby is the type of character who makes you remember not to judge a book by its cover. He may appear to be a cute pink blob, but he's actually one of the most powerful beings in the universe, thanks to his ability to absorb the powers and abilities of anyone he swallows. Kirby uses this ability to protect the galaxy, specifically his home planet of Planet Popstar. Kirby: Right Back at Ya! is an anime starring this cheerful and energetic round ball. Kirby has become an extremely popular character, particularly in Japan, where he consistently tops Nintendo character popularity polls.

First appearance: Kirby’s Dream Land (1992)
