This is the fifth version of my Kirby Lore chart, modified from Version 4 after finishing my quest to play every single Kirby game and consulting the premier Kirby lore expert, Meteorz. This version is also moreso focused on style and presentability, as I wanted to make a print/poster of it once I had finally considered it "done." As well as series knowledge, creating this absolute behemoth required a ton of research involving multiple wikis and old, deleted Miiverse posts. I also took in some information and suggestions from posts of previous versions of the chart. I know Kirby lore isn't meant to be looked into too deeply, but that's the joke!
My favorite lore bits are:
-Magolor wants you, the player, to give him your money
-The real-life Kirby 30th Anniversary Concert heavily implied that the setting of Kirby and the Forgotten Land is Earth via a singer named Neichel
-Zan Partizanne has given most supporting characters nicknames while she was the spokesperson for the Kirby JP Twitter. In return, Magolor gave her a nickname once he took over the position
-Taranza is a simp
-Goku is in here somewhere; good luck finding him!
Older Versions
Version 4: This is the second "full revision" of the chart, due to the second version being lost from a damaged C: Drive. This chart was focused on leaning into the maximalism that people commonly associate with Kirby lore (despite it really just being mostly cheeky references). Due to the better system of organization, this is when I was finally able to track numbers; this chart has 336 characters, 530 line connections, 32 icon connections, and 24 extra facts
Fun Fact: Version 4 was 9.46 MB, which is 1/10th of Among Us's file size. Fortunately, I've gotten a little better at compressing image sizes since then
Version 3: Mostly just some minor additions after the release of Kirby's Dream Buffet. This is also the first chart I posted online (to Reddit). Gave me a lot of good feedback for what would become Version 4
Version 2: The first thing I sought to do when making a full revision of the original chart was to space things out more to allow for more flexibility in connections (adding labels), as well as giving myself the restriction of not letting connection lines curve so readers could never confuse one line for another. The key was also expanded, letting me add definitions for some of the more complicated connections.
Version 1: It's honestly kind of weird seeing the original version of this chart. This one does have the advantage of being tighter than my other charts, but that tightness also makes it relatively hard to follow
