Bluster Kong is a genius, he invented capitalism, is the base of society, as he manufacturers every barrel, all forms of transportation, and every weapon the society uses, his demise would unironically send them back to before the stone age.

I like to think this as canon because of how fun it is.

When I woke up today, I didn't expect to see Bluster Kong perform a literal Super Saiyan-style transformation into the Leo Luster that was inside of himself all along. The fact that that portion of this video was actually taken straight out of the show is kind of amazing.

Bluster is S+ Tier while Leo Luster was disqualified from the list for being too good and that it would be unfair to stack him against mortal men, hence the fact that he was in only one episode, since him being on screen for any bit longer, would destroy the very fabric of the world we live in.

How is it that the video starts off as pretending, but becomes more and more genuine as it goes on? Oddity aside, the DKC show has a special place in my heart. It's actually a Canadian cartoon and I was able to watch it through On Demand; falling in love. While it's certainly aged and isn't that good, there's some real effort in it and the show can still be rather enjoyable. There's multiple moments of surprisingly good writing and characters such as DK, King K. Rool and Bluster himself are always entertaining. The voices in the cartoon have become the main voice many people hear in their heads when they think of the characters from the games. I can't help but think of the cartoon when someone mentions DKC. It's flawed, but it's certainly not trash. There's legitimently good things in this show and Bluster is one of them. He's always been. *Cementing how to design for the greatest villian*

Haven’t watched this yet but I sincerely hope its unironic. Bluster is genuinely a really well written foil for DK

16:41 Ok, i agree with this tier list but I'd just want to bring up that Funky Kong is much more powerful in the games. He's basically a god tier given that he defeats K. Rool in 64, invented the barrel cannons (according to DKC1 and mario super sluggers), and is a weapons manufacturer who can swing a surfboard hard enough to hit a home run (the force of which would apparently cause a tornado, according to the math someone on tiktok did). Funky Kong in the games is easily the strongest, smartest and nicest character. However, I'm glad to see that you've picked up on Eddie the mean old Yeti's power to control timelines, though. I'm sure a lesser youtuber (like everybody who pans this cinematic masterpiece) would have let that slip by.

Wait. So Bluster is responsible for the manufacturing of the barrels, like the barrels used in EVERY Donkey Kong game to date. That makes bluster not only the most important Donkey Kong Character, but the most important video game character of all time. Without barrels, Jumpman would have nothing to jump over. He'd just be Man, and nobody wants to play as MAN! Without Bluster, Jumpman (or Man now) would never gain the confidence to legal change his name to Super Mario Bros. and save video games forever. What would we talk about now, Rocks? Checkers? (boring). Praise Bluster for his gift to us. The world would be a much darker, less danker place without him. Thank you Bluster🥹
