    I love this little guy. My favorite detail is how he has a yellow ribbon on his spear in Kirby Fighters 2. Yellow ribbons are apparently medals of honor given to public role models in Japan. Such a sweet detail if it's intentional.

    I think it's worth noting that one of Bandana Dees idle animations from Star Allies has him hold his spear up and stare at the tip with starry eyes, similar to how the Waddle Dee holds up the crystal shard and stares at it in Kirby 64. I also think it's a little bit unfair to describe him as a blank slate. Sure, he doesn't really show his personality outside of Battle Royale, but he DOES have an entire theme song about training to be stronger and popular.

    I’d like to think that Bandana Dee is the same as the Waddle Dee in Kirby 64. During Kirby 64, he probably didn’t wear his bandana outside of strength competitions. However, due to his great help with saving the world, King Dedede probably gave him the honor of being in command of the Waddle Dees. He might’ve also given him his spear, too. To differentiate himself from the other Waddle Dees, Bandana Dee wears his bandana. That’s just my headcanon, however.

    Y'know, with how little Kirby has actual mainstays to the series, it was interesting to see Bandana Dee rise to prominence and share similar roles to the main 3. It kinda feels like a quart now with how much this plucky little guys appeared alongside them. I've always had a soft spot for. Sure he's mostly a blank slate but he's also a go getter, a brave warrior, a hero and the strongest of his species (not saying much but it's a pretty big gap). He's special cause he rose up to help, sometimes that's all you need to capture someone's heart.

    I always just assumed Bandana Dee was the Waddle dee from 64, it makes sense. they both fill the position of “right hand man” to the king, and they’re both the only instances of a waddle dee being Kirby’s friend. I mean, going on an interstellar adventure with the king is certainly enough to move you up in the ranks.

    5:30 Wow. I cannot tell if I love that name or hate it. Badana Waddle Dee may not seem like much (cause he kinda isn't) but he is still something special. He's a prime representitive of an underdog. He is a part of a species of the most basic of enemies of all and still get's to be player 4 and have the same "multiple in game appearance" title as the veteran's. That says something. To me it says "doesn't matter what group you're a part of or where you come from. You can do something special". To me, he deserves to be "everyone's idol". He's someone everyone can relate to and I think that's why the community holds him in such high regard. He may not be the greatest or most fleshed out but he tries and that's what matters. Also, too bad he didn't get into Samarai Kirby. I liked that gag.

At least the Yellow & Blue Toads are playable in New Super Mario Bros games from Wii onward, although it would be nice if the Paper Mario Partners & NPCs appeared more.

    Waddle Dees are debatably the best Kirby enemies. They're adorable with way more personality than most would expect, but still loyal to their king and willing to lay down their lives for the kingdom and ruler. They're only rivaled by the maraca enemies from 64 because of just how cute those guys are. Bandanna Waddle Dee is the epitome of all Waddle Dees without a doubt.

    Honestly, to me Bandanna Dee is a character that shows growth just as much as the other mainstays Dedede and Meta Knight. They start out weak and afraid, but loyal. Even in their earliest appearances, they can be seen trying to improve (such as in the Superstar minigames). Even though they never really play a major role in any game, each time they do they show growth, such as Befriending Kirby (who they were previously terrified of), going out of their way to help others, and even when they can't directly help, such as in Robobot or Triple Deluxe, they are shown to go out of their way to provide support. In Star Allies, they are the only one of the main three to not be corrupted by the Jamba Heart, and in the newest entry, while it is entirely optional, they go right alongside Kirby throughout Forgotten Land, being the first to help build waddle-dee town. Again, this is completely optional, but every single cutscene that is not pre-rendered has a variant with Bandanna Dee in it. Even the pre-rendered cutscenes that play and the beginning and end have them alongside Kirby. With the confirmation that the timeline isn't fully linear, I think Kirby Battle Royale might take place a bit after King's Revenge, but before Return to Dreamland, thus why they are using the parasol rather than their trusty spear. They may not be complex, but man I love the little details throughout the games.

    For the Bandana Dee is the 64 Dee theory, I think it's Parasol Dee (he's not generic look at his parasol compared to the other parasol dees). The intro skit as you mentioned in the video has Parasol Dee as the 64 Dee. There's also another skit with him as the 64 Dee. Parasol Dee was seen as the Waddle Dee in Marx's trailer. There was also a Waddle Dee in K64. Why wouldn't they be the same? Not to mention since minigames aren't canon, Parasol Dee was the only Waddle Dee that helped Kirby that had the same colors as K64 Waddle Dee. So I consider Parasol Dee and K64 Waddle Dee the same. Maybe he just didn't bring his Parasol. It's not like he would've looked generic anyway since we've seen him in Kirby Super Star without his Parasol.

    Something I find interesting, and likely ultimately irrelevant in this context, is that as of Forgotten Land (which had not been released at the time this video was made) Bandanna Waddle Dee is the _only_ member of the main cast to have dialogue outside of spin-offs since Super Star Ultra, having dialogue when you speak to him in Waddle Dee Town in Single Player, though he doesn't speak in cutscenes. This is also not counting the little quote each Dream Friend has in their pause screen description during Guest Star mode.

In fact, he's actually second only to Kirby himself! Great video, man. I look forward to when you eventually tackle who is essentially my comfort character!

    With a new game with the arrival of the 3D world to the series, new character development and lore! As these videos are a year old, I'm gonna talk about the new stuff with our three supporters in it, well two of them as bandana dee is just player 2. At the start of the game, both the masked warrior and his majesty are sucked into the new world before the puffball. Dedede (as if it's tradition at this point) gets kidnapped and mind controlled while MK manages to resist and act as the guardian of waddle dee town while Kirby is away. At the start of world 4, the arena opens up with the lone swordsman challenging the pink demon to a duel in the first arena's cup to hone both their skills. At the end of the 4th world, we fight the mind controlled penguin again who has aligned himselfwith the new big bads introduced. Beating him grants him an opening fo kidnap the new pal of the game Elfilin and now kirb has to chase him to world seven to get him back. Reaching the boss level, it's shown that the king has started to break free a bit from his puppeteers, but quickly put in his place with a wooden boar mask (idk man). Once finally free, the beast pack come at the pair and three newly saved dees. Trying to flee, triple D notices one waddle has fell and quickly rushes to his rescue, only to realize that the group won't make it if they aren't stalled. With a mighty throw, he hurls his subject through the elevator door and prepares for a brawl to give his subjects and best friend/rival time to confront the leader of the madness.

Side note on the mini games' canonicity: they are not exaggerated at all, as not only do the characters all scale significantly higher than anything they do in any of the minigames (the craziest mini game is the star allies meteorite batting at around solar system level iirc, whereas the top tiers all scale to low multiversal through mainline story content), but I recall reading that someone on the dev team around the time of star allies stated that they are intended to show off how powerful kirby and co are directly without being constrained by plot, as there isn't really a reason to have the cast do what they do in minigames IN the main story.

    it was kinda confirmed that that was Bandana waddle in crystal shards In Bandana waddle's description (some where) they said the words "unlike other waddle dees, this waddle actually chooses to help Kirby" which if that wasn't the same person, that would mean that they are completely forgetting a whole character. in an official Kirby book, they call him waddle dee, and he doesn't have a bandana, and they say he's Kirby's best friend and helps him a lot on his adventure, which there is only 1 waddle dee that does that. and finally, in star allies, they show choose Bandana Dee to represent the Waddle dee during the friend skits (we see him next to Adeline&Ribbon, King DDD, and Kirby. Also, sometimes they choose Parasol dee, but that's because he doesn't have a hat) Also, on a completely different note, we can see from the endings IMPORTANT pictures that conically Kirby used Sword and had Bandana Dee as his buddy on fighter 2

    I only just discovered these videos, and they make me wonder how Dedede, Meta Knight, and BandDee will appear in Kirby and the Forgotten Land. As far as I know, they haven't been seen in the one trailer we have to work with, but they're downright integral to the franchise so surely one or more of them must be in there somewhere. EDIT: so as of this edit we got another trailer revealing BanDee as the P2 character, and Meta Knight as some type of boss fight. That just leaves Dedede as the only one absent. Granted he COULD be there and we haven't seen him, but he wasn't in Amazing Mirror at all either so...we'll see. EDIT 2 ELECTRIC KIRBALOO: so as of THIS edit we got yet another trailer, this time briefly showing Dedede, cloaked in shadow with new animal pelt robes. I can only assume he's been brainwashed and is fighting Kirby against his will...for like the 7th time now. Regardless that's all 4 characters accounted for: Kirb, 3D, Meta, and Dee! Now I'm left to wonder if the Dream Friends will appear in those collectible figures. That WOULD be a neat way to recycle those fancy new 3D models...

    For the "is Bandana Dee the same Waddle Dee as the one from 64?" theory, I've always mostly been against. Idk, I just never solid and there's really no evidence for it. It may have inspired what BWD would become but I don't think they're one in the same. Plus why would he go from wearing a bandana to not wearing a bandana to wearing one again. I just think it was some random resourceful Waddle Dee who had time to kill going on adventure. I like to call him Fred. I couldn't tell ya why I just like it.

    Co-Op Character of the newest thing. There is some cute scenes he can have with Kirby as they work on the same goal of saving the waddle dees. But besides that, nothing that pushes his character, having a similar status as the mascot character, who can replace him in single player. Unless more can be found. Though his combat ability has improved defoently and made his spear copter a bit better, as the only form of the spear in the game if I recall.
