Notes[]

  • With the exception of newly-added lines of dialogue, the Japanese script is mostly unchanged from Kirby Super Star to Kirby Super Star Ultra. Most of the differences in the English scripts for the games is a result of a different translation. The Kirby Super Star Ultra translation is more faithful to the Japanese script than the Kirby Super Star one.
  • In the Japanese script, certain characters often end their sentences in certain ways; this is not translatable into English.
  • In the Japanese script, Captain Vul and Mace Knight use the first-person pronoun わし (washi), which is often used in fiction to represent men of older age. わし can also mean "eagle," but this is likely a coincidence.
  • In the Japanese script, Captain Vul and Axe Knight refer to Meta Knight as メタナイトさま (Meta Knight-sama), with the さま (sama) suffix being used to show respect for him; this honorific is translated as "Sir" in Kirby Super Star and "Lord" in Kirby Super Star Ultra.
  • Captain Vul and Meta Knight refer to the others with the second-person pronoun おまえ (omae). This word was formerly honorific, but is now typically derogatory referring to an inferior or equal, but can also have acceptable use in a highly informal relationship. The derogatory interpretation is used for Captain Vul in the translation.
  • Prologue:
    • The dialogue remains identical in both English versions and has no translation differences.
    • In the English script, Meta Knight claims that Dream Land has a lazy lifestyle. In the Japanese script, Meta Knight describes Dream Land as being full of corruption/depravity, with だらく (daraku) meaning corruption/depravity. The Japanese word meaning "to be lazy" would be だらける (darakeru), which is very similar.
    • Meta Knight also claims he will rule Dream Land in the English script, but the Japanese one instead he claims he will rebuild/reform it (変える) without any explicit claims of ruling.
  • Chapter 1:
    • In Kirby Super Star, Meta Knight commands those on the deck to assume combat mode; in the Japanese script and in the Kirby Super Star Ultra translation, Meta Knight additionally commands all others to prepare for takeoff.
    • In Kirby Super Star Ultra, Axe Knight specifically addresses Captain Vul when telling that Kirby has entered the rocket valve.
    • When Kirby is behind the nozzle (where he first encounters Heavy Lobster), four lines of dialogue play out automatically in Kirby Super Star before takeoff. In Kirby Super Star Ultra, there are now seven lines of dialogue, the first three of which require manual input and feature added dialogue for Axe Knight and Captain Vul, while the latter four progress automatically, adding a new line of dialogue for Sailor Waddle Dee.
  • Chapter 2:
    • In Kirby Super Star Ultra, Captain Vul refers to the Halberd as "My flying fortress," appearing to claim ownership of it, but this is not the case in the Japanese script, where he instead says この空中戦艦 (Kono kūchū senkan), where この (kono) instead means "this." Furthermore, while he calls it a "flying fortress," a title also used by Kabula, the word used for the Halberd in the Japanese script is 空中戦艦 (kūchū senkan), which more literally translates to "air battleship"; Kabula is referred to in Japanese with 飛行砲台 (hikō hōdai), which more closely means "flying fortress."
    • Meta Knight mentions Grape Garden in Kirby Super Star, but calls it "Grape Gardens" in Kirby Super Star Ultra. In the Japanese version, Meta Knight says グレープ・ガーデン (Grape Garden), but it features an interpunct, unlike the typical Japanese spelling for Grape Garden, グレープガーデン.
  • Chapter 3:
    • In the Japanese script and in the Kirby Super Star translation, Sailor Waddle Dee questions whether or not Kirby has been taken care of. In the Kirby Super Star Ultra translation, this is more vague, no longer being a question and instead trailing off.
  • Chapter 4:
    • In the Kirby Super Star translation, Axe Knight's initial dialogue is in active voice and uses the "we" pronoun as the subject, but in the Kirby Super Star Ultra translation, it is in passive voice, using Dyna Blade as the subject. The Japanese script lacks any pronouns, but this is not unusual.
    • When Kirby encounters the Meta-Knights, Meta Knight addresses Kirby first in the Kirby Super Star translation, but ends the sentence with Kirby's name in the Kirby Super Star Ultra translation, being more in line with the Japanese script.
    • In the Kirby Super Star translation, Captain Vul says "our power," but in the Kirby Super Star Ultra translation, he instead says "the power of Meta Knight"; in the Japanese script, he is instead referring to the Meta-Knights themselves (メタ・ナイツ), whom Kirby is currently fighting. The use of Meta Knight's name in the Kirby Super Star Ultra translation is likely a mistranslation.
    • When Kirby enters the Halberd, Captain Vul suggests leading Kirby in front of the "twin cannon" in the Kirby Super Star translation, but is more vague and says "one of the cannons" in the Kirby Super Star Ultra translation. In the Japanese script, he specifies the "main cannon" (主砲), lacking the "twin" description of the former's translation or the vagueness of the latter's translation.
    • Later on, Axe Knight also refers to the armament as the "twin cannon" in the Kirby Super Star translation, but instead refers to it as "Main Cannon #2 in the Kirby Super Star Ultra translation; the Japanese script uses 2連主砲 (2-Ren Shuhō) in this instance, which translates to "double main cannon" and is the official Japanese name for Combo Cannon. "Combo Cannon" never appears in the English script, with the name only appearing when fought in The Arena in Kirby Super Star (using its English name in all regions). The name "Main Cannon #2" is likely a mistranslation of the Japanese name, as 主砲 (shuhō) means "Main Cannon" and its name features a numeral "2" rather than one in kanji, 二.
  • Chapter 5:
    • In Kirby Super Star, Mace Knight, Captain Vul, and Axe Knight react to Combo Cannon being destroyed; in Kirby Super Star Ultra, three more lines are added, giving additional dialogue to Axe Knight and Captain Vul, as well as a line of dialogue from Sailor Waddle Dee.
    • After Kirby damages the left wing, Meta Knight commands to "increase right wing power" in the Kirby Super Star translation, but instead to says to "give more lift to the left wing" in Kirby Super Star Ultra. In the Japanese script, Meta Knight instead commands to lower right wing power instead of increasing power to either wing.
    • When Kirby enters the ducts, four lines of dialogue play out automatically in Kirby Super Star. In Kirby Super Star Ultra, there are now seven lines of dialogue, the first three of which require manual input and feature added dialogue for Captain Vul and Mace Knight, while the latter four progress automatically, adding another new line of dialogue for Mace Knight.
    • In Kirby Super Star Ultra, Axe Knight's line of dialogue additionally has him mention finding Kirby on the radar.
  • Chapter 6:
    • When Kirby is at the lower portion of the ship, Captain Vul says "The bottom's weak..." in the Kirby Super Star translation and "Not much we can do to him there..." in the Kirby Super Star Ultra translation. In the Japanese script, the meaning is more clear, saying the bottom of the ship is undermanned (手薄).
    • In the Japanese script, when commenting on the conditions near the bottom of the ship, the characters speak using only the adjectives: cold (さむい), high (たかい), and scary (こわい).
    • If Kirby enters Mace Knight's secret room, he only mentions "tomatoes" in the Kirby Super Star translation, but says "food and 1-UPs" in the Kirby Super Star Ultra translation. The Japanese script specifies tomatoes (トマト) instead of generic "food," but also mentions 1-UPs (1up). It is possible the change from tomatoes to "food" is because the room contains several food items instead of just tomatoes (although it does feature a standard tomato and a Maxim Tomato).
    • When Captain Vul berates Mace Knight for hoarding the food, he insults him first in the Kirby Super Star translation, but remarks about his hoarding before insulting him afterward in Kirby Super Star Ultra. The latter is more in line with the Japanese script.
  • Chapter 7:
    • In Kirby Super Star, Captain Vul initially cries about the ship going down; in the Japanese script and in the Kirby Super Star Ultra translation, he additionally vocalizes his need to evacuate.
    • In Kirby Super Star, when Captain Vul goes to escape, he only announces his leaving; in the Japanese script and in the Kirby Super Star Ultra translation, he additionally requests for the others to not have any hard feelings about him escaping first.
    • In the Kirby Super Star translation, when Axe Knight and Mace Knight express a final desire to get rid of Kirby in the crashing ship, Meta Knight accepts their desires and thanks them for helping out. In the Kirby Super Star Ultra translation, he expresses how death is approaching and that they can spend their time as they wish before apologizing internally. すまない can refer to remorse or an apology, but it can also mean "thank you" in a very casual situation (as an informal variant of すみません sumimasen); it is also often used by male speakers.
    • When Kirby enters Meta Knight's room, Meta Knight declares that Kirby should "prepare to die" or "meet [his] doom" in the Kirby Super Star and Kirby Super Star Ultra translations, respectively. In the Japanese script, Meta Knight instead says いざ勝負, which is a declaration to fight, rather than having any explicit mentions of death or doom.
