— Cast Description • Kirby's Epic Yarn |
Octopeas are enemies in the Kirby series, debuting in Kirby's Epic Yarn.
Physical Appearance[]
Octopeas are small, orange octopi that are the children of Capamari.
Games[]
Kirby's Epic Yarn and Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn[]
Octopeas can only be seen during the battle with Capamari and the Capamari portion of Yin-Yarn's battle. Octopeas attack Kirby and Prince Fluff by using a surge attack, similar to Dolphin's. The enemy will dance and spin around a bit and then move in a set direction, either vertically or horizontally. These enemies can be whipped up and thrown at Capamari, stunning him and revealing his weak spot.
Etymology[]
Octopea is named after the species it is based on, the octopus.
Its Japanese name, オドルタコス (Odorutakosu), is a portmanteau of the Japanese word for a hopping dance, おどる/踊る (odoru); and the Japanese name for Capamari, イカスタコス (Ikasutakosu).
