Meta Knight

Appearance
Meta Knight has a similar body structure to Kirby, but is deep blue in color and is somewhat more modest; wearing a mask, boots, gloves, shoulder pauldrons, and a cape, which he wraps around himself when not in combat. Despite being slightly smaller than Kirby in the video games, Meta Knight is larger than him here, which helps to demonstrate that at least in the anime, Kirby is still a child.

Personality
Unlike Kirby, Meta Knight has a full speaking role. He takes on the role of a mysterious but dedicated swordsman and mentor, helping both Kirby and Tiff when they are in need. In both the Japanese and American versions, his presence is announced through the soundtrack with a Latin-style sting with guitar and maracas, and this is complimented in the American version with a stereotypical Spanish accent for the masked swordsman.

Meta Knight is demonstrated to be very wise and experienced, having survived a war against Night Mare Enterprises which defeated nearly every Star Warrior in the universe. He is cautious, extreme, and takes on the attitude of a survivalist, though despite his demeanor, he still cares for the people he has sworn to protect. Despite his usual stoic demeanor, Meta Knight does display a wide range of emotions. His eyes will change color depending on his mood. If he is happy or calm, they are blue. If he is thoughtful, they are green. If he is angry, they are red. If he is amused, they are pink.
