Video game series by [[Nintendo]] and [[HAL Laboratory]]. Known in Japan as [b]Hoshi no Kirby[/b] (Kirby of the Stars). Best known for its surprisingly dark lore despite the game's overall cute asthetics.

There is also an anime adaptation that goes by the same name in Japan. When it was dubbed in English, it was given another name: [i][[kirby:_right_back_at_ya|Kirby: Right Back At Ya!]][/i]
