Back in 2001 Kirby got his own anime in Japan, titled Kirby of the Stars, which managed to faithfully adapt the world of Dream Land with a blend of 2D and 3D animation. The anime was eventually localized as Kirby: Right Back at Ya! by 4Kids and saw multiple re-releases over the years, such as through a dedicated Wii channel in Europe and the 3DS Nintendo Video service.
Now, as part of the Kirby 30th Anniversary Concert celebrations, it’s been confirmed the Kirby anime is back with a blu-ray release.

All 100 episodes will be included in a HD resolution and it’s slated to hit Japan in Winter 2022. An international release has yet to be confirmed.

Whether it’s an exciting new entry in a series long established or a weird experiment meant only for the dedicated, Tom is eager to report on it. Rest assured, if Nintendo ever announces Elite Beat Agents 2, he’ll be there.
