メタナイト
Dark Meta Knight is a grey-colored Meta Knight with a scar on his mask and Dark Mind's right-hand man who appears in "Kirby and the Amazing Mirror" and has become a recurring character. At the beginning of the game, after Meta Knight rushes into the Mirror World, Dark Meta Knight attacks Kirby (who is taking a walk) and slices him into four, unintentionally giving him backup against the corrupted Mirror World. Then, Dark Meta Knight challenges Meta Knight to a duel that has similar features to the cowboy minigame from "Kirby's Adventure". Dark Meta Knight wins the duel and Meta Knight (who is defeated), gets sent to the Dimensional Mirror, and Dark Meta Knight slices the mirror into pieces and gives it to some other Mirror World inhabitants, causing Kirby and his copies to pursue him for the rest of the game until they finally collect all the Mirror Shards which leads to the Dimensional Mirror which Dark Meta Knight is inside. After his defeat, Kirby fights Dark Mind and defeats him, bringing back peace to the Mirror World. Dark Meta Knight also appears in "" and possesses Queen Sectonia. In the extra mode "Dededetour!", after defeating Queen Sectonia DX, the Dimensional Mirror appears (confirming that Queen Sectonia had Taranza steal the mirror for her and every time she looked in the mirror, the more Dark Meta Knight possessed her). King Dedede then fights Dark Meta Knight and defeats him. Kirby can also fight Dark Meta Knight in "The True Arena" as one of the Final Four, and appears in "Kirby Star Allies" as a Dream Friend through an update.
