King Dedede is the main antagonist of the Kirby: Right Back At Ya! anime.
== Why he is De-de-delirious ==
# First of all, he is one of the most unforgetable and memorable characters in the entire show, alongside Escargoon and Kirby himself.
# Ted Lewis did an amazing job expressing him. In fact, his voice is one of the main source why people loves the show.
# His over-the-top personality, portaring him as a blustering, egoistical ruler who is constantly trying to assert his dominance over Dream Land makes him very funny.
# His relation with Escargoon, despite sometimes complicated, is enjoyable to watch.
# His schemes can be funny to watch and rewatch.
# Everytime he did something bad or evil, he gets his karma for his actions.
# The show probably wouldn't be as funny and entertaining without him.
# He spawned several memes on the Internet, including the very famous "I need a monster to clobber that there Kirby!", which he utters in the opening.
# His rivalry with Kirby is still beloved by fans and has never aged badly.
# There are episodes where he can be very funny.
# He had several funny and hilarious moments throughout the cartoon.
# Some episodes do not portray him as the main villain, and make him very sympathetic, since he agrees to cooperate with Kirby to save the world.
# The reason he is a tyrannical villain is because he was unknowingly manipulated by the Nightmare Enterprise for almost every episode.
# He even ended up turning against his supplier to stop him for good, even going so far as to help Kirby and all the other heroes save the world.
# Despite his behavior, there are rare moments where he shows that he actually likes Kirby. Once, when he saw a box that contained Kirby, he ended up mourning the disappearance of his rival, which was very touching of him.
== Bad Qualities ==
# He can sometimes be cruel in certain episodes.
# He often abuses Escargoon and his subjects.
# He didn't realize he was being manipulated by the Nightmare Enterprise until episode 98, where he finally redeemed himself.
# He can also be a Karma Houdini in some episodes.
