This article is about the battleship in the general context. For the stage in Kirby's Epic Yarn and Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn, see Battleship Halberd (stage). For the Robobot Armor mode, see Halberd Mode.

The Battleship Halberd (often referred to in short as simply Halberd) is a giant flying warship which Meta Knight commands and uses as his main base of operations. With the help of a motley crew of Popstar's residents — most notably the Meta-Knights, Captain Vul, and Sailor Waddle Dee — Meta Knight uses the ship as a display of his power, authority, and leadership. The Halberd is equipped with two large and four small bat-like wings, a series of powerful engines fueled by the Reactor (which is powered by Wheelies), and a large array of guns, the most notable of which being the mighty Combo Cannon. Among its remarkable arsenal, the Halberd is also equipped with a giant robot known as Heavy Lobster. At the bow of the ship is a giant replica of Meta Knight's mask, making it hard to mistake who the ship belongs to. The Halberd is capable of operating in the air, underwater, and even in deep space.

The Halberd was first introduced in Kirby Super Star, where it is the primary setting of the game Revenge of Meta Knight, wherein Kirby infiltrates the ship and gradually blows it to pieces in order to stop Meta Knight from using it to take over Dream Land. Since then, the Halberd has made a number of notable reappearances in the Kirby series. For instance, it is repaired and made operational again in Kirby: Squeak Squad, with some stages of Secret Sea and Gamble Galaxy taking place upon it. Additionally, in Kirby's Epic Yarn, the Halberd is a stage in Dream Land. Furthermore, in Kirby: Planet Robobot, Kirby and Meta Knight team up and fuse the Robobot Armor with the Halberd into the mighty Halberd Mode in order to take on Star Dream.

The Halberd appears as a prominent stage and setting in the Super Smash Bros. series, starting with Super Smash Bros. Brawl. It also appears in the anime series Kirby: Right Back at Ya!, where it is used by Meta Knight and the Dream Landers to take on eNeMeE by assaulting his space fortress.

Design[edit]

The Battleship Halberd has gone through many notable design changes. In its first appearance in Kirby Super Star, the Halberd featured rotund proportions with a bulbous bow and a layered dome-shaped superstructure. Kirby: Right Back at Ya! and, later, Kirby: Squeak Squad featured a design with similar proportions but had larger cannons, a different color palette, and added rocket engines to the wings. The Halberd underwent a major redesign in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. This new design removed the bulbous bow, slimmed the proportions of the ship, and adopted a superstructure and armament more accurate to real-world battleships. Kirby: Planet Robobot streamlined the Super Smash Bros. Brawl design, scaling back its armament, enlarging the Combo Cannon, employing bolder colors, and adding a new flame pattern to the ship's mask.

Game appearances[edit]

Kirby Super Star / Kirby Super Star Ultra[edit]

Main article: Revenge of Meta Knight

The Halberd makes its debut appearance in Kirby Super Star (also appearing in Kirby Super Star Ultra) where it is the principal setting and central plot point of Revenge of Meta Knight. In this first appearance, Meta Knight and his crew prepare the ship for take off, intending to use its might to subjugate all of Dream Land (presumably wrestling control away from King Dedede). Seeing this as a threat, Kirby rides in on the Warp Star and attempts to board the ship multiple times, being repulsed all but the third time by the crew. Once Kirby manages to get on board, Meta Knight's crew panic and frantically try to get rid of Kirby as he worms his way through the ship destroying critical components. He starts by destroying the Combo Cannon, then demolishes the left and right wings while defeating Heavy Lobster, and finally strikes a critical blow by disabling the Reactor and freeing the Wheelies powering the ship. From here, Kirby makes his way to the bridge as most of the crew evacuate and battles Meta Knight directly, defeating him in an honorable sword duel. After this, Kirby rushes to escape the collapsing ship by riding one of the freed Wheelies while Meta Knight tries his best to take Kirby down with the ship. Ultimately, Kirby is able to hop off the ship as it crashes into the ocean, riding off into the sunset, having saved Dream Land from another threat to the peace.

In addition to its appearance in Revenge of Meta Knight, the Halberd is also briefly a setting in the Kirby Super Star Ultra-exclusive mode Meta Knightmare Ultra, where Meta Knight (for some reason) destroys his own ship.

Kirby: Squeak Squad[edit]

In Kirby: Squeak Squad, the Halberd is seen laying at the bottom of the ocean in the level Secret Sea, which is a nod to its fate after the events of Revenge of Meta Knight.[1] Several stages take place inside the ship, including the boss fight with Meta Knight. During this fight, the Halberd takes off again, serving as a transition to the final level, Gamble Galaxy. Here, the first stage takes place on the deck of the Halberd, though now in space, showing off the ship's ability to achieve escape velocity. It uses its design from Kirby: Right Back at Ya!.

[edit]

Main article: Battleship Halberd (stage)

The battleship serves as the final stage in Kirby's Epic Yarn and Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn. Here, Kirby uses the Star Shooter transformation in a horizontal-scrolling shooter level to take on the many enemies of the battleship. He also combats the Combo Cannon and the Reactor. The background music for this level is an acoustic, jazzy rendition of the exterior Halberd background music from Kirby Super Star (though the in-game description for the song's CD in the American version incorrectly states it as being from Kirby's Dream Land). A similar acoustic rendition of the same theme can be heard in a stage medley on the soundtrack for Kirby Super Star Ultra.

Prior to the stage itself, the Halberd is briefly featured in one of the cutscenes, namely, the one where Meta Knight is captured by Yin-Yarn.

In Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn's Sub-Game Slash & Bead, Battleship Halberd is the setting of Stage 4, once again featuring both Halberd cannons and the Reactor. Additionally, one of the Fuse Bead Mats for Slash & Bead depicts the Halberd.

Kirby Mass Attack[edit]

In Kirby Mass Attack, although absent from the main story, the Halberd appears as Stage 5 of the Sub-Game Strato Patrol EOS, appearing out in deep space past an asteroid belt. The Kirbys approach it from the side at the end of Stage 4 and, after a battle with the Meta-Knights, enter and fly through a central metal hallway full of enemies and traps before battling Meta Knight as the boss of the stage.

Kirby: Planet Robobot[edit]

See also: Halberd Mode

The Halberd also appears in Kirby: Planet Robobot under its current design. In the introductory cutscene for Kirby: Planet Robobot, Meta Knight orders the Halberd to attack the planet-sized spaceship sent down by the Haltmann Works Company to take over Popstar. The battleship does not make it very far before it is shot down by a powerful laser from the colossal spaceship. Meta Knight is then captured by the Haltmann Works Company, though not before entrusting the Halberd to his crew for repairs.[2]

Just before the final battle with Star Dream, Meta Knight returns with the fully-repaired Halberd, and asks Kirby to hop on board the ship. Kirby instead uses the Robobot Armor to scan it, forming the Robobot Armor's Halberd Mode. Using this new weapon, they battle Star Dream and its many forms in space above Popstar. Towards the end of the battle, Meta Knight ejects Kirby and the Robobot Armor from the ship, returning the Halberd to normal. It is seen again in the ending cutscene, where Kirby waves at it before chasing it.

The Halberd Mode is also used to engage Star Dream Soul OS in The True Arena. In Meta Knightmare Returns, the Halberd can be seen in the background of every Rest Area.

Kirby Air Riders[edit]

The Halberd appears in Kirby Air Riders as a part of a City Trial Field Event, where it rides high above Skyah, requiring a machine with significant gliding capabilities to reach. Riders can board it to collect numerous patches. Many are strewn about the main deck and wings, and an All Up patch is placed on the tip of the Halberd's tower, which must be collected to clear a Checklist task. There may also be a Legendary Air Ride Machine found at the center deck. A few challenges in the Road Trip mode also require the rider to land on it from afar, with one in particular providing the player a Flame Wings item. If one of these challenges is attempted with a machine with little gliding prowess, a hint will appear encouraging the player to try again with a machine better suited for flight.

The Nintendo Today! post describing the Halberd's City Trial event is entitled "Field Event: The Battleship Halberd's on the attack!", with this very description also appearing in-game when the Halberd arrives. However, the Halberd simply flies above Skyah and does not pose a threat to riders.

Super Smash Bros. series[edit]

The Halberd has a prominent position in the Super Smash Bros. series starting with Super Smash Bros. Brawl. In this game, it was introduced as a stage, which has the fighters tour around the ship using a separate floating platform which occasionally docks on the main deck of the ship itself, where the fighters then have to avoid attacks from the Combo Cannon. This stage would reappear in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Role in The Subspace Emissary[edit]

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, the Halberd plays a prominent role in the Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary. Here, the ship is stolen from Meta Knight and used by the Subspace Army to deliver Shadow Bugs and Subspace Bombs across the world. While under the enemy's control, the Halberd engages with the Great Fox and its Arwings, ultimately bringing them all down, while the other characters try to chase after the ship. Eventually, a group of heroes along with Meta Knight himself manages to get back on board and wrestle control of the ship away from the Subspace Army. Later on, Meta Knight sacrifices the Halberd to a blast from the Subspace Gunship in order to buy the others some time to launch an assault using their smaller and nimbler vessels.

According to a post on the Smash Bros DOJO!! website, at some point prior to the events of Subspace Emissary, Tabuu launches an attack with the Subspace Army to steal the Halberd for his own. King Dedede engages Meta Knight during the attack, unknowingly making it impossible for Meta Knight to repel the Subspace Army. This event is not seen in the game.[3]

Other appearances[edit]

The Halberd also appears as a trophy in both Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS. In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, the Halberd appears as a support spirit, with a ★★★★ Legendary class and granting the "Armor Knight" bonus when equipped. It can only be purchased at Funky Kong's Shack.

In Kirby: Right Back at Ya![edit]

The Halberd rises behind Castle Dedede to take on eNeMeE and his Destroya fleet.
I have been working on this since my arrival here in Dream Land! Sword Knight and Blade Knight helped me a great deal! They were sworn to secrecy of course. It is called...Battleship Halberd!
— Meta Knight, in Cappy Town Down

The Halberd features prominently in the last three episodes of Kirby: Right Back at Ya!. Here, it was constructed in secret underneath Castle Dedede by Meta Knight and his apprentices Sword Knight and Blade Knight, who have been working on it ever since they first arrived in Dream Land. The purpose of this project was to construct a weapon powerful enough to take on eNeMeE and his massive space station. Its existence is not revealed to the rest of the Dream Landers until Cappy Town Down, right after Cappy Town is destroyed by an invading Destroya sent by Night Mare Enterprises. The Cappies are reluctant to help man the ship at first, but when even more Destroyas come to pulverize Dream Land, Kit Cosmos arrives and persuades them to join in.

From there, the Halberd takes off and shows off its power by destroying every Destroya with a single shot from its mighty cannons. The Halberd then flies into outer space and initiates warp speed to travel to eNeMeE's Fortress. On the way, it is attacked by Heavy Lobster, but Kirby and the crew manage to destroy it before it damages the main engine. Once the Halberd arrives at the fortress, it is set upon by the defensive turrets and Destroya armada. These prove to be too much for the Halberd to handle on its own, but backup comes in the form of three rogue Destroyas piloted by Kirby's allies. The Halberd manages to make it into the fortress and deliver its crew intact to the interior chamber, but it is eventually destroyed when more turret fire and Destroyas eventually do it in. The explosion from the ship does manage to take out the last of the defenses inside the fortress, however.

Differences from the games[edit]

The design of the Halberd is similar to its original design in Kirby Super Star, featuring a similar keel and a rounded bridge superstructure, but it has a smoother silver appearance, larger weapons, and wings equipped with rocket engines. Unlike the games, it is not powered by Wheelies or the Reactor, but instead features a singular main engine that is powered by an unknown fuel source. Also unlike the games, this Halberd is equipped with energy shielding and a warp drive that allows the ship to enter warp speed. In place of the Combo Cannon is the Gravity Disruptor, a powerful twin-barrel plasma beam turret capable of taking out Destroyas in a single hit.

In the Kirby novel series[edit]

The Halberd approaches Chiffon Star in Kirby: Meta Knight and the Puppet Princess

In the Kirby novel series, the Battleship Halberd is a high-tech spaceship owned by Meta Knight, first appearing in Kirby: Meta Knight and the Puppet Princess. He and his crew live there, and use it to travel across the universe. The Halberd is capable of using warp navigation, allowing it to travel to extremely far destinations in a short time. The ship also has weaponry that is powerful enough to be considered the strongest in the universe. Its most powerful weapon is the Combo Cannon, which can blow anything to smithereens.

The Halberd is home to Meta Knight, Captain Vul, Sword Knight, Blade Knight, and the Meta-Knights. When they are not on Popstar, Meta Knight and his crew are typically found travelling through space in the Halberd. Captain Vul is the commander in charge of the Halberd, and Axe Knight's job is to manage communications with the ship. Meta Knight is sometimes dragged into Kirby and King Dedede's matters after receiving a transmission from them. When Meta Knight is with Kirby and his friends, the Halberd is their choice of transportation whenever they need to travel to a far-off location.

In the first novel, Kirby and the Dangerous Gourmet Mansion?!, Meta Knight travels in a small blimp instead of the Halberd for unknown reasons.

In Kirby's Labyrinth Rescue!, Meta Knight and Waddle Dee chase the Lor Starcutter with the Halberd, to keep an eye on Magolor.

Although the Halberd never appears in Kirby and the Search for the Dreamy Gears!, Meta Knight's airplane is named after it.

In Kirby: Meta Knight and the Knight of Yomi, Meta Knight and the Meta-Knights protect the Halberd from a pirate raid. Later, Kirby, King Dedede and Waddle Dee board the Halberd to meet with Meta Knight and share with him their story about the imposter Meta Knight. Beryl, disguised as Captain Vul, contacts the Halberd and tells them to come to Planet Magnus. With everyone still on it, Meta Knight flies the Halberd to Planet Magnus. After Kirby rescues Meta Knight from the Magnus Hellhole, he brings him back to the Halberd, where he is taken care of by doctors. When Meta Knight comes out of Yomi to fight Morpho Knight, his body disappears from the Halberd. By the end of the story, a tea party is hosted in the Halberd between Meta Knight and the Meta-Knights.
