Meta Knight, the mysterious anti-hero of the Kirby series was announced for Super Smash Bros. Brawl with the E3 2006 Trailer along with the other newcomers revealed like Snake and Wario. Personally, Meta Knight is one of the characters that I am most excited about playing as in SSBB. He's always been an 
awesome character. I remember the first time I saw him in Kirby Super Star, when he waits for Kirby to grab the Sword ability so he can have an honorable duel with Kirby. However, if he does wait too long, he gets impatient and attacks anyway. Anywho, even though Meta Knight's profile wasn't exactly revealed yet in the Smash Dojo, they revealed all of his special moves in the basic special attacks update! Which is a "How to Play" update, which most people would normally be disappointed with because well, it's a "How to Play" update, and most people already know how.The update reveals moves that Meta Knight never really displayed before in the Kirby games. If he did, I must have missed them, or forgot about them. Well, he has been playable in a lot of Kirby games lately, so maybe I missed them in Canvas Curse or Air Ride or something. Anywho,
I'm very excited about being able to use Meta Knight, he was one of the characters I really wanted in SSB, along with King Dedede because they would represent the Kirby series that I hold so dear. I've been a fan of the Kirby series for a really long time now, so obviously, I want more Kirby characters in. However, since the creator of SSB is Masahiro Sakurai, who is also the creator of the Kirby series, he's a bit modest about using his own characters. I think he should include them anyway, even though he would rather put in other people's characters before his. I certainly would! Kirby has only had one representative since the original, and that was himself. At least he has Meta Knight to accompany him now.

It is pretty well known by Kirby fans that under Meta Knight's mask is a blue Kirby. Meta Knight would obviously be the same species as Kirby, and I find that very interesting. Most people think that Meta Knight is evil though, mostly because he's been a boss quite a few times. However, considering he's an anti-hero, he's not all that bad. Sure he has used some evil ways to do what he thinks is right, but that doesn't mean he's necessarily evil. It's quite sad though, a lot of people percieve Meta Knight as evil. In Kirby and the Amazing Mirror and Kirby Squeak Squad, Meta Knight assists Kirby in various ways, even by letting Kirby use his sword! The anime depicts Meta Knight as wanting to protect Kirby as well, and the anime was produced by Sakurai, so I think it's safe to say it's canon. Some may argue though, I'm just hoping that they don't use Meta Knight's dubbed voice for SSBB's English version. His spanish accent makes him sound too much like Zorro, the masked warrior from those movies. Frankly, I don't think it matches very well. Same with King Dedede's southern accent, ugh. Hopefully, they'll keep in the Japanese voices like they did for SSBM. Well, 
Jigglypuff got her English voice actress probably because the name was different. Jigglypuff saying "Purin" wouldn't seem right to the American audience. Call me bias against dubbed voices, I don't care too much. I don't mind Jigglypuff's voice because I grew up with it anyway. Haha.They did reveal what Meta Knight's special moves would be, but they didn't exactly reveal what they did, so I assume there is going to be another update explaining that. A lot of people will probably complain about it though. I really should stop reading the GameFAQs message boards, some of them just really annoy me, yet I can't stop going back to read what their opinions are. x__x
