Can I be honest, this might be a controversial Kirby opinion but I think... They peaked with Magolor for Boss battles and design... Now I know that's saying a lot considering Star Dream and the blue guy from Forgotten Land exist, but honestly, Magolor's song, background and design (especially Soul design) is iconic.
The scene where it turns all white and his crown upgrades? It is my very first thought if Kirby bosses get brought up. Maybe it's nostalgia speaking but I don't really have much of an attachment to the other bosses. I think they kind of drag on a bit too long, though I do think the inside of Void Termina is also kind of iconic but only for it's stage.
Ok so like, after Magolor, Sectonia has an iconic music piece, I think it's matched or maybe a bit higher on my personal tier list for Kirby boss music. Star Dream's design overall is iconic to me, I love robot stuff. Void Termina's staging is kind of very pretty and the final scene with Elfilis with the truck is pretty cool... But I don't think any of them ever matched up with Magolor for me personally.
Like even past Star Dream I can't remember Void Termina or Elfilis's boss music. I think Kirby music has gotten a bit more... Grandiose? I could be wrong and maybe it's just my taste in music but I think they've kind of complicated a bit more of the simple melody Kirby would have for it's boss music, but I don't know, I'm not a music expert. All of this is just my opinion though
Though I think Star Dream is probably 2nd place though, I just don't think it needed 5 million phases because good lord it's so long. Also I think the difference between it and Magolor's fight is that Magolor's is a lot more personal, since you can use any abilities he throws at you or fight him just as Kirby, while you fight as Halberd against Star Dream. You have to think a lot more on what to do with Magolor's fight compared to Star Dream where you spam A. I don't know where I'm going with this, I just think Magolor's fight is peak, and I still think he has the best Soul Design next to probably Sectonia Soul.
