Pop Star is the iconic home of Kirby in the Kirby series, known throughout the Kirby universe and even outside the series: its cartoony, yellow, ringed appearance made popular by Kirby's Dream Land, and its beautiful, vibrant landscape made it a popular Nintendo locale akin to Hyrule Castle in The Legend of Zelda series and Peach's Castle in the Super Mario Bros. series.

Game Appearances

Kirby Super Star (Ultra)

Pop Star was first named in-game in Kirby Super Star. Most of Kirby's adventures take place on it, except for Milky Way Wishes, where Kirby only visits it in the intro. In this sub-game, the sun and moon suddenly start fighting. A strange jester-like being named Marx asks Kirby and his helpers to stop the sun and moon from fighting. He explains that Kirby needs to gather the seven stars on each of the surrounding planets to call Nova who will be able to make peace between the sun and moon. Kirby accepts and hops on a Warp Star.

After he calls NOVA, he is just about to make peace when Marx reappears, bumping into Kirby. His wish is "Well, I want to control Pop Star!". A KO'd Kirby is helplessly floating in the atmosphere when the seven stars transform into the Starship and he chases Nova and Marx. The sun and moon hold Nova back so Kirby battles it and later Marx himself.

Kirby's Dream Land 3

Planet Popstar is the main setting of the game Kirby's Dream Land 3. During the game, the peaceful planet is attacked by Zero and Dark Matter, which possesses some of the residents and spreads over the whole planet's surface in a black cloud. Kirby and his friends set out to stop Dark Matter by traveling through five regions of Planet Popstar and destroying its influence in this lands. The five different areas of Planet Popstar are called Grass Land, Ripple Field, Sand Canyon, Cloudy Park, and Iceberg in this game.

Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards

File:PopStarMenu.jpg
Planet Popstar has four simple stages, as it is the first realm in The Crystal Shards.

As Kirby's home planet, Planet Popstar is relatively far from the grasp of Dark Matter, however, the popular, and familiar tree-boss, Whispy Woods seems to be one of the only beings in the realm to be influenced severely by such dark forces. This region is known for its seasonal variety and its beautiful landscape, boasting a vivid autumn-like stage, and a grand castle (most likely Dedede's) that Kirby must infiltrate in his search for Crystal Shards

Like in all worlds of The Crystal Shards, the first three stages within the Planet Popstar hide three Crystal Shards, while the final stage rewards only one after the defeat of the boss. Nevertheless, all shards within one level need not to be collected before Kirby is granted access to the next; Kirby must simply complete the level.
