We pretty much knew Kirby and the Forgotten Land wasn't going to be properly post-apocalyptic, because while Kirby does routinely fight elder gods, they never actually get to succeed in eradicating all life, but I feel like Nintendo's workaround of "everything is deserted because a high-tech human civilisation captured an alien god, tortured its secrets from it, achieved some sort of post-human singularity and ascended en masse to a higher plane of existence, abandoning their uplifted animal servants to inherit the empty world they left behind" is kind of more fucked up than if everything had just gotten blown up.

What a mystery! The Fluttering Dream Eater that appears at the most climactic moments to judge and transform! Just for fun...

Just wanna hear the range of fun headcanons that could be out there!

So the Waddles Dees in Forgotten Land just aren’t strong enough to break the cage that holds three of them in the Japanese version (or simply too sad to move in the English version), right? So I headcanon that Kirby himself isn’t actually opening the cages; it’s the simple sight of him nearby the grants the Dees the strength to break the cages themselves! The animation in the game itself seems to support this too?

This is the cutest HC, Anon! Especially if you take into account the (still hilarious) "too sad to move" description!

I spent a little bit thinking about this, since you brought it to my attention, and I remembered hearing what sounded to me like an "unlocking" sound when you touch one. So I went to look it up.

That's when I noticed a few other things of interest:

As soon as Kirby approaches, the "Clockers" (:grumble grumble the only complaint I have about FL's improved translation is the enemy names:) fly away.

And once they do, the cage begins to glow FROM THE INSIDE, with the light forming from/around the captive Waddle Dees! Once it grows strong enough, the cage bursts apart, even leaving a few metal fragments behind!

Now, what I'm taking from this is a few things.

One, maybe the Waddle Dees (perhaps because of the magic of Popstar "Planet of Miracles") have some native power to them that needs to be contained! Like, why even keep them in cages, right? Why not ferry them all straight away to the lab?! Perhaps Elfilis's goal is to plunge them all in despair, to the point that this magic of theirs is almost gone, so Leongar can run the lab without fear of them escaping?

Cage them, break their spirits, and then put them to work

As you noted, seeing Kirby brings them something that reignites that special light and overpowers their captors! The other thing...

While Clockers seem to be another rank and file member of the Beast Pack (despite not fighting directly) something I noticed way back in the trailer is that the ones in the early cutscenes capturing the Waddle Dees have SOME kind of weird glowing pattern on their heads/faces. Check the one in the back! It looks to me like a star-shaped pattern, like Elfilis' rifts. (The non-aggressive ones DON'T seem to have it.)

The ones holding the Waddle Dees captive may be EMPOWERED by Elfilis to do this! Elfilis themself could be sapping their captives of their will via controlling the Clockers, like they controlled Leongar.

...It's all quite fascinating! Thanks for bringing this issue to light!

This scene is taking place after the end of KATFL as Dedede’s dealing with the aftermath of his “time to shine” against the beast pack. Thankfully, he was shortly thereafter reunited with his sworn partner.
