Capsule J[1] (spelled Capsule-J on his Helper icon) is an enemy and Helper in the Kirby series, debuting in Kirby Super Star. It yields the Jet ability when inhaled.
Physical Appearance[]
Capsule J is a mechanical blue creature with white gloves and red feet. It has a bright green, visor-like casing, and a jet pack on its back which is attached by a ring-like band which hangs above its visor. It highly resembles a mechanical Waddle Doo with a jet pack on its back.
Games[]
Kirby Super Star[]
Capsule J hovers around aimlessly at first, but begins to zoom at Kirby after it sets its sights on him. The Helper version of Capsule J is cyan and the enemy versions are orange and the occasional green. Like most of the other Helpers, the Helper version of Capsule J can execute the same moves that its respective ability (in this case, Jet) can do. He can also shoot exhaust while underwater, however this will not propel him forward.
Capsule J does not appear in the remake, Kirby Super Star Ultra, instead being replaced with Capsule J2.
Trivia[]
- Capsule J, Rolling Turtle, Togezo, and Bounder are currently the only enemies to have been replaced by other enemies in their respective game's remake. Out of these four, Capsule J was the only one not from Kirby's Adventure.
- Capsule J is the only helper exclusive to Kirby Super Star.
- Capsule J's design heavily resembles Konami's TwinBee character. This might have been the reason why it was replaced by Capsule J2 in Kirby Super Star Ultra.
