The Melancholy of Meta Knight

The Melancholy of Meta Knight is a Kirby: Right Back At Ya! fanfiction written by VelvetNeon.

Why It Sucks

 * 1) To get the elephant out of the room, it's about Meta Knight being suicidal.
 * 2) It's exaggerated portrayal of depression and suicide may offend some readers.
 * 3) The fanfiction story's description is very short and doesn't really go into detail about the plot.
 * 4) * All the description says is that Meta Knight goes into a downward spiral after some terrible events happen.
 * 5) Extremely graphic, unsettling scenes, such as Tiff cutting her arm and  '''commiting suicide by stabbing herself in the neck.
 * 6) Plot holes, such as how Kirby and Tuff died and what caused Meta Knight developed depression in the first place.
 * 7) * Tuff's death was likely added as filler.
 * 8) Whenever someone tries to help Meta Knight, he would outright refuse to get some help and even threaten to kill them.
 * 9) King Dedede and Tokkori are extremely unlikable, as neither one of them take Meta Knight's mental health seriously.
 * 10) The infamous scene where Meta Knight commits suicide by jumping off a cliff.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) The author added warnings about the fanfiction story's violent nature.
 * 2) Escargoon is the only likable character.
