'''Galaxia Darkness''' ({{ja|ギャラクシアダークネス|Gyarakushia Dākunesu}}, ''Galaxia Darkness'') is [[Meta Knight]]'s [[Final Smash]]. It was first seen on videos from [[E for All]] before appearing on the [http://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/characters/metaknight.html#3rd DOJO!!!]. When used, Meta Knight swings his cape out directly in front of him while shouting either "Know my power!" or "Behold....". If he misses with his cape, Meta Knight pauses for a brief time, and the Final Smash fails. When it connects (the trapping hitbox is a bit longer than the edge of the cape), characters trapped by Meta Knight's cape become invincible, but trapped at the spot where they were caught by the hitbox. The screen then darkens to black, and after a few seconds, a large, single slash appears near Meta Knight, as he then slices the trapped opponents with one, powerful strike. When Meta Knight slashes, he either swings upward or performs a standard slash, though this does not affect the attack's strength. | |||
Characters who are trapped by Meta Knight's cape always receive 40% damage, and high, upwards knockback that can KO above 50%, with [[super armor]] ignored. Any opponents who are not trapped are also attacked, but instead take about half damage and weak, upwards knockback, with the opponents being hit in player order. Unusually, these slashes can hurt allies as well, even with [[Friendly Fire]] disabled; even more unusually, these slashes disregard super armor, making moves with launch resistance ineffective for defense. The weaker slash part of Galaxia Darkness can be avoided by dodging with correct timing. | |||

The move returns in ''SSB4'' with a starry sky graphical effect applied to the inside of Meta Knight's cape. It also no longer affects teammates with Team Attack off. | The move returns in ''SSB4'' with a starry sky graphical effect applied to the inside of Meta Knight's cape.

One can imagine Meta Knight zipping back and forth at high speed to accomplish this.'' | ||

''[[Galaxia]]'' is the name of Meta Knight's sword in the anime, ''Kirby: Right Back at Ya!''. A legendary sword with immense power, it appears to be a mere hilt when sheathed, with the blade forming after being drawn. The multi-pronged design first appeared in the games with ''Kirby & The Amazing Mirror'', where Meta Knight throws it to [[Kirby]] in order to fight Dark Mind. Galaxia, along with various other aspects of the anime, was integrated into the main series, and has remained the design of Meta Knight's sword ever since. At the time of ''Brawl's'' release, however, it had never been referred to as ''Galaxia'' in the games. ''Kirby's Epic Yarn'', released after ''Brawl'', is the first game to name the sword ''Galaxia''. The move itself is named after this, and the darkness that cloaks the players when used is from his Dimensional Cape. | |||
