I'm tired of pretending that the Tikis weren't based. Anthropomorphic tropical musical instruments that hypnotized the local fauna was a great concept for DKC villains, and it was a better explanation as to why DK had to fight so many enemies in his home turf, compared to the Kremlins seemingly taking over the entire island and even building fucking factories overnight, and all the animals siding with them over the king of the jungle whose giant face makes up for 1/3 of the land.

Frankly Donkey Kong never needed a consistent villain, Kremlins were only good in DKC2 and I welcomed the new games doing something different. I fucking wish Mario could fight someone else other than Bowser for the first time since Super Mario Land 2. But retarded Smashfags just had to bandwagon over K Roll so hard that they convinced Nintendo to bring them back.
