i think shimomura just liked humanoid characters being put into kirby's world
>cameo characters in DL2 and 3 with chao, samus and a couple others for heart star missions
>adeleine as the only straight up original human character
>keke
>ripple star fairies
think it's just a byproduct of director visions, sakurai had nightmare and kumazaki has the rayman hand characters like susie and the mage sisters but neither are full on like shimomura's characters.
