WolfWrath is a powerful fiery wolfmonster from the anime seriesKirby: Right Back at Ya!. He appears in the episodeHour of the WolfWrath, where he wreaks havoc inCastle Dedede by setting the place on fire, meanwhile causing a great deal of trouble forKing Dedede who had called him in, not knowing the beast's wild temperament. WolfWrath is extremely tough, able to defeatMeta Knight in single combat, and it takes the combined efforts ofSword Knight,Blade Knight, andGalaxiaKirby to bring him down.

Characteristics[edit]

WolfWrath resembles a wolf in general appearance, but is very large, and has crimson-colored fur. Unlike a typical wolf, he has a lighter-colored mane around his neck, spikes jutting out of his back, and a large gem embedded in his forehead. His physical agility and cries give him a very intimidating demonic appearance. WolfWrath has a wild temperament, and does not follow orders.

WolfWrath is fearsome in combat, able to strike with astonishing speed and ferocity with his claws and teeth. In addition, he is able to shoot explosive fireballs out of his mouth in rapid succession. WolfWrath is able to restore his strength using fire, and appropriately, is damaged by exposure to water. WolfWrath's other abilities include being able to see in infrared wavelengths, and paralyzing his opponents using his fangs. Unless weakened by water damage, WolfWrath is highly resistant to attacks, able to withstand even direct hits from swords.

In the Japanese version,N.M.E. Sales Guy describes WolfWrath as a monster born in the fires of Hell.
