- So much power! I could use this to attack and rule over a floating kingdom in the sky...if I wanted to, that is.
- —Magolor when you upgrade Upward Magic Sphere to 6, this is a wink to Taranza and Floralia.
Magoranza is the slash ship between Magolor and Taranza from the Kirby fandom.
Canon[]
Magolor and Taranza have not had any sort of major interaction in the Kirby game series, but it's pretty much implied that they have at least know each other based on one of Magolor's quotes on Kirby Return to Dreamland Deluxe on Magolor's Epilogue, that if he could, he would use that attack on a floating kingdom in the sky (which is a nod to Floralia, to where Taranza lives) if he wanted to do that., they appeared to be on the same group in Wave 3 as it was revealed on 8th November 2018
However, they had interactions on the light novel "Kirby's Labyrinth Rescue" which dont seem pretty friendly based on Taranza's interactions.
After hearing a voice, Magolor confirmed that it was coming from his friend, who's name is Taranza, shocking everyone, although it was suspicious for him to not reveal his name, revealing the Dimension Mirror, in the group which includes Magolor, they find Taranza glazing at the Dimension Mirror, Magolor was the one who insisted to not break the mirror, revealing his true intentions, that he only cared for the mirror and not for Taranza.
As Kirby and Meta Knight approach the mirror, Taranza notices that they are about to destroy it. He shooting his controlling strings at Meta Knight, making him in his control and attacking Kirby, of course, the plan was for Magolor and Kirby to grab the mirror, Taranza notices this and starts to chase both of them, until the King Dedede Rocket impacts on Magolor, and Taranza grabs the mirror. Magolor lies to Taranza that Kirby and his group, were trying to destroy the mirror convincing Taranza to attack them
As Kirby remembers that he is defenseless without a Copy Ability, A Waddle Dee runs in with the canvas. He had drawn a new form for Kirby on the canvas, which transforms him into the Kirby Tank. As Kirby is now able to fight back, he aims one attack at Taranza, so Magolor's true nature can be revealed. Kirby shoots a bullet at Taranza, and sure enough, Magolor takes the mirror from him.
Magolor looks into the Dimension Mirror and wishes to become stronger. The power of the mirror makes Magolor grow to a gigantic size. and tries to crush King Dedede but Taranza grabs the king just in time.
Now that Magolor has been empowered by the mirror, Taranza is free from its spell. revealing that Magolor had never been his friend, and Meta Knight explains to Taranza how Magolor manipulated him to get his hands on the mirror, leading that Taranza and Magolor were never friends, falsely claiming to be an acquaintance of Queen Sectonia.
When he informed Magolor that she is gone, he pretended to cry about it and asked to see her room. As Taranza was deceived, Magolor tried to steal the Dimension Mirror from her room. Taranza called for help, and the Dimension Mirror responded to his desire by sealing him and itself deep into the labyrinth of the Mirror World.
Fanon[]
Many people in the Kirby fandom started to ship these two because of their similitudes and because of how Magolor could ressamble Sectonia, and how could he help Taranza cope with Sectonia, however, some people tend to not be a big fan of them because of the Old Friend Mask or because how Magolor treated Taranza on the Light Novel "Kirby’s Labyrinth Rescue" considering how Magolor used Taranza's grief as a way to get the mirror
However some people may say that this is before Magolor's redemption and that the Old Friend Mask, does not mean to hurt Taranza's feelings but as a way to tribute her
Despite everything this ship is the most popular on Taranza's side in slash, but in Magolor's side, it's rivalized by Marxolor, and Magochilly.
Magoranza currently have over 58 works on AO3 and these two hold the second place in having more for both sides, only being surpassed by Marxolor and Sectaranza
