On a recent thread , discussing why Adeleine is stronger in Star Allies than in The Crystal Shards implied discussing whether Marx survived the first Nova's explosion or he was killed by it and reincarnated or revived by the Dream Rod, and these are arguments:
1) "He's stated to have absorbed the comet's power voluntarily in the what-if scenario."
a. That statement is a mistranslation: "ÒâÄÒâ┤ÒéíÒü«ÕèøÒéÆÒüìÒéàÒüåÒüùÒéàÒüåÒüùÒÇüÒüìÒéçÒüéÒüÅÒü«ÒüƒÒü¥ÒüùÒüäÒüîÒéêÒü┐ÒüîÒüêÒéï …" ("With the power of Nova, the spirit of evil revives…").
b. And even if it weren't, "to bring back his evil soul" would still mean his soul had left him and "He absorbed a Nova's power" would read like "The corpse absorbed the sun's rays."
2) "He appears in 'Kirby Brawl Ball', and spin-offs such as Mass Attack are canon if they're not proven non-canon."
a. On the contrary, they're canon if they're proven canon, and the only proven one is Dream Collection Special Editio, which was proven canon on a Miiverse post.
b. For starters, this is about "Kirby Brawl Ball", a mini-game of Mass Attack, and only Extra Modes and True Arenas were proven to be what-if scenarios.
3) "His past is mentioned in his descriptions, so the Star Allies one isn't a reincarnation."
a. Nintendo heroes' pasts are mentioned in their SSB counterparts' descriptions, too.
b. He was included as a Dream Friend because there wasn't a better character from Super Star (Ultra).
4) Lastly, he couldn't have survived the explosion; he's defeated by Kirby, who…
a. Can't destroy the comet; the villain stops and flashes for a second prior to flying to its core as a result of the link between them.
- The portion of the crust protecting the core detaches prior to the battle, which would be pointless if the core weren't hit later, so while depicted as instantaneous, it's a chain reaction.
b. Can't even destroy the columns creating the barrier protecting the core without the Starship, and the special Warp Star's appearance and role would be pointless if he didn't need to go to the nucleus.
c. Can't stop the moon-sized sun and moon and needs to summon the comet they struggle to stop.
As a conclusion, other moments in the series should scale to this.
