Kirby is canonically considered a genderless entity in both original Japanese media and localized Western game releases, though English marketing and manuals traditionally use masculine pronouns like "he" for simplicity. Masahiro Sakurai, the creator of the character, designed Kirby with a round, soft, and ambiguous aesthetic specifically so that players of any gender, age, or background could easily identify with him without being confined by traditional demographic or gender labels.
