Kirby no Kirakira Kizzu (カービィのきらきら きっず, Kirby's Sparkling Kids) is a video game released in 1998 for the Super Famicom, exclusively in Japan, as an indirect follow-up title to Kirby's Star Stacker. The game was first released in 1998 in the form of being distributed via the Nintendo Power flash RAM service. A year later, in 1999, the game was given a standard cartridge release. The game's title is the same as the Japanese title of Kirby's Star Stacker.

Like the original Kirby's Star Stacker, the gameplay involves the player having to remove falling Star Blocks by placing matching Animal Friends (Rick, Coo, and Kine) at either end. A notable addition to Kirby no Kirakira Kizzu is a story mode, in which Kirby faces several opponents from other Kirby games (most of them originally appearing in Kirby Super Star). There were plans to release the game overseas as Kirby's Super Star Stacker,[1] but this was canceled because the Super Nintendo reached the end of its lifespan around that time.

Kirby no Kirakira Kizzu was ported to the Virtual Console on three different consoles, the Wii in 2010, the Wii U in 2013, and the New Nintendo 3DS in 2016. It was also released for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System - Nintendo Switch Online service on July 22, 2022. All four ports have only been released in Japan.
