Earth

Earth is the third planet in the solar system and it's the main planet where the Katamari Series takes place. The Earth is the planet where The Prince and the other cousins roll up objects to restore the Cosmos.

Earth is first seen in Katamari Damacy as the player can circle the planet to choose the next level. It is also the setting for the end minigame, where the countries are able to be rolled up. The countries in Katamari Damacy are multicolored like that on a map.

In We ♥ Katamari, Earth is shown again to have all the countries to be rolled up to save the planet from a asteroid impact. The countries are multicolored again. In Roll Up the Sun, Earth is used as a katamari for the first time where The Prince is ordered to roll up the celestial bodies to grow big enough to roll up the sun. If you fail, the Earth along with the katamari will burn.

In Me & My Katamari, Earth is the main setting, although it can not be visually seen in space.

In Beautiful Katamari, Earth is the main setting. It can be rolled in Schloss Kosmos, Chatéau Notre Desir, and Co-op World. The Earth can be explored in Dangerous Colony and have the countries rolled up like in the Katamari Damacy's credits minigame and Save the Earth! The countries in this game are realistically colored and there are features like typhoons and mountains littered across the world, unlike the previous games.

In Katamari Forever, the Earth is the main setting again, and has all the features like the previous games. In this game, Earth is used as a katamari again, this time in the Farewell! stage to roll up the RoboKing and is ranked at 100 Cosmos.

In Touch My Katamari, Earth is a main setting for the game, and this time it is used as a katamari again in the final DLC stage, The Great Journey. There is a solar system in the Cosmos with the Earth missing in its place.

Appearance[]

Earth

The Earth is mostly a blue planet in the first two games with the countries that are multicolored like that on a map. The Earth also has a visible atmosphere and clouds that obscure the countries in the first two games. In the other games, the Earth is more realistic with countries being portrayed in proper colors and having physical features, like terrains and mountains. The Earth is able to be stretched and morphed in Touch My Katamari.

Descriptions[]

Beautiful Katamari[]

  • If you look up on Earth, you see the blue sky. No wonder it looks blue when you see it from space.

Katamari Forever[]

  • If you look up on Earth, you see the blue sky. No wonder it looks blue when you see it from space.

Earth as a Katamari[]

Earth Close

It is possible for the Earth itself to be used as a katamari due to its round shape. In certain cases, it has been used as a katamari to fulfill large requests. It was first used as a Katamari in the We ♥ Katamari stage, "Roll Up the Sun", where it is used to roll up celestial objects to grow big enough to roll up the sun. If failed, the Earth turns red and burns up.

The Earth has been used again in the Katamari Forever stage "Farewell!", where the planet itself is used to roll up the many parts that make up the RoboKing. By using the Earth, the player will be given the chance to roll up the RoboKing in his entirety, down to his core.

The most recent level that uses the Earth as a katamari is in the Touch My Katamari level "The Great Journey." In this level, the player is tasked to roll up The King in the Cosmos. The ball being used for this monumental challenge is the Earth. Strangely enough, the Earth is able to be stretched and squished just like any other katamari with the exception of the snowball from the Snowman! stage.

In the box cover for Katamari Forever, the Earth is being used as a katamari by the Prince to roll up his Cousins.

Countries of the Earth[]

Most of the countries were introduced in Katamari Damacy's credit stage. The Moon was primarily as a katamari to roll up all the countries in both Katamari Damacy and We ♥ Katamari. For the first two games, all the countries were multicolored, as they looked like on a map. Later on in the series, the countries would change to more normal earthly colors, corresponding more to how they look in real life. When viewed from space or seen in cutscenes, the countries would match the color of the Earth and would be seen in a lighter shade of blue compared to planet's waters. In Katamari Damacy, it was not possible to view the countries in the collection. We ♥ Katamari has the option to roll the countries again, and viewing each individual country is now an option. It may be confusing to view, as in the collection area of the game, only you are able to view everything under one continent: America, Africa, Eurasia, and Oceania. Selecting each continent will also give the option to view each country individually with their appropriate flag.

Finally, in Beautiful Katamari and Katamari Forever, the countries are able to be rolled up again and are able to be viewed in the game's collection individually and without any confusion.

Descriptions of continents:

America: Looks like there's room for 35 parts. You have collected 35.

Africa: Looks like there's room for 53 parts. You have collected 53.

Eurasia: Looks like there's room for 92 parts. You have collected 92.

Oceania: Looks like there's room for 15 parts. You have collected 15.

Below is a list of all the current countries of the planet that are featured in the series. The total number of countries in the series is 195. Keep in mind that some of these flags may not be up to date with their respective countries, as these are the flags that were used at the time of making Katamari Damacy and We ♥ Katamari.

Country Continent Description Flag
Afghanistan Eurasia Everyone here wears long beards that suit them very well, but it must be tough when they're drinking milk.

Angola Africa This country has plenty of the hardest rocks on earth, otherwise known as diamonds.
Albania Eurasia There's a two-headed bird on this nation's flag. Maybe you can meet it if you visit. It's a bit scary though.
Algeria Africa Full of sand as far as the eye can see. People there must make splendid sandcastles.
Antartica Oceania Apparently this place is so cold that you have to wear a jacket on top of your jacket.

Belarus Eurasia We think this name is cool. It sounds like a nation that can fly through the air.
Belgium Eurasia The setting for a story starring a huge dog and a sad little boy. We are getting a little sleepy.

Benin Africa A country by the ocean, but with a lot of dessert, too. You can see it all here. We are quite jealous.

Bolivia America They mine a lot of tin here. You can make a ton of robots with that.

Burkina Faso Africa A nation with set dry and rainy seasons, making it easy to plan out your social schedule.
Burundi Africa Those three stars on the flag are very cool.
Cambodia Eurasia Home to the ancient Angkor Wat temple. You don't have to repeat yourself. It's not "Angkor What?"

Canada America Home to a gigantic waterfall. Martial artists must flock to it for their training.
Cape Verde Africa A collection of islands in the Atlantic Ocean. Nobody lived there when it was discovered, apparently.

Comoros Africa They found a fish from ancient times still living in this place. We'd like to try searching for others.

Dominican Republic America This Dominica is apparently a republic. Shares an island with Haiti.
East Timor Eurasia Achieved its independence just a little while back. The name means "land of the rising sun." Best of luck to it.

El Salvador America You can't help but say this with a dramatic flair.
England Eurasia A country full of proper gentlemen. The men's suit stores must run a bustling business.

Saint Lucia America Adding "Saint" to your name seems to be quite fashionable around here.

Senegal Africa A race run with cars in the desert finishes here.

Tonga Oceania This place is apparently home to a large king. We are sure he's no cosmos-level king, however.
Trinidad and Tobago America The name Tobago apparently comes from the tobacco smoked by the natives.
Tunisia Africa People here used to wage war riding elephants. We think lions would be stronger.
Turkey Eurasia A country with lots of earthquakes. Who knew a punch of plates could cause so much trouble?

Tuvalu Oceania Even the highest point in this country is only about five meters. You won't find any mountaineers here.

United States of America America Apparently there are dreams here not available anywhere else.
Uruguay America The nation's flag look like Argentina's, but the sun's face on this one is more realistic.
Uzbekistan Eurasia There used to be a silk road going through here. It must have disappeared once they realized what a waste it was, having people tramping over all the silk.

Yemen Eurasia This country has a strong and mysterious Arabian flair.

Earth Corners[]
