Ichigo is a cousin of the Prince. Ichigo is a cousin who looks like a strawberry, and even smells and tastes like one. In Katamari Damacy, she has white legs, while in We ♥ Katamari and forwards the legs become green and her body also gets rounder, resembling more a strawberry. It was said that Ichigo has an unusual habit of eating only strawberries and nothing else, even on strawberry shortcakes, even for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert. She was first introduced in Katamari Damacy, then appears in the rest of the sequels. In Katamari Forever, the RoboKing asks Ichigo about her strawberry motif and starts to get scared by her presence. On the website, it is also stated she acts like a celebrity, goes to parties, and shops designer brands. In the webcomic, she is Macho's spotter, and gives him an intense work out regime.
