Katamari Wiki
Advertisement


Kuro is a lone-wolf and heroic cousin of the Prince who is first introduced in Katamari Damacy. He has one antenna at the top of his head. From We ♥ Katamari onward, his head has a total of two antennas. However, in the REROLL titles, this design change has been undone.

Kuro is shown to be a large fan of superheroes, with his mask in Me & My Katamari being Jumboman and his location in this game being on stage at a V-Men live action show.
