Cousins

From Katamari Wiki

A picture of all the cousins from the 1st. game to the 4th.

Cousins are the relatives of the Prince. Cousins can be first cousins, second cousins, or cousins once removed, although the term Cousins can refer to any playable character in the Katamari games, including the Prince and Princess.

While it was once unclear as to how exactly they are related to the Prince, as to whether or not they are the King's cousins, or the Prince's, it has since been clarified. The King comments in We ♥ Katamari and Beautiful Katamari that the first Cousins rolled up are "a cousin of the Prince." As the King himself is most likely an only child, they are probably related to the Queen.

For more information on individual Cousins, see their respective articles.
