Wait a minute, isn't Katamari that cute little game where you roll stuff up into a ball to give to the king of the cosmos?, what the fuck does that have to do with 2 retarded kids brutally murdering a couple of old ladies?
Those kids should be put into a press and compressed into a ball and see how they like it, yeah, they would be dead by then, but that only means that the world would be a better place...the kids die, and we get to live on, its a win-win situation for those of us with an IQ higher than 10
Actually, Katamari Damacy is a surprisingly dark game, it's just presented in such a charming little way that it's easy to miss for the first couple of hours. Think about it... What do you really DO in Katamari Damacy?
1. Roll up stuff into a big ball, including living animals and people.
2. When you've gathered a big enough ball of helpless citizens, you LEAVE Earth's ATMOSPHERE WITH IT, and present the Katamari to your father.
3. Your father then turns it into a star, which we all know is a burning mass of hot gas. Essentially, he lights it on fire.
So, if there were any people in the Katamari, they were suffocated, then cremated and their corpses used to light up the sky.
Actually, the (hidden) dark undertones in KD are one of the major things I really like about the game.
But that said, I think enough time has passed without an actual source that we can just say "fake news" and laugh about it. I do think such a story is entirely plausible in today's world. Video games, it seems, are the new black people (and by that I mean that they're a popular whipping boy, defending them never seems to do any good, and anti-game advocates don't seem susceptible to logic or reason.)
