~ about first cousin miso ~
"Oh, it's cousin Miso. Is there anything in that head of yours? How disturbing." ~ Katamari Damacy
"Oh! You just rolled up some weird soup bowl! Oh, wait, it's just Miso. Watch out, you're going to spill!" ~ We Love Katamari Miso (First Cousin)
Appearance: Red on the outside, the exact color of the innards of a traditional miso bowl, with purple legs. Her head is bowl-shaped, with the antenna coming out from the center of the bowl, and filled with... well, miso soup. Complete with bits of tofu and seaweed.
Katamari: Dark red with lumps striped with yellow, brown, white, and green.
According to the King: In Katamari Damacy: "She pretends to be thinking and is blissfully free of anything resembling thought."
In We Love Katamari: "A cousin with a smell We find very relaxing."
Personality: Miso is an adorable ditz. Unlike Ichigo, she doesn't try to be overly cute - she just sort of naturally is. Miso daydreams a lot, tends to zone out very easily, and has a strange sort of logic that makes sense to her but rarely to anybody else. Ever seen the anime Azumanga Daioh? If Miso was human, she'd be Osaka. Now that's a scary thought.
Miso tends to roll very methodically and carefully. She's not very fast nor does she enjoy dashing, as both speed-rolling and dashing tend to risk soup spillage, but if you're looking for caaaareful, that's Miso.
(Of course, despite all her caution while roling, Miso does frequently spill her soup just because she's Miso.... but we don't talk about that much. Nope.)
Likes: Japanese food, rolling, tea, watching dust motes, daydreaming, exploring ramen shops on Earth.
Dislikes: Accidentally spilling her soup, people drinking her soup, being mistaken for an actual bowl, being mistaken for one of the King's cocktail glasses (hey, it's happened).

Random Details:
(things sosi made up, but it could be true!)
- Miso speaks in third person. Not sure why, but she does.
- Miso sleeps at night with a custom-made tupperware-esque lid over her head, so that the soup does not spill while she rests. Keeps Miso happy, and the sheets clean!
- The liquid in Miso's 'bowl' affects her personality somewhat. Miso soup keeps her calmer and happier, while other liquids will do other things... one reason why Miso doesn't like people fiddling with it. Examples: Soda = hyper, coffee = jittery as hell, alcohol = instant drunk (as in the cocktail glass incident).
- Miso will share her soup if people ask nicely, and if they have their own cup or bowl to dip and take some out. She will NEVER share if people demand it, and NEVER NEVER NEVER likes it if anyone tries to drink straight out of her head. Sheesh, people!
