This {{Webcomic}} contains examples of:

* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Ace tries to give the Prince and Future!Prince one in [[http://www.shiftylook.com/comics/katamari/called-out Called Out]], but it doesn't work too well given how he doesn't understand the situation or his cousin's nature at all.

* BittersweetEnding: The Opeo Quest mini-arc lampoons this, with Opeo giving a mental speech about [[http://www.shiftylook.com/comics/katamari/a-heros-burden a hero's burden]].

* SkewedPriorities: The Future!Prince eventually reveals that [[spoiler:his father]] has these: turns out the way he found about about the crisis he had to TimeTravel to prevent was [[spoiler:a PS on the letter he sent him. The King spent more time talking about the Present than the [=RoboKing=]]].

--> '''Future!Prince:''' "The chances that something unexpected might interrupt our departure are essentially zero. Yes, it's so still and quiet out here in these woods. There's no way there's anyone around who might stop us from saving the world. To reiterate, we'll be leaving immediately, and I foresee us encountering no problems. Something would have to interrupt us ''right this second'' for our departure to be prevented. So, on that infallible note, let's-
