8. King Of All The Cosmos - Katamari Damacy

Namco

As we’ve proved before in this list, being an iconic dad doesn’t necessarily mean you have to be loving, caring or - as in the case of The King of ALL Cosmos from Katamari Damacy - even human sized.

I mean, just look at him! He would always win those playground arguments you had as kids:

“My dad could beat up your dad.”

“Yell well my dad is king of bloody space and time.”

“... Fair one.”

Plus the King is pure banter, often acting like a forgetful but lovable loon to his Son the Prince, and he is so in love with his wife The Queen that it’s incredibly touching. He’s pretty much unrivalled with his rolling skills, even using the Sun itself as a Katamari. Cap it all off with a look for the ages and you have one of the medium's greatest padres ever.
