Achievement Guide: Beautiful Katamari

There are 40 achievements with a total of 1250 points.

Show/hide completed achievements Status: Visible
Show/hide secret achievements Status: Visible
Manic Roller20
Hint: Running into walls will destroy your katamari.
For this one you have to run into walls 30 times during a stage. Try to get Eternal Mode unlocked on a level (by getting a score of 100 or more), then just keep running into walls for a while and hit  to exit the level. Do this together with "Speedy Roller" by dashing into the wall.
Quick Turner10
Hint: Use Quick Turn to your advantage.
For this one you have to use the quick turn (press in both thumbsticks) 30 times during a stage. Use the same strategy as "Manic Roller" and just jump back and forth for a minute, then exit.
Speedy Roller10
Hint: Zip through the course with Dash.
For this one you have to use the dash (move the thumbsticks forward and back) 30 times during a stage. Do this at the same time as "Manic Roller" by dashing right into a wall.
Responsible Roller30
Hint: Roll through the course without bumping into any objects.
Once again, unlock Eternal Mode for a stage, then start Eternal Mode, move forward a bit to grab one item, then quit Eternal Mode by hitting .
Non-stop Roller30
Hint: Roll through the course without stopping once.
You should get this at the same time as "Responsible Roller" if you didn't take more than a second to end the level after getting the one item.
Online Roller5
Play online.
Please see "Resident Online Roller" for more information.
Frequent Online Roller10
Play online 10 times.
Please see "Resident Online Roller" for more information.
Resident Online Roller40
Play online 50 times.
These achievements all just require to play online matches, so you could join matches and just sit there in theory. However, try to do well so you can work on the cookie achievements at the same time.
100 Cookies5
Obtain 100 Cookies.
Please see "1,000 Cookies" for more information.
1,000 Cookies40
Obtain 1,000 Cookies.
Cookies are earned in the Online VS matches. Since you have to play 50 of those for the other achievements, you should probably get this along the way. Even when you lose a match, you will most likely get 20 cookies or more (in a 4 player game), so if you can stick with that average you'll get these around the same time as you finish your 50th match. If you win some matches, you'll get it faster. Look for planets with the "bonus cookies" turned on, because you can get bonuses for getting knocked out of the ring or losing the most items, so even losing can sometimes net you more cookies than winning.

Note: You can give cookies to friends by throwing them at them. If you get over 100/1,000 this way, the achievement won't unlock until you finish another game or a stage in single player.
10 Presents5
Collect 10 Presents.
Please see "All Presents" for more information.
20 Presents10
Collect 20 Presents.
Please see "All Presents" for more information.
30 Presents20
Collect 30 Presents.
Please see "All Presents" for more information.
All Presents80
Download stages and collect all Presents.

The best way to search for presents is to unlock Eternal Mode for a stage. This lifts your time constraint so you can really scrounge around each area. Once you pick up a present in Eternal Mode, you can simply hit  to leave the level and it will save. If you get the present in Normal mode, you have to finish the level and hit the target size for it to save. Time Attack mode you also have to finish, but those are impossible to fail.

Please refer to this thread for Present locations.

Note: The seven levels you need to download to be able to finish this final achievement will cost 1500 points. They are:

  • Mechanical Katamari (200)
  • Dangerous Katamari (200)
  • Perfectly Sized Katamari (300)
  • Milky Way Constellations (200)
  • The Weaver Girl (200)

All Requests 60
Complete all Requests.
Each request is just a certain house/stage that you have to complete. Basically play the story and you'll get all of these. There are 13 requests total. Once you finish "Schloss Cosmos" the credits will run, then a new request is available once you're back in the Princedom. That is the final request.

Please see "Astronomic Katamari" for more information.

Make a katamari that's 30m or more!
Please see "Astronomic Katamari" for more information.
Jumbo Katamari20

Please see "Astronomic Katamari" for more information.

Please see "Astronomic Katamari" for more information.
Astronomic Katamari90
Download stages and make a katamari over 1,500,000km.

All the previous sizes will come while doing the normal requests during the game. For this final achievement, you must download a few DLC stages and play them a few times (the Calorie stage and the Dangerous stage are very good), then replay Schloss Cosmos ON NORMAL to get this. This does not unlock playing Eternal mode.

 
Secret Achievements
 
50 Hours Playtime40
Played for 50 hours.
Please see "100 Hours Playtime" for more information.
100 Hours Playtime80
Played for 100 hours.
Aside from actually playing the game (which you'll get most of this time when going for the 100/200 requests and 100% completion), you can just turn your controller off and leave the game running while you sit in the Princedom. The game does not pause in this area and the clock will run. If you are paranoid that this method won't work, use a wired controller or play and charge kit, then enter a stage in Eternal Mode and let it sit that way. It does pause if the controller turns off in this area, so make sure your cord doesn't fall out.
Katamari Fan40
Completed Requests 100 times in Normal Mode.
Please see "Katamari Lover" for more information.
Katamari Lover80
Completed Requests 200 times in Normal Mode.

You will get most of these while working on getting the presents, cousins and 100% Collection achievements, but once you're done with that if you still have not done 200 requests, just simply play Egg School (Tutorial level) over and over until you get it. You can do any request, but this is the shortest one.

Note: When you check the "Everyone's Katamari" section in space, this total refers to Eternal Modes and Time Attacks as well as your Normal Modes, so you will most likely need to get that number higher than 100/200, but it should give you an idea of how far you are.

Collection 100%80
Roll up 100% of the Collection.

There are 3409 items to collect in the game. You can check your progress from the tree on the main island. They are split into different groupings. The best thing to do is unlock Eternal Modes. That way, you can roll the levels in all different ways and not worry about getting the size requirements. Once you're bored or too big to pick anything else up, simply hit  to save and exit the level.

Some things you can no longer get credit for if you are too large, so try to move to new areas as soon as you can, as well as replaying levels so you can roll different areas at different sizes. Some things only show up in certain levels (even if the levels start you in the same area, there will be different people and things lying around), so make sure you play all the levels over again.

Note: Seadome and Schloss Cosmos seem to have most of the items, so play those often.

Katamari Perfectionist100
Completed all Requests in Normal and Time Attack Mode.

Once you finish a level, it will open the Time Attack mode for that level. You can't fail these, so simply finish each Time Attack and you'll get the achievement.

Note: There are only 10 Time Attack levels. Egg School, Roller Roaster and Chateau Notre Desir do not have Time Attack modes.
