Typically, in-game, children start to get rolled up when the katamari gets to be about 1.5m and adults in the 2-2.5 range. DK is about 2.5m to begin with, so it would probably take a katamari about 3.5m large to threaten DK. Bigger if he's resisting in a way other than panicking and running away slowly.

The Prince, in the right environment, can obviously get a katamari this size, but it usually takes a considerable amount of time to do so. A good clip is usually about 3 minutes to double in size, and the katamari usually starts at no more than 25cm, so we're talking about doubling 4 times. I'm reasonably confident DK can track down The Prince -- who has no real defensive capabilities to hold him off in the meanwhile -- for 12 minutes.

Plus, a katamari is usually going to be smaller than a moon until the King turns it into some celestial body, so DK could just wind up and punch it away if he sees it coming.

DK stomps.
