Now that Masahiro Sakurai is free from the bonds of Smash Bros., he's been running his own YouTube channel, covering a bunch of different topics from game design and UI to animation and sound effects. One of the series he has is called Grab Bag, which touches on more random stories, but all of them are still pretty much game-related in some way... until today, that is.
Sakurai's latest video is about his cat, Fukura.
It's not the first time we've seen Fukura in the flesh fur, as the female Scottish Fold has appeared in a few other videos, but it's the first time she's been the star. We get to learn fun facts about the kitty, like finding out that Sakurai calls her "Fukurashi" since it rolls off the tongue better, and that he's had her since she was a kitten.
And then it's just a slideshow of photos of Fukura, and videos of her as a tiny kitten. It's extremely cute.
Fukura for Smash when?

Fukurashi will be voiced by Chris Pratt in the upcoming Sakurai documentary
She’s looking like “Dad what do you want?!”
I’m not a cat person, but she is unbelievably cute.
Forget Smash 6 show me more Fukura
Fukura coverage > Smash. There, I typed it.
she so adorable, she remind me of Nina my aunt late siamese cat
Finding old photos and clips of when my pets were very young is like finding baby pictures for me. Also, the little spot on Fukura's nose is sooo cute!!!
As a fellow cat person, I 100% want to see more of Fukura.
That's atrocious! Don't support breeders of scottish folds! 😑
@Byunear she will have a good life anyhow.
But I do agree with you
People breed these because of the ears, and a lot of people consider it cute.
I consider it animal abuse, but I doubt Sakurai knew about this (most people don't)
A different but comparable situation with people mixing most agressive dogs from different races together, because people in my country want "a macho dog"
Yeah...
Oh my gosh! She is SO dang cute!
I have a 1 year old kitty and he likes to knock things on the floor on purpose. If you leave cups or soda cans laying anywhere unattended for 5 seconds he runs over and swats them to the floor. Drives me crazy! I wonder at what age he might grow out of that.
He also for some reason while I'm gaming will nuzzle my controller. Maybe he's trying to say hey turn off that game and pet me or something.
Cats are complicated things but they're so cute!
Love cats, Sakurai's cat has the same colouring as mine, even got a very similar striped tail.
Heck yes, bring it on! I love cats!
...Despite being allergic.
Aww lookit those sweet eyes.
Any chance Fukura can be in the next Smash Bros. game?
Sometimes you just gotta have good feel stuff like this. ♥
@Rayquaza2510 How is that animal abuse? If the cat was born like that, owning one isn’t hurting it. Unless you think the cat should be put down, but as far as I can see on the internet, they don’t feel pain from their ears… correct me if I’m wrong though
@StarPoint Doug Bowser will be voiced by Jack Black as a reference to Jack Black playing Bowser in the animated Super Mario Brothers. Movie from Illumination in 2023 all those years ago
Dude that cat is to much for my heart, hnnng!
I found out earlier that the cat poster hidden in the Pokemon Stadium 2 stage in Smash isn’t of Sakurai’s cat, so this actually helped clear a misconception of mine! I thought I always knew Sakurai had a cat. Scottish Folds are a cute breed even though I don’t think I’ve ever seen one in person. Too bad I’m used to just seeing the usual shorthairs. Breeds are so rare and expensive.
....Sakurai should make a game that's about cats, it would be epic. lol
That's a great cat right there. ♥🐈
Cats forever!😸❤️
Awwwww, her eyes are so cute.
@BabyYoda71 because people breed them on purpose like that.
They know this race has a ton of genetic based health problems, yet people breed them because they are considered cute and keep selling.
That’s why. Just my opinion about it.
Cute cat, although I am not the biggest fan of folded ears. My cat has nice big upstanding ears, with a bit of tuft on top, like a Lynx.
Hi Fukura, I love you!
