Kin and Laney in THE PIRATE LOUNGE FOR ME

Kin will sometimes show his inventions to Laney. Laney will mostly question the invention he made because of it being too dangerous, useless, or stupid. However, most of the time this happens, Kin will prove to Laney that his invention really is a good thing.

Trina Riffin

Trina is completely comatose because we overdid the brainwashing

Kin seems to fear Trina a lot, as he openly express his fear of Trina unlike Corey and Laney, although Kin does, however, help Corey come up with tactics to make Trina go into Diary Mode. Trina has little opinion on Kin, other than hating him along with the rest of the band. The few times they have interacted, she either insults him for being nerdy or tries to wreck his latest invention.

Kim Killing Kin

Out of all of The Newmans, Kin hates Kim the most. In the episode "Rock the House," the two of them went up against each other in the curling competition. Kin tried to knock Kim off course with sound waves but she knocked him off of his rock by hitting him in the face with her keytar. In the episode "Kon-Fusion." The two of them actually became more fond and friendly with each other. They were both jealous of how Kon and Konnie became great friends with each other and started doing the things they used to do with them and they both talked with each other about it. However, this only lasted until the end of the episode when they began to grow apart and hate each other again. They were never seen directly interacting in any future episodes of season 2 so it is unknown whether they are still friends or is they have gone back to being arch enemies again.

Trivia

  • Kin being a smart, nerdy guy who is also the keyboardist of the band supports a common stereotype that the keyboardists of bands are usually nerdy and weak, but also clever and smart.
  • It is also a stereotype that the nerdy keyboardist in the band is usually good friends with the drummer or "the big guy" which applies to Kin's friendship with Kon in the series.
  • Like Laney, he is also a multi-instrumentalist, although he only plays two kinds: keyboard/keytar and accordion.
  • Kin and Kon's names are "King Kong" with the "g's" removed, which is also where the creators got the idea for their names.
  • Kin and Kon were born by c section at the same time. As a result, Kin has no nipples, as they are on Kon's back.
    • This was referenced in the episode "Indie Road Rager" when Corey was looking at Kon's back and said, "Yep, those are back nipples."
    • In the episode "Super Zeroes" when Kin was dressed as Screecules, his costume showed that he actually did have a nipple.
    • It was referenced to again in "Bee Bop A Loofah" where Kin was seen showering with Kon, and he had no nipples.
    • It was seen again in "A-Capella-Lips Now", when Kin and Kon took their shirts off, revealing that Kin didn't have nipples on his chest.
  • Kin is bilingual as he speaks fluent Japanese.
  • Although Kin and Kon are twin brothers, Kin is still older than Kon because is the episode Ahead Of Our Own Tone, Corey, Laney, and Kon all went one year into the future without Kin, making him physically one year older than Kon, thereby making him the only character in the band to go through any canonical aging.
  • His last name "Kujira" is the Japanese word for Godzilla.
    • It also means "whale" which is what Godzilla is named after.
  • In Kin's original concept designs, he was intended to have bigger teeth and squinted eyes.
    • The reason this was changed was most likely because having an Asian character in the show with said physical appearance could be as an offensive racial stereotype.
  • Kin is the only member of Grojband not to have kissed someone. Corey and Laney kissed each other in "Curse of the Metrognome" and Kon kissed a bear in "Zoohouse Rock" and would later tongue kiss Trina in "Hair Today, Kon Tomorrow".
  • Todd Kauffman and Mark Thornton ship Kin Kujira with Kim Kagami.
