Ginger Kyde (ジャー・ジンジャー, Jā jinjā) is a traveling artist that appears some time after Corobo beats the Onii King.
During his introduction, Ginger breaks the fourth wall by apologizing to the player about losing the Art pieces. He asks Corobo to help him find all 100 pieces, exchanging weapons and armor for found art. Once an art piece is found, it can be viewed in the King's Art Exhibit. He and the exhibit, the Gallery de Ginger, are located in Corobo's Forest.
The exhibit itself is a beige tent with various UMA painted on the side of it such as the Onii, Mush Man and Marble Dragon. A paintbrush sticks out the top, and various Onii-like jars surround the base. A billboard explaining the gallery sits next to the entrance.
Once Corobo finds 50 pieces, Ginger will ask Corobo to catch the winning piece which turned into a UMA.
The Art pieces vary depending which regional version of the game is played, and are based on entries from a competition held before the game's release.
Etymology[]
In the English version, "Kyde" is a possible reference to a colloquial term for banana bread.

Trivia[]
- If the player were to use glitches or cheats to enter Corobo's Forest while making the game think they are still within the Kingdom, attempting to hire Ginger will make him say: "I'm sorry. I can't leave this place just yet." This is despite there being no situation during intended gameplay where this interaction would be possible.
- The Onii-like pots around the Gallery de Ginger resemble breakable power-up pots from Blackbird, another Yoshiro Kimura game released nine years after Little King's Story.
