Le crabe royal, également appelé le roi des crabes, fait partie de la famille biologique des bernard-l'ermite. Alors que les crabes ont généralement huit pattes, les crabes royaux en ont six, avec deux pattes plus petites dans leur abdomen (cavité branchiale).

Les crabes royaux sont pêchés dans les mers entourant Hokkaido et sont une spécialité de l'île. La saison du crabe royal varie d'une région à l'autre, mais à Hokkaido, elle s'étend de l'automne à l'hiver (septembre à janvier).

Le crabe royal peut être consommé de diverses manières, mais s'il est consommé tel quel, il est préférable de le faire bouillir dans de l'eau salée ou de le cuire à la vapeur avant de le manger. Si le crabe est frais, il peut être mangé cru. Les œufs sont consommés marinés dans de la sauce de soja ou du sel. Le crabe royal peut être à la base de nombreux plats tels que les nabé, les gratins, les plats vinaigrés et le riz frit, et peut être utilisé tant dans les plats japonais, chinois, qu'occidentaux.
