Ninja Bodyguard

"It's an enemy raid! Take on their challenge with both of your hands. (No practice!)"

- Ninja Description

Ninja (忍者 ninja) is the twenty second Rhythm Game in Rhythm Tengoku.

Rhythm Tengoku
The player controls a Ninja, who is protecting his master from an onslaught of enemies trying to assassinate him.

Gameplay
In this rhythm game, the player controls the Ninja who wears all black. He uses the A button, and then the D-Pad, to swing his sword back in forth in time to destroy the arrows shot as his master.

Controls

 * A: Swing Sword Right. Can only be done if the sword is to the left
 * D-Pad: Swing Sword Left. Can only be done if the sword is to the right.

Hit or Miss

 * Hit: The arrow is split in half.
 * Barely: The arrow will bounce out of the way, making a shine noise. A barely counts as a miss.
 * Miss: The arrow will be shot in front of the master's head.

Rating Notes

 * Try again: "No! The feudal lord has fainted!"
 * OK: ""Forgive me, my lord!"
 * Superb: "He told me "great job"!"

Rhythm Heaven 3DS
Ninja returns with updated graphics in Rhythm Heaven The Best +. Unlike the other minigames from Rhythm Tengoku that returned to this new installment, this one has its own practice tutorial added and the rating notes are completely different from the original ones. The Gameplay, hit and miss are the same as before.

Trivia

 * This is the only rhythm game to, instead of starting with a practice, starts with a cutscene.
