- Jumpin' Jazz Description (Rhythm Heaven Megamix)

Jumpin' Jazz (ケロケロナイト), known in Rhythm Heaven as Frog Hop 2 (ケロケロダンス2), is the 33rd minigame in Rhythm Heaven and the 82nd minigame in Rhythm Heaven Megamix being the sequel to Frog Hop. The music in this game is now instrumental, played on a sax by the sax player, and the Frogettes appear slightly different, wearing top hats and fancy clothes.

Gameplay
The gameplay is exactly the same as its prequel, but the tempo is slightly faster, and several new commands are put in different spots throughout the song. The soundtrack is now instrumental as the sax player plays on a sax rather than singing. You have a lot of "Yahoo!" cues to do while shaking your hips, as well as dealing with the "Yeah, yeah, yeah!" cues.

Timing Notes

 * Hit: The beat is smoothly kept.
 * Barely: The frog gulps and starts to slightly sweat. A barely counts as a hit in Rhythm Heaven, but counts as a miss in Rhythm Heaven Megamix.
 * Miss: The frog bumps into the frog next to him. The other frogs give him an annoyed look.

Trivia

 * The sax player twirls his saxophone during a "Spin it, boys!" instead of spinning himself.
 * The "tink" sound effect when the backup dancer goes offbeat was replaced with a different sound effect that can be heard in Working Dough and Cheer Readers in Rhythm Heaven Megamix.
 * When going for a perfect in Rhythm Heaven, the game doesn't care about whether or not you got a barely, considering this game is very hard. This also applies to Lockstep, Lockstep 2, Frog Hop, Shoot-'Em-Up, and Shoot-'Em-Up 2.
 * This was changed in Rhythm Heaven Megamix.
 * In Rhythm Heaven, after the orange & green Frogettes spin, they suddenly get visible sleeves. Normally, everyone except the Sax Player have no sleeves. This was fixed in Rhythm Heaven Megamix.
