- Toss Boys Description

Toss Boys (トスボーイズ) is the twenty-seventh game in Rhythm Tengoku. It features the Toss Boys who toss a ball around and then serve it to each others. A sequel is later unlocked, called Toss Boys 2.

Gameplay
You play as three kids who are tossing a ball around. They yell the name of the person they are about to throw the ball to and proceed to do so after. The character controlled by the A button is Aka-chan (red), B button is Ao-kun (blue). and the character controlled by the D-Pad is Kii-yan (Yellow).There are three techniques (called super toss techniques in game): A-B Dual Toss: Aka-chan bounces the ball back and forth with Ao-kun. Ao-kun then either launches it to Kii-yan or throws it normally. Blue Blur Toss: Ao-kun bounces the ball a number of times which he usually launches to Kii-yan. Yellow Lightning Toss: Kii-yan bounces the ball two times in quick succession, the second one launching it with speed.

Controls

 * A: Hit ball with Aka-chan (Red kid)
 * B: Hit ball with Ao-kun (Blue kid)
 * D-Pad: Hit ball with Kii-yan (Yellow kid)

Timing Notes

 * Hit: The ball is hit and launched to the person whose name was called.
 * Barely: The person who hits the ball will look worried, and the ball will be out of shape. A barely counts as a miss.
 * Miss: The ball hits the kid's head, surprising them. The kid that threw the ball will have a distorted voice, usually a bit higher pitched.

OK

 * "う~ん．．．" (Yeah...)
 * "まぁまぁ、　かな. " (OK, I guess?)
 * "とりあえず．．．" (Anyway...)

Superb

 * "かなり　おちついてる！" (Pretty calm!)

Trivia

 * Despite it being named the "Toss Boys," Aka-chan is actually female. However, Ao-kun and Kii-yan are male.
 * Each one of their names are based off of Japanese colors (Aka is red, Ao is blue and Kii is yellow.)
 * All 3 of them are primary colors.
 * In this game, there is an unused version, where Aka-chan and Kii-yan also have a blur toss.
