- Power Calligraphy Description (Rhythm Tengoku)

"Have you ever tried writing Japanese calligraphy? It requires grace, finesse, and a surprising amount of upper-body strength."

- Power Calligraphy Description (Rhythm Heaven Fever and Rhythm Heaven Megamix)

Power Calligraphy (リズムお習字) is the 21st game in Rhythm Tengoku, the 3rd Extra game unlocked with 41 Medals in Rhythm Heaven Fever and the 23rd game in Rhythm Heaven Megamix. It's about a man who is trying to learn how to write calligraphy.

Gameplay
You play as a giant hand writing calligraphy with a surprising amount of strength. When the giant hand reaches enough power, press A to write. There are six different symbols to write (レ ("Re" Katakana),  、 ( a Japanese comma), 力 (power), 己 (oneself), 寸 (sun, a Japanese kind of measurement), 心 (heart), and the characters つるニハ○○ムし arranged to form a face). Near the end, the game goes faster and people come out dancing.

Button Mode

 * A: Write (with power)

Simple Tap Mode

 * Tap: Write (with power)

Timing Notes

 * Hit: The symbol is successfully written
 * Barely: If early, the line turns out squiggled. If late, a messy spot of ink is made. A barely counts as a miss.
 * Miss: If missed completely no marks are made, letting out a sigh.

Trivia

 * There is a string in Rhythm Tengoku 's code reading "リズムお習字 ２" directly after the text strings for Remix 8, meaning that this game was meant to have a sequel, but it was scrapped.
 * If you miss the last one, it automatically drops the chance of getting a superb.
 * The "The End" kanji that appears in Japanese version was kept in international version of Rhythm Heaven Megamix, unlike Rhythm Heaven Fever.
 * In the Korean version, the title screen is different along with the rating screens and the last symbol drawn at the end.
