Ninja no Shison

"オレのじいちゃんの じいちゃんの じいちゃんは 忍者なんだぜ. " "(Watch out, my grandfather's grandfather's grandfather was a ninja!)"

- Ninja no Shison Description

Ninja no Shison (忍者の子孫) is the 39th game in Rhythm Tengoku and a sequel to Ninja Bodyguard. In this game, the player controls Tanaka, a descendant of the Black Ninja. Here, he must protect his girlfriend from rocks fired by the Bad Guys' slingshots.

Gameplay
The gameplay is identical to the original, minus the aesthetic changes. Some of the patterns are more complex than the original.

GBA Version

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

Arcade Version

 * D-Pad: Swing Sword Left and Right (depends on its current place).

Timing Notes

 * Hit: The bullet is split in half.
 * Barely: The bullet will bounce out of the way, making a "cling" noise. A barely counts as a miss.
 * Miss: The bullet goes past the man and shatters on the fence, shocking the girl.

Header

 * "カノジョの ひとこと" (A word from the girlfriend.)

Try Again

 * "ちゃんと 守ってよネ…." (Please protect me properly...)
 * "すばやい 棒さばきが みじゅくね. " (Your fast stick timing is unskilled.)
 * "「五連石」 に コテンパンね. " (You couldn't handle the "five rocks in a row".)

OK

 * "う~ん．．．" (Yeah...)
 * "まぁまぁ、 かな. " (OK, I guess?)
 * "とりあえず．．．" (Anyway...)
 * "よしと します. " (You did your best.)

Superb

 * "すばやい 棒さばきだったわ！" (Your fast stick timing is good!)
 * "「五連石返し」 が おみごとよ！" (The "five rocks in a row" reflection was wonderful!)
 * "すごい！ いっしゅんで２コの石を！！" (Amazing! 2 rocks in one instant!)

Ninja's Descendant 2P

- Ninja no Shison 2P Description

Ninja no Shison also appears in the 2P mode of Rhythm Tengoku (Arcade) where it is referred to as Ninja no Shison 2P (忍者の子孫 2P). It plays the same as the 1P version, except the two players take turns on each section. This effectively doubles the length of the game.

Trivia

 * The graphics for this game are reused from a previous remix, Remix 5. This is the only time this happens in the series.
