Bossa and Nova

Bossa (ボッサ) and Nova (ノヴァ) are two primitive people who appear in Bossa Nova in Rhythm Heaven Fever and Rhythm Heaven Megamix.

Story
Bossa and Nova lived in a split-level cave in a trendy part of Big Field with Fruit Trees. They are a charming, witty, urbane couple who are adored by their neighbors. Bossa's work, which involves promoting conch-shell performances, takes him all over Big Field, and he is loved by all the animals, especially the elderly ones who appreciate his old-world manners. Nova meanwhile does housework, like cleaning the rooms, doing the laundry, and tending to flowers. They seem to pass their time by playing volleyball, although the ceiling in their cave was too low. If the player performs poorly in Bossa Nova, the two are seen splitting apart.

Nova is a well-known artist, and her paintings can be seen in all the best nearby caves. One day, Bossa took a day off to help Nova move the largest painting she's ever done to a cave near Big Hole with Mastodon Skeleton in It. She was paid with a lot of shiny stones and flint tools by an art collector. Bossa and Nova worked together to move the painting and hang it on the wall. The art collector was afraid that it would clash with the other pieces in the room, so they commissioned Nova to make more paintings to replaces them. They considered having Bossa quit his job to become Nova's full-time agent.

Bossa is known to get up early to tend to his garden, and his vegetables are said to be the best in the land. They are also full of vitamins, which is ideal for the elders' withered bodies. Nova makes his lunch every day before he sets off to work. On one particular day, as Bossa took a break by a big tree to eat his lunch, the smell attracted some young bears. He shared his lunch with them, and then took an afternoon nap in the sun. He then visited the old animals in the forest to check on them, and gave them his delicious vegetables and Nova's bread. He called out to the old owl Nonna Gufo (Nonna Gufo) who had a special box set aside for him. He thanked her and went home. Nova meanwhile was doing her chores and had gone out shopping after lunch. She first went to the watchmaker as her Monkey Watch was worn out, and the Small Monkeys had to be changed. Due to this, they were late to one of the Clappy Trio's shows the other day. She bought a rainbow-colored candle that Bossa asked for, then returned home and made pizza for dinner, which is Bossa's favorite. She of course used Bossa's vegetables. When Bossa returned home, he was greeted with the romantic atmosphere and Nova giving him a kiss. Bossa then opened the special box revealing a cake. It turned out it was Nova's birthday.

At some point, Bossa and Nova moved out to a new house in a giant tree. They like it better because it is warmer than their old cave, has a beautiful night view, and it has a volleyball court in the yard. They have expressed a desire to have children. Their only complaint is that the neighborhood has a few loud mastodons.
