In [[Hole in One]], {{Nihongo|'''Monkey'''|おさるさん|Osaru-san}} is seen with his friend, [[Mandrill]], working as a professional golf coach for the [[Golfer]]. Since it's the first [[Rhythm Game]] in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]'', he introduces the player to the concept of rhythm.

In [[Animal Acrobat]], the {{Nihongo|'''monkey'''|おサル|Osaru}} (named '''José''' in the French version of ''[[Rhythm Paradise Megamix]]''<ref>"Un show époustouflant ce soir sous notre chapiteau ! Pas de ingeries inutiles avec José l'acrobate !" (A breathtaking show tonight under our marquee! No unnecessary injuries with José the acrobat!) ~ [[Animal Acrobat|Le cirque des acrobates]] description, ''[[Rhythm Paradise Megamix]]''</ref>) swings on elephants and [[Giraffe]]s to earn his stripes as an official Animal Acrobat at the circus. He later appears in [[Donut Remix]] with blue fur and a cowlick, where he is shown to love donuts. In [[Final Remix]], he shows up riding a cloud through [[Munchy Monk]] and [[Ninja Bodyguard]], before hopping off to swing on elephants and a giraffe in [[Animal Acrobat]].

In [[Jungle Gymnast]], she chases her dream of atavistic aerialism by swinging on not only elephants and giraffes, but also {{Nihongo|white monkeys|白い おサルさん|Shiroi Osaru-san}}, who lend many helping hands (and feet). She received her bow from her brother when she joined the circus, and wears it for every show and rehearsal<ref>"My brother gave me this red ribbon when I joined the circus. I wear it for every show and rehearsal. It's nice to have him looking out for me (or at least for my head)." ~ [[Cute Ribbon]], ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''</ref>.
