==Trivia==
*Despite being known as "knee-ball guy", his voice is femenine. In ''[[Rhythm Tengoku Gold]]'' and ''[[Rhythm Sesang]]'', his voice clips are recycled from a [[List of Scrapped Rhythm Games#Rhythm Heaven|scrapped rhythm game]] using a female announcer.
*Some other voice clips from the mentioned game are repurposed for [[Board Meeting]], meaning the Space Kicker has the same voice as the [[Assistant]] in Japanese.
