This game | This game has the player control a [[Ninja]] who protects his [[Lord]] from an enemy onslaught shooting arrows. The player must swing the sword back and forth following the enemy's pattern to slice the arrows. | ||
In ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'', rather than a [[Practice]], the game has an opening cutscene. It begins with an enemy [[Ninja]] shooting an arrow, cuts to a shot of the arrow flying through the air from the enemy's castle to the [[Lord]]'s castle through the night sky, then cuts to the [[Lord]] taking a walk, interrupted as the arrow sticks itself in the wall in front of him. As he turns around in confusion, the [[Ninja]] drops in to protect him from further arrows. This cutscene can be skipped the same way as a [[Practice]]. ''[[Rhythm Tengoku (Arcade)]]'' compensates for the lack of a [[Practice]] with a "How to Play" demonstration prior to the opening cutscene. | |||
In ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'', the game is given a proper [[Practice]] session, in which the arrows are shot by allied [[Ninja]]s at a wooden dummy with a [[wikipedia:Henohenomoheji|henohenomoheji]] drawn on it, representing the [[Lord]]. Once [[Practice]] is complete, the [[Ninja]] jumps into the air, followed by a fade transition into the opening cutscene. Skipping the [[Practice]] also skips the cutscene. | |||

** | **During the opening cutscene, a unique scene showing the arrow flying between the two castles is shown. The castles look identical aside from the horn-like protrusions on the roof which vary in color, the enemy's being red and the [[Lord]]'s being yellow. For some reason, they are both red in [[Rhythm Tengoku (Arcade)|the arcade version]]. | ||
**During this scene, one can also see what might be [[wikipedia:Mount Fuji|Mount Fuji]] in the background. | |||
