File:Rhythm Tengoku Unused Gameplay Counts Power Calligraphy 2.png

There is an unused gameplay history screen in Rhythm Tengoku which can be accessed through Sequence Test, which lists all the games and things in the Omaku Corner, the average score the player currently has (using a numbering system from 0 to 1000 which is hidden from the player in normal gameplay), and the amount of plays. Among the games is a string reading リズムお習字 ２ (Rhythm o Shuji 2^?).

In the game's RAM, there is an area which keeps track of the player's Rank on each Rhythm Game, with the one for arrange versions being directly after the equivalent long version. There is a byte just after the one for Rhythm o Shuji, reserved for Rhythm o Shuji 2. Changing it does affect the rank in the gameplay history screen, but it has no effect on the Game Select. There is no playable data of this game.

In Rhythm Tengoku (Arcade), the sprites for the Mini Chounin contain an unused set of numbers from 1 to 6.

Rhythm Heaven Fever

Power Calligraphy consists of the following versions in Rhythm Heaven Fever:

agbKanji/ver0		Power Calligraphy

Regional Differences

The kanji 完 (Kan^?, The End) was translated in the localized versions of Rhythm Heaven Fever.

In Rhythm World Wii, the character on the prologue and Mini Chounin are given traditional Korean clothing. The face at the end has the る (Ru^?) character replaced with a 3, resulting in つ3ニハ○○ムし. The sound effects for this sequence are modified to match.

	()Maybe I should stick with pencils...	Who says calligraphy isn't fun?	Hooray for Japanese calligraphy!
	()I should probably use a pencil...	We should study calligraphy more!	We love calligraphy class!

	()후우~ 이건 아니지	서예를 좀 더 즐기자!	서예는 상당히 재미있군!
	()(Phew~ that won't do.)	(Let's have more fun with calligraphy!)	(Calligraphy is so fun!)

Rhythm Heaven Megamix

Power Calligraphy consists of the following versions in Rhythm Heaven Megamix:

KR		Power Calligraphy Right-Hand Remix

Unused Content

There are unused stroke patterns, namely requiring the player to perform the third stroke of the "力" character aside from the fourth that they do in the game, and the fourth stroke of the "心" character aside from the third and fifth that they do in the game.

There are unused subroutines for each character's pattern and the page being readied for them, but with a swing rhythm. While most of these were previously used in Remix 4 in Rhythm Tengoku, the "レ", "、", "寸" and face were never used in swing.

Regional Differences

The kanji 完 (Kan^?, The End) was translated in the localized versions of Rhythm Heaven Fever, but aside from Rhythm Sesang: The Best+, this was reverted back to its original Japanese form in Rhythm Heaven Megamix.

In Rhythm Sesang: The Best+, the same changes from Rhythm World Wii apply. Interestingly, the Official Game Trailer doesn't use the localized artwork for this game.
