*[[wikipedia:Manzai|Manzai]] is a Japanese comedy routine which involves two comedians. It involves a tsukkomi, or straight man (in this case Kasuke), who reacts to the boke, or funny man (Kosuke)'s jokes and gags, often with slapstick.
**The idea of a manzai routine was used before in [[Rhythm Shiryo Shitsu#リズム漫才 (Rhythm Manzai)|Rhythm Manzai]] in ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]''.
*Many of the voices in the game were recorded in-house<ref name="us"/>.
**Interestingly, there is a Voice Version of the song in ''[[Minna no Rhythm Tengoku Zen Kyoku-shu]]'' which uses different takes for the voice clips, while also lacking the sound effects. The order of the puns is also different from the 29th one onward.
*Inputting the code word {{Nihongo|まさにべつもの}} in [[Police Call]] gives the player a tip about there being a code word in this game (the word is {{Nihongo|しあいみせて}}: after a few speed ups, the sliding doors show the code word instead). The code word can be put into [[Police Call]] for an easter egg.
**Inputting the code word {{Nihongo|ねたばらし}}, found in [[Wake-Up Caller]], in [[Police Call]] will play a version of Manzai with voice clips, though it is different to the Voice Version mentioned above.
*As the game was replaced with [[Mr. Upbeat]] overseas, which in turn was made to be the 1st [[Endless Game]] rather than the 4th, the rest of the games between them were moved up, and their medal requirements were adjusted. It also inherited the code words for [[Police Call]] originally associated with Manzai.
**For the same reason, the [[Reading Material]] "[[A Musical Term|おっとりーず]]" ''(Ottorizu)'', received as the [[Gift]] in [[Karate Man 2 (Wii)|Karate Man 2]], which originally contained a more traditional manzai routine between the two birds, was replaced with one related to [[Mr. Upbeat (character)|Mr. Upbeat]] himself. The code word that provided the lyrical version of Manzai, now replaced with {{Nihongo|BOUTS}}, plays a version of [[Rhythm Fighter]] instead.
