Monkey Watch
This new watch works differently from most. You might want to read the manual to learn how to use it...
In order to operate the monkey watch itself, the player controls a Small Monkey holding onto the watch's hand. As the hand is ticks around the clock, other monkeys come out to greet the main monkey with a high-five to represent the time change on the wrist watch. On occasion, two consecutive pink monkeys appear instead of yellow ones, cued by an "Oookii oook-ook!" sound. These act as offbeats.
In the middle of the game, the screen zooms out to show the whole watch on a man's arm (also showing a monkey face in the middle), making it much harder to see the monkeys. After this, a monkey in a balloon appears, flying around waving at the screen.
Perfect!/Ace!?: The player high-fives the monkeys, who proceed to cheer.
Early!/Late!?: The player mistimes their high-five with a "tick" sound, making the other monkeys upset.
Miss...?: The player fails to high-five the monkeys, making them hang their heads in shame. High-fiving when the player is not supposed to causes the man's arm to shake during the zoomed out. The monkey face on the clock also makes a hurt expression.

This is without a doubt the cutest watch I've ever owned.
My parents bought me a monkey watch when I started high school. The monkeys are so cute that I forget about time and just stare at them. Kind of useless as a watch, isn't it?
The furigana on the prologue in Minna no Rhythm Tengoku and Rhythm Tengoku: The Best+ is, for stylistic reasons, placed only above the second kanji rather than the whole word. If corrected, it would be written as さる時計.
In Rhythm Heaven Megamix, the particles that come out when the monkeys high-five are stars instead of smack symbols. Due to this, the purple monkey's particles no longer fall off-screen.
