A giant hand, that you play as, is going to write calligraphy -- with an unnecessary-yet-necessary amount of strength. When the giant hand reaches enough power, press A to write (with power). There are six different symbols to write besides the face. Near the end, the game goes faster and people come out dancing.

This game was remade in Rhythm Heaven Fever as an Extra Game. This can be unlocked for 41 medals. (Remember, medals are earned when getting a superb. You can't get medals for Night Walk or Extra Games.)
Near the end, the game goes faster and [[Mini Chounin|people]] come out dancing.
The graphics of the game are now updated to be in the same style as ''Rhythm Heaven Fever's'' artwork, the text is changed in the mini-game description and practice and the rating screens too. The controls and hits and misses are the same as before.
This game also returns in [[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]].

==Trivia==
*The person drawing the symbols may very well be The Wandering Samurai, as they share the same sound effects.
*If you miss the last one, it automatically drops the chance of getting a superb.
*The symbols written are actual Japanese symbols except the face, which is made of symbols, such as its nose.
*The symbolsare: 力(power) 寸(sun, a Japanese kind of measurement.) 心 (heart) 己 (oneself) レ (re Katakana) and a comma
*This is one of a few games to have different rating screens of both versions.
*In the Korean version, the title screen is different along with the rating screens and the last symbol drawn at the end.
