Double Date
It's your first date with the girl of your dreams! Also, some weasels are on a date! Don't let the double date be ruined by flying balls!
The player controls A Boy, who is on a date with His Crush. They must kick away various sports balls that bounce toward them to protect a Weasel Couple. There are three types of balls that bounce toward the group.
Soccer balls appear most frequently, bouncing once.
Basketballs appear less frequently, which skid once and then bounce.
Footballs appear occasionally. They bounce three times before reaching the boy. They move at a slower rhythm than the others.
Perfect!/Ace!?: The boy kicks the ball away, seemingly knocking it into a nearby tree, causing leaves to fall. The weasels smile and cheer him on. When kicking away Footballs, the weasels jump for joy, surprising the girl a bit. The Football is seen in the background, where one of several characters catches or hits the ball.
Early!/Late!?: The boy attempts to kick the ball but cringes in pain as if he pulled his leg muscle. A "doink" sound is heard. The weasels look back in surprise, and the ball falls to the side.
Miss...?: The girl gives a worried look as the weasels squeak and duck under the hole to avoid the missed ball. A missed American football hits the orange weasel in the face, temporarily bruising it. Either way, the weasels give a dissapointed look.

Kicking isn't your strong suit. The footballs were tricky for you, huh?
Maybe football isn't your sport. You missed many American footballs.
Eh. Good enough.
Good try.
It's like you were born to kick! Footballs are clearly no problem for you! You did really well at the hard parts.
You've got a great kick. You can kick American footballs. You coped when the balls were flying.
Words from the Weasels
Kicking isn't your strong suit. The basketball team ran out of balls... The football team grunted angrily at you!
Eh. Passable.
It's like you were born to kick! The basketball team appreciated the rebounds! The football team grunted happily at you!
The coach thought his team lacked discipline. The truth was that the "accidental" lost balls were due to jealousy of the young couple and their better use of a beautiful day.
This game takes place in the daytime during the practice and Remix 10.
The butterflies on the prologue can be seen near the end of the game, passing by the player. Missing a ball while they're on screen causes them to fly away.
The Weasel Couple reappears later in Love Rap, sitting on the couch at the end of the game. In Cheer Readers, the boy reappears in the epilogue.
In Rhythm Heaven Megamix, the clovers in front of the Weasel Couple are not effected by the sunset effect, making them appear brighter than usual. The dog which can be seen catching one of the Footballs is also unusually stretched after catching it.
