Play-Yan is known for his love of music, and his previous works are all about it. Through connections, he was able to appear in ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'' as well. In his private life, he likes to listen to music and taking walks while watching the night sky. He doesn't like to talk about his work too much, but he is always cheerful and has a gentle way with words<ref>[https://www.nintendo.co.jp/n08/brij/chara/stage04.html キャラクターアルバム ステージ４] (Character Album Stage 4)</ref>. The speaker of [[Rhythm_Shiryo_Shitsu#ナイトウォーク情報 (Night Walk Information)|Night Walk Information]] happened to meet Play-Yan in the city, who promptly said "I love music!" and disappeared up some stairs. He has an impeccable sense of rhythm and [[Magic Flowers]] grow in his footsteps when the timing is right<ref>"Good timing makes pretty flowers grow! Yay!" ~ Dialogue in [[Night Walk]], ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''</ref><ref>"Supposedly these flowers grow in the footsteps of a mysterious, white creature who prowls the night! Who is he? What does he want? Where did he learn his impeccable sense of rhythm?" ~ [[Magic Flowers]], ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''</ref>. | |||
During [[Night Walk]], every time Play-Yan successfully makes a flower grow or other object appear, one of the stars in the background grows. If all of the stars are at their max size at the end of the game, the final box releases a small star which Play-Yan grabs on to. In the [[OK]] and [[Superb]] epilogues, Play-Yan is seen making friends with the stars. | During [[Night Walk]], every time Play-Yan successfully makes a flower grow or other object appear, one of the stars in the background grows.

If he jumps from a box with one right over it, he'll get shocked by the fish and fall down. | ||
