==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*This minigame is notably based on the ''kitsune'' of Japanese mythology. Kitsunes were foxes who could shapeshift to their will.
*This [[Rhythm Game]] is based on the [[wikipedia:Kitsune|kitsune]] of Japanese mythology. Kitsune are foxes who can shapeshift at will.
*Toran and Porin's names are a pun on ''toranporin'', the Japanese word for trampoline. Because of this, the [[Rhythm Heaven Silver|English translation project]] refers to the minigame as "Tram and Pauline".
*[[Tram]] makes cameo appearances in the epilogues to [[Remix 2 (DS)|Remix 2]] in ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]'' and [[Figure Fighter 3]] in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]'' and ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''.
*Toran makes a two cameos in later games, one in [[Rhythm Heaven]] and one in [[Rhythm Heaven Fever]].
*This game is the first to have its [[Practice]] theme be a simplified rendition of the main theme without the lead instrument, prior to the popularization of this style in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]''.
**In [[Rhythm Heaven]], Toran appears in the rating screens for [[Remix 2 (DS)|Remix 2]]. Here, he is a surfer who's skill varies depending on the player's performance.
==Development History==
**In [[Rhythm Heaven Fever]], if the player gets a superb rank on [[Figure Fighter 2]], Toran can be seen in the rating screen behind the Muscle Doll.
