*{{Nihongo|レ|Re}}
*{{Nihongo|、|a Japanese comma}}
*{{Nihongo|力|chikara|power}}
*{{Nihongo|己|onore|oneself}}
*{{Nihongo|寸|sun|a Japanese kind of measurement}}
*{{Nihongo|心|kokoro|heart}}
*the characters {{Nihongo|つるニハ○○ムし|tsurunihamarumushi}} arranged to form a face.

Near the end, the game goes faster and [[Mini Chounin|people]] come out dancing.
A gaint hand, that you play as, is going to write calligraphy -- with an unnecesary 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.

Perfect!/Ace!?: The symbol is successfully written.
Early!/Late!?: If early, the line turns out squiggled. If late, a messy spot of ink is made. Either way, a sigh is let out. The Mini Chounin stumble over. In Rhythm Tengoku, a "doink" sound is heard when this happens, but not in Rhythm Heaven Fever or Rhythm Heaven Megamix.
Miss...?: If missed completely, no marks are made, letting out a sigh. The Mini Chounin stumble over.
