It plays the same as the 1P version, except it has a split screen display to accommodate the second player. As a consequence of this design, there is only one column of dancers per screen, and they walk over the paper.<gallery>Screenshot Arcade Rhythm o Shuji 2P.png</gallery>{{clear}}

*There is a string in ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]''<nowiki/>'s code reading "リズムお習字 ２"<ref>https://tcrf.net/Talk:Rhythm_Tengoku_(Game_Boy_Advance)#English_Fan_Translation_Findings</ref> directly after the text strings for Remix 8, meaning that this game was meant to have a sequel, but it was scrapped.
*If you miss the last kanj, it automatically drops the chance of getting a superb.
*The "The End" kanji that appears in Japanese version was kept in the international version of ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'', unlike ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]''.
*In the Korean version, various things were changed, as seen below.
*In the GBA version, the title card's name has a different name other than having "リズムお習字" .
