    Story

    While the player is writing Japanese calligraphy, these fairy tale people seemingly come out of nowhere. They're not the steadiest people, and if the player gets the writing messed up, they'll fall over in disappointment. They bow when the face at the end is shown, as if they worship it. They have yet to break away from a feudal society[2].

    不思議ふしぎ魅力みりょくのキャラクターのおおさでいえば、『リズム天国てんごく』のみぎ作品さくびんはそんなにない。たとえば「子孫しそんたち」「ウラおとこ」「わるもの」、ひねったのか、そのままなのか、わからない。また、「ミニ町人ちょうにん」「ラブさん」「トランとポリン」、かわいい、なんていうか、とてもかわいい。そんななかから今回こんかい、「コーラスメン」をどうぞ。
    When it comes to having many mysterious and charming characters, there are not many works to the right of Rhythm Heaven. For example, Shison-tachi, Mr. Upbeat, Waru Mono, I don't know if they were twisted or have always been like that. Meanwhile, Mini Chōnin, Love-san, Tram and Poline are cute, very cute. Please enjoy the Chorus Kids this time.

    Trivia

    • If the player makes a mistake while playing Power Calligraphy in Rhythm Heaven Fever and Rhythm Heaven Megamix before the Mini Chōnin make their appearance, a few pixels of one of the fallen townsfolk can be spotted on the top of the screen, which is easier to see in the latter game. They do not get up until the section where they are supposed to appear in.
