He is the son of [[Tibby's Mom]], and the prince of [[Heaven World]]<ref>"...And that's how Heaven World got its prince back." ~ Ending narration, ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''</ref>. Tibby is prominently featured in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'''s promotional material, and has made cameos in other games.

==Description==
Tibby is a friendly pink creature, who does his best to help people with whatever is troubling them. He loves his friends, and enjoys playing with them. His catchphrase is "{{color|#0E49B3|Let's we go, amigo!}}", which he claims is commonly used in [[Heaven World]]<ref>"What? What's wrong? You never heard anyone say "{{color|#0E49B3|Let's we go, amigo}}"? E-everyone says it in Heaven World. All the time." ~ [[Tibby]], ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''</ref>. Tibby often misspells the name as {{Nihongo|Hevven World|てんのくに|Ten no Kuni}}<ref>"Heaven World. H-E-V-V-E-N. Heaven World!" ~ [[Tibby]], ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''</ref><ref>"Dear friends, I am back in Hevven World, safe and sound... [...] I'm back home and all, but there's something wrong with Hevven World! [...] Can you come to Hevven World and help me fix it?" ~ [[Tibby]]'s letter, ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''</ref>. Tibby used to act like a child, and had a habit of getting depressed and crying when faced with troubles<ref>"I guess I must have fallen down here... *sniff* Waaaahhhh! [...] I've got so many friends there, too... *sniff* I wanna go home. Waaaahhhh!" ~ Tibby, ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''</ref>. When he saw people who weren't crying or staying in bed all day, he believed they never had to face any troubles, unlike him. He was a mama's boy and would give up easily<ref>"You were such a mama's boy not too long ago... You seemed to give up on everything so easily. Remember? But not anymore! This time you saw it all the way through to the end! That really impressed me. You're a good...man, Tibby." ~ [[Betty]], ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''</ref>. After his journey, he learned that everyone has troubles, and decided to live as one who helps others. He is proud of his growth as a person<ref>"Now, like everyone, I've always had troubles. And I'd get depressed and cry, or stay in bed all day... When I'd see people who weren't in bed and weren't crying... I just assumed that they didn't have any troubles of their own. [...] But now I know... They're all just like me. We all have troubles--all different kinds, of course. And everyone faces them and keeps living their lives. And some of them help each other with the worst troubles. That's how I decided... I'm going to live as one of the ones who helps others. [...] {{color|#920D98|Mom}}, are you listening? I'm proud of what I've done--of what I've become." ~ Tibby, ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''</ref>.
==Story==
When Tibby was born, [[Tibby's Mom|his mom]] made a [[Stuffed Animal]] doll for him to play with. Tibby would always play with it and take it to bed, but he eventually grew out of it and started playing with the other kids in [[Heaven World]]<ref name="itemJP">"テビリが生まれた時、テビリのママが買ってきた人形。ベッドの中で、テビリとずっといっしょだったんだよ。でも、テビリが友だちとあそぶようになってからは、ママのトナリにおいてある。テビリはいつも、ママのそばにいるよってね。" (A doll that Tebiri's Mama bought when Tebiri was born. It was always with Tebiri in bed. But after Tebiri started playing with his friends, he kept it in his Mama's private place.

In ''[[Rhythm Tengoku The Best Plus Comic]]'' [[Rhythm Tengoku The Best Plus Comic#37テビリと天の国 (Tibby and Heaven World)|37テビリと天の国]] (Tibby and Heaven World), [[Tibby]] is seen riding on a horse around [[Mamarin Palace]]. He loses his grip however, and falls down into [[Earth World]], which leads into the story of the game. He encounters a mysterious individual (the player), who agrees to help him return to [[Heaven World]]. The two see a [[Lush Tower|Green Tower]] in the distance, and decide to go to it. They pass through various lands, helping various people with their troubles by clearing [[Rhythm Games]] along the way in order to progress. During these encounters, Tibby talks with the other characters, without the player being able to add to the conversation. The two are also periodically stopped by other characters, such as [[Rupert]] who appears to give information on newly unlocked features, or the [[Gatekeeper Trio]], who intend on challenging the duo with a modified [[Endless Game]].


'''Tibby''' (Japanese: '''テビリ''' ''Tebiri'') is a little bitch.
After clearing all of the lands along the way, the duo finally reach [[Lush Woods]], where the Green Tower, properly known as the [[Lush Tower]], can be found. Here they meet [[Trey]], who has been guarding the tower for a long time, and agrees to help Tibby reach [[Heaven World]] by having him and the player climb the tower, clearing [[Rhythm Games]] along the way to restore the flow to the tower, and thus activate it's power. Upon doing so, Tibby [[Farewell|rides a beam of green light up into the sky]], but this is not enough to reach [[Heaven World]]. [[Trey]] informs him that they need a rainbow of power for that, after which other towers appear, each based on the theme of each land, guarded by the same people encountered in them. After clearing them, Tibby [[To Heaven World|has enough power to return]] to [[Heaven World]]. The story appears to be finished, however, [[Tibby]] sends a letter to the player saying there's trouble in [[Heaven World]], asking for their help.


*yeah
The player, using the letter to climb up the rainbow, reaches [[Heaven World]]. Tibby explains that he doesn't know what's happened, but trusts that with the player's help, they can fix it. They pass through a few lands, helping [[Tibby]]'s friends by clearing [[Rhythm Games]] along the way in order to progress, and having one last encounter with the [[Gatekeeper Trio]]. After clearing all of the lands along the way, the duo finally reach [[Mamarin Palace]], which Tibby reveals is also [[Tibby's Mom|his mom]], and that he is fated to grow up into a palace just like her<ref>"When I grow up, I'll become a palace, too. I'll be just like {{color|#920D98|Mom}} is now. Are you surprised? I will stand here in Heaven World... watching over my people and their lives. So all this walking around freely like we've been doing... I can only do it while I'm still a kid." ~ [[Tibby]], ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''</ref>. Here they meet [[Colin]], who has been looking for Tibby to inform him that [[Tibby's Mom|his mom]] is in trouble. He asks the duo to climb up to the top of the palace to ask her face-to-face what's happened. To open the door however, they need to climb up the [[Left-Hand Tower|two]] [[Right-Hand Tower|towers]] next to the palace, clearing the [[Rhythm Games]] in them to restore the flow, and thus unlock the door to the palace proper.


After clearing the [[Rhythm Games]] within [[Tibby's Mom]] and climbing to the top, Tibby tries talking to her. Although she doesn't respond, Tibby explains to her how much has happened along his way back, meeting a lot of people, and learning that everyone else has troubles like him. He says he has decided to live as one who helps others, but still gets no response from his mother. She then exhales, revealing she was actually holding her breath to cure her hiccups the whole time, which is what caused the spooky voice and gloomy skies in [[Heaven World]]. Tibby is shocked to learn this, but quickly smiles again, knowing everything's back to normal. [[Tibby's Mom]] notices her son brought along a new friend (the player), thanks them for helping her son and hopes they stay friends for a very long time<ref>"Is that so? Well then, thank you for helping my son. I hope you and he will be friends... for a long, long time." ~ Tibby's Mom, ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''</ref>. During the [[Gameplay Counts]] after this, Tibby is seen blowing bubbles with his friends.

In [[Rhythm Tengoku The Best Plus Comic#17テビリとマスター (Tibby and Barista)|17テビリとマスター]] (Tibby and Barista), as Tibby shares a peach with [[Barista]], he asks him how old he is.

In [[Rhythm Tengoku The Best Plus Comic#19テビリとウコン (Tibby and Colin)|19テビリとウコン]] (Tibby and Colin), Tibby meets with [[Colin]], and notices how the latter's belly looks like a door. [[Colin]] claims that it is, and opens it up for Tibby to see inside. In [[Rhythm Tengoku The Best Plus Comic#23テビリとバッタ (Tibby and Bertram)|23テビリとバッタ]] (Tibby and Bertram), Tibby meets with [[Bertram]], and tells him about [[Colin]]'s belly being "that". [[Bertram]], now sweating, comments that [[Colin]]'s belly is "cool", which confuses Tibby. [[Bertram]] tries to correct himself and says it's "cute", which confuses Tibby again. [[Bertram]] tries to assure him that he knows what they're talking about. In [[Rhythm Tengoku The Best Plus Comic#28テビリとオモナガ (Tibby and Philip)|28テビリとオモナガ]] (Tibby and Philip), Tibby meets with [[Philip]], who tells him that he started learning ballroom dancing. He mentions the classroom is on the [[Tangotronic 3000|fourth floor]] of the [[Songbird Tower]], how the [[Tangotronic|teacher]]'s neck twists around when things go well, and how his arms start stretching. He mentions how the teacher's neck stretches if he messes up, and that he sometimes [[Songbird Remix|wears a bird beak]]. Tibby reluctantly moves away. In [[Rhythm Tengoku The Best Plus Comic#31テビリとイヨカン (Tibby and Betty)|31テビリとイヨカン]] (Tibby and Betty), [[Betty]] comes to Tibby to complain about how [[Colin]] ate all her snacks, how [[Bertram]] scribbled on the book she gave him, and that [[Philip]] stood her up on her date.

In [[Rhythm Tengoku The Best Plus Comic#33レスラーとファン (Wrestler and Fans)|33レスラーとファン]] (Wrestler and Fans), Tibby and his friends take a picture with [[Wrestler]]. [[Rhythm Tengoku The Best Plus Comic#37テビリと天の国 (Tibby and Heaven World)|37テビリと天の国]] (Tibby and Heaven World), as mentioned above, shows the incident during which Tibby falls from [[Heaven World]] at the start of the story of the game. In [[Rhythm Tengoku The Best Plus Comic#38記念日 (Anniversary)|38記念日]] (Anniversary), Tibby is playing something, when he suddenly gets a phone call from the [[Martian]]. The alien tries to tell him about [[Rhythm Heaven Megamix|the game]] having sold 650,000 units, but as it speaks in its own language, which Tibby doesn't understand, he hangs up, thinking it was a prank call. Finally, in [[Rhythm Tengoku The Best Plus Comic#39言葉 (Language)|Language]], the [[Martian]] tells Tibby that it has now mastered the Earthling language. Tibby asks the alien about the pork rice bowl he was promised the previous day, to which the [[Martian]] reacts with alien speak.

==Trivia==
*In previous games, there would always be a character who served as a sort of "host", being the one who greets the player when starting and reaching the endings, and is prominently featured in the game. [[Tibby]] serves this role for ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'' in the latter sense, and also acts as a more traditional "host" in the ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix Demo]]''.
*Tibby appears as the game's loading icon. Through the [[Stable]] minigame, the player can earn [[Mascots]], which can appear as the loading icon once obtained. Tibby has a [[Mascot]] obtained through this minigame as well, meaning there are two separate loading icons based on Tibby.
*Although the information given in the [[Rhythm Item]]s is mostly consistent across languages, some details are changed. For example, in ''[[Rhythm Tengoku: The Best+]]'' and ''[[Rhythm Sesang: The Best+]]'', it is stated that [[Tibby's Mom]] bought a doll for her son<ref name="itemJP"/><ref name="itemKR"/>, while in other versions, it is stated she made it herself. In the Italian version, it is stated she made it for his birthday, rather than when he was born<ref>"La mamma di Tibby ha cucito questo peluche per regalarglielo il giorno della sua nascita. Ora lui non ci gioca più, ma lei lo conserva ancora, come ricordo del suo dolce bambino." (Tibby's mom sewed this soft toy to give to him on his birthday. Now he doesn't play with it anymore, but she still keeps it, as a memento of her sweet little boy.) ~ [[Stuffed Animal|Peluche]] (Stuffed toy), ''[[Rhythm Paradise Megamix]]'' (Italian)</ref>, while the German and Spanish versions leave it vaguely as being during Tibby's childhood<ref>"Fipsis Mama hat ihm dieses Plüschtier gemacht, als er noch ein Kind war. Er spielt zwar nicht mehr damit, aber sie bewahrt es als Andenken an ihren kleinen Jungen auf." (Fipsi's mom made him this stuffed animal when he was a kid. He doesn't play with it anymore, but she keeps it as a keepsake for her little boy.) ~ [[Stuffed Animal|Plüschtier]] (Stuffed Animal), ''[[Rhythm Paradise Megamix]]'' (German)</ref><ref>"La madre de Tibby le regaló este peluche cuando era muy pequeño. Como a él ya no le gusta, su madre se lo ha quedado de recuerdo." (Tibby's mother gave him this stuffed animal when he was very little. Since he doesn't like it anymore, his mother has kept it as a souvenir.) ~ [[Stuffed Animal|Peluche]] (Stuffed toy), ''[[Rhythm Paradise Megamix]]'' (Spanish)</ref>.
*There is an unused sprite of Tibby sitting at the [[Café]], carrying a backpack. While each character met in [[Earth World]] sometimes appear as customers in the [[Café]] after their respective Stages are cleared, Tibby never does this.
*One [[niwanetwork:Nintendo 3DS|Nintendo 3DS]] [[niwanetwork:HOME Menu|HOME Menu]] theme is based on Tibby, depicting him dressed up as various characters from the game. The name of this theme in North America incorrectly uses Tibby's Japanese name, being named {{nihongo|Rhythm Heaven Megamix Costumed Tebiri<ref>[https://askhuebird.tumblr.com/post/146087947014/gotta-love-how-the-rhythm-heaven-megamix-theme Tweet, twe-twe-tweet, tweet, squawk!, [[Gotta love how the Rhythm Heaven Megamix theme...]</ref>|リズム天国 ザ・ベスト+ まねっこテビリ<ref>[https://www.nintendo.co.jp/hardware/3dsseries/theme/archive/201506.html いろんな「テーマ」で3DSをきせかえ。 テーマ一覧 2015年6月|ニンテンドー3DS|任天堂] (Customize your 3DS with various "themes".

Tibby (テビリ?, Tebiri) is the main character in the Story Mode of Rhythm Heaven Megamix. He is the son of Tibby's Mom, and the prince of Heaven World[1]. Tibby is prominently featured in Rhythm Heaven Megamix's promotional material, and has made cameos in other games.

Description

Tibby is a friendly pink creature, who does his best to help people with whatever is troubling them. He loves his friends, and enjoys playing with them. His catchphrase is "Let's we go, amigo!", which he claims is commonly used in Heaven World[2]. Tibby often misspells the name as Hevven World (てんのくに?, Ten no Kuni)[3][4]. Tibby used to act like a child, and had a habit of getting depressed and crying when faced with troubles[5]. When he saw people who weren't crying or staying in bed all day, he believed they never had to face any troubles, unlike him. He was a mama's boy and would give up easily[6]. After his journey, he learned that everyone has troubles, and decided to live as one who helps others. He is proud of his growth as a person[7].

Story

When Tibby was born, his mom made a Stuffed Animal doll for him to play with. Tibby would always play with it and take it to bed, but he eventually grew out of it and started playing with the other kids in Heaven World[8][9]. Tibby's Mom keeps the doll as a reminder of her little boy[10].

In Rhythm Tengoku The Best Plus Comic 37テビリと天の国 (Tibby and Heaven World), Tibby is seen riding on a horse around Mamarin Palace. He loses his grip however, and falls down into Earth World, which leads into the story of the game. He encounters a mysterious individual (the player), who agrees to help him return to Heaven World. The two see a Green Tower in the distance, and decide to go to it. They pass through various lands, helping various people with their troubles by clearing Rhythm Games along the way in order to progress. During these encounters, Tibby talks with the other characters, without the player being able to add to the conversation. The two are also periodically stopped by other characters, such as Rupert who appears to give information on newly unlocked features, or the Gatekeeper Trio, who intend on challenging the duo with a modified Endless Game.

After clearing all of the lands along the way, the duo finally reach Lush Woods, where the Green Tower, properly known as the Lush Tower, can be found. Here they meet Trey, who has been guarding the tower for a long time, and agrees to help Tibby reach Heaven World by having him and the player climb the tower, clearing Rhythm Games along the way to restore the flow to the tower, and thus activate it's power. Upon doing so, Tibby rides a beam of green light up into the sky, but this is not enough to reach Heaven World. Trey informs him that they need a rainbow of power for that, after which other towers appear, each based on the theme of each land, guarded by the same people encountered in them. After clearing them, Tibby has enough power to return to Heaven World. The story appears to be finished, however, Tibby sends a letter to the player saying there's trouble in Heaven World, asking for their help.

The player, using the letter to climb up the rainbow, reaches Heaven World. Tibby explains that he doesn't know what's happened, but trusts that with the player's help, they can fix it. They pass through a few lands, helping Tibby's friends by clearing Rhythm Games along the way in order to progress, and having one last encounter with the Gatekeeper Trio. After clearing all of the lands along the way, the duo finally reach Mamarin Palace, which Tibby reveals is also his mom, and that he is fated to grow up into a palace just like her[11]. Here they meet Colin, who has been looking for Tibby to inform him that his mom is in trouble. He asks the duo to climb up to the top of the palace to ask her face-to-face what's happened. To open the door however, they need to climb up the two towers next to the palace, clearing the Rhythm Games in them to restore the flow, and thus unlock the door to the palace proper.

After clearing the Rhythm Games within Tibby's Mom and climbing to the top, Tibby tries talking to her. Although she doesn't respond, Tibby explains to her how much has happened along his way back, meeting a lot of people, and learning that everyone else has troubles like him. He says he has decided to live as one who helps others, but still gets no response from his mother. She then exhales, revealing she was actually holding her breath to cure her hiccups the whole time, which is what caused the spooky voice and gloomy skies in Heaven World. Tibby is shocked to learn this, but quickly smiles again, knowing everything's back to normal. Tibby's Mom notices her son brought along a new friend (the player), thanks them for helping her son and hopes they stay friends for a very long time[12]. During the Gameplay Counts after this, Tibby is seen blowing bubbles with his friends.

Tibby makes numerous appearances in Rhythm Tengoku The Best Plus Comic. In 03 ぼく、テビリ! (I'm Tibby!) introduces Tibby as a pink ball of fluff. It grows legs, and eventually reveals itself to be Tibby. In Tibby and Peach, Tibby gets hit on the head by a peach. The peach bounces off his hair, and he starts laughing. Several more peaches start falling, and soon Tibby is trapped under a lot of a peaches. In 11テビリとバーバーショップ (Tibby and Barbershop), Tibby is getting a haircut at the Barbershop. Tibby falls asleep as Captain Tuck cuts his hair, but he overdoes it. Embarrassed, the barber moves away, as the seal that was sitting behind them climbs onto Tibby's head to hide the mistake. In 17テビリとマスター (Tibby and Barista), as Tibby shares a peach with Barista, he asks him how old he is. The dog claims he is 100 years older than Tibby, then says he was just kidding.

In 19テビリとウコン (Tibby and Colin), Tibby meets with Colin, and notices how the latter's belly looks like a door. Colin claims that it is, and opens it up for Tibby to see inside. In 23テビリとバッタ (Tibby and Bertram), Tibby meets with Bertram, and tells him about Colin's belly being "that". Bertram, now sweating, comments that Colin's belly is "cool", which confuses Tibby. Bertram tries to correct himself and says it's "cute", which confuses Tibby again. Bertram tries to assure him that he knows what they're talking about. In 28テビリとオモナガ (Tibby and Philip), Tibby meets with Philip, who tells him that he started learning ballroom dancing. He mentions the classroom is on the fourth floor of the Songbird Tower, how the teacher's neck twists around when things go well, and how his arms start stretching. He mentions how the teacher's neck stretches if he messes up, and that he sometimes wears a bird beak. Tibby reluctantly moves away. In 31テビリとイヨカン (Tibby and Betty), Betty comes to Tibby to complain about how Colin ate all her snacks, how Bertram scribbled on the book she gave him, and that Philip stood her up on her date. Tibby comments on each occurance, saying Philip is always busy with baseball practice, but also secretly worried about the "date" part.

In 33レスラーとファン (Wrestler and Fans), Tibby and his friends take a picture with Wrestler. 37テビリと天の国 (Tibby and Heaven World), as mentioned above, shows the incident during which Tibby falls from Heaven World at the start of the story of the game. In 38記念日 (Anniversary), Tibby is playing something, when he suddenly gets a phone call from the Martian. The alien tries to tell him about the game having sold 650,000 units, but as it speaks in its own language, which Tibby doesn't understand, he hangs up, thinking it was a prank call. Finally, in Language, the Martian tells Tibby that it has now mastered the Earthling language. Tibby asks the alien about the pork rice bowl he was promised the previous day, to which the Martian reacts with alien speak.

Trivia

  • In previous games, there would always be a character who served as a sort of "host", being the one who greets the player when starting and reaching the endings, and is prominently featured in the game. Tibby serves this role for Rhythm Heaven Megamix in the latter sense, and also acts as a more traditional "host" in the Rhythm Heaven Megamix Demo.
  • Tibby appears as the game's loading icon. Through the Stable minigame, the player can earn Mascots, which can appear as the loading icon once obtained. Tibby has a Mascot obtained through this minigame as well, meaning there are two separate loading icons based on Tibby.
  • Although the information given in the Rhythm Items is mostly consistent across languages, some details are changed. For example, in Rhythm Tengoku: The Best+ and Rhythm Sesang: The Best+, it is stated that Tibby's Mom bought a doll for her son[8][9], while in other versions, it is stated she made it herself. In the Italian version, it is stated she made it for his birthday, rather than when he was born[13], while the German and Spanish versions leave it vaguely as being during Tibby's childhood[14][15].
  • There is an unused sprite of Tibby sitting at the Café, carrying a backpack. While each character met in Earth World sometimes appear as customers in the Café after their respective Stages are cleared, Tibby never does this.
  • One Nintendo 3DS HOME Menu theme is based on Tibby, depicting him dressed up as various characters from the game. The name of this theme in North America incorrectly uses Tibby's Japanese name, being named Rhythm Heaven Megamix Costumed Tebiri[16] (リズム天国 ザ・ベスト+ まねっこテビリ[17]?, Rhythm Tengoku: The Best+ Manekko Tebiri). This is corrected in the European Theme Shop, where it is named Rhythm Paradise Megamix Costumed Tibby[18].
  • Tibby makes a cameo in WarioWare Gold as a plush toy during the prologue to Mona's stage, Search for Style. This same plush appears again in WarioWare: Get It Together! in the introduction to Mona's level That's Life.
  • Tibby makes a cameo in a special comic known as Ashley's Halloween Night (アシュリーのハロウィンナイト?, Ashurī no Harou~in Naito)[19], where he joins Ashley and Red among others on Halloween.
  • Tibby later makes a cameo in a Daigasso! Band Brothers P comic, alongside Martian and Red, attending Ashley's live performance[20].
