Unused Content

While each character has their own Special Move in the game, technically they are all capable of performing any Special Move with any combination of characters. They have voice clips for all possible combinations, not all of which are used. All three are also capable of popping the ball, something only Kii-yan does in the game. Interestingly, Aka-chan is shown with larger hands in the Superb epilogues to Toss Boys and Toss Boys 2, which would match how they'd look if she were to pop the ball. There are also unused sprites of the ball with a white outline around it, and various white spheres, perhaps depicting the ball in a glow. There is an unused action allowing each character to catch the ball, after which their respective inputs no longer effect them.

In Rhythm Tengoku (Arcade), there are unused sprites of circles with , , and  displayed on them. It is unknown which color palette is intended to be used for them. There are also sprites of a large "1" and "2" with an unknown purpose.

Revisional Differences

In the Remix 5 version, the sprite for Aka-chan's shirt used while getting hit by the ball (as well as for squatting while performing an AB TossToss, which goes unused) was not updated to use the lowercase "a" as seen in the one used for her other sprites, and thus temporarily turns it into an uppercase "A" instead. This was fixed in the REV1 version of the game, but not in the arcade version. Also in Remix 5, Ao-kun's pants have an extra blue pixel outside the outline, which was removed in the the arcade version.

Miscellaneous

In Toss Boys, there are two yellow pixels between the button platforms Aka-chan and Ao-kun are standing on, implying the background was intended to be yellow.
