Kokuhaku Machine (告白マシーン^?, Confession Machine) is the 3rd Rhythm Toy in Rhythm Tengoku and appears in the attract mode of Rhythm Tengoku (Arcade). It is unlocked with 15 Medals.

Gameplay

The machine is shaped like a giant heart with lights on the outsides. In the middle stands Love-san, where he gives confessions. Below the stage reads a glowing sign that says "LOVE". Similarly to the Neko Machine and Rap Machine, there are buttons on it arranged in the layout of the Game Boy Advance labeled with what they do.

The background is a dark blue color that makes the red heart contrast well. Pink heart outlines can be seen on the dark blue color.

Controls

: love/hate (スキ/キライ^?, suki/kirai) (Sometimes causes the voice to cough instead)
: but (でも^?, demo)
: why (どうしてから^?, dōshite kara)
: . (。^?, .)
: me (私ね^?, watashi)
: you (キミが^?, kimi ga)
SELECT: Return to the Omocah menu.

Video

Trivia

The music is a slower and calmer version of the Game Select music.
- A variant of this music can also be heard when reading certain letters in Rhythm Shiryō-Shitsu.

I wrote the lyrics and music myself, asked a designer girl to sing the song, and had Tsunku♂ listen to it. Then, Tsunku♂ complimented me on my song, saying, "The singer is good". I had faint hopes that they might use the song as it was, but then, after that, [[generasia:Tokito Ami|Ami Tokito]] sang it for us. Even though it was just a draft, I put a lot of energy into it (laughs).
