The Pinwheel Girl (あの子?, Anoko), originally known as Pinwheel Boy in Rhythm Heaven Fever and the girl in Beat the Beat: Rhythm Paradise, alongside her unnamed sister are two young children who appear in Samurai Slice in Rhythm Heaven Fever and Rhythm Heaven Megamix.

They like to play with a pinwheel, but one day, were attacked by Demons, and had their toy snatched away. The Wandering Samurai happened upon the scene, and vowed to help them, eventually returning the stolen item.

Story

The two kids find The Wandering Samurai resting under a tree on the grounds of an old temple. Their mother asked them to offer a rice ball to the samurai, who graciously accepts it, and finds the taste similar to how his own mother used to make them. Later on, their pinwheel gets stolen by Demons, and the samurai stumbles upon the kids in distress. In the name of justice, the samurai follows the demons to a cliff, where he proceeds to slice them all until getting the pinwheel back.

Depending on the Epilogue, the kids find the samurai beaten and show concern for him (Try Again), they make jokes about him being "an OK samurai" (OK) or they celebrate having their pinwheel returned and thank the kind samurai for his deeds (Superb).
