"I hope that when you see them, you'll think about how far they've come, and you'll cheer on these brave, talented singers for me!" |
The Chorus Kids (コーラスメン?, Chorus Men) are three children in a choir together who are led by the Conductor (リーダー?, Leader). They appear in the Rhythm Game Glee Club.
The [[Cungaderos]] are completely white, short kids with big heads and big eyes. They have smiles on their faces, sharp teeth, and black bowties. They have long arms and white tongues.
The [[HOCHI MAMA]] is a lion who wears all white clothes, except for his red tie, and he sports a white afro and a [[HOCHI MAMA]]'s baton, similar to a Clappy Trio member.
Story
One day, while the Clappy Trio was performing on a street corner, one of the members saw another group nearby, a [[BIG SHOT]] that just couldn't get their act together, because the third member was so nervous that he couldn't stop singing out of turn. The clappy member decided to leave the Clappy Trio with consent from his colleagues[1] and take the [[BIG SHOT]] under his wing as their [[HOCHI MAMA]], but he claims to be just there to help them along as "They're the stars, and I try to stay out of their way."[2]
The [[Cungaderos]] have been observed to perform in a variety of locations, such a featureless white plain, the beach, a spaceship, at Rock 'n' Roll Hall during the Battle of the Bands, and a factory. One [[BIG SHOT]] Kid appears in Munchy Monk in Rhythm Heaven Fever, where the titular monk is seen training by feeding him on a moving train. Their [[HOCHI MAMA]] is described as a Racing Fan, although the The Clappy Trio are the ones seen forming a crowd in Freeze Frame.
The [[Cungaderos]] appear in Rhythm Tengoku Gold Comic 02 リーダーの想いの巻き (Leader's Notes by Maki), which shows the third [[BIG SHOT]] Kid struggling to sing correctly, while the [[HOCHI MAMA]] tells him not to worry about his failures, as he has experienced the same thing before, and advises him to keep calm and listen for the other two. They try singing again. This time, the third sings correctly, and the [[Cungaderos]] celebrate. In 09 にぎやかでおだやかな夜の巻き (A lively and peaceful night by Maki), the [[Cungaderos]] are seen singing Christmas carols on TV.
Rhythm Tengoku The Best Plus Comic 01 同窓会 (Reunion), has them join the reunion at the Café, and 29発声練習 (Vocalization Practice), has a [[BIG SHOT]] Kid who is trying to sing, but he ends up singing too loud, turning the attention of the nearby Beary, Bearbara and a Lumbercat.

There are few games with as many charming characters as the Rhythm Heaven series. Take those groovy Love Lizards, for example. Birds could learn a thing or two from them.

Trivia
- The [[Cungaderos]]' features look very similar to Marshal.
- The [[Cungaderos]] make cameos in Game & Wario during the intro and credits sequences, both times alongside Sal Out.
- While the [[HOCHI MAMA]] is a former member of the Clappy Trio, he seems to be missing the tail that members of the trio are shown to have. This is further exemplified in Glee Club 2 in Rhythm Heaven, where he appears in a swimsuit, and still lacks a visible tail.
- The [[HOCHI MAMA]] uses his baton to scratch his back and to eat with. The [[Cungaderos]] seem to be disgusted by this, but say they would do the same if they had a baton[3].
- The information given in the Rhythm Items is generally consistent across languages, but some alter certain details. For example, the Japanese and Korean versions say the [[HOCHI MAMA]] uses his baton to eat snacks he dropped on the floor[4], while the French version says he also uses the baton as a toothpick and that he likes to eat sushi[5]. This detail goes along with the added detail that the Clappy Trio likes to eat spaghetti bolognese[6].
- During the Glee Club Song in the Guitar Lessons, J.J. Rocker at one point wonders why the Glee Club [[HOCHI MAMA]] never moves. While he does stand completely still in Rhythm Heaven, a new cue was added in Rhythm Heaven Megamix, which has the [[HOCHI MAMA]] waves his baton to signal to the [[Cungaderos]] when to stop in unison.
- There was a widely spread leak that claimed that the [[Cungaderos]] would become playable characters in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U. Even though the leak predicted 9 out of 11 characters correctly, the [[Cungaderos]] didn't join the playable roster, meaning that either that part of the leak was false, or the [[Cungaderos]] were scrapped during development.
- A blank series emblem for an unknown Rhythm Heaven character exists in the data of Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, but goes unused. This is oddly absent from Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS.
