==Physical Appearance==
==Physical Appearance==
The squadmates are seen wearing green military outfits and green boots. Their suits cut off short, leaving a lot of their legs visible. They have black eyes, pink cheeks, and always have a smile despite the harsh training from the [[Sarge]]. The helmets they wear makes it obvious if one's not marching in sync thanks to the bright colors.<ref name="item"/> In adittion, there are no helmets for boys because only girls are allowed to enter the "Marcher".<ref>"色がキッパリしてるため、リズムがズレてる人は、目立ちます!また、マーチャには女子しか入ることができないため、男子用のヘルメットは、ありません…。男子のみなさん、あしからず。" (The colors are so bright that anyone whose rhythm is off is going to stand out! Also, there are no helmets for boys, as only girls are allowed to enter the Marcher... Sorry, boys.) ~ Rhythm Item description for [[Marching Orders]], ''Rhythm Tengoku: The Best Plus''</ref>

==Backstory==
==Backstory==
The squadmates belong to the special unit called the "Marcher". The squadmates are still inexperienced, angering the sergeant. Since following orders as a unit is important in their line of work, even when marching they give it their all. If the rhythm is off by even a little, [[Sarge]] will be furious.<ref>https://www.nintendo.co.jp/n08/brij/chara/stage01.html</ref>

Try Again: In ''Rhythm Tengoku'', (presumably) other members of the "Marcher" leave the squadmates behind while going to complete their mission. In ''Rhythm Heaven Megamix'', the squadmates are instead shown walking in the rain back to basic training.

OK: In ''Rhythm Tengoku'', the squadmates are shown on cleanup duty at the station, like the event on April 28. In ''Rhythm Heaven Megamix'', the squadmates are shown preparing for their mission.

Superb: In ''Rhythm Tengoku ''and'' Rhythm Heaven Megamix'', the squadmates are shown rescuing an alien who had crashlanded in the ocean. It is possible this mission is how [[Sarge]] got asscociated with the [[Alien Bunnies]].

It is unknown when [[Marcher Tempo Up!|Marcher]] [[File:TempoUpExtra3.png|72px]], where the squadmates are training for a lost dog rescue mission, takes place in relation to these events. It is also unclear if the squadmates featured there are the same ones as in [[Marching Orders]].

==Purpose==
[[Marching Orders]] is the first game in ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'' to use the B button. It's also the first keep-the-beat game, which helps the player learn how to keep a beat with the A button for long periods of time.

==Trivia==
*In ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'', the sprite of the squadmate's head when facing forward is separated into the helmet and the head. The head has red hair identical to what is seen in the credits of the game. The rotated head sprites for the turns and all the sprites in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'' are a single sprite, however.
**In ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix|Rhythm Heaven&nbsp;Megamix]]'', however, they are shown to have long hair. The reason for this change is unknown, although a piece of ''Rhythm Tengoku'' fanart published in 2008 by Ryo Hirao features interpretations of the Squadmates with similar hairstyles.<ref>https://www.pixiv.net/artworks/866954</ref>
*In ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]'', the [[Shoot-'Em-Up Radio Lady]] is dressed like a squadmate during [[Shoot-'Em-Up 2 (DS)|Shoot-'Em-Up 2]].

==Trivia==
*In ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'' and [[Marcher Tempo Up!|Marcher]] [[File:TempoUpExtra3.png|72px]], the sprite of the squadmate's head when facing forward is separated into the helmet and the head. The head in the former has red hair identical to what is seen in the credits of the game, while the latter has nondescript orange hair. The rotated head sprites for the turns and all the sprites in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'' are a single sprite, however.
*Although the squadmates are clearly female in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'', their voices and sprites in ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'' imply they are intended to be male. The [[Marcher Tempo Up!|Marcher]] [[File:TempoUpExtra3.png|72px]] version however features typically feminine traits, such as a high pitched voice, pink clothes, and a flower on the helmet.
**In ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'', however, they are shown to have long hair. The reason for this change is unknown, although a piece of ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'' fanart published in 2008 by Ryo Hirao features interpretations of the Squadmates with similar hairstyles<ref>https://www.pixiv.net/artworks/866954</ref>.
