Play-Yan (プレイやん?, Pureiyan) is a white humanoid creature who appears in the minigame Night Walk in Rhythm Tengoku and Rhythm Heaven Megamix.

Physical Appearance

Play-Yan has features similar to that of a human and an all white body. He has a large head with two large eyes and a smile.

Backstory

He is known for his love of music, and his work is all about it. Through connections, he was able to appear in Rhythm Tengoku as well. In his private life, he likes to listen to music and taking walks while watching the night sky. He doesn't like to talk about his work too much, but he is always cheerful and has a gentle way with words.[1] The speaker of Night Walk Information happened to meet Play-Yan in the city, who promptly said "I love music!" and disappeared up some stairs. He has an impeccable sense of rhythm and Magic Flowers grow in his footsteps when the timing is right.[2][3]
