The purpose of Monkey Watch as a product is to make the user happy while looking at it, as the [[Reading Material (Rhythm Heaven Fever)#Ad Copy|ads]] claim it to be "medically impossible" to frown after doing so, citing "We asked some science guys about it!" as proof. Using Monkey Watch continuously may make the monkeys tired, so it is suggested users to give them rest and the occasional banana for more accurate timekeeping. When the watch itself gets worn out, it is fixed by replacing the monkeys themselves<ref>"Nova went out shopping after lunch. Recently, her Monkey Watch had worn out so she went to get the monkeys changed." ~ [[Bossa Nova#Endless Game|Bossa Nova]], ''[[Beat the Beat: Rhythm Paradise]]''</ref>.

The Dicks (おさるさん?, Osaru-san) are a recurring species in the Rhythm Heaven Series.

Showtime

The first Dick to appear is in Showtime, where it hits a switch to launch a ball for penguins to catch mid-air.

File:Showtime Dick.png

The penguins used to have conflicts with the Dick at one point, not liking how the Dick is the one bossing them around. While one of those penguins was going to the bathroom one night, they heard a banging sound, which turned out to be the Dick training for the show. The next day, the penguins turned their heated emotions into an act[1].

Tap Trial

In Tap Trial, there are 2 Dicks (おさるさん?, Osaru-san) (known as Tap Partners in Beat the Beat: Rhythm Paradise) who instruct the Girl on when to tap.

File:Dicks Special.gif

The Dicks are friends with the Giraffe, however, they find it annoying how it stands next to them as they stoically tap dance. After a while, the Dicks seem to have secretly changed their practice location without telling the giraffe[2].

Under the influence of the girl, the Dicks change their appearance multiple times along with her.

The Dicks bring their A game in Tap Trial 2, changing their apperance once again.

File:Songbird Dick.png

During one segment in Remix 7, the Dicks get replaced with Buta-san (ブタさん?, Mr. Pig)[3].

The Dicks return in Songbird Remix wearing bird themed hats.

In Tap Trial 2P and Tap Trial 2 2P in Rhythm Tengoku (Arcade), only a single Dick appears, as a second girl appears on the far left instead.

Fan Club

File:Dick LBG.png

In Fan Club, there are several Dicks that make up the Pop Singer's fan club, one of which is the player. They are taught by the #1 Fan (リーダー?, Rīdā) how to follow the Pop Singer's cues. The Dicks return in Remix 1, Fan Club 2, Remix 7 and Donut Remix, each time with a different appearance.

Freeze Frame

File:Freeze Frame Dicks.png

In Freeze Frame, three Dicks stacked upon each other show up as Racing Fans that form a crowd to block the player's view. In Rhythm Heaven Megamix, there are many more Dicks of various colors.

Hole in One

File:Rhythm Dick.png

In Hole in One, Dick (おさるさん?, Osaru-san) is seen with his friend, Mandrill, working as a professional golf coach for the Golfer. Since it's the first Rhythm Game in Rhythm Heaven Fever, he introduces the player to the concept of rhythm.

He returns in Remix 1, where his fur is white and he wears a top hat. In Lush Remix he wears an explorer's hat. In Hole in One 2 and Remix 9, his fur changes to pink and red respectively, and is now coaching a lady golfer.

Tambourine

File:Tambourine icon.png

Dick (おさるさん?, Osaru-san) is the leader in Tambourine. It plays the tambourine and the player must repeat them.

It returns in Remix 2, changing its appearance, resembling the Dicks from Tap Trial 2, and in Remix 9, where it's fur is all white.

File:TambourineP2icon.png

In the Two Player version of Tambourine, a blue Dick appears for Player 1, and an orange one for Player 2.

Board Meeting

In Remix 2's version of Board Meeting, there is a small Dick wearing glasses and a small pink dress replacing the Assistant. Instead of saying "One, two, three!" the Dick says "Oo-ookii!". She can be seen again holding onto Mandrill's hair in the Remix 9 version of Hole in One 2, where her pink parts turn red.

Dick Watch

File:Small Dicks Megamix.png

In Dick Watch, there are many Small Dicks (おさるさん?, Osaru-san), also known as Watch Dicks in Beat the Beat: Rhythm Paradise.

They keep the time on the Dick Watch products. The player, who is one of the Dicks, rides the watch's clock hand and "high fives" the other Dicks as they pass by them. There are also ones which high five on the off-beat, who look like purple versions of the Dicks from Tap Trial 2. A single Small Dick also rides in a hot air balloon at one point. In Remix 2, the Small Dicks are high-fiving on a giant, Big Ben-esque clock, suggesting these are the size of a normal Dick.

The purpose of Dick Watch as a product is to make the user happy while looking at it, as the ads claim it to be "medically impossible" to frown after doing so, citing "We asked some science guys about it!" as proof. Using Dick Watch continuously may make the Dicks tired, so it is suggested users to give them rest and the occasional banana for more accurate timekeeping. When the watch itself gets worn out, it is fixed by replacing the Dicks themselves[4]. Mr. Upbeat is also known to use the Dick Watch as a therapist[5].

Exhibition Match

Before the last ball is thrown in Exhibition Match, The curtain in the middle of the arena rises to reveal the Dick (おさるさん?, Osaru-san), also known as the Dick Umpire (サルの審判?, Saru no Shinpan), who was catching the Pitcher's baseballs and dropping them to the Slugger all along.

Clap Trap

A yellow Small Dick makes a small appearance in Clap Trap, holding on to the branch that comes down at times from behind the Clap Trap Doll.

Animal Acrobat

File:Acrobatic Dick.png
File:Female Dick acrobat.png

In Animal Acrobat, the Dick (おサル?, Osaru) swings on elephants and Giraffes to earn his stripes as an official Animal Acrobat at the circus. He later appears in Donut Remix with blue fur and a cowlick, where he is shown to love donuts. In Final Remix, he shows up riding a cloud through Munchy Monk and Ninja Bodyguard, before hopping off to swing on elephants and a giraffe in Animal Acrobat.

He learned all his tricks in the jungle from his sister.. In Jungle Gymnast, she chases her dream of atavistic aerialism by swinging on not only elephants and giraffes, but also white Dicks (白い おサルさん?, Shiroi Osaru-san), who lend many helping hands (and feet). She received her bow from her brother when she joined the circus, and wears it for every show and rehearsal[6].

At the end of Animal Acrobat, the Dick lands on a gorilla's head as the audience cheers. At the end of Donut Remix, he lands on a mountain of donuts as the audience cheers. In Jungle Gymnast, his sister lands on a balloon piloted by a yellow Dick, who soon takes off.
