Have you ever tried Japanese calligraphy? It requires grace, finesse, and a surprising amount of upper-body strength.

Rhythm Heaven Megamix

Template:Game-Nav Template:Game-Nav Template:Game-Nav Template:Minigame infobox Power Calligraphy (リズムお習字^?, Rhythm o Shuji) is the 21st game in Rhythm Tengoku, the 3rd Extra game unlocked with 41 Medals in Rhythm Heaven Fever and the 23rd game in Rhythm Heaven Megamix.

Gameplay

You play as a giant hand writing calligraphy with a surprising amount of strength. When the giant hand reaches enough power, press A to write. There are six different symbols to write (レ ("Re" Katakana), 、 (a Japanese comma), 力 (power), 己 (oneself), 寸 (sun, a Japanese kind of measurement), 心 (heart), and the characters つるニハ○○ムし (or つ3ニハ○○ムし in the Korean version) arranged to form a face). Near the end, the game goes faster and people come out dancing.

Controls

Button Mode

• A: Write (with power)

Simple Tap Mode

• Tap: Write (with power)

Timing Notes

• Hit: The symbol is successfully written.
• Barely: If early, the line turns out squiggled. If late, a messy spot of ink is made. If the Calligraphy People are present, they will stumble over. Either way, a sigh will be let out. A barely counts as a miss.
  • In Tengoku, a "doink" sound can be heard when this happens, but it's not in Fever or Megamix.
• Miss: If missed completely no marks are made, letting out a sigh. If the Calligraphy People are present, they will stumble over.

Rhythm o Shuji 2P

Template:Game-Nav Template:Minigame infobox Power Calligraphy also appears in the 2P mode of Rhythm Tengoku (Arcade) where it is referred to as Rhythm o Shuji 2P (リズムお習字 2P^?, Rhythm Oshuji 2P). It plays the same as the 1P version, except it has a split screen display to accommodate the second player. As a consequence of this design, there is only one column of dancers per screen, and they walk over the paper.

Trivia

• There is an unused string in Rhythm Tengoku reading "リズムお習字 ２", meaning that a Rhythm o Shuji 2/Power Calligraphy 2 was intended, but was scrapped.
• The "The End" kanji that appears in Japanese version was kept in the international version of Rhythm Heaven Megamix, unlike Rhythm Heaven Fever.
• In the Korean version, various things were changed, as seen below.
