The Tap Trial 2 Monkey (Japanese: SALU) is a purple monkey with white skin, two yellow earrings, black sunglasses and red tie on his torso who appeared in the minigame Tap Trial 2 in Rhythm Tengoku replacing the normal monkeys.

Appearances

Trivia

This kind of monkey can sometimes be mistaken for the Offbeat Monkeys from Monkey Watch, because they have a similar appearance.
They also appeared in Concert Hall in Samurai Drummer's Band, playing on a saxophone.
The Tap Trial 2 Monkey appeared in the Tambourine segments in Remix 2, replacing a Rhythm Monkey. He also appeared in the Rhythm Heaven Fever cast, along with the monkey.
In Tengoku, the monkeys are a little taller than the normal monkeys, but in Megamix, they are noticeably smaller, just like in Tap Trial.
They are commonly referred to as MAN-K by fans, likely since SALU is a Japanese word for "monkey" or "ape".
