The Blue Birds

"All my dreams have come true! I've joined the Blue Bird Brigade! "
— Blue Bird - Rhythm Heaven

The Blue Birds (ブルーバーズ Burūbāzu) follow the commands of Captain Blue Bird in Rhythm Heaven and Rhythm Heaven Megamix's Blue Birds.

Physical Appearance

The Blue Birds are three light-green birds with long necks and beaks. They have long orange legs and webbed feet. On their head, they wear blue hats with yellow, star-like shapes on them, and on their wings, they have differently shaded blue dots.

Story

About halfway into the game Blue Birds, you can see various flashbacks above the birds' heads. These include the three of them lifting weights with their mouths, the three of them pulling a tank with Captain Blue Bird on top of it, the three of them flying an airplane, them falling with parachutes on, them climbing up rocks, and them staring at the sunset.

Upon perfecting this game, you get some backstory on these flashbacks. The first page of Blue Bird Diary asks that you may please read it in order to make sense of the flashbacks in the game.

The second page describes the events of April 17th of an unknown year. The player Blue Bird's dreams have come true, as he has finally joined the Blue Bird Brigade. On the first day, the Blue Bird does some basic training.

On April 20th of the same year, the Blue Bird says that, although it's called basic training, that it's not basic training at all! They're forced to tug a tank with their captain inside of it. The captain was yelling at the blue birds the whole time they pulled the heavy tank.

On May 2nd, the Blue Birds have to drive pedal powered planes. The blue bird points out that it's ironic they can't just fly with their own wings.

On May 10th, the bird does parachute training. The bird once again points out that it's ironic they can't use their own wings.

On May 14th, the crew of blue birds falls off of a cliff while wandering around. They had all forgotten they had their own wings, and climbed up the cliff instead of flying up. Although it was hard, the sunset made it worth it.

In the last entry on May 24th, talks about how the commander will assign the birds to a location the following day. The birds don't know where they'll be posted, but the captain keeps insisting it's somewhere fun.

More flashbacks can be seen in Blue Birds 2., although there is no follow-up on the specifics of what's going on. The birds can be seen sledding down a hill, encountering Karate Joe, fishing with a net, sleeping with sleeping bags, pecking their beaks into ice and causing a giant eruption of ice cold water, and sitting in a hot spring. Stomp Farmer can be seen in one flashback.
