Seika Relay

This one is a little technical!

The information in this page comes from internal data found in the game, and cannot be seen in normal play.
The terminology used here may or may not be what the developers or localizers intended.

Fun is the universal language.

Seika Relay (青果リレー^?, Seika Rirē), also known internally as torchRelay, is an unused and unfinished Endless Game in Minna no Rhythm Tengoku. It is only accessible in the Debug Menu, placed between Clap Trap and Basket.

Gameplay

Here, a bunch of onions and cabbages must pass the torch along every two beats, or at least are supposed to. After the first grab, the vegetables start moving left infinitely to give the illusion of the camera panning over. They also loop around, as if the torch remains in the first vegetable's hands, it goes offscreen and eventually reappears later.

Trivia

The onions in this game resemble Harry Onion of the Hair Vegetables from Rhythm Tweezers, albiet only without the nose, mustauche or mouth, and with arms and legs instead.
There are also a tomato and potato design which aren't used, nor have any assembled animations.
- The background's texture also contains a city which never appears, and a "ROUTE ♪" sign which was repurposed for Toy Car.
- There are unused animations of the vegetables preparing for a running start, and running off with the torch. Presumably the vegetables would run with the torch every so often to give the player a chance to relax, or to speed up the game like several other Endless Games, but as the game is unfinished, this never happens.
The music heard in the Practice of the game is an unused version of the practice theme which sounds like "Let's Practice!" from Rhythm Heaven. The "Practice Theme" heard in the Endless Games and Extra Games is a new version.
- The music in the actual game part on the other hand is a simple drum beat. This track is also heard in the unused standalone versions of the Endless Remix-exclusive games.
As the game is unfinished, the player cannot progress from the Practice to the real game. If they skip it, they find the real game doesn't contain anything.
- Interestingly, the player cannot progress from the practice without skipping it in Mannequin Kojo either.
If the player attempts to Quit through the Pause menu, the game will softlock. The vegetables will continue moving, but eventually stop spawning.
Like Manzai, almost all of the assets for this game were removed from the international versions of Rhythm Heaven Fever. The only remnant is the alternate version of "Let's Practice!".
