  • Story

    The Frogettes all shake their hips to dance. The Bandleader can sing and play the saxophone. Dancing, singing, and playing instruments is how the frog family makes its money[1]. As the Bandleader sings, the lady Dancer next to him gives instructions to the Backup Dancers who are the real focus of the performance.

    The Bandleader's saxophone was lent to him by someone[2], and he accidentally dropped it into a pond[3].

    The Bandleader introduces the player to Rhythm Heaven, telling the player about flicking (using a Frogette-esque doll to practice on) and congratulating them for clearing Remix 6. The Frogettes are known to have participated in the Battle of the Bands. In Remix 7 in Rhythm Heaven Fever, a Frogette image can be seen in Cheer Readers. The Frogettes also appear in Munchy Monk in Rhythm Heaven Fever, where they can occasionally be seen out the window. A single Frogette can be seen in Rhythm Tengoku Gold Comic 01 リズムにのってはじくの巻き (Flicking to the Rhythm by Maki), playing the game alongside a girl and Note. He is having trouble with flicking, prompting the girl to give him some advice. After trying it out, he flicks successfully and is happy about it. In Rhythm Tengoku Gold Comic 09 にぎやかでおだやかな夜の巻き (A lively and peaceful night by Maki), a Frogette can be seen dancing at a club.
