Mr. Chicken

"This chicken is a dangerous driver and gets pulled over a lot, and we mean a lot. However, he does have a very nice photo on his license."
— Play Nintendo

Mr. Chicken (ニワトリさん^?, Niwatori-san) is a chicken who rides an electric car in Charging Chicken in Rhythm Heaven Megamix.

Story

Mr. Chicken bought a convertible car from Dieter so he could take out a lady Huebird on a date. As he drove her down the stone road, he broke too late, leaving the car leaning on the edge of a cliff. He decides this a good chance to rescue the lady huebird to get her to like him. As the car falls into the water however, the huebird simply flies away.

Over three years of driving on the coastline^[1], Mr. Chicken has been pulled over several times, and each time he expects the police officer to comment on his license picture, because he thinks he looks really good in it^[2]. After 10 years of safe driving^[3], he was able to receive the gold driver's license, for which he asked to keep the same picture^[4]. Despite everything, he still drives on the dangerous coastline, as he views life as a chicken race, and finds the thrills make it more fun^[5].
