Young Cricket (ヤングクリケット?, Yangu Kuriketto) and Master Mantis (マスターマンティス?, Masutā Mantisu) are two major characters from the WarioWare Series. They are martial artists and WarioWare, Inc. employees who like meat dumplings. Master Mantis is an elderly teacher of martial arts, while Young Cricket is his devoted student. When they are first introduced, they appear to be rather serious characters, shown training in difficult conditions, but it is later shown that they "fit in" with the rest of Wario's friends.

    Young Cricket's first appearance in the Rhythm Heaven Series is in Kung Fu Ball in Rhythm Heaven Fever as one of the kappa's students, controlled by Player 1. In the game, he must kick and punch a ball back to Cicada without dropping it, as well as using special techniques such as Heat Fu (ひー・ふー・?, Hi~ fu~) and Great Bird Claw Spike (ほいこ~ろ~?, Hoiko~ ro~), with the ultimate goal being to break the ball open. Notably, his hair is more of a gray color here rather than the usual black with white streaks. This appearance is depicted in his Character Trailer for WarioWare Gold[1], where he trains alongside Cicada under Master Mantis, with the kappa and ball being shown.

    Young Cricket and Master Mantis appear in Rhythm Heaven Megamix in the Challenge Train course Wario...Where?, with their designs from Game & Wario. Master Mantis is featured (initially without his mustache) as the playable character in Munchy Monk, replacing the titular character, where he eats dumplings to grow his mustache. Young Cricket can be seen in the background riding on a cloud, similar to the Monkey from Animal Acrobat in Final Remix.
