Monkey (Tap Trial 2)
The Monkey (SALU?, SALU) is a purple monkey with white skin, two yellow earrings, black sunglasses and red tie on his torso who first appeared in Tap Trial 2 in Rhythm Tengoku replacing the normal Monkeys.
Story
Like the other Monkeys, these ones like to tap dance. One of them is a DJ who plays at night and on the weekends, relieving the stresses of young people with his energetic selections. He also hosts a radio show as DJ SALU (DJ SALU?, DJ SALU). He conducted an interview with the RAPMEN, talking about their latest song. During the interview, the RAPMEN talked about how their snacks were stolen by the Rap Women, while DJ SALU replied in the style of their songs. At the end, he quoted the red rapper, knowing the line because he was playing Rhythm Tengoku, and cut to a commercial for the game. He seems to have a lot of life experience, as he was brash as a teenager[1].
Yellow versions of this monkey appear in Live as part of the Drum Samurai's Band, playing the trumpets and saxophone. The Monkey in Tambourine in Remix 2 is replaced with this one. The purple Small Monkeys in Monkey Watch bear a resemblance to this kind of monkey.
