In [[Samurai Slice (Wii)|Samurai Slice]] and in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]'' and ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'', the evil spirits are pitch-black creatures with hand-like claws and spiky teeth who cause all kinds of mischief. They create trouble by stealing precious items, such a [[Pinwheel Girl|pinwheel]] and a [[Bunny Man|stuffed bunny]]. [[The Wandering Samurai]] once again appears to vanquish them. These demons either attack the samurai one at a time, within patterns, or in groups. Although they vary in size, with some carrying weapons, they all fall to a single slice. | In [[Samurai Slice (Wii)|Samurai Slice]] and in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]'' and ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'', the evil spirits are pitch-black creatures with hand-like claws and spiky teeth who cause all kinds of mischief.
