The arrange version, Shiroi Obake 2, appears in Last Technician in Rhythm Tengoku.
Gameplay
The player controls a bow and arrow, and the goal of the game is to send the pesky ghosts back to their haunted house as they are trying to escape. The environment is blue, with a tree in the background. It is also raining. Ghosts start to peek above the wall and slowly creep towards the other wall. The player must time each arrow shot to the ghost's rhythm before they zoom to the other wall. The ghost's pace changes during the game. The ghosts can also pop up lower behind the fence, which also lowers the volume of the music.
Controls
- Ⓐ/Tap: Shoot arrow
Timing Display
- Perfect!/Ace!: The ghost is hit by the arrow and then flung through the door of the house.
- Early!/Late!: The ghost barely manages to zip past the arrow, and shudders before escaping.
- Miss...: The ghost zips through and giggles. If the arrow is shot when no ghost is passing through, it simply gets stuck in the door, and the player must wait for the ghost to pass before they can shoot again.

Your archery fundamentals needed work. The silent ghosts sneaked past you. You should have counted to yourself. |
You haven't got the basics yet. You panicked without audio cues. Don't forget to count in your head. |
 |
Eh. Good enough. | Good try. |
 |
You hit even when they were quiet. Your internal count was spot on! You did superbly against the slow ones. |
You did well without audio cues. You can count in your head well. You were excellent at slow speeds. |

 |
Eh. Passable. |

You've nailed the fundamentals. You hit even when they were quiet. You adjusted well to slow speeds. |

This bow has been in our family for generations. It's made of wood from a sacred tree and a dragon's whisker. And the dragon was left-handed! The tree was shaped like a two-headed horse! |
Skill Star

Commentary
The following is commentary given on the STAFF'S VOICE section of the booklet included in Rhythm Tengoku Zen Kyoku-shu.

| つんく♂ 初めてこのゲームをやったとき、「えっ」つって思いますよね。音楽がリット…つまりテンポが速くなったり遅くなったりするし、オバケも消えて見えなくなっちゃうし。見えてる対象に対して、攻撃を加えたりするのがゲームであって、見えなくなるなんて普通のゲームではあり得ないですよね。ファミコンの野球ゲームの「消える魔球」と同じなんですよ。そんなん、打たれへんやんって（笑）。でも、心のなかでしっかりリズムを数えていれば、見えないオバケもしっかり射られるようになるんです。しかも、矢がうまくズポーンって当たったときの快感は、ヒゲ抜きと同じですね。ホンマに気持ちよかった。 | Tsunku♂: When I played this game for the first time, I was like "Eh?" The music is bright... in other words, the tempo speeds up and slows down, and the ghosts disappear and become invisible. In a game, you are supposed to attack the target you can see, and it's impossible to become invisible in a normal game. It's the same as the "disappearing magic ball" in the Famicom Baseball game. You can't hit a ball like that (laughs). But if you count the rhythm in your mind, you will be able to shoot even invisible ghosts. Moreover, when the arrow hits the target, it feels great, just like plucking the hairs. It really felt good. |
| 小黒 オバケに矢が当たったときスローモーションになる見せ方がおもしろいですよね。マシュマロに刺さったみたいですし。 | Oguro: It is interesting how the arrow goes into slow motion when it hits the ghost. It looks as if the arrow has stuck into a marshmallow. |
| 米 このゲームも、つんく♂さんのダンスレッスンがヒントになっているんです。長い休符をはさんで、一斉にみんなでキメポーズをとるようなことをレッスンでやりましたけど、みんなの息が合って、バッチリ決まったときの気持ちよさは、一定のリズムに合わせてやるときより、気持ちよさが全然違うことに気づいたんです。そこで、このゲームの後半では、音が消えそていくようにして、音が聞こえなくても心のながで数えそれば、オバケをやっつけられる気持ちよさを表現しようとしました。僕にとって、いちばんのお気に入りのゲームです。 | Yone: This game was also inspired by Tsunku♂-san's dance lessons. In the lesson, we did a kind of "finishing pose" where everyone dances in unison with long rests in between, and I realized that the feeling when everyone's breath is in sync and the pose is perfect is totally different than when you dance to a certain rhythm. So, in the second half of the game, I tried to express the feeling of being able to defeat the ghosts by counting in your mind even if you can't hear the sound. This is my favorite game. |
Trivia
