==Showtime==

[[File:Showtime_Monkey.png|thumb|left|56px]]The penguins used to have conflicts with the monkey at one point, not liking how the monkey is the one bossing them around. While one of those penguins was going to the bathroom one night, they heard a banging sound, which turned out to be the monkey training for the show. The next day, the penguins turned their heated emotions into an act.<ref>https://www.nintendo.co.jp/n08/brij/chara/stage03.html</ref>

[[File:Rhythm_Monkey.png|thumb|left|48px]]In [[Hole in One]], {{Nihongo|'''Monkey'''|おさるさん|Osaru-san}} is seen with his friend, [[Mandrill]], working as a professional golf coach for the [[Golfer]].

==Board Meeting==

In [[Remix 2 (Wii)|Remix 2]]'s version of [[Board Meeting]], there is a small monkey wearing glasses and a small pink dress replacing the [[Assistant]]. Instead of saying "One, two, three!" the monkey says "Oo-ookii!". She can be seen again holding onto [[Mandrill]]'s hair in the [[Remix 9 (Wii)|Remix 9]] version of [[Hole in One 2]], where her pink parts turn red.

The purpose of Monkey Watch as a product is to make the user happy while looking at it, as the [[Reading Material (Rhythm Heaven Fever)#Ad Copy|ads]] claim it to be "medically impossible" to frown after doing so, citing "We asked some science guys about it!" as proof. Using Monkey Watch continuously may make the monkeys tired, so it is suggested users to give them rest and the occasional banana for more accurate timekeeping.

(Back to basics for Emma, with a sequence where it all began for her: in the middle of the jungle!) ~ [[Jungle Gymnast|La jungle des acrobates]] description, ''Rhythm Paradise Megamix''</ref>). In [[Jungle Gymnast]], she chases her dream of atavistic aerialism by swinging on not only elephants and giraffes, but also {{Nihongo|white monkeys|白い おサルさん|Shiroi Osaru-san}}, who lend many helping hands (and feet). She received her bow from her brother when she joined the circus, and wears it for every show and rehearsal<ref>"My brother gave me this red ribbon when I joined the circus. I wear it for every show and rehearsal. It's nice to have him looking out for me (or at least for my head)." ~ Rhythm Item description for [[Jungle Gymnast]], ''Rhythm Heaven Megamix''</ref>.
