{{Nihongo|'''Samurai Slice'''|悪霊退散|Akuryou Taisan|"Dispelling Evil Spirits"}} is the 4th [[Rhythm Game]] of the fourth stage (19th overall) in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]'' and the 3rd of [[Shop No. 5]] (105th overall), costing 10 [[Flow Ball|Flow Balls]], in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''.

 

[[File:Samurai_Slice_M_gameplay.png|thumb|200px]]In this game, the player controls the [[The Wandering Samurai|wandering samurai]]. He must slice demons who are spawning from a dark portal, in order to save the lost pinwheel of a child. These Evil spirits will appear and the player must slice them with their sword at the correct time to vanquish them, by pressing the A button. Occasionally, a vortex of demons will swarm at once and the player has to perform a whirlwind slice, which will make the samurai thrash his sword rapidly.

 

You use the normal slice for the red demons, but the green ones come out faster, so you have to use the whirlwind slice. The Red demons can also vary in size, but this is just a distraction. There is also a story, which covers the screen mid-game to obstruct the game's visuals.

 

Various elements during the story segment can be affected negatively if the player's timing is off. When a barely occurs, the characters and texts will tilt slightly. When a miss occurs, the characters and text tilt drastically, reaching the edges of the screen. During the evil spirit's story segment, additional spirits alongside it appear if either a barely or miss occurs.

 

At the end of the story segment during the rhythm game, the Wandering Samurai will either say ''"I will see justice done."'' or ''"Don't worry."''

 

At the end of the rhythm game, the words "To be continued..." appear. If the player slices at them four to five times, the words will be cut in half.

== Timing Display ==

*'''Perfect!/Ace!''': The samurai slices the evil spirit in two. When facing a horde of spirits, they are easily cut up by his whirlwind slice.

*'''Early!/Late!''': The samurai's blade grazes the evil spirit and it flies away. When facing a horde of spirits, the samurai cuts them up as normal but will not shout at the very end.

*'''Miss...''': The evil spirit attacks the samurai and knocks him over. When facing a horde, any missed spirits will latch onto the samurai and bite him.

*[[File:Samuraislicekorean.png|thumb]]In the Korean version of Rhythm Heaven Fever, the three characters featured in this rhythm game have their traditional Japanese clothing altered to resemble Korean traditional clothing, called "Hanbok".

**Also, in the Superb epilogue screen, the colors of the background were changed from red and yellow to blue and cyan, to cover up the Rising Sun colors.

*This is the only minigame from the [[Samurai Slice]] series that returns in ''Megamix''. The ones minigames that didn't return are [[Iai Giri]] and [[Samurai Slice (DS)|the DS/Endless version of Samurai Slice]].

*Due to the "To be continued..." line being kept, despite the sequel being unplayable, it is possible that this version of Samurai Slice is the prequel of [[Super Samurai Slice]] in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix|Megamix]]''.

*After practice, a demon holding a pinwheel appears. This will let the player know when the game is about to start.
