Rupert is a small microphone-shaped snake | Rupert is a small microphone-shaped snake sitting in a pink pot. He wears a red scarf. He listens in on people with the intent to help them by bringing them news and occasionally gossip<ref>"Oh! Hello! I am Rupert. I apologize for showing up unannounced. I'll be in and out as the game goes on... giving you news and the occasional bit of gossip. And if you get in trouble, I'll be right there, kiddo! I'm kind of a busybody, to be honest... but I just can't help trying to listen in on everyone... Er, to help them, of course! It's, ah, nice to meet you." ~ Rupert introducing himself, ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''</ref>. He enjoys meddling in people's business and is stated to dislike frogs. The shape of his lower body inside the jar is unknown, seemingly even to Rupert himself. He is able to stretch his torso to make himself taller. The player can obtain a [[Mascot]] of Rupert, which can replace the loading icon, by playing the [[Stable]] minigame. In ''[[Rhythm Tengoku: The Best+]]'', Rupert sometimes ends his sentences with {{Nihongo|ッピ|-ppi}}. | ||

Rupert doesn't play an active role in the Story Mode of ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'', but he appears throughout it, interrupting [[Tibby]] and the player to inform of them of newly unlocked features, similar to the messages that would alert the player in previous games. Rupert also takes the role of letting the player skip a [[Rhythm Game]] if they fail to clear it three times in a row, which was handled by [[Barista]] in previous games. Rupert however [[Coins|charges]] the player for it<ref>"Hey, hey, hey! Rupert's here! So how's it going with you? I ask because it kinda looked to me like maybe... you're having a little trouble with [game]? I don't do this for everyone, but lemme run this by you. You give me [X] coins, and I mark that game cleared. Eh?" ~ Rupert if the player fails to clear a [[Rhythm Game]] three times in a row, ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''</ref>. | Rupert doesn't play an active role in the Story Mode of ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'', but he appears throughout it, interrupting [[Tibby]] and the player to inform of them of newly unlocked features, similar to the messages that would alert the player in previous games.
