Her idle animation could be her tap dancing to the beat of the song that is playing on the background and if you turnoff the music she just sits still with cold dead gaze in her shallow but profound souless eyes
Because all of the Rhythm Heaven characters' moves are so... well, rhythmic, they're perfect for a fighting game; they already respond to input snappily by design.
The timing on her moveset should be made so that she should be best playable to a beat at a certain bpm. Perhaps her attacks get an extra sweet spot of you do so to give an incentive
I think having moves that work like a rhythm game would be way too easy to read/punish and wouldn’t allow very much room for mixups. If your opponent has literally any sense of rhythm they can know more or less exactly when you’ll attack. TL;DR if they did add any kind of rhythm game character to smash they’d probably suck
@@DannyDog27 What if there are a few different beats you can play on. e.g. you can play a quarter tone beat, a 3:2 polyrhythm, a swing rhythm, etc and all are valid for getting whatever incentive they give.
@@DannyDog27 if the rythm is determined by the player, like shulks monados, or if the special inputs have different ways of timing them, then it wouldn't be that bad. Like for the damage and knockback idea
25:36 "don't expect anything, my video content is completely unpredictable" true, came from the hangman, stuck because of conlangs, got smash rhythm heaven. the videos are good and that is what matters
I never thought of this until now, but another good character choice for a rhythm heaven rep would simply be a "Rhythm Monkey". Monkeys show up in SO MANY minigames and have plenty of moves you could pull, like tossing the golf ball, hitting the tambourine. Of course there's minigames the video mentions too you can pull moves from. Like tap trial, monkey watch, fan club, etc. Not sure if they would be able to pull off the Karate Joe moves though. Or any human proportioned character moves. Or rather, the monkeys COULD do these moves but it would look a bit off. But yeah, hmm I feel like this character idea has some legs. Monkeys are so prevalent in the franchise, even if they're more often a supporting role in minigames rather than the character you play as. It makes sense for them to be the face of Rhythm Heaven for Smash, and I'm always a fan of more funny monkeys. That said, Rhythm Girl has better alt options, and getting another girl character is even more epic than getting a funny monkey
i remember seeing a speedpaint of a fake rhythm heaven announcement, it was of the Rhythm Girl, holding a tamborine with the purple Rhythm Monkey on her arm and a Glee Club member in front of her legs. Their fake announcement called them the "Rhythm Troupe" and i think that those characters together as one fighter (like with Banjo Kazooie) would be pretty smart to do.

@@ncisfan1002 Not really. His official name according to the Rhythm Heaven Wiki is just Karate Joe's Father, but his full name is Karate Joe Senior and his game is called Karate Man Senior.
Can we just take some time to appreciate how well he timed the background footage with the music - even when it was non-essential - I was mime-playing the minigames nearly the whole video and it always lined up perfectly with what was shown on screen
As someone who doesn't even own a switch and only dabbled in DS and Fever (and forgot about the series for like a decade lol), I now fully support you and 100% hope this happens. For what it's worth, your Rhythm Heaven content got me to bust out my old DS a while ago and charge it up just to come back to Built to Scale, so as someone who absolutely did not come to your channel for Rhythm Heaven content, I really appreciate the nostalgia hit videos like this give me.
I went into this video extremely skeptical, as I find most fan-made Smash movesets to be very poorly designed. I was very pleasantly surprised. This moveset is great. The "make literally every move a reference to something" approach to moveset design is far too overused in fan-made movesets, but it _can_ work well in some cases, and Rhythm Heaven's wacky and eccentric gameplay makes Rhythm Girl's amalgamation of references feel right at home next to fighters like Wii Fit Trainer and Mr. Game & Watch. Additionally, the special moves are unique, interesting, and utilize rhythm in clever ways, while avoiding the trap of being extremely gimmicky or divergent from standard Smash design. Plus, she has three different projectiles and all of them are tricky, which means she'd probably be played as zoner, and I love me a good zoner. I think the only part I disagree on is I think neutral air and up air should be swapped. The Monkey Watch hi-five would work better as an up air, since the monkey on the second hand always slaps above its head, and I'm having trouble visualizing how Rhythm Girl would move when using it as a neutral air. The flip honestly works fine as an up air, but it would also work fine as a neutral air. Think Villager, Bowser, and Kirby.
Atypical character and franchise choice. Moves having a clear inspiration that's also intuitively what that move would be. Top notch music choice. This is a solid smash fighter concept video! It's not a big deal, but I would have liked a discussion of her classic mode route. Also, I think Uair and Nair would make more sense if they were swapped, since the monkey swings over head quickly while the flip would hit all around and be dangerous for the entire revolution. I have some hitbox ideas for it if you want to hear it.
@@computer-love @eudoxia ̊ The down smash would be two hitboxes; a vertical pill from her head to the foot of the retracted leg, and a horizontal one from her stomach to the foot of the extended leg. The vertical one would send behind her at an upwards diagonal while the horizontal one would send in the direction she's facing at a similar but slightly shallower angle. I think it would be cool if, for the up smash, she does the leg sweep right before the uppercut, which would make it possible to hit grounded opponents that aren't phasing into her without it looking janky. The leg sweep would be a simple horizontal pill that's noticeably thicker than her model, while the pow would be the same but vertically oriented. The sweep would have fixed knockback and obviously be angled to land you in the place where the punch appears. The reason I say the sweep hitbox is thicker is so she can use it to hit below the ledge, but the upwards trajectory of a typical up smash makes it not too powerful of an edgeguarding option. Forward tilt would be pretty simple, being a spherical hitbox on that cover from the club head up one third of the club's length. The rest of the club would be a sourspot, and the hands and arms would be what I call a bitterspot. the sweetspot send at an upwards diagonal with above average damage for an ftilt, but slightly below average knockback. The sourspot would send closer to horizontally out, less damage, but deal the same amount of knockback. The bitterspot would deal much less kockback than both, but deal the same damage as the sourspot. I can't think of what direction the bitterspot would logically send in, so I'll just say it sends strait up because combos and jank. Up tilt would be pretty simple in layout. A big hitbox that extends from around her forehead to a bit above the hands, lasting from right before the hands touch to right before she takes them apart. It would be almost purely anti-air, sending strait up and lacking the power needed to be a kill move. I say almost because you would probably be able to hit big guys like DK and K Rool even when they're grounded, and then combo the move into itself several times because their weight prevents them from escaping. If that seems unfair, it can be an aerial only hitbox so grounded opponents are unaffected by it. Down tilt would also have a pretty simple layout. Sweetspot on the foot, and sourspot on the leg. I really want to say that the foot could two-frame and would spike, but that would almost definitely be broken as heck. Inst'ead, it sends at normal angles and does moderate damage... *to grounded opponents*. if it hits an aerial opponent, it spikes and boy does it. I don't think it would be broken though, since it would be hard to have your foot far enough out to kill them in the bottom blast zone rather than bounce upward off the stage. For her dair, it's just a pill extending from her head to her legs. It would spike for the first couple frames, then send straight up until she hit the ground. She does the landing pose when hitting an opponent and when landing. You can act out of the move after 1 second (I hate stall and falls that don't let you do that until you're already in the blast zone), but if don't act out of it, a small hitbox that just barely covers both feet appears that once again spikes. The initial spike would have regular knockback scaling, but this new one would have fixed knockback so you always die second. Think of it as a reward for dedicating your life to the stall and fall. Theoretically, though, you could hit someone with the fixed spike and then up b out of it back to stage without dying, which would be kind of broken, make people very salty when it works on them, and be hilarious to see happen 100% of time. There is a landing hitbox, but it just trips the opponent and doesn't do much damage. the tripping might be possible to use as a kill confirm, but I think it would be fine if it wasn't useful for much else. The uair would just be a slightly faster and decently weaker version of DK's, but replace the headbutt with a hand swinging overhead. One hitboxe would be attached to and a fair bit bigger than the hand. Perhaps give it a sourspot on the arm, but It would probably be fine without one. Having the flip as the nair, the head would make the most sense as the sweetspot. It would launch away and do moderate damage for a single hit. The torso would be the sourspot, doing slightly less damage and much less knockback. The sourspot would be harder to kill with, but easier to combo into other moves. The legs would deal barely any damage, but would have an autolink angle to make it easier to get hit by the head which would be half a revolution behind. The torso and leg hitboxes would make the most sense being the pill shaped ones so they would cover the most area. You know Sephiroth's bair? Imagine that, but with a tennis racket. It would be one hitbox centered on the net of the racket with almost the strength of that sweetcpot. That might be overtuned, but it's probably not overpowered with how it doesn't have much range. She would wind up her swing to make the startup and power more believable. Fair would just be bair but much weaker and much faster. It would also be a downward swing rather than horizontal to give it more effective area. Maybe a windbox could extend from the tip that slightly pushes opponents down and/or away, but that's adding complexity where it's completely unnecessary (like I haven't done that already). Specials are special and get to have weird non-hitbox properties that I don't understand, so I'll be talking more conceptually. I also don't know much about how projectile hitboxes work, probably because most projectiles are tied to specials. I *do* know that in order for the balloons to be poppable by other players, they have to have hurtboxes that can take damage, but also need coding to not register it as being damage taken by rhythm girl. To make the side b not a bad idea to use, I'd make it so the baseball take knockback like Wii Fit Trainer's side b, but make it so Rhythm Girl can move as soon as the monkey catches the ball. This would allow Rhythm girl to run to where the monkey will throw the ball, and hit it with any of her moves. This would give it crazy versatility and mixup potential, as she can hit it in several different directions and at varrying speeds, leading to many potential trajectories to use to your advantage. Since the opponent can also hit it if they have good timing and it can be blocked by stages and platforms, it shouldn't be versatile to the point of being a "solves all your problems" type move. I think it would be pretty funny if not hitting it allowed it to function as a gimping tool, especially with how insanely telegraphed it would be. What if the umbrella allowed other players to recover with you via some demonic windbox that somehow deals damage? Even worse! What if it's a normal hitbox that deals knockback without putting you in hitstun? The thought terrifies me. I don't know enough about crop stomp to say what the different turnips' properties would be or if they would have such, so I'll just say it's a reskin of peach's down b. Sorry. I know nothing about how final smash hitboxes work, to the point that I don't know if they even use the same hitbox types and formatting as the rest of the game, and this one specifically is conceptually simple so there's not much for me to say on it. I was very much ready for bed when I wrote this, so sorry if it was rambly/incoherent.
Then what would the overall archetype of Rhythm Girl be? Would she be some close range fighter that could trap (I am thinking especially about Built to Scale for ledgetrapping and catching landings, Crop Stomp as a hard punish, etc)? Would she be the Rhythm Heaven version of Ness (average stats, good aerials, a good yet predictable and punishable Up B, side B that are smashes, references to the entirety of his/her series and not just her because he/she has very little attacks of his/her own, references as detailed to their series as much as Smash Bros. Ultimate can spare)? Would she play like Zelda (strong, identical back air and forwards air, a neutral B/down Bthat controls space based on timing and has different attacking properties based on how quickly you get Neutral B/down B out)?
@@iantaakalla8180 To me, she sounds like a brawler nightmare with a few powerful trapping and zoning tools. She has a decent offstage presence, ledge trapping, aerial, anti aerial and combo game, and has several ways to get you to high percent and no shortage of ways to kill you once she gets you there. In other words, a very good character (on paper anyways). She does have an exploitable recovery, but that's only a problem if you get hit or go too deep for the offstage plays.
Spirit ideas: -monkey watch (fight a swarm of tiny diddy kongs on umbra clock tower) -rhythm wrestler (incineroar with the fatal frame assist trophy) -munchy monk (mii brawler with a lot of food spawns on spirit tracks) -the goat from that pachinko mini game in megamix (villager and isabelle just spam turnip moves) Win screen animations: 1. Barista comes by and rhythm girl gives her a pet 2. Rhythm girl, the tap monkeys and the giraffe do their tap routine 3. Rhythm girl hits a light bulb, then punch-kicks a barrel with a bomb in it (the bomb explodes in the background)
@@Melecie yoooo cheer readers would be perfect. I havent touched spirits in a long while so I guess i forgot about the RH spirits that are already in lol
I love this. so much. Only things i'd change are to give her a paper-mario style 'sweetspot' on her normal/grab attacks; all of them are multi attack anyway so they should do more damage if you hit the attack button on beat with the animation (or if you release the attack button on the final beat) Maybe for extra spice her animations for those attacks could match the BPM of the background music - only if hazards are on of course since it changes her frame-data. Also maaaybe the monkey on side-b should be a mixup; have her launch a fast-ball projectile on tap, or you can hold to charge it; passing the ball to the monkey while taking out a bat - the monkey soft-balls it back to rhythm girl on release with it reaching a sweet-spot range after the same amount of time as he charge was held (max 1 second or 2 beats)
here's an idea: maybe instead of using just the karate man song from tengoku, there could be a karate medley, containing karate man tempo up from the arcade, struck by the rain, and lonely storm, with some snippets from the megamix version.
I love the ideas, but I'm just really impressed to the effort you put in to sync the clean audio up with the original gameplay footage, in addition to the transition between final remixes! Great stuff.
It would be fitting if they made a rhythm heaven character the last DLC character added, as rhythm heaven games are well known for being late releases on their consoles.
A channel who’s main gimmick is conlangs but does whatever they want, but is centered around music they produce, memes, Rhythm Heaven and deep dives into more interesting facts about topic not analyzed much int mainstream culture (thus the hangman and 48 regular polyhedral videos). But no matter what, it will have a black background and professional Times New Roman font.
i wish i could put the whole Rhythm Heaven OST in Smash... u_u .. *u n l e s s* -jan Misali, prior to literally nominating two final remix tracks for inclusion
Everyone here is like "Wow! A channel for conlangs AND rhythm heaven? This caters to my extremely niche interests!" even though I am only interested in one of those things
It’s honestly just really refreshing watching your channel, man. You kind of have topics but really it feels like your channel just represents you, not some niche you fell into and had to fill but just who you are. I don’t know you, I don’t know who you are. But this channel makes me feel like I do, and that’s a far cry from all the trending page millionaire vlogs and overproduced Minecraft channels. Thanks so much for being like this, Misali. As a fan chaser myself I know sometimes I feel inadequate because I don’t have as many likes or followers or w/e as someone else does. I hope you never feel that way, your channel is more valuable than a hundred ten-million-sub family vlog channels. I just want you to know that. o7
This is wonderful!!!!! Such a thorough idea for good representation of a very beloved franchise! I couldn’t stop wishing this was real every second of the video
Never played Rhythm Heaven, don’t know anything about it (other than Let The Bodies Built To Scale), couldn’t care less about the game. But man... I’ve watched 26 minutes in pure amazement! Hats off, jan Misali!
*yes* I love Ultimate and all, but to me Smash will never feel complete without a Rhythm Heaven fighter, too bad it's as you say and it most likely won't be DLC (hope we're wrong in this one). This video sounds like a dream -of our generation- to me.
No joke, this video is what got me into Rhythm Heaven. After watching this my recommended was flooded with RH videos so I impulse bought Megamix on the eShop. Now it’s one of my favorite Nintendo series. thank you for introducing me to this amazing series!
I swear, the part where you are going over the new music arrangements is so well done, inserting "I suppose" to line with it's appearance in the song was pretty clever. Don't get me started on the seamless transition between the Flockstep part of Remix 10 to Final Remix, that was PERFECT!
would the songs have the sound effects from the games? listening through them all i felt like they were all missing stuff, but some of the sound effects could understandably be distracting in background music. maybe new, more subtle but still kinda punchy instruments could play the sounds the player usually inputs? i guess that would technically make every song a bit of a new arrangement but i'd assume it'd be fairly simple
I really love all the miscellaneous content you put out -- a lot of it is stuff I'm not into myself, but your enthusiasm for it is so infectious! As somebody with my own wide and unrelated collection of intense interests, I can't help but enjoy your passion. Also somebody should make her in Mugen or something
Oh my god, the amount of sheer joy I got from watching this video. I love this idea so much (also that transition at 24:00 between Both Flock Steps? Very good 👌)
Apart from how godlike this video is as-is and how faithful it is to the entire Rhythm Heaven franchise while being diverse in its references, the "speaking of idles/idols" transition at 8:41 was genius and sent me into a laughing fit
This video rules massively, so much in-depth knowledge/research, engaging commentary, and it's so nice to find someone who loves the Rhythm Heaven franchise as much as I do!
Not having even heard of this series until seeing the videos on this channel, I'll say that when you played "Dreams of Our Generation" here, some part of me kept wanting to hear "Votgil".
What a pleasant surprise of a topic! and a very solid concept for a character to boot! I think the only move i think might need a change is Built to Scale, since standing around and pressing B five times for a single projectile might be not that good to use, even in terms of casual play. Maybe instead it could summon one of the squares to roll forwards to the B-press beat, with that fifth press being the rod hitting the square to deal a lot more powerful of a hit?
Just want to comment again saying that this is honestly one of my favorite video essays at the moment its such a good analysis and I love how passionately and how well put together this is. Thanks for this and I hope for more in depth rhythm heaven essay content soon.
There's one crucial aspect of a Smash character that's been overlooked here: Their Boxing Ring titles! I have a few that I think would be nice: Rhythm Girl 1: Battle Dancer/Dance Battler Pop Star: Song of Your Doom (I was considering Ideal Idol, but that's a bit cheesy) Reporter: Intrepid Reporter Cosmic Girl: Out of Deep Space Pitcher: Fireballer Radio Operator: Starship Director Scientist: Finding a Formula for Victory Rhythm Girl 2: Tap Diva
I like when it auto plays from a complicated breakdown on naming bases that doesn’t associate them with decimal to a smash character speculation/hope talk
Also can I just say that your video essay's are probably the biggest to the way I write my college essays. Even with 100k subs you are criminally underrated
This video makes me sad, not because Rhythm Girl didn't make it into Ultimate, but because even when a Rhythm Heaven rep DOES make it into a future Smash game (which I think is at least plausible) it won't have as much love and attention put into it as this.
i click on a video in my reccomended "oh hey rhythm heaven! that makes sense ive been watching a bunch of that lately" watches it recognizes the intro "...OH YEAH!!!! this is the guy who's on my weird niche math and physics playlist who got me to join the polyhedra discord thing! huh, damn."
Man, i forgot just how much I love rhythm heaven and it's songs!!! Tap trial girl is one of my favorite RH Characters, so I was geeking out the whole time!!! Awesome video, and have a splendid day!!
I'll accept this moveset only if you can dodge Ringside by pushing the taunt button to the same timing cue as in the minigame Edit: forgot to say screw you, Micro-Row rules, in a perfect world it would get its own new arrangement, screw you again, subscribed

I never thought of this until now, but another good character choice for a rhythm heaven rep would simply be a "Rhythm Monkey". Monkeys show up in SO MANY minigames and have plenty of moves you could pull, like tossing the golf ball, hitting the tambourine. Of course there's minigames the video mentions too you can pull moves from. Like tap trial, monkey watch, fan club, etc.
Not sure if they would be able to pull off the Karate Joe moves though. Or any human proportioned character moves. Or rather, the monkeys COULD do these moves but it would look a bit off.
But yeah, hmm I feel like this character idea has some legs.

This is the second time I have said, "Hey, there's someone in the credits with the same name as me! Oh, right."
I finally get why jan misali posted that one video about letting the bodies built to scale
8:29 I think it was implied but she should totally match the cadence of her bounces to the tempo of the stage music playing
Princess cadance
Can we just take some time to appreciate how well he timed the background footage with the music - even when it was non-essential - I was mime-playing the minigames nearly the whole video and it always lined up perfectly with what was shown on screen
As someone who doesn't even own a switch and only dabbled in DS and Fever (and forgot about the series for like a decade lol), I now fully support you and 100% hope this happens. For what it's worth, your Rhythm Heaven content got me to bust out my old DS a while ago and charge it up just to come back to Built to Scale, so as someone who absolutely did not come to your channel for Rhythm Heaven content, I really appreciate the nostalgia hit videos like this give me.
I went into this video extremely skeptical, as I find most fan-made Smash movesets to be very poorly designed. I was very pleasantly surprised. This moveset is great.
The "make literally every move a reference to something" approach to moveset design is far too overused in fan-made movesets, but it _can_ work well in some cases, and Rhythm Heaven's wacky and eccentric gameplay makes Rhythm Girl's amalgamation of references feel right at home next to fighters like Wii Fit Trainer and Mr. Game & Watch. Additionally, the special moves are unique, interesting, and utilize rhythm in clever ways, while avoiding the trap of being extremely gimmicky or divergent from standard Smash design. Plus, she has three different projectiles and all of them are tricky, which means she'd probably be played as zoner, and I love me a good zoner.
I think the only part I disagree on is I think neutral air and up air should be swapped. The Monkey Watch hi-five would work better as an up air, since the monkey on the second hand always slaps above its head, and I'm having trouble visualizing how Rhythm Girl would move when using it as a neutral air. The flip honestly works fine as an up air, but it would also work fine as a neutral air. Think Villager, Bowser, and Kirby.
I thought the same exact thing about neutral air and up air. And I agree that this moveset slaps

Atypical character and franchise choice. Moves having a clear inspiration that's also intuitively what that move would be. Top notch music choice. This is a solid smash fighter concept video!
It's not a big deal, but I would have liked a discussion of her classic mode route. Also, I think Uair and Nair would make more sense if they were swapped, since the monkey swings over head quickly while the flip would hit all around and be dangerous for the entire revolution. I have some hitbox ideas for it if you want to hear it.
what do you mean "if you want to hear it" *hell yes we want to hear it*
@@computer-love @eudoxia ̊
The down smash would be two hitboxes; a vertical pill from her head to the foot of the retracted leg, and a horizontal one from her stomach to the foot of the extended leg. The vertical one would send behind her at an upwards diagonal while the horizontal one would send in the direction she's facing at a similar but slightly shallower angle.
I think it would be cool if, for the up smash, she does the leg sweep right before the uppercut, which would make it possible to hit grounded opponents that aren't phasing into her without it looking janky. The leg sweep would be a simple horizontal pill that's noticeably thicker than her model, while the pow would be the same but vertically oriented. The sweep would have fixed knockback and obviously be angled to land you in the place where the punch appears. The reason I say the sweep hitbox is thicker is so she can use it to hit below the ledge, but the upwards trajectory of a typical up smash makes it not too powerful of an edgeguarding option.
Forward tilt would be pretty simple, being a spherical hitbox on that cover from the club head up one third of the club's length. The rest of the club would be a sourspot, and the hands and arms would be what I call a bitterspot. the sweetspot send at an upwards diagonal with above average damage for an ftilt, but slightly below average knockback. The sourspot would send closer to horizontally out, less damage, but deal the same amount of knockback. The bitterspot would deal much less kockback than both, but deal the same damage as the sourspot. I can't think of what direction the bitterspot would logically send in, so I'll just say it sends strait up because combos and jank.
Up tilt would be pretty simple in layout. A big hitbox that extends from around her forehead to a bit above the hands, lasting from right before the hands touch to right before she takes them apart. It would be almost purely anti-air, sending strait up and lacking the power needed to be a kill move. I say almost because you would probably be able to hit big guys like DK and K Rool even when they're grounded, and then combo the move into itself several times because their weight prevents them from escaping. If that seems unfair, it can be an aerial only hitbox so grounded opponents are unaffected by it.
Down tilt would also have a pretty simple layout. Sweetspot on the foot, and sourspot on the leg. I really want to say that the foot could two-frame and would spike, but that would almost definitely be broken as heck. Inst'ead, it sends at normal angles and does moderate damage... *to grounded opponents*. if it hits an aerial opponent, it spikes and boy does it. I don't think it would be broken though, since it would be hard to have your foot far enough out to kill them in the bottom blast zone rather than bounce upward off the stage.
For her dair, it's just a pill extending from her head to her legs. It would spike for the first couple frames, then send straight up until she hit the ground. She does the landing pose when hitting an opponent and when landing. You can act out of the move after 1 second (I hate stall and falls that don't let you do that until you're already in the blast zone), but if don't act out of it, a small hitbox that just barely covers both feet appears that once again spikes. The initial spike would have regular knockback scaling, but this new one would have fixed knockback so you always die second. Think of it as a reward for dedicating your life to the stall and fall. Theoretically, though, you could hit someone with the fixed spike and then up b out of it back to stage without dying, which would be kind of broken, make people very salty when it works on them, and be hilarious to see happen 100% of time. There is a landing hitbox, but it just trips the opponent and doesn't do much damage. the tripping might be possible to use as a kill confirm, but I think it would be fine if it wasn't useful for much else.
The uair would just be a slightly faster and decently weaker version of DK's, but replace the headbutt with a hand swinging overhead. One hitboxe would be attached to and a fair bit bigger than the hand. Perhaps give it a sourspot on the arm, but It would probably be fine without one.
Having the flip as the nair, the head would make the most sense as the sweetspot. It would launch away and do moderate damage for a single hit. The torso would be the sourspot, doing slightly less damage and much less knockback. The sourspot would be harder to kill with, but easier to combo into other moves. The legs would deal barely any damage, but would have an autolink angle to make it easier to get hit by the head which would be half a revolution behind. The torso and leg hitboxes would make the most sense being the pill shaped ones so they would cover the most area.
You know Sephiroth's bair? Imagine that, but with a tennis racket. It would be one hitbox centered on the net of the racket with almost the strength of that sweetcpot. That might be overtuned, but it's probably not overpowered with how it doesn't have much range. She would wind up her swing to make the startup and power more believable.
Fair would just be bair but much weaker and much faster. It would also be a downward swing rather than horizontal to give it more effective area. Maybe a windbox could extend from the tip that slightly pushes opponents down and/or away, but that's adding complexity where it's completely unnecessary (like I haven't done that already).
Specials are special and get to have weird non-hitbox properties that I don't understand, so I'll be talking more conceptually. I also don't know much about how projectile hitboxes work, probably because most projectiles are tied to specials. I *do* know that in order for the balloons to be poppable by other players, they have to have hurtboxes that can take damage, but also need coding to not register it as being damage taken by rhythm girl.
To make the side b not a bad idea to use, I'd make it so the baseball take knockback like Wii Fit Trainer's side b, but make it so Rhythm Girl can move as soon as the monkey catches the ball. This would allow Rhythm girl to run to where the monkey will throw the ball, and hit it with any of her moves. This would give it crazy versatility and mixup potential, as she can hit it in several different directions and at varrying speeds, leading to many potential trajectories to use to your advantage. Since the opponent can also hit it if they have good timing and it can be blocked by stages and platforms, it shouldn't be versatile to the point of being a "solves all your problems" type move. I think it would be pretty funny if not hitting it allowed it to function as a gimping tool, especially with how insanely telegraphed it would be.
What if the umbrella allowed other players to recover with you via some demonic windbox that somehow deals damage? Even worse! What if it's a normal hitbox that deals knockback without putting you in hitstun? The thought terrifies me.
I don't know enough about crop stomp to say what the different turnips' properties would be or if they would have such, so I'll just say it's a reskin of peach's down b. Sorry.
I know nothing about how final smash hitboxes work, to the point that I don't know if they even use the same hitbox types and formatting as the rest of the game, and this one specifically is conceptually simple so there's not much for me to say on it.
I was very much ready for bed when I wrote this, so sorry if it was rambly/incoherent.
Then what would the overall archetype of Rhythm Girl be? Would she be some close range fighter that could trap (I am thinking especially about Built to Scale for ledgetrapping and catching landings, Crop Stomp as a hard punish, etc)? Would she be the Rhythm Heaven version of Ness (average stats, good aerials, a good yet predictable and punishable Up B, side B that are smashes, references to the entirety of his/her series and not just her because he/she has very little attacks of his/her own, references as detailed to their series as much as Smash Bros. Ultimate can spare)? Would she play like Zelda (strong, identical back air and forwards air, a neutral B/down Bthat controls space based on timing and has different attacking properties based on how quickly you get Neutral B/down B out)?
@@iantaakalla8180 To me, she sounds like a brawler nightmare with a few powerful trapping and zoning tools. She has a decent offstage presence, ledge trapping, aerial, anti aerial and combo game, and has several ways to get you to high percent and no shortage of ways to kill you once she gets you there. In other words, a very good character (on paper anyways). She does have an exploitable recovery, but that's only a problem if you get hit or go too deep for the offstage plays.
I just realized that down tilt having spiking properties is the best version of Luigi’s down taunt.
Honestly, I could watch jan Misali talk about literally anything.
Seriously. He could talk about an obscure Game And Watch with Luigi and I would- oh wait
@@therealbeanbot youre at the right channel then bc this is that
I could watch him talk about the L button for 23 minutes because Scott won't
Hearing Dreams of Our Generation in its original form was somehow unexpected but veeeeeery welcome. Soooo good.
I was so programmed by conlang critic, that I immediately thought
"is he gonna plug toki pona here?
Eee…
Ah, ok it's JP, NOT TP."
Spirit ideas:
-monkey watch (fight a swarm of tiny diddy kongs on umbra clock tower)
-rhythm wrestler (incineroar with the fatal frame assist trophy)
-munchy monk (mii brawler with a lot of food spawns on spirit tracks)
-the goat from that pachinko mini game in megamix (villager and isabelle just spam turnip moves)
Win screen animations:
1. Barista comes by and rhythm girl gives her a pet
2. Rhythm girl, the tap monkeys and the giraffe do their tap routine
3. Rhythm girl hits a light bulb, then punch-kicks a barrel with a bomb in it (the bomb explodes in the background)
i'd say cheer readers with just a full army of of robins spamming spells
also don't we already have wrestler and munchy monk as a spirit
@@Melecie yoooo cheer readers would be perfect. I havent touched spirits in a long while so I guess i forgot about the RH spirits that are already in lol
oh hell yeah some wacky non-format misalian content, let's go
"I like Chorus Kid as much as the next he/they" instantly subbed
I love this. so much.
Only things i'd change are to give her a paper-mario style 'sweetspot' on her normal/grab attacks; all of them are multi attack anyway so they should do more damage if you hit the attack button on beat with the animation (or if you release the attack button on the final beat)
Maybe for extra spice her animations for those attacks could match the BPM of the background music - only if hazards are on of course since it changes her frame-data.
Also maaaybe the monkey on side-b should be a mixup; have her launch a fast-ball projectile on tap, or you can hold to charge it; passing the ball to the monkey while taking out a bat - the monkey soft-balls it back to rhythm girl on release with it reaching a sweet-spot range after the same amount of time as he charge was held (max 1 second or 2 beats)
For the final point no, that would be very funny
"This isn't a list of my favorite rhythm heaven songs"
Can we get a list of those?
It would be very long
that would be a list of all rhythm heaven song
I didn't think I'd be interested in this video but somehow you turned me into a devout supporter for a Rhythm Heaven character in Smash lol
here's an idea:
maybe instead of using just the karate man song from tengoku, there could be a karate medley, containing karate man tempo up from the arcade, struck by the rain, and lonely storm, with some snippets from the megamix version.
I totally dig the "Go for a Perfect!" P being the series logo.
love lab rhythm girl new main
Ringside rythmn girl main-
I love the ideas, but I'm just really impressed to the effort you put in to sync the clean audio up with the original gameplay footage, in addition to the transition between final remixes! Great stuff.
It would be fitting if they made a rhythm heaven character the last DLC character added, as rhythm heaven games are well known for being late releases on their consoles.
24:02 oh my god, that trasition is so perfect
What even is this channel at this point? I love it!!
whatever he wants to post
That’s the gimmick
The greatest thing made by man.
hope that clears things up.
A channel who’s main gimmick is conlangs but does whatever they want, but is centered around music they produce, memes, Rhythm Heaven and deep dives into more interesting facts about topic not analyzed much int mainstream culture (thus the hangman and 48 regular polyhedral videos).
But no matter what, it will have a black background and professional Times New Roman font.

It’s honestly just really refreshing watching your channel, man. You kind of have topics but really it feels like your channel just represents you, not some niche you fell into and had to fill but just who you are. I don’t know you, I don’t know who you are. But this channel makes me feel like I do, and that’s a far cry from all the trending page millionaire vlogs and overproduced Minecraft channels.
Thanks so much for being like this, Misali. As a fan chaser myself I know sometimes I feel inadequate because I don’t have as many likes or followers or w/e as someone else does. I hope you never feel that way, your channel is more valuable than a hundred ten-million-sub family vlog channels. I just want you to know that. o7

*yes*
I love Ultimate and all, but to me Smash will never feel complete without a Rhythm Heaven fighter, too bad it's as you say and it most likely won't be DLC (hope we're wrong in this one). This video sounds like a dream -of our generation- to me.
No joke, this video is what got me into Rhythm Heaven. After watching this my recommended was flooded with RH videos so I impulse bought Megamix on the eShop. Now it’s one of my favorite Nintendo series. thank you for introducing me to this amazing series!
omg!!! this is such a fun concept!!! I'm very tempted to draw Rhythm Girl and her alts now
idk if i can link things on here, but! I posted doodles on my twitter @unamusedyami !

I swear, the part where you are going over the new music arrangements is so well done, inserting "I suppose" to line with it's appearance in the song was pretty clever. Don't get me started on the seamless transition between the Flockstep part of Remix 10 to Final Remix, that was PERFECT!
I just love how Flock Step was used to transition from Remix 10 to Final Remix
*byootiful*
incredible Jan Misali content
You have no idea how happy this made me. Honestly overwhelmed with joy because I can tell you genuinely love the series
would the songs have the sound effects from the games? listening through them all i felt like they were all missing stuff, but some of the sound effects could understandably be distracting in background music. maybe new, more subtle but still kinda punchy instruments could play the sounds the player usually inputs? i guess that would technically make every song a bit of a new arrangement but i'd assume it'd be fairly simple
Ringside sounds so strange without “Wubba dubba dub, is that true?”
i love how you just post whatever you want and i'm always interested, keep doing everything you like cause it's really fun to watch

Transitioning from remix 10 to final remix during flockstep, very clean
Not having even heard of this series until seeing the videos on this channel, I'll say that when you played "Dreams of Our Generation" here, some part of me kept wanting to hear "Votgil".
I love the absolute mosh of different content this channel has.
What a pleasant surprise of a topic! and a very solid concept for a character to boot!
I think the only move i think might need a change is Built to Scale, since standing around and pressing B five times for a single projectile might be not that good to use, even in terms of casual play. Maybe instead it could summon one of the squares to roll forwards to the B-press beat, with that fifth press being the rod hitting the square to deal a lot more powerful of a hit?
Oh my gosh, that transition from remix 10 to final remix was FLAWLESS

This video makes me sad, not because Rhythm Girl didn't make it into Ultimate, but because even when a Rhythm Heaven rep DOES make it into a future Smash game (which I think is at least plausible) it won't have as much love and attention put into it as this.
