Rhythm Heaven Reanimated: Karate Man/ リズム天国: カラテ家

To celebrate the 15th Anniversary of the Rhythm Tengoku Series (Rhythm Heaven, Rhythm Paradise, Rhythm World), several animators and illustrators have come together to reanimate the series’ first rhythm game, “Karateka” also known as Karate Man, Karate Killo, & The Fighter in other countries.
Since we basically tackled every other mini-game in the previous Rhythm Heaven Reanimated Project, we decided to go for a smaller and more focused video, but still put in a couple surprises here and there for those who are fans of the series.
Whether you Tap Along or Punch Along we hope you enjoy the show!

When I saw the little gba at the end, I felt like, 'It's so small...' But I was moved because there is all the rhythm world. Thank you for making this video)
