The title of the game (2017 expansion)!!

Super Rhythm Heaven Bros. is the third "Lawl-Style" Smash Bros. Game created by Aranryanchampion/ARC Gaming91 after "Super Smash Bros: Harmony of LOLz Rebirth" and "Super ARC Bros. Brawl". It is based on the Rhythm Heaven franchise made by Nintendo. It was announced on the 19th January of 2016 after ARC was done sending over all the "Super ARC Bros. Brawl-related stuff" (excluding the character-specific pages) over from "Universe of Smash Bros. Lawl wiki" to this wiki.

The idea for this game started when ARC wanted to include Karate Joe and the Pop Singer in "Super ARC Bros. Brawl", but that did not happen because they just kept getting pushed aside for other characters. But he still felt that he wanted to make them, so he decided to make a Lawl-style game, just for them and a whole bunch of other characters. This game would likely not have been made if a Rhythm Heaven character would make it into Smash Wii U & 3DS.

Playable Characters[]

Super-Rhythm-Heaven-Bros-(roster)

The Character-Select Screen (10/5-2017)

The character roster consists of 26 playable characters from across the Rhythm Heaven universe. Six from Rhythm Tengoku, six from Rhythm Heaven, six from Rhythm Heaven Fever and six from Rhythm Heaven: The Best +. But the game will also include two guest characters that have a connection to the Rhythm Heaven Franchise.

The characters were picked based on a combination of how iconic and recognizable they are, what unique fighting-styles and gimmicks they could bring to the table and how much ARC personally likes them.

Palette Swaps[]

All the playable characters has access to four different colors (their default and three alternates), which the player can select before starting a match. Most of these colors have connections to various characters in the Rhythm Heaven series, but there are also some that resemble characters from completely different pieces of media.

Gameplay[]

The control-scheme of "Super Rhythm Heaven Bros." is similar to the Super Smash Bros. games which every character having four special moves. But with the overall gameplay being more like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Smash-Up. The characters will have a health-bar and not a stamina counter, when a characters health-bar goes down to zero. Then the character will get launched into the background similar to the Smash Bros. games. Unlike in the actual Super Smash Bros. games, characters cannot get knocked of the stage like in the Smash Bros. games.

Each character also have “super-bar” which is split up into four sections similar to Street Fighter IV and V. The bar will fill up more and more as the character deals damage to the opponents. When the bar is full and the player does a quarter-circle forwards motion with the control-stick while pressing A and B, the character can unleash a “Final Smash” aka “Rhythm Super” to deal massive damage to one or several opponents.

Each character will also have a specific trait similar to Injustice: Gods Among Us, that can be activated by pressing L and R at the same. The trait can only be activated when the “character icon” starts flaming up which will only happen once the player has dealt and taken enough damage during the fight and can only be used once per stock. Each trait will do something different depending on the character, some will receive a boost in power while others will receive infinite access to something that was previously limited. Most of the traits will have a duration-time of eight seconds.

Non-Playable Characters[]

Assists[]

Assists are non-playable characters that can be summoned during the battle and help the character that summoned it by performing different tasks. Similar to the Assist Trophies in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U/3DS.

Link to Assist Video

How Assists are summoned[]

640px-Cloud6

The orbs that the Assist are summoned from looks identically to the orbs on the Midgar stage.

Sometimes during the fight, an orb of four different colors will appear on a random location on the stage. If a character touches the orb, then after a two-second delay, a random Assist from a specific game will show up and aid the character who summoned it. This is pretty similar to how the Summons are summoned on the Midgar stage, but it applies to all the stages. The color of the orb will determine which game the summoned Assist will originate from:

  1. Yellow = Rhythm Tengoku
  2. Blue = Rhythm Heaven
  3. Orange = Rhythm Heaven Fever
  4. Purple = Rhythm Heaven: The Best +
  5. "Warioware-Logo" = Kat & Ana (Only avalible after the "ver. 2017-update")

But which one of the Assists from that specific game that will show up is completely random every time. Sometimes, the same Assist can show up twice in a row. The Assists can be turned of in the options-menu if the players do not want them to show up.

List of Assists[]

The characters are listed in the order of which their game is unlocked in their respective game. While in the video, they are listed in a alphabetical order.

Rhythm Tengoku

Rhythm Heaven

Rhythm Heaven Fever

Rhythm Heaven: The Best +

Kat & Ana (Only avalible after the "ver. 2017-update")

Others[]

Note only appears on the menu's and tells the player what each of the modes mean and teaches them the basics of the game. Similar to the hosts in the Mario Party games.

Stages[]

There is a total of playable 12 stages in the game, three from each of the Rhythm Heaven games. Not counting the Final Boss level. The song amount on the stages is more like Super Smash Bros. for 3DS, where every stage has three songs each. Two that are there from the start and a third that gets unlocked if a total of twenty matches were played on that particular stage.

Trivia[]

General[]

  1. A pretty short tech-demo with four wire-frames figures where unlocked after the player beat "The Ultimate 100-Trial Showdown". These wire-frames has incomplete versions of the characters movesets and the stage is completely flat with the theme from "The ★ Bon Odori" playing in the background. A more polished demo with more content is said to be available on the Nintendo Eshop once the stuff in this demo has been fully completed.
  2. ARC did foreshadow the existence of this game on "Universe of Smash Bros. Lawl wiki" by creating a page for Karate Joe there, but it just flew past everyones mind like it was nothing special.
    • Several of the characters have names that originates from multiple translations of the Rhythm Heaven-games. Like Tebiri from the Japanese version, Romeo from the European version, Eglantine from the American version and so on.
    • A.R.C originally stated that there would be no "guest characters" but on the 21st of January 2017, he retracted that statement by confirming that two of the ten new characters would be guests.

Rhythm Tengoku[]

  1. Karate Joe was going to be a playable character in "Super ARC Bros. Brawl", but he did not make the cut.
  2. Karate Joe was also the Rhythm Heaven character that ARC originally put in his "Let's try to build a dream SSB4 roster together"-roster, but was later replaced with the Wrestler from Rhythm Heaven Fever thanks to feedback.
  3. The message Quiz Host received in the story narration says: "You have no Rhythm to live!" is a reference to how his game, "Quiz", never required an actual rhythm and as such is different from every other game in the Rhythm Heaven franchise.
  4. The Giraffe and the Monkeys that appear in Tap Trial Girl's moveset are grouped together as "the Tap Trial Crew" instead of individually. The reason for this could be to clear out the differences between the Giraffe in Tap Trial Girl's moveset to the one in Tebiri's moveset (if they are the same character, then the Giraffe would the first character to appear in two different movesets).
  5. Rap Women marks the first sequel-game that is playable without is original counterpart being present.
    • It was later followed by Marcher 2 and Toss Boys 2.
    • Despite that the Tengoku remixes that was brought back features the original versions of "Marcher" and "Rap Men" and not their sequels. The remixes have been slightly reworked to use the sequels of these games as the originals are not present.
      • However, all three of the missing prequels were added to the game in the "ver. 2017-update", however the changes are still the place.
  6. The Clappy Trio and its sequel; Trio on Tour, are the first and second confirmed games that are playable that have no connection to anything in this game at all.
  7. Wandering Samurai is the second character that has an unlockable Rhythm Game that comes froma different game then he does. The unlockable is Samurai Slice from Rhythm Heaven Fever, when Wandering Samurai himself originates from Samurai Slice from Rhythm Tengoku.
    • The Original version of "Samurai Slice" was brought into the game with the "ver. 2017-update" and is the only game to have a completely new name, "Original Samurai Slice". To avoid confusion with the Wii-version of the mini-game.
  8. As the first new character for ver. 2017, Mr. Upbeat was added instead of Calligraphy Folks because ARC realized that he would have to redo an entire special move for a playable character and not just a small part like with the new rep from Rhythm Heaven: The Best +.
  9. Harry Onion is the first "cameo character" that appears in two seperate movesets (Eglantine's and Stomp Farmer's).

Rhythm Heaven[]

  1. Pop Singer was going to be a playable character in "Super ARC Bros. Brawl", but she did not make the cut.
  2. Stomp Farmer's tag-line was criticized for being a little stupid. ARC did say that he was making a pun: "opponions" (a combination of opponents and onions), then in the Wrestler's moveset, ARC admitted that it was one of the weaker puns that he have made.
  3. Drummer Duel and Love Lab where games that was considered to appear as Rhythm Games, but they did not make the cut. No direct reason has been given why, but speculation proves that it is either due to time-contraints, their connection to possible future DLC characters or a combination of the two.
    • Samurai Drummer and Love Scientist were later added in the "ver. 2017-update" and these two games along with them.
  4. Pop Singers third alternate color used to be of Athena Asamiya's appearance in the King of Fighters XIII, but on 19/6-2016 it was updated to be based on her appearance in the King of Fighters XIV.
  5. Love Scientist is the first character who has its "game-of-origin" unlocked by getting a perfect on another game and not unlocked instantly by beating Story Mode as her.

Rhythm Heaven Fever[]

  1. Reporter is so far the only character that has appeared in both Super ARC Bros. Brawl and Super Rhythm Heaven Bros. She was an Assist Trophy in the former and appears as a part of Wrestler's moveset in the later.
    • She also appears as a playable character in Super Bros. Super Lawl.
  2. Marshal is the first character that has an unlockable Rhythm Game that comes from a different game then he does. The unlockable is Night Walk from Rhythm Tengoku, when Marshal himself originates from the Rhythm Test game from Fever.
    • It is also the first game where its direct sequel (Night Walk 2) does not appear, despite being referenced in Marshal's moveset. In the form of the Electric fish.
  3. MC Adore's fourth alternate color that was based on the DeviantArt character "Zoe Hirashima", was later remade by GreenPunkEmoGirl (the creator of Zoe Hirashima) to look much more polished and with a lot of added details (such as a jacket).
    • However on 10/1-2021, this alternate costume was removed from the game.
  4. Working Dough and Cheer Readers are the third and the fourth Rhythm Games that are playable that have no connection to anything else in this game.

Rhythm Heaven: The Best +[]

  1. Tebiri Mama became a new stage for "Super ARC Bros. Brawl" the day before this game was announced and it was the first stage to be fully confirmed for this game without any songs playing on it. This was likely because it was a special case.
  2. Martian's moveset originally had the highest amount of additional characters that appears in it with a total of 7, spanning three different games.
    • This record was beaten on 1/3-2016 by Tebiri, who has 9 additional characters (if you count the members of the Gatekeeper Trio separately). But he still has the most additional characters that come from one single Rhythm Heaven game.
      • However there are rumors that one of these cameo-characters will become a separate playable character, which would make Tebiri possibly the only character to receive a reworked moveset later down the line.
        • This character ended up being Eglantine who was confirmed as a playable character exactly one year after Tebiri was confirmed. She was replaced by Buruta in Tebiri's moveset.
  3. Tebiri (and also later Eglantine) is the only character to not originate from a specific game, but is rather the main character of Rhythm Heaven: The Best+'s story mode. As such, the Rhythm Game the player unlocks by clearing Story Mode with him has nothing to do with him. Though the monkey that the player originally plays as in those game, has been replaced by Tebiri.
    • Tebiri also keeps his Japanese name, despite being named "Tibby" in the international release.
  4. Despite the game being renamed: "Rhythm Heaven Megamix" for its upcoming localized release, the game will still be called by its Japanese name in this game.
  5. Similarly to Love Lab and Drummer Duel, the game; Heartbroken Bear, was also considered being added, but did not make it in. But it was added in the "ver. 2017-update", along with Beary.
  6. Rhythm Rally (Story) are currently the only game that links to the music of that game and not a video of the game itself. That is because there was no video of the game being played by itself, unlike the other Rhythm Games that are available for play.
  7. Interpreter Alien and Wild Woodworker are the only playable characters that have recieved a name-change for the "2017-era". Now they are named: Martian and Woodcutter Bear respectively.
