In all games in theRhythm Heaven Series, the player is given aRank (ランク^?,Ranku) depending on their performance in aRhythm Game.

Description

When the player first starts a new file and reaches the Game Select, they are presented with only oneRhythm Game to play. Upon finishing it, their performance is rated based on specific categories (depending on the game), with each carrying a comment. InRhythm Heaven Megamix, each Rank is tied to a certain score, each giving a varying amount ofCoins. The player may receive the following ranks:

Try Again

If the player did poorly, they receive theTry Again (やりなおし^?,Yarinaoshi) rank. InRhythm Heaven Megamix, this is received from 0 to 59 points. TheRhythm Game does not get cleared if this is achieved. InRhythm Heaven andRhythm Heaven Megamix, the unclearedRhythm Game has a white border around it.

If the player gets a Try Again, but does well enough in one category to trigger a Superb comment on it, the positive comment is shown, along with a blurb encouraging the player to keep trying. InRhythm Heaven Megamix, the positive comment isn't shown, instead the score fills up to 55 through 59 points, the "good parts" are acknowledged, and the player is given 5 points to roll over to OK. Simply getting 55 through 59 points does not guarantee this will happen, however.

If the player gets a Try Again three times in a row on an uncleared game, theBarista at theCafé offers to help the player by skipping it, which if accepted, gives an OK rank for that game. InRhythm Heaven Fever, theBarista also gives the player the option to watch a Demo Video, which shows what theRhythm Game in question would be like if played perfectly. InRhythm Heaven Megamix, however,Rupert instead charges the player a certain amount ofCoins to skip.

OK

If the player did good enough, they receive theOK (平凡^?,Heibon) rank. InRhythm Heaven Megamix, this is received from 60 to 79 points. TheRhythm Game is cleared if this is achieved, unlocking the next game. InRhythm Heaven andRhythm Heaven Megamix, this rank also puts a silver border around theRhythm Game. While each game has negative comments for Try Again and positive comments for Superb, there is only a selection of generic comments for OK.

If the player gets a positive comment, but did not do well enough for Superb, they receive an OK. Notably, this version of the rank has the message "Just OK" (Rhythm Heaven), "...but still just... OK" (Rhythm Heaven Fever), or "but, just... OK" (Rhythm Heaven Megamix).

Superb

If the player played really well, they receive theSuperb (ハイレベル^?,High Level) rank. InRhythm Heaven Megamix, this is received from 80 to 100 points. TheRhythm Game is cleared, the player is given aMedal, and the game is eligible for aPerfect Campaign. InRhythm Heaven andRhythm Heaven Megamix, this rank also puts a gold border around theRhythm Game. InRhythm Tengoku,Rhythm Heaven Fever andRhythm Heaven Megamix, a medal icon is also shown. InRhythm Heaven Megamix, getting a Superb on allRhythm Games is commemorated with aBadge.

Perfect

If the player manages to finish aRhythm Game without missing once during thePerfect Campaign, they receive thePerfect (パーフェクト^?,Pāfekuto) rank. The player receives agift for their achievement. InRhythm Tengoku, this rank is denoted with a pink heart with the letter "P" inside of it, separate of the Superb rank. InRhythm Heaven, this instead replaces the Superb rank, denoted with a gold border with the word "PERFECT" on it. InRhythm Heaven Fever, this is denoted with a new medal with a "P" on it, and inRhythm Heaven Megamix, the "P" Medal is used, along with a platinum border. InRhythm Heaven Megamix, getting a Perfect on allRhythm Games is commemorated with aBadge.

InRhythm Tengoku (Arcade)

Due to the arcade setting, the ranks are reworked inRhythm Tengoku (Arcade). When the player begins a Stage, they are given three hearts representing how many tries they get. Beginning aRhythm Game deducts one heart, and losing them all prompts the player to add credits to continue, or else they are returned to the menu. Getting a Superb rank rewards one heart, and locks the game as "cleared" for the rest of the Stage. ThePerfect Campaign is no longer present, however the player can achieve a Perfect rank as if in a campaign. Aside from the visuals however, it works the same as a Superb. The ranks work the same way otherwise.
