comment |
Rhythm Thief and the Emperors Thief (Rhythm Thief R: Emperor Napoleon's Legacy in Japan) is a rhythm game unlike any other. Released in 2012 for the Nintendo 3DS, this game by Sega CS2 (Sonic Team) and xeen Inc essentially combines the exploration gameplay of the renowned Professor Layton series with Rhythm Heaven-esque minigames.The game follows the protagonist Raphael in his day-to-day life, as world-renowned art thief Phantom R. He faces off against Inspector Vergier of the Paris Constabulary, meets a mysterious man who claims to be Napoléon Bonaparte and pursues his Disappeared Dad, doing so in style the entire time.An iOS adaptation titled Rhythm Thief and the Paris Caper was launched in 2014, but its service was terminated mid-2015.Now has a Character Sheet. Please contribute and put character-specific tropes under that specific character entry. |

Anachronism Stew: At first, the plot seems to just be about stopping Napoleon, who seems to have been brought back to life, from taking over France. Then Napoleon retrieves an ancient treasure from under Paris. Which turns out to be the Hanging Gardens of Babylon. Which is a flying stone spaceship with a nuclear reactor in the center. The story is supposed to take place in the present day, but several NPC characters have very outdated names such as Urbain or Auban. |

Bilingual Bonus: Lots of them. For example, if you read the newspaper article (or what's shown on screen of it) that Phantom R holds up in the first chapter, you can read a number of amusing details, such as that some people think Phantom R might be a woman posing as a man and that he can "hypnotize people with his dance moves". |

Older Than They Look: Though they both look like teenagers, Raphael is eighteen and Marie is just one year younger than him. Exaggerated in the flashback where [[Raphael's father leaves. Even though the boy is around 15 or 16, he looks about 10. |

"Gaining Confidence" Song |
| | Rhythm Thief & the Emperor's Treasure (Video Game) / int_3f3964dd |
comment |
"Gaining Confidence" Song: Unable to figure out a way to stop the Big Bad's plan, Raphael nearly succumbs to despair, but Marie plays the "Melody of Hope" to encourage him. The song is divided into three segments, each of them reflecting the protagonist's psyche as he slowly regains his composure: The first part sounds ominous to denote his hopelessness; the second one is soothing and comforting to represent his renewed determination; and the third one is a triumphant reprise of "Moon Princess", the game's Recurring Riff. |

Conveniently Empty Building: Even when Phantom R goes to world-famous Parisian landmarks like Notre Dame, Les Invalides and the Eiffel Tower mid-day, absolutely no tourists or civilians are around to see him do things like find the Dragon Crown or a secret entrance into the catacombs or fight with the Chevaliers Diaboliques. Even when the Eiffel Tower is struck by lightning, there is no one in there other than Phantom R. |

Gameplay Grading: From E to A. Unlike most rhythm games, it's based on how much health you have left, not how many points you have, so you can have a high score and still get a shoddy grade if you mess up a few times near the end. |

Unexplained Accent: In spite of taking place in Paris, the game features an odd amalgamation of French, American, and British accents, with some characters even using multiple accents in the course of one conversation. Averted in the French dub, obviously. |

And Now for Someone Completely Different: While you'll use Raphael/Phantom R most of the time, you will occasionally control Fondue, Marie, Charlie, or Vergier. Each of them also receives a bonus chapter starring them, with Charlie and Vergier sharing one. |

Company Cross References: Several levels behave similarly to Sega's previous rhythm games. R23 and R28 use the same kinds of prompts from Space Channel 5. R23 uses the menu theme from the first game while R28's music samples from the soundtrack of Space Channel 5: Part 2. R13 and R29 use prompts from Samba de Amigo. R29 also uses music from Feel The Magic: XY/XX/Project Rub. The carousel sound in Tuileries Garden is a clip of "Merry Memory-Go-Round" from NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams (begins at about 1:45). |

comment |
Dub Name Change: Ralph becomes Raphael, Maria becomes Marie, Claude becomes Charlie, Bodouin becomes Vergier, Heinrich becomes Jean-François, Rowan becomes Alfred, Darius becomes Isaac... In summation, pretty much the whole cast. Justified for Ralph, Maria and Heinrich as their names didn't fit with the French setting; but unexplicable for Claude, whose French name was changed for an Anglo-Saxon one. Although Charlie is a unisex name and Claude is not, although females named Charlie are rare, even as a nickname. |

At first, the plot seems to just be about stopping Napoleon, who seems to have been brought back to life, from taking over France. Then Napoleon retrieves an ancient treasure from under Paris. Which turns out to be the Hanging Gardens of Babylon. Which is a flying stone spaceship with a nuclear reactor in the center. |

Shown Their Work: Sega really went all out with rendering Paris, including some little details. For example, when Raphael goes to Montmartre (which is a popular place for street artists to sell portraits and caricatures), he encounters an artist who draws his portrait and a picture of Marie. However, French gamers or people well versed in French culture can find an equal number of mistakes, such as the striking lack of non-White people among the NPCs or Raphael saying that the colours of the French flag stand for freedom, equality and brotherhood (which they don't). Not to mention Raphael's, Marie's and other main characters' names in the original Japanese version of the game are anything but French names. |
