"The snappy starlets called the Dazzles need a new member for their TV show. Give them a dazzling audition!"
— The Dazzles Description (Rhythm Heaven Megamix)
Template:Game-NavTemplate:Game-NavTemplate:Minigame infoboxThe Dazzles (ボックスショー Box Show) is the 14th minigame in Rhythm Heaven and the 94th minigame in Rhythm Heaven Megamix. This game is about a girl who is auditioning for the TV hit group The Dazzles. A sequel is unlocked later on in Rhythm Heaven called The Dazzles 2. "Love Ooh Ooh Paradise" is played in this game.
The playable character follows the rest of the girls in rhythm and is the supposed to be the last to crouch down in an ice-cube tray-like stage. The player holds down to the screen/a button to a 'One-two-three' cue, then jumps up in time when everyone else has jumped.
Hit: The player's Dazzle will crouch in sync with the others and the routine continues. When jumping up, the player's Dazzle with have stars emitting from her finger.
Barely: Crouching: In Megamix, the box darkens as normal, but the yellow spotlight won't appear around the player. Jumping Up: The player's Dazzle will have no stars emitting from her finger. A barely counts as a miss.
Miss: When crouching, the box does not darken, at which point the player cannot follow up with a jump, ruining the routine. Doing this or crouching out of order will prompt the other Dazzles to glare at the player's Dazzle. If the player jumps when they're not supposed to, the other Dazzles with stumble over and clutch their stomachs in embarrassment and won't continue the current routine.
Play-Yan from Rhythm Tengoku'sNight Walk can be seen hanging off one of the stars that periodically appear from jumping to the beat in sync to the music.
There are unused sprites in Rhythm Heaven's rating screens, showing the girls with pink dresses as opposed to red dresses with a white stripe. There is also an unused 3D model in the game which only contains textures of four of the girls wearing the pink dresses. Interestingly, the Pop Singer in the Rhythm Heaven version of Fan Club wears a pink dress exactly like the unused ones.
A remnant of this old design can still be seen in the OK epilogue in Rhythm Heaven, as one of the girls is wearing pink shoes as opposed to red, and on the menu icon, where the girl is wearing a pink dress.
This is one of a few games to get new designs in Rhythm Heaven Megamix. The Dazzles have been redesigned to match the appearances of the real-life singers, THE Possible. The game was also switched to a horizontal layout.
In the Try Again epilogue in Rhythm Heaven Megamix, the Dazzles are wearing different, pink training outfits instead of the light blue training outfits from Rhythm Heaven. Interestingly, they don't wear these outfits in the practice section like they did in the original version of the game.
The dazzling pose near the "Singing for you." line no longer triggers the stars in Rhythm Heaven Megamix. Yellow spotlights are also added so it will help the player follow the cues properly.
