A PlayStation game released on October 31st, 1997.
The
player takes on the role of PaRappa, a paper-thin rapping dog. PaRappa is Japanese for "Paper Thin". He is trying to win the heart of a flower-like girl named Sunny Funny. He is aided by his
friends Katy Kat (an enthusiastic cat) and PJ Berri (a fat teddy bear
DJ with a huge appetite). Also vying for Sunny Funny'
s attention is PaRappa's arch rival
Joe Chin, a rich, narcissistic dog.
To impress Sunny Funny, PaRappa learns to fight at a kung-fu dojo, and takes a driver's education course to get his license. However when he crashes his
Dad's
car, he has to earn
money at a flea market to pay for it. When Sunny's birthday comes up, PaRappa has to get
cake, but ends up ruining it after an encounter with
Joe. He makes a new one by watching a cooking show, and proceeds to eat a lot of it on the day. When spending some time alone with Sunny, he is suddenly overcome with the need to go to the bathroom. PaRappa has to rap against his previous senseis in order to get to the front of the line to the toilet.
Then one night, PaRappa is invited to Club Fun, and asks Sunny to go with him, which she agrees. Parappa then raps on stage with everybody, rapping solo at the end of the song.
A really good
music game, in my opinion.
