Taiko no Tatsujin

A rhythm game made for children.
However, apparently adults took that statement as a complete lie or simply a bullshit claim (including the kids in the japanese arcades playing this game), and now both compete for the crown of who is better at reading a spam of notes and/or who could destroy the Arcade's taiko drum faster.

some guy: "hey you ever played taiko no tatsujin?" (such can be considered any version of taiko, including osu!taiko because of its different style of charting)

a rhythm game player: "yes"

some guy: "can you play the drums???"

a rhythm game player: "no you squashed package"

Taiko no Tatsujin

Taiko no Tatsujin (which means Drum Master btw) is a rhythm game based on Japanese drums called Taiko. It was released in 2004 and it was made by Namco. The game can be seen in numerous arcad es and in digital products. To some people, the game can be seen as a kid-friendly game, however, it has some dark songs and audio hidden in the code. For example, Joubutsu 2000 has some questionable lyrics and dark deep meaning. Also, the asian community has always been the gods of all of Taiko no Tatsujin since it’s release, so if you see a wild asian playing Taiko no Tatsujin, they might be the sweats of this game.

*enters into an arcade*
*sees an Asian person be a god at Taiko no Tatsujin*
*proceeds to walk away*
*walks back because of curiosity*
Person: Ur pretty good, how are u so good?
Asian person: I’ve been playing for 8 hours and I can’t feel my hands
*sees beat up hands*
Person: 😖
*walks away in disgust and fear with lots of regret*
