Rejected designs
The pop'n music series has a long history of rejected characters. Some never saw the light of day, and some would later be used many years or mixes later. For the first game, these include:
- A green man with an afro (early BAMBOO, perhaps?)
- A pink bunny, later used as PRETTY in pop'n music CS
- A pumpkin-head guy with jeans and a shirt with a dollar sign on it
- A green-skinned vampire with parted blonde hair, a black jacket, a red shirt, and jeans (early Yuli?)
- A bear with the flag of Great Britain on it
- An angry-looking Native American
- A hippie dog
- A pair of frogs (possibly early version of Anzu)
- A green donkey with a guitar
- A skateboarding snowman with green shorts
- A walking orange with clothes
- A weird-looking yellow man with black overalls and pink shoes and a red hat (face looks similar to that of TROPPIE)
- A space man in a yellow suit (early Cyber?)
- Male Japanese singer in a kimono, which was later used as 風尾課長 in ウキウキWATCHING
- Man with a T.V. for a head
- A yellow-skinned man with a blue hat covering his eyes, with a white t-shirt and green pants. Also wears a necklace with a picture of a green hand with four fingers
- An angry-looking chicken wearing glasses, blue shades, a small, tight shirt, green shorts, and multi-colored shoes
- A man in a circus-type costume with a black bandana covering his eyes (similar to the garb Mimi and Nyami wear in pop'n music 13 カーニバル)
- A red fire with a black biker shirt, a belt, and brown shoes
Also notable are various color designs for already established characters. For example, JUDY's hair was originally brown.
