The sequel to the confusingly-named rhythm game, with more music from the Final Fantasy series.

Unused Backgrounds

Some of the background models went unused in the main game and only appeared in DLC tracks. A few, however, were not used at all.

btl013: カオス神殿：カオス戦 (Chaos Shrine: Chaos Battle)

An alternative version of the Chaos Shrine from Final Fantasy.

btl021: 森 (Forest)

A forest from Final Fantasy II.

fld061: フィールド背景 (Field Background)

A field background of the World of Balance, depicting the Phantom Forest with the Phantom Train in the distance, from Final Fantasy VI.

fld093: フィールド背景:夜 (Field Background: Night)

A night-time version of the Final Fantasy IX world map background.

fld116: ミザレオ海岸 (Misareaux Coast)

Misareaux Coast from Final Fantasy XI. The sky texture is in the wrong place, resulting in the black bar on the right-hand side of the screen.

Placeholder Character

During development, this character (known only as PLY001) would have been used if the folder for a character's models and portraits was not present. It has a full set of animations and facial expressions. This can actually be seen on the file select screen if the Game Card is put into another 3DS.

Unused Series Categories

Final Fantasy XV

The file SeriesTable.csv has an entry for Final Fantasy XV, possibly for the track Somnus which appeared in the original Theatrhythm but never made it to Curtain Call. There are also background images for display in the music list, but they are the same as the ones for the Square Enix Titles category.

Other Music

This category does not contain any music, not even DLC, but the background graphics are there.

Unused Menu Music

bgm_menu_music_001

This remixed version of Festival of the Hunt from Final Fantasy IX was used in the original game. The menu it played in was removed for Curtain Call, but the music file is still present.

Regional Differences

The extended part of the movie for the EMS track "We Have Come" was changed in the localized versions of the game.

Japan	North America/Europe

This was due to Final Fantasy Type-0's staggered worldwide release as, at the time of Curtain Call's release, Japanese gamers were already familiar with Type-0's ending but North American and European gamers were not, as the game was in the process of being localized for release in those regions. Clips of the Japanese extended part would eventually be added in the fourth title in the series, Theatrhythm Final Bar Line, alongside the International extended part.
