  • Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
  • All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
  • All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.

Audition Online (Audition, Audi or X-Beat in Japan) is a multiplayer online casual rhythm game produced by T3 Entertainment, a Korean company. The game was originally distributed in North America by Nexon, but in 2009, announced they would not be renewing their license. Since then, the game has been distributed by Red Bana.

The game has multiple modes. Choreography - C - 4 Key is easily the most popular mode, in which players must hit a certain number of arrow keys in the correct order and then press the space bar on beat.

Audition Online's North American release features music from well-known artists such as Lady Gaga, Boys Like Girls, Ke$ha and LMFAO.


Tropes used in Audition Online include:
  • Alliteration: Several NPC characters, including (but not limited to) Jack Jumpoff, Travis Trounce, Felicia Force, Rachel Raver, Billy Backstep, Sara Steppenice...
  • And Your Reward Is Clothes: Somewhat averted, as some rooms (as well as licensing matches) require the in game currency, Beats, but otherwise, clothes are the only thing you're earning them for.
  • Awesomeness Meter: The ranking for timing goes Miss, Bad, Cool, Great and Perfect. Since Perfects are had to achieve and much less common than Greats, they are worth much more points, especially if you can make a combo of them.
    • Also played with in Insane mode.
  • Blind Idiot Translation: Some of the lines in Story Mode look like they were run through Google Translate and then slapped into the game. Some of this has been fixed, but it's still quite noticeable.
  • The Chosen One: The basic premise behind Story Mode.
  • Does Not Like Men: Perna/Nana in Story Mode. The narration even describes her as "the despiser of men."
  • Forced Tutorial: At the beginning.
  • Just Like Robin Hood: The Masked Dancer in Story Mode. Your character even calls him "Diego Hood" when you first meet.
  • Magic Dance: Arguably the reason someone could take over/save Audition Town just by dancing.
  • Purple Eyes: An option in the item shop. NPC's Bobby, Felicia Force, and Perna/Nana all have them, as well.
  • Trapped in Another World: Your character in Story Mode.
