This is the second time Nintendo has given us a mildly terrifying, faceless disco themed boss in the third world. And both of the times they show up they immediately become my favorite bosses in their respective game.
Someone said this is the auditory equivalent of a panic attack and I can kind of hear it. The pounding footsteps and blaring electric synth screams “OH MY GOSH IT’S COMING STRAIGHT FOR YOU, RUN!!!”
this song is SO exciting to me, because it's still so undeniably 100% pikmin but in a music genre that is BIZZARE to put pikmin into, yet it works so so so well
Ngl I was struggling to remember any new bosses from this game other than this one and the big doggo. I guess there's that one that covers itself in fake gold?

actually getting to fight this guy was a real treat! i’ve seen him in the trailers and i was already hyped for the fight because the long legs bosses were always pretty cool to me. then this came on. this guy consists of a lot of what i like. edm, the long legs bosses, and the fact that it stomps to the rhythm. one of my favorite bosses in the game currently.
I'll be honest, first time I fought this guy, I killed him so fast with Ice Pikmin and Spicy spray and 2 lightning shocks I never even got to the Yellow or Red phases. Damn, I missed out.
Well, in this case, Groovy Long Legs actually is the source of the music in universe, the track is Diagetic, meaning the characters in universe can hear it. If you freeze Groovy Long Legs the music stops playing. So the SFX here makes logical sense.
I still remember having just taken my ADHD meds that already raise my blood pressure, encountering this and having to put my controller down because I was shaking, not because of sensory overload but because this boss was so fun and hit me so personally (I was a BIG EDM fan as a teen) and I had to decompress from the adrenaline alone. Instant favorite EDIT: It has come to my attention that apparently someone fired into a rant over...ADHD meds? Health care? No idea, but now I kinda wish what it said. God forbid I praise a game for keeping accessibility in mind at all times. I WAS going to elaborate, but I think I'll explain in a way most 'gamers' can understand so here's a TLDR, explained like monke: Many noises and moving stuff on screen confusing as balls, me no likey. Brain hurtie. But if many noises, lights and moving things happen to music rhythm, brain no longer hurtie. Mental illness is a bitch, I just like that videogames are starting to (sometimes unintentionally) keep more of us in mind.
Look if they didn't go hard you'd be complaining it was boring and low effort, just assume the music guy is doing his job and quit being surprised every time something isn't shit
The Groovy long legs is 100% my favorite Pikmin boss now!! Also 0:57 is with out a doubt my favorite part of the song, it sounds to demented and creepy, but in a good way some how
The sheer unsettling, chaotic terror that this theme invokes, even without the giant spider-like creature slowly crushes all your dancing Pikmin bloom while you can do nothing but sit and wait until they’re knocked out of their trance, is horrifying and impressive, and I love it.
“Come on everybody, it’s getting close, getting close, we’re going to have ourselves a heck of a time tonight. Yes indeed, a HECK of a time! We’ll be singin’, we’ll be dancin’, I promise you that, and the -Song and Dance Man- Groovy Long Legs always keeps his promises!”
The red phase can be seen as a defense mechanism or a last resort as it hypnotizes all pikmin in the area and moves in a way that would allow it to kill all of them.
It's very much like DJ Music Man in Security Breach. His boss music actually gets quieter or louder depending on how far away he is from you. It's diagetic.

When I first fought it, I went at it like a normal Long Legs fight-- you know, huddle under it and spam Yellows. Yeah, you could say that I got to see all three phases without even trying.
The Man at Legs is really easy. Even if it starts shooting before you took cover, both the captains and pikmin, with the exception of Purples, are faster than it. Because it doesn’t lead the target, it shoots where you were. And Oatchi makes it a joke, you can literally just run circles around it, no need to take cover.
Hear me out. I’ve always thought the Pikmin series had some AMAZING music for the atmosphere of all its locations. This is the most BANGING track in the entirety of Pikmin
So my stupid ass was thinking i could whistle the pikmin out of their dancing phase because pikmin can always be called out of their problems with the whistle i thought. so when he injected his little dancing spray i just stood there still throwing pikmins. big mistake.
Should've shown up again in the Cavern of Kings. Considering I literally forgot to fight this guy originally in Serene shores (Somehow missed the cave right next to the base, thankfully went back before finishing the game), it would've been a great surprise to me and a really good final match before you make it to the real king of the cave..
The sounds between every footstep remind me of how the Raging Long Legs’s footsteps sounded in Pikmin 2, idk if that was intentional but it’s still pretty cool
this boss caught me by surprise but i also never got it in the red phase outside the piklopedia so lol still wtf it's just vibing to its own music and that's cool
I imagine pikmin dancing and getting bounced by the disco long legs but it is being bounced by the (if possible if their still around human) who was checking the commotion of the disco music and then decides to dance as well in the background and due to the fact to the pikmin and disco long legs we are the equivalent of kaiju they also get bounced around while “dancing”
Headcannon time, Unlike its long leg brethren, Groovy Long Legs is a pacifist entity that was on the wrong place at the wrong time, being born to put on a good show it does but it's not aware of its surroundings and that it can crush things accidentally. It when at its red stage were playful purpose becomes self defense. At defeat it does it last hurra as it goes out on a bang as it happy note as it knew that his purpose was fulfilled, to make someone dance and have a good time.
groovy is actually the result of lots of evolution among the arachnorb family and it's really amazing. Its got the massive head and feet of the raging long legs for optimal crushing capability, but the head isn't so big that oatchi can rush into it easily. The confusing mist makes it easier for groovy to stomp pikmin since oatchi removes what made the arachnorb family threatening in the first place; this being the fact that most beady long legs could stomp into the middle of your army and kill about 20 pikmin, only because the pikmin were all spread out. groovy is also the only arachnorb (that we know of) to have eyes, not only that, but massive ones, all around it's head, allowing it to see and chase directly towards you, something that most arachnorbs just don't have, hence why they just kinda step around mindlessly. groovy don't do that, at least in the yellow and red phase. my theory is that groovy just wants to dance, but you attacking it is quite literally throwing off its groove and it can't allow that.

DJ Music Man (FNaF: Security Breach)
Groovy Long Legs (Pikmin 4)
Hole Punch (Paper Mario: The Origami King)
Funnily enough, DJ-MM as well as GLL share two common things:
They both have spider-like characteristics and they both emmit diegetic music.
DJ Subatomic Supernova - No Straight Roads
Mirror B - Pokemon Coliseum
2 great additional disco-esque bosses
This is probably my favourite favourite Pikmin boss now not just because their music is a Bob they’re also fun to fight
I’d love to go to a concert of this legend
groovy long legs biology is pretty good and makes sense with the music
I’ve been dying to get a pikmin game for the first time and pikmin 4 was my first one and I started groovin with groovy long legs plus sounds better with SFX
Rewind is an invaluable feature
I tried stomping to the beat with my dog and she was terrified I’m not sure if it was my robotic movements or the stomping but she freaked out and once i hit the red phase she ran into her crate for safety
I love how the red phase has like the same tempo as the normal phase, but in cut time
This gives me DJ Music Man vibes in the BEST way possible.
Fun fact groovy long legs colour phases represent the blue yellow and red Pikmins
SUCH A BOPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The red phase slaps so hard
Best Boss of the Century
They call him the dubstepper…
Funny how this is just a beady long legs with the rage mechanic of the raging long legs
I wish Groovy Long Legs appeared in a night expedition
