Friendly Thursday: Johannes

Johannes may not be the most harmonious shopkeeper to talk with, and you have to excuse his many puns, but he does know his music. He isn't one to become involved in things outside of the music world so it can be difficult to get to really know him, although it's been whispered that a nice hot pretzel can really change his tone.
There is one thing that will not put you in Johannes' good music books, though. If you can figure out what it is, then beware! If you can figure out what unlocks him, Johannes is a challenger that will really get you in treble.
Once you unlock Johannes, he will appear in the Secret Tab.
Unlocking Johannes is not limited to just this month like with our Throwback Challengers. While we'll continue releasing a challenger on the second Thursday, you'll have plenty of time to unlock them.

I fully expected this month's challenger to be Euclid, with his nightmare being the most adorable chibi monstrosity ever.

Dangit I don't want to fight you, I want a job in your shop!
(actually I got rid of all the pets I wanted to work in his shop lol, but it's the principle of the thing)

I tried deleting a bunch of pretzels and instruments and that didn't do it. Anyone got any hints?

You've found a Hidden Opponent!

I feel like such a monster x.x

"Is known to be very rude to customers that do not take music seriously; he has actually banned people from his store for not appreciating the instruments"
I feel like this might be the key, but I"m not sure how to go about it.
Playing with a kazoo (aka music for the non-musical) didn't work. Maybe beer, for drunk karaoke?

trying to find the Key is turning out to be A Minor inconvenience.... Bass-t of luck gang : )


I've tried eating a hot pretzel then visiting sjop.
Also tried playing with a few instruments then visiting shop.

I feel like there's some sort of hidden clue in the post itself here, but I can't decipher it. ;~;
So is this guy the Subeta version of Sans from Undertale?
Because Sans loved to make puns as well....

I thought having something like a recorder in my inventory and visiting would help...you know how everyone 'loves' the music they make...but nothing




I can't wait until I unlock him so I can battle him and get that 5th drop "lute" pun very much intended

Goodbye Virelai’s music is trash.
Bring it.
