This game features [[Karate Joe]], who practices karate by punching objects that fly from off-screen. Usually the objects come out one at a time, though occasionally the player may need to {{Nihongo|"Hit 2!"|2つ!|Futatsu!}} or {{Nihongo|"Hit 3!!"|3つ!!|Mittsu!!}}, punching multiple objects consecutively. | |||
The following objects appear and needed to be punched off-screen: | The following objects appear and needed to be punched off-screen: | ||

A gauge, reading {{Nihongo|''Nori''|ノリ|Flow}}, is located on the left in ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'' and it responds to the player's success. Unless the gauge is at three hearts or more, Karate Joe cannot punch rocks or bombs; attempting to do so results in Karate Joe hurting his hand, as he does not have enough power to punch them. The background is a featureless yellow plain, which adds darker stripes when the gauge is high enough. | |||
In ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'', the game is altered for consistency with [[Karate Man (Wii)|later versions]], most notably the removal of the gauge entirely. The background as a result simply changes to the stripes and back at pre-determined points in the song. The "Hit 3!" indication is given a voice clip in additional to the visual cue, and the one "Hit 2!" present in the game was given an extra pot in front of it making it a "Hit 3!", presumably due to a lack of voice clips. The Light Bulbs and Bombs were replaced with other objects due to [[Karate Man (DS)|later]] [[Karate Man (Wii)|versions]] repurposing them. This version introduces the Cooking Pot as a new object. Outside of the Japanese version, the {{Nihongo|来る!|Kuru!|Incoming!}} indication at the end is replaced with the pre-existing {{Nihongo|Grr!|ム!|Mu!}} indication due to [[Karate Man (Wii)|later versions]] repurposing it as the "Combo!" indication. | |||

Karate Man Returns! |
More karate training! We've got an all-new song and all-new stuff to throw at you! |
Rhythm Heaven Megamix |
Karate Man Returns! (かえってきた カラテ家?, Kaettekita Karateka), also known as Karateka (カラテ家?, Karateka) in Rhythm Tengoku, is the 1st Rhythm Game of Stage 1 (1st overall) in Rhythm Tengoku and the 1st of Honeybee Tower (33rd overall) in Rhythm Heaven Megamix.
The short version, Karate Man, appears in Honeybee Land in Rhythm Heaven Megamix.
The arrange version, Karateka 2, appears in Technician in Rhythm Tengoku.
Gameplay
This game features Karate Joe, who practices karate by punching objects that fly from off-screen. Usually the objects come out one at a time, though occasionally the player may need to "Hit 2!" (2つ!?, Futatsu!) or "Hit 3!!" (3つ!!?, Mittsu!!), punching multiple objects consecutively. The following objects appear and needed to be punched off-screen:
- Pot
- Rock
- Soccer Ball
- Light Bulb ( only)
- Bomb ( only)
- Cooking Pot ( only)
A gauge, reading Nori (ノリ?, Flow), is located on the left in Rhythm Tengoku and it responds to the player's success. Unless the gauge is at three hearts or more, Karate Joe cannot punch rocks or bombs; attempting to do so results in Karate Joe hurting his hand, as he does not have enough power to punch them. The background is a featureless yellow plain, which adds darker stripes when the gauge is high enough.
In Rhythm Heaven Megamix, the game is altered for consistency with later versions, most notably the removal of the gauge entirely. The background as a result simply changes to the stripes and back at pre-determined points in the song. The "Hit 3!" indication is given a voice clip in additional to the visual cue, and the one "Hit 2!" present in the game was given an extra pot in front of it making it a "Hit 3!", presumably due to a lack of voice clips. The Light Bulbs and Bombs were replaced with other objects due to later versions repurposing them. This version introduces the Cooking Pot as a new object. Outside of the Japanese version, the 来る! (Kuru!?, Incoming!) indication at the end is replaced with the pre-existing Grr! (ム!?, Mu!) indication due to later versions repurposing it as the "Combo!" indication.

- Ⓐ/Tap: Punch
Timing Display
- Perfect!/Ace!?: Karate Joe punches the object off-screen. In Rhythm Tengoku, the gauge goes up by one. If the player punches a rock or bomb when the gauge is too low, he will hurt his fist, counting as a miss instead.
- Early!/Late!?: Karate Joe mistimes the punch, causing him to wince as the object lands on the ground just in front of him. In Rhythm Tengoku, the gauge goes down by one.
- Miss...?: Karate Joe gasps as the object flies past him. In Rhythm Tengoku, the gauge is emptied completely.
Lyrics
The song used in the game has its lyrics provided in the Rhythm Poem Collection, where it is named "Karate Rhythm".
