Appears in

Karate Joe is the third character to appear in the Rhythm Heaven series (the first and second being Samurai Drummer and the Barista), the first to appear in a rhythm game, and one of the only characters to appear in every game since Rhythm Tengoku.

Physical Appearance

Karate Joe is characterized by his pale white skin, big nose, and balding head. He wears a black belt karate suit that matches the color of his skin. He wears no shoes. One of the Dazzles (the one with glasses) appears to find him attractive, as seen in the OK and Superb rating screens of Karate Man 2 (DS).

Rhythm Tengoku

Karate Joe first appeared in Rhythm Tengoku as its first rhythm game, Karate Man. He very soon later appears in the first remix alongside the four other games in Set 1. Much later, he reappears along with every other game in Remix 6. He appears in Karate Man 2 right after that. He makes his final appearances in the last two remixes, Remix 7 and Remix 8.

Rhythm Heaven

Karate Joe appears in many games in Rhythm Heaven. He first appears in Karate Man, notably being the last non-sequel/remix game in the game. Right after that, he reappears in set 6's remix, Remix 6. Many games later, he appears in Karate Man 2, Karate Man's sequel. He also has parts in the last three remixes, Remix 8, Remix 9, and Remix 10.

Rhythm Heaven Fever

In Rhythm Heaven Fever, the karate fighter appears in many different games as a cameo, however they are usually Easter-eggs. He first appears, as with the other games in the Rhythm Heaven series, in Karate Man. This rhythm game takes place right before the seventh remix, where he appears again. He gets parts in Remix 9 and gets a sequel minigame in Karate Man 2, which is right before the final remix, where he makes his last appearance. This makes it evident that he is the most recurring character in the Rhythm Heaven series.

He also Appears in Honeybee Remix wearing a bee hat, and Right-Hand Remix. Both appearances are based on Karate Man Returns!. In Karate Man Senior, he makes a cameo in the try again screen.
