Story

Throughout Rhythm Heaven Megamix, the Rhythm items of Karate Man give us memories of Karate Joe and his father.

Karate Man (Soccer Ball)

Karate Joe's Father wanted his son to master karate instead of playing soccer, and told his son that he can't leave his house until he masters karate. Karate Joe says he still lives in the basement.

Karate Man Returns! (Cooking Pot)

Karate Joe says that his father is a master at karate, but not cooking. Sometimes he makes dinner despite this, and asks if Karate Joe likes it. Joe has to lie and say that he likes it to make him feel good.

Karate Man Senior (LED Light Bulbs)

Karate Joe says that his father has incredible vision that allows him to quickly tell the color of a light bulb and react appropriately. He envies this ability.

Karate Man Kicks! (Bomb)

Karate Joe's father got his son bombs in order to make him face his fears. At first, Karate Joe thought they were fake, but then one exploded! Karate Joe has no idea where he got them.

Karate Man Comboes! (Barrel)

Karate Joe's Father keeps a bunch of barrels around, but Karate Joe has no idea why. Joe has asked multiple times, although Karate Joe's Father has told him that he can only know when he is stronger than his father.

Purpose

Karate Joe's Father appears in the last non-bonus or non-remix game in Rhythm Heaven Megamix. He is much stronger than his son, being able to do both comboes and kicks in one session, and being able to hit double pots.
