== Backstory == | |||
Karate Joe is a lonely martial artist who struggles with his training. He seems to be developing his own unique karate style which incorporates rhythm. He has a very emotional personality, which can be seen in his many facial expressions. At the martial arts competitions, the opponent reads all his tricks, and he can’t get results. Sometimes he goes to his master for advice, whose usual response is "You needed to focus on the basics."<ref>https://www.nintendo.co.jp/n08/brij/chara/stage01.html</ref> | Karate Joe is a lonely martial artist who struggles with his training.

===Other Appearances=== | |||
In ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'', he appears in the first [[Rhythm Game]]. It involves the Flow Gauge, which determines if he can punch hard objects such as rocks and bombs, which depends on how well the player is doing in the game. In [[Karateka 2]], he also has to contend with the ever changing tempo. In [[Remix 8 (GBA)|Remix 8]], the Flow Gauge disappears, and Karate Joe is enveloped in shadow. He can now punch rocks no matter what. At the end, he returns to normal, making a weird face. In ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'', the Flow Gauge mechanic was completely removed, the "Hit 2!", the light bulbs and bomb were replaced with other objects to conform to how the future games work. Karate Joe reappears in the [[Rhythm Tengoku (Arcade)|arcade]] version of the game, with the same appearances, in addition to [[Karateka Tempo Up!|Karateka]] [[File:TempoUpExtra1.png|72px]], which is a sped up version of the original. Here, he is wearing boxing gloves and black boxing shorts, and is training for a boxing match. | |||
Karate Joe reappears in ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]'', in the last [[Rhythm Game]] before the [[Airboarder|Credits]]. In [[Remix 6 (DS)|Remix 6]], he can be seen with hair and kicking soccer balls in place of bombs. He later makes a cameo in [[Blue Birds 2]], where he is seen in one of the memories, training while the birds spy on him from a bush. In [[Karate Man 2 (DS)|Karate Man 2]], he takes on another day of hard training. This time he's very pleased with himself, though he tries to hide it. He makes the weird face again when kicking away bombs. In the Epilogues, one of [[The Dazzles (characters)|The Dazzles]] is shown to admire him, calling him "hot stuff" and offering him a towel. In [[Battle of the Bands]], he can be seen in the audience, watching the [[Rockers (Characters)|Rockers]] perform on stage. | |||
In ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]'', he is once again in the last [[Rhythm Game]] before the [[Night Walk (Wii)|Credits]]. In [[Remix 7 (Wii)|Remix 7]], he wears black shades while punching stuff in space. At one point he lies down and watches TV, which coincidentally shows [[Karate Man Returns!|Karateka]] from ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'' itself. In [[Remix 9 (Wii)|Remix 9]] he is accompanied by a cat<ref>"cat" ~ texture filename</ref>. In [[Karate Man 2 (Wii)|Karate Man 2]], he reaches "the height of mastery" in karate, after which he is seemingly able to control fire as seen in the Superb Epilogue. In the [[Karate Man Combos!#Two Player|Two Player]] version, he wears a headband, and is accompanied by another Karate Joe in purple clothes. | |||

In ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'', he appears in [[Honeybee Remix]], where he wears a bee hat and a stinger. In the middle of the remix, several bees fly past him. At the end, the hat and stinger fly away, and he starts thinking about pancakes. He also watches in awe at his [[Father]]'s mastery in [[Karate Man Senior]]. He gives commentary on his Father's performance, the same way the Master does on Joe's training. | In ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'', he appears in [[Honeybee Remix]], where he wears a bee hat and a stinger.
