Fatal Fury 1 (Arcade): Stage 1: Pao Pao Cafe: (Joe) Vs. Richard
10The last of the trio of this game you can use is someone who isn't even a Bogard.
Joe Higashi is a Muay Thai kickboxer from Japan. Andy Bogard met him there while he was training in his own martial arts. After a quick fight, Andy decided that Joe was worthy enough of a fighter, and invited him to the first-ever King of Fighters Tournament in South Town, USA.
At South Town, Joe would meet Andy's older brother, Terry Bogard. Together, this Fatal Fury trio would enter the tournament in a quest to avenge the Bogard Brothers' later father Jeff by hunting down the man who killed him and started this tourney: Geese Howard.
Joe here has a fiery spirit, and is eager to help out the Andy and Terry avenge their dad by killing his killer, even if it meant putting Joe at risk of getting banned from his own Muay Thai Federation for trying to commit to a kill (even if the kill is for a very evil franchisee).
----------
Joe has access to the Slash Kick, Tiger Kick, and his signature Hurricane Upper tornado projectile attack. He's also the only character in this game with a mashing special, the TNT Punch.
Now watch me use Joe to beat Richard Meyer.
