Traveling alone to Thailand, Joe rose up the ranks to become a champion in Muay Thai Boxing. Though he has a playful and dynamic personality, Joe becomes far more serious when it comes down to training. He met Terry and Andy in South Town, and has remained good friends ever since.
Joe Higashi is a great all-around character. Joe has tools for zoning and for keeping pressure on an opponent which allows you to choose different styles of play based on the match up.
Pros
Cons
Extreme Damage: Joe has incredible damage potential. His EX moves give him solid 300-400 damage midscreen, and devastating stun combos in the corner.
Terrifying Pressure: While Joe doesn't have much in the way of mix, his safety, the speed of his buttons, and the sheer risk he puts on the opponent more than make up for it. When Joe gets an opponent to the corner, they have a very hard time getting out.
Fantastic Zoning: Hurricane Upper is a massive, fast recovering projectile that has the perks of both ground and mid fireballs. Coupled with his very large DP and amazing EX fireball which shoots THREE uppers, Joe can keep out an opponent better than the best.
Strong Confirms: Joe's buttons chain into eachother quickly, and 4B and 6B make for fantastic, easy confirms from most hits. Even if they're not standing and able to be hit by 6B, the length of 4B's hitstun and hitstop makes his confirms realistic in any situation.
Great Defense: Joe's great abare and massive DP make his defense hard to work around, especially when utilized by a keen player.
Versatility: With Joe's fantastic kit, he works well on any spot. Be it point, mid, or anchor, Joe excels as a flex pick.
Extremely Linear: Joe is a painfully straightforward character with a simple gameplan with very little variation, requiring strong fundamentals to make him shine
Lacking in mix-ups: While Joe packs a punch, he lacks cross-ups and standing overheads, relying on very basic mix-ups and a very hard to execute instant overhead.
Fireball Reliant: Joe's entire gameplan from zoning, to footsies, and to pressure, is defined by Hurricane Upper. In matchups where he cannot use it to his heart's content, he suffers greatly and misses out on many of his listed upsides.

Has two versions - Neutral jump B and jump B
Normal jump is a 4F aerial knee strike (not shown). Neutral jump B is shown and is a 6F upward kick.
Normal jump B is versatile normal as it can be an air-to-ground or air-to-air normal. Limited range.
Neutral jump B has decent range and hits upward which can make it good air-to-air normal.
Use regular jump B for approaches and quickly countering airborne opponents.
Use neutral jump B as a hop or jump reaction to aerial opponents, especially above Joe's head.

Aerial downward punch. Decent horizontal range which makes it useful as an air-to-ground normal
Does not hit downward very much and has ok speed with average active frames.
Easily can whiff on crouching opponents if pressed at the apex of a hop (even more so for a jump). Ideal timing is when joe descends to about head level.

Aerial jumping kick. Joe's best air-to-ground normal
Slower startup than jump C but has more active frames so it's easier to use when approaching opponents.
Has decent range, hitting an opponent from a full character length away.
Has poor vertical range and will easily whiff crouchers if pressed at apex of hop (even more so for jumps). Plan to press at slightly above head level.
Has more pushback than jump C so may push Joe into far normal range on hit or block if not up close.

Joe throws moving tornado at opponent
Version A tornado moves slow allows joe to run behind it to keep pressure on opponent
Version C tornado moves fast
Version AC throws three tornados that can null EX projectiles
Has insane juggle potential, allowing for multiple Hurricane Uppers to be done in a combo in the corner or potentially a juggle into Tiger Kick/Slash Kick midscreen
VERY quickly recovering and massive projectile. This move and its EX version make a mess of many characters neutral and is the most important special in your kit.

Has air attack invincibility
Version D's height is close to a jump while distance can connect with an opponent at the start of a round
Has full invincibility
Version BD's height is like version D's but distance is much further.
The speed and range of this move make getting anti-aired a certain, overbearing reality if the player has good reactions.

A flying kick that causes knock down on hit
Version B reaches slightly further than the distance between you and your opponent at the start of a round
Version D reaches much further than version B and can connect if used after landing a CD attack
VERY slow recovery. Make sure you space this well, don't just use it nonchalantly or else you will get punished.
The high profile of the kick isn't just for show, Joe will actually skate right over certain low to the ground projectiles such as Power Wave or Isla's Fill-In.

Joes throws several rapid punches.
AC version slightly move Joe forward doing the upper cut and puts opponent into juggle state.
Incredibly important in corner juggles. Knowing which version to mash out is pinnacle in ruining your opponent's day with a stun combo.

Repeatedly pressing A or C will add additional hits.
214A will have joe throw an elbow which causes a hard knock down.
214C will have joe finish with an upper-cut which will put opponent into juggle state.
623A/C on its own will perform 6 hits. It can be extended up to two times of 3 hits each/12 hits total by inputting PPP near the end of the previous extension.
214A/C can be cancelled into from any individual hit of 623A/C or its extensions on hit, block, or whiff.
214C vs a grounded opponent is a juggle starter, which leads to high damage and stun in the corner.
214C with a single mash extension is a common filler in Joe's extended corner juggles.
Doing 623P~214A as fast as possible gives Joe a long range instant overhead that grants him an autotimed 4f safejump.

A leaping heel kick. Too slow to combo from anything on the ground, restricting its use to airborne opponents.
As aerial combo filler, this move is extremely important. 214D and 214BD allow Joe to extend his juggles from 623AC (if 6B is used to chain them), giving him guaranteed followups with 41236B, 623D, and st.D.

Joe rushes forward to do a combination of Bakuretsuken, Slash Kick, Golden Heel, ending with Tiger Kick.
Great super to confirm into midscreen due to the reach and more consistent than Screw Upper due to the fact that Joe moves forward during the move.
