Story

Ryo was not born a fighter. Though the successor to Takuma Sakazaki, Ryo struggled during his training at a young age and often struggled in sparring matches against his friend Robert. On Ryo's 10th Birthday, Ryo's mom died, and his father Takuma dissappeared shortly after. Ryo was forced to take care of his younger sister Yuri, and as such was forced to start working at a young age. Ryo began street fighting for money. At first he was unsuccessful, but eventually he became the best street fighter in South Town, gaining the attention of Mr. Big. After declining Big's invitation to join his gang, Big kidnapped Yuri. Ryo tracked down Yuri and defeated Big and Mr. Karate, who was Takuma in disguise. After reuniting with his sister and father, Ryo left to train, until he recieved an invitation to the King of Fighters tournament.

Introduction

Ryo is the purest character in the game. What you see is what you get. This doesn't necessarily help him in the game though.

Strengths Weaknesses
  • Multiple strong zoning tools, especially air fireball, complemented by good anti airs
  • Zan Retsu Ken is a powerful option on defense, for punishes, and in neutral
  • Flexible combos: one of the few characters who can link a jump-in into a sweep, and many moves cancel into Zan Retsu Ken for high damage
  • Good range on his normals
  • Bad offense: grab (his only mixup tool) is slow, easy to recover from, and throws them too far away to continue pressure on hit
  • Many punishable moves

Fast, plus on block, comically disjointed, and decently big jab. Links into itself anywhere but max range and Zan Retsu Ken at anywhere at all. Good thing to just kinda do.

Hits pretty high up above Ryo, and can be used as an anti-air in a pinch. Ryo has better anti-air options, though.

Bizarrely bad normal. Does the same damage as a lot of lights, has too much pushback to combo into specials even at point-blank, and is awful on hit/block. At the angles where it'd hit as an anti-air, Ryo has more rewarding options. Avoid.

Hits at a respectable angle for anti-airing, and is very rewarding on hit. The input makes it deceptively hard to do this on reaction, due to the extra time spent holding buttons before the move starts up.

Insanely fast for a sweep, and tied for Ryo's longest normal. Not safe on block or whiff, though, and gives pretty crummy oki midscreen. Useful as a check.

While this throw does the standard boatload of damage you'd expect from AOF2 throws, Ryo chucks his opponent to a different zip code on hit and doesn't have the frame advantage to dash back in and get airtight pressure. Suffice to say, this isn't an amazing mixup option. Unfortunately, this is his only mixup option.

At time of writing, Ryo's taunt is the only one we have frame data for, so it's unclear how the recovery stacks up to others. Taunting is still useful in neutral due to the pretty huge chunk of Spirit it steals from your opponent.

29 Mid No 24 Projectile 39 -11 -15 -

Costs 20% Spirit. Cannot be special cancelled into.

Pretty whatever fireball. The fact that you can't special cancel into it, on top of its pretty wack frame data across the board, make it not useful in close- or mid-range like shoto fireballs traditionally are. Still comes in handy as a far-range harassment tool, however, especially with Ryo's good assortment of anti-airs.

At low Spirit, the fireball will dissipate instantly without travelling anywhere, and will do 8 damage. This is, of course, terrible, and you should not attempt this special at low Spirit.

Costs 20% Spirit.

The A version is a pretty tricky neutral tool that lets Ryo smack people for attempting to anti-air him. In conjunction with his strong air normals, this can help put some extra threat behind your jumps in neutral. The B version is not nearly as useful, since the minimum height is so high up that the only thing it'll hit is other jumping opponents, and vs them, Ryo has plenty of faster and cheaper anti-airs to choose from.

At low Spirit, the fireball will dissipate instantly without travelling anywhere, and will do 6 damage. Like the ground version, this is awful.

At low Spirit, this move is replaced with Ryo's Uppercut. This Uppercut is still special cancellable, including into itself; however, since Uppercut knocks down, Ryo cannot cancel it into itself multiple times in a row for a stun setup like other characters.

"Costs 20% Spirit," though it's more like it drains 20% Spirit if you have that much. The move is completely identical at low Spirit.

Not a very helpful tool. The second hit doesn't combo properly into the third, and the third hit's pushback will sometimes make the fourth whiff. On block or whiff (and functionally on hit as well, since hitting the first half of the move means an aware opponent will block the second half), you'll eat a pretty nasty punish. It has less range than Zan Retsu Ken as well, meaning there's no point in going for it in combos usually. Due to it being identical at low Spirit, however, it can be useful as an easy way to tack on damage in situations where the first two hits are enough to kill and you don't have the Spirit to spend on Zan Retsu Ken.

Costs 25% Spirit. Cannot be special cancelled into.

Very bad move. High startup, awful on block, and unusable in combos due to the bizarre fact that you can't cancel into it. Due to how much ground Ryo's dash covers at infinitely less risk, there's not much use to this as a neutral tool.

At low Spirit, the travel speed during the active frames is cut in half, leading to the move only travelling 3/4 of the screen. In addition, the first hit does 16 damage, and the second hit won't come out at all. This is completely useless.

32 Mid No 1 77 80 hit/block, 0 whiff +38 (KD) -52 -

Costs 40% Spirit.

An amazing move for every aspect of Ryo's gameplan. Due to its breezy startup and big, disjointed hitbox, this move makes for a powerful and rewarding abare tool. These same properties also make it very useful in combos, with it linking out of lights and comboing naturally out of clHP. Its massive disjoint and high active frames make it a powerful anti-air at a lot of ranges as well, and it'll beat buttons on the ground at some spacings.

What makes this move really stand out is that it's very frustrating to whiff punish. You can't punish with fireballs, since it destroys non-super projectiles. You can't punish with sweep, since it hits crouchers and outranges sweeps. You often can't punish with a jump-in, since this move's generous hitbox means it'll often beat air attacks clean. You can't wait for it to recover, since it has no recovery. As long as they don't block it, you've got an excellent low-risk neutral option. Mind the Spirit cost, however.

At low Spirit, this move is replaced with Ryo's 5LP. This doesn't really do anything for him.

Too much startup and Spirit cost to be useful in virtually any situation. Not nearly as tall as it looks, either; every character can jump over it just fine. Does a sizable 18 damage on block and travels fast, so it can be useful for chip kills vs a low-health opponent you just knocked down.
