GENERAL/STORY:
When his sister Yuri was kidnapped, Ryo fought the South Town criminals and eventually managed to save her. Later he entered the first King of Fighters tournament where he had a run-in with Geese. However, when KOF was created SNK changed the timeline and placed the AOF characters at the same age as those from Fatal Fury. The actual aged Ryo can be seen in Fatal Fury: Wild Ambition and Buriki-One. In some games he is also known as "Mr. Karate" just like his father, Takuma.

REVIEW:
At first glace, he was clearly inspired by Ryu or Ken as a karate fighter, call him a rip-off if you will... When you think about it though, Ryu and Ken aren't the only "karate guys" allowed to be in a fighting game. So Ryo is a unique character in his own right... Hell, he likes to ride his motorcycle while in uniform! (Disrespectful!) Haha... He's a funny guy. 

He's had some interesting incarnations, my favorites being his Capcom VS SNK appearance, and of course his downright badass KOF XII appearance. Ohh and here's a fun fact for you, me and Ryo share the same birthday. August 2nd! Hehe.
