Ryo Sakazaki (リョウ・サカザキ, Ryo Sakazaki) is the main character from the fighting game series Art of Fighting. He regularly appears in The King of Fighters series.
Origin
Ryo first appears in Art of Fighting, where he sets off to fight Mr. Big to save his sister Yuri. However, as he does so, he is led to a mysterious man known as Mr. Karate. After beating him, it is revealed that Mr. Karate was his and Yuri's father, and that he was being manipulated by Geese Howard. Ryo, his family, and his best friend Robert then proceed to search for and fight Geese. After failing to kill Geese in Art Of Fighting 2 (which leads up to the events of the original Fatal Fury), Ryo's role is reduced to a supporting role due to Robert Garcia. Ryo's playable appearances after this are mostly in The King of Fighters series, often teaming with up with Robert, Yuri, or Takuma Sakazaki. In The King of Fighters series, he mostly joins the tournaments to get funds for his family's dojo.
In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Ryo was one of the characters who tried to take the Smash invitation in Terry's trailer. During his scene, he rushes forwards and tries to grab the letter, but it flies away.

Trivia

- Though not originally from the Fatal Fury series, Ryo made playable appearances in two of its games, Fatal Fury Special and Fatal Fury: Wild Ambition.
