Ryoko is one of the most complex characters I have seen in a while,
and it was she who held my interest and dragged me into Tenchi Muyo.
Ryoko is a hellraiser with a long line of deep secrets, her affection
for Tenchi being one of them. She presents herself with a cruel and
ruthless persona but keeps her real self tucked away from the world.
She tries so hard to be affectionate, loving, and understanding, but
only certain characters acknowledge her inner misery. Ryoko is misunderstood,
more than anyone in the series, and her strength hides it away from
the world. She's the only one who made me cry during the entire series,
and that's reason enough to appreciate her.
