Ryōna

**Ryōna** (両奈) is a playable character from the *Senran Kagura* video game series. She makes her debut in *Senran Kagura: Shinovi Versus*.

Like her twin sister Ryōbi, Ryōna is a first-year student at Hebijo. Between her and Ryōbi, Ryōna is considered the elder sister of the twins. Ryōna likes being chastised and scolded, has no complex (loves showing off her breasts, doesn't mind speaking to others about things relating her masochism, often disturbing them) and is a giant masochist. She has a freestyle shooting posture.

## Profile

### Appearance

Ryōna is a young woman with short blonde hair, and heterochromatic eyes, with her left eye being emerald green, in color and her right eye is sapphire blue. She is fond of dressing up as a winged princess, which shows off her remarkably curvy figure (even by the game's standards).

She dons a white outfit with a short, wide ballerina tutu decorated with triangular patterns. The top of the outfit ends in two triangles held together by thin threads which keep the back held together. More threads reach from each triangle to the other triangle to keep from exposing her bust and the front of the outfit from falling off (both of these things she probably wouldn't have a problem with).

She also wears white stockings with triangular cut tops trimmed with gold, boots that reach up to under her knees which are trimmed the same way as her stockings (her arms also share the same trend). Finally, her outfit is accessorized with two angelic wings and a silver tiara on her head.

### Personality

She is more than often showing off her bust to the other girls both friend or foe and is a massive masochist. She has dozens of different poses while shooting her guns and speaks in a high pitched, squeaky voice. When the topic of good vs evil or whenever someone mentions Ryōki, her and Ryōbi's older sister take on a serious personality, ranging from questioning (in question to good vs evil) to even violent (towards those who knows of Ryōki's whereabouts).

## Combat Capabilities & Gameplay

Ryōna is a "Fodder" (Type 5): She wields, in each hand, a double-barreled (unconventionnal) pistol, which barrels are joined at the hilt using her index and pinky fingers to fire them simultaneously or differentiately. The weapons bear no possible spots to place a magasine or anything to reload them. The pistols are different: one is a incendiary pistol shooting scorching bullets, while the other is a cryogenic pistol firing freezing bullets. The combo of the two according to her attacks create a chain of cristal ice being created and blowing up repeatly. She also is proficient in incorporating dancing and ice skating into her fighting style which she performs gracefully. She is able to glide and skate on virtually any surface as if it were ice, including a sandy beach, a rock path, and even walls. The attacks are weak most of the time, but she still attack fast, able to occupy foes and annoying them. (A combo Ryouna/Ryoubi is theorized to be highly efficient against some strong characters, if not considering how chaotic the fight may become.)

## Trivia

* Ryōna's name means "Both Are Strong", referring to her and her sister.
* Her name sounds very close to Ryona which is a type of fetish of having the girls feature get beaten up (if not worse), this may have been intentional considering her masochistic tendencies.
* It is likely that Ryōna suffers from a form of Sexual Masochism Disorder, (SMD) as evidenced in the prologue of Estival Versus, she remarks on "how good it would feel" if she were to jump into a fire, and was surprised at how "good" it felt being caught in an explosion.
* Ryōna's Design and fighting Style are inspired by the popular Ice performance *Swan Lake*.
* Ryōna and her sister share their birthday with Yoshimitsu.
