LADIES…ITS REAL RYOKEN HOURS
Ryoken’s life was just like yusakus, as said before: Chosen for him.
To this day: Ryoken is STILL connected to his Father’s project and has been for the majority of life. He’s so deep rooted into it that it would be nearly impossible for him to get out of.
Ryoken can’t simply change his decision even if he wanted to, HIS PATH. He has an entire affiliation who’re dedicated to the point of giving their LIVES for the elimination of the ignis, he can’t step down, he just CANT.
Along with being forced to be apart of the project by his father; when Ryoken was terrified with the glimpses he heard/saw of the kidnapped children and he believed it to be wrong and called the police, it was only to be shown as a wrong-doing when his father then got locked away then placed into a coma, where he would so later die in the series.
This could lead to a reason that Ryoken, not only feels guilty about the victim’s in the lost incident, but he feels responsible for his father’s death as well. Him thinking that If it weren’t for him making that phone call that one day, his father would still be alive.
I believe that’s why he stated why he “regretted” saving Yusaku that one day.
Also as Windy stated, that he killed his counterpart, with remembering that Ryoken’s Father created the Ignis, a child did end up dying because of the incident.
Ryoken has the guilt of all that his father left behind.
As well, he hasn’t had a moment to grieve over his Father’s death because he’s just so deep into this project that it’s literally the main focus of his life.
The tower of Hanoi pretty much confirmed this
I do believe Ryoken is a victim the Lost Incident (in a different way than the others were of course)
I think that’s why Yusaku wants to save Ryoken, even if the reason may of been a different at the beginning. After seeing how Ryoken was after the reveal, a whole new situation came up.
Seeing how deep he was in the project even after it disbanded, it still continued to warp the mind of another victim.
How Ryoken thinks is unhealthy, the situation he’s in, Ryoken was never freed, but only weeded into it even further.
Ryoken has nobody he can vent to, or tell his problems to. Don’t get me wrong, there is Spectre, but I feel as a leader of the Hanoi Knights he feels that he can’t show his weakness or get his guard down for others. He HAS to be strong.
Which is silly since he’ll gladly listen and sympathize with others. He validates every side and doesn’t give them any reason to hold back, he truly does care.
He just has alot of weight to carry on his shoulders and I’m personally just waiting for him to snap during a duel with Yusaku.
Yusaku is what Ryoken NEEDS to free him of the fate he was trapped into.
Yusaku has already stated said before how with his bond with Ryoken he can vent to him and tell him his weaknesses, what hurts him, anything.
Yusaku wants to save him, and will keep extending his arm out for him, and will keep fighting *FOR* Ryoken
He just wants what’s best for the most important thing to him.
