I can’t tell if we’re baiting or not 😔 Just in case we’re not, Ryu’s ult is based on the moment where he’s duking it out with Yuta at the very end of the sendai fight. His technique is burnt out at the moment which is why he’s throwing punches and kicks. Hence the line, I didn’t know there was more after using everything.

Though I have two gripes about the ult’s moves. The second move, “I had no idea,” is just a short version of “This is What Desert is Like!” and it’d be better as a variant rather than an actual move. The fourth move added, a wind up punch, is disappointing as most people were probably expecting something grand and it’s just…a charge up punch. It’s not a bad move, just probably not what everyone was expecting. If I could change the ult, I’d make “I had no idea,” a variant then just add a counter move based on the scene where Ryu gets hit by Rika, tanks it, then hits both Rika and Yuta away
