She is the legendary demon who has
been sealed in Masaki Shrine since ancient
times. Awakened by Tenchi from 700 years of
sleep, she is back in business with her
magical powers. This head-strong and
capricious girl has all the attractive
qualities of a complete woman: She can
move through solid matter, blow holes
in the ceiling with her powerful blasts
and even fly. As Washuu's creation,
Ryoko can be described by her mother's
favourite word: Perfect. The assault
on Jurai by Ryoko and Ryo-oh-ki
happened 700 years ago. Their objective
was to steal the Tsunami unit, the origin
of Trees of Imperial Family. They failed
in the end. After all, it was far too
reckless of them to dive into the Jurai's
main star. Actually, it was Kagato who
wanted the Tsunami unit, and Ryoko was
simply following his orders. He thought
that Tsunami possessed what he calls
the Sacred Jewel of Universe, the biggest
power in the universe. Incidentally at
the time of the assault, Ryoko had all
three jewels on her, which in turn
proves the strength of Jurai's armed
forces, who turned her away. When
Ryoko was a space pirate, she was
called "Devil of Destruction". "My
dear Ayeka, I have to leave tomorrow
and chase that Devil of Destruction."
Why? Of course her enormous power was
one reason, but the main reason was
that she caused more damage by
destruction than by robbery. For
example, if she wanted a vase deep
in a museum, she would just marched
to it, paying no attention to (or
not caring about) all other valuable
things. There may have been planets
that were willing to give up what
Ryoko wanted just to avoid the
collateral damage. But Ryoko would
not take any notice and just go
for her target anyway. She sometimes,
restricted her power to make a
robbery less easy and more enjoyable.
Her fight with Tenchi was a mere
child's play for her.
