You're very straight and you're facing straight ahead, so you can't see what's going on around you. That's tricky when it comes to big battles.
 
— Ryusei to Chifuyu

Ryusei Satou ( () (とう) (りゅう) (せい) Satō Ryusei?) is the former Tokyo Manji Gang First Division Vice-Captain (壱番隊 副隊長Ichiban-tai Fuku Taichō?) and the former Special Attack Captain of Yotsuya Kaidan. He is the deuteragonist of the Tokyo Revengers: Letter from Keisuke Baji spin-off series.

Appearance[]

Ryusei has tan skin and has dyed, messy pink hair with a few black strands. On his right ear he sports a ring earring with a tassel. He has droopy dark eyes with long eyelashes on the bottom and a snake tattoo on the left side of his neck. Ryusei is usually seen wearing a faux fur coat over a black t-shirt, and occasionally the standard school uniform. He is considered handsome by his female classmates and himself.

When he was younger, Ryusei had black hair and was styled close to a bowl cut.[2]

Personality[]

Ryusei has a very laid-back attitude. He is very calm, even in the face of very difficult situations. He is quite confident of himself, always calling himself handsome and that along with his friendly personality makes him very popular among his peers. He is very playful and likes to tease. He is also very cunning which makes it easy for him to mess around with people, he often messes with people for fun. For example, he offered Chifuyu help to get recognition from Baji by giving him a new hairstyle, but he styled Chifuyu's hair in a hilariously overdramatic and large pompadour. Chiufyu finds Ryusei's playful personality very annoying. Despite Ryusei's knack for messing with people, he seems to actually be a very caring guy as he was one of the few people who visited a wounded First Division member, Cho, every day, leaving him flowers and gifts. He saved Chifuyu from getting beaten by an opposing gang member even though Chifuyu openly showed his dislike towards him. He also greatly respects Baji and provides him with utmost protection when necessary. His truly kind personality was even recognized by Peke J, Chifuyu's cat. He doesn't mind being viewed as a narcissist if it means he can help his gang.

Underneath his relaxed and spirited personality seems to lie much turmoil. He seems to have a very violent side as seen when he almost killed the leader of the gang Killer Bee which may have something to do with his past relationship with Yotsuya Kaidan. It is revealed he left Yotsuya Kaiden because of how it grew into a violent and bloodthirsty gang and joined the Tokyo Manji gang because he felt, unlike his own gang, that they actually cared about each other and did not want to harm innocent people.

Ryusei deeply cares for Kojiro Hishi since they both grew up together. While he was in charge of Yotsuya Kaiden, he began to notice Kojiro's violent tendencies and was worried he might kill someone someday. He rejoined Yotsuya and pretended to betray the First Division because he wanted to save Kojiro from the darkness within him. With the help of Chifuyu, he was able to realize that Kojiro was a lost cause and left his former gang for good.

He seems to be an expert on boxing and knows various useful and important fighting techniques which gives him a great advantage compared to others. He can also easily distract his opponents which makes it even easier for him to defeat them. He was able to defeat Killer Bee, a very big and powerful gang with only one person, Chifuyu Matsuno, by his side, all the while protecting Baji.

His strength is such that he has the respect of Baji who openly acknowledges his strength.

Intelligence and Charm[]

He is a very intelligent individual who can read and understand people, including his opponents very well. He also seems to know a lot about boxing and fighting techniques.
