Ryoko

    

Brief Bio
In the OAV series, Ryoko was sealed up in a cave by Tenchi's ancestors for wreaking havoc on them. She comes out of the cave as an ugly looking mummy once she is released by Tenchi, but she reverts to a beautiful young woman. She has a soft spot for Tenchi and she's not afraid to hide it which angers Ayeka frequently.
In Tenchi Universe, Ryoko crashes her ship near Tenchi's house and tells him that she is being chased by a space pirate. Later, Mihoshi crashes at the same place and chases her down in a showdown between Katsuhito and Mihoshi. Then, Mihoshi proves that she is a Galaxy Police officer and that Ryoko is the evil space pirate. After threatening to kill Mihoshi, Tenchi steps in and challenges Ryoko who couldn't bear to fight Tenchi. She gives up and says it was all a joke, destroying Mihoshi's computer so that she cannot remember the rights to read in order to arrest her. Therefore, Mihoshi cannot arrest Ryoko and they both are stranded at Tenchi's house.

Analysis:
* = Ryoko can fly, which means she can hover over terrain that other characters can't walk on. Ryoko has a good increment in statistics as she improves throughout the game. At Level 8, she has a decent HP rating, average Strength, average Defense, and an excellent movement rate. On top of that, her techniques have good range and she can fly, which means she can move over water and onto terrain that most other characters in the game cannot. Her only disadvantage, however, is that she leaves your party near the end of the game and you get her back just before the last boss so if she isn't at her maximum level by then she won't be, and therefore, you won't get her to her maximum potential.
