Reiji Oyama

Reiji Oyama (大山 礼児, Ooyama Reiji) is one of the characters from Power Instinct Matrimelee, having made appearances as a playable character since the first game in the Power Instinct series.

Story
He works part-time for a construction company to exert his excess energy. He also constantly searches for a worthy opponent.

Reiji received an invitation to participate in a fighting tournament that is going to be held in a faraway country in which the prize is to get married with the princess of that Kingdom. Reiji decided to participate in the Matrimelee tournament. However his aim is not really the princess; he participates to test his Karate.

Personality
Reiji is very straightforward and honest and is the ultimate training fanatic. He does not do well with minute details, but excels at physical strength matches. He also apparently takes his training very seriously, as he becomes upset with himself if he loses.
