Ryoko Izumo

Ryoko Izumo (出雲 良子, Izumo Ryōko) is a character in the World Heroes series of fighting games. She was inspired by real-life judoka, 2 times Olympic gold medal winner and 7 times world champion, Ryoko Tani. Like Ryoko from the Fighter's History, the main details from her background are modeled after the title character of the manga series Yawara!. She is voiced by Mari Kamimura.

Story
Ryoko is a disciplined and diligent Japanese judo practitioner and sports superstar who fills the hearts of the people in her hometown with pride. Even since her father left her when she was younger, she hasn't seen him in a long time, and therefore has been training under her grandfather for years. She hears of a tournament and enters there to test herself. After the tournament, Ryoko returns home and continues to improve herself ever further.
