Overview
As they say, every person has their own creed—and it’s only right to respect it as the Executive Manager. But with some creeds, you will have difficulty in even simply pretending to sympathize. You will have noticed that the sinner in question is a silent chain-smoker whose eyes shine with a euphoric gleam only during battle. She believes that senselessly destroying the enemy's heads is an uncultured act and a step backward for art. If you are at your wit's end, please press the red button included in your welcome kit.

「Other lesser painters are such mediocrities, they have no way to recognize the beauty that lies in ugliness.」[1]


Ryōshū (Hangul: 료슈, Ryosyu) is designated Sinner #4 of Limbus Company's LCB department.

Ryōshū is an "artistic" and ungovernable woman with little tolerance for what disinterests or offends her, meaning many of her ventures prior to Limbus Company are unknown, an implied affiliation with the Fingers of the Backstreets notwithstanding.

She will be the focus character of the currently unannounced Canto IX.

Appearance[]

Ryōshū, a woman of average height and build with striking black hair styled in a bob cut and piercing red eyes, habitually drapes her work coat nonchalantly around her shoulders, cinched by a petite belt that proudly displays her ID card against a backdrop of crimson lining, contrasting sharply with the pristine white of her long-sleeved shirt peeking from beneath, complemented by the stark simplicity of her black trousers, occasionally punctuated by the presence of a solitary black glove adorning her left hand, and she is rarely seen without her imposing Odachi securely sheathed upon her back, its formidable blade emblazoned with the enigmatic script "無我夢中 阿鼻叫喚 支離滅裂," its hilt shimmering resplendently in gold with a delicate motif of butterflies, while the termination of its scabbard is elegantly ensconced in a crimson ribbon that adds a flourish of color to her otherwise austere ensemble.

Personality[]

Ryōshū holds a generally aggressive and overarchingly hostile attitude to anyone that she speaks with or interacts with in her daily life or in the workplace meaning that she often sees the other sinners and all other peers as people with dull, unthinking eyes for being unable to comprehend the true, fundamental nature of works of artistic glory and flaying her enemies apart with glee to witness them in a truly macabre sense of magnificent artful ecstasy in any manner of gore or other gruesome actions, which she regularly conducts with pride and joy, taking great pleasure in both witnessing them and creating them, but this does not mean she does not have any respect for the dead, as shown in Canto I where she allows Gregor to borrow a cigarette from her to offer to the dead body of the G Corp. Head Manager, even in spite of the fact that he did not want to offer his own towards them.

She does not speak often in comparison to the other sinners, possibly even less than Yi Sang, but more often than not, her sentences often include a SANGRIA (Succinct abbreviation naturally germinates rather immaculate art), or in the words of someone that isn't Ryoshu, a short abbreviation of a sentence, most often very descriptive in nature, though someone like Sinclair can understand those abbreviations, however; this is evident in the following Cantos, where Sinclair translates those specific abbreviations for the LCB Sinners, which means that this specific habit of hers even confuses some of the Sinners, such as Heathcliff, making him ask what one of her SANGRIA means, and she seems to like spending time alone rather than with others, as she believes that others are too "plain" to understand and comprehend what she considers to be "true art" while according to the other sinners, she is often smoking in the bus, even with a ban (albeit rarely enforced and highly lenient) on smoking in the bus.

Her praising of her "art" means that she occasionally suggests inhumane options or decisions depending on the current situation, demonstrated in Canto II: The Unloving, suggesting that the Sinners should not run but kill them all, and agreeing with Effie when he followed up with wiping out the whole syndicate, and when told to do an order any normal person would understand the literal context of, like the time in "Episode Mini: Risk Levels and Classifications", when ordered to keep any interrupting speakers, she was thinking to instead use violent tactics, to the point even Dante knew what was coming and told her to do it without killing them or beating them up, and even in acts of interrogation this tendency would shine once again; one of her methods would be threatening to cleanly and swiftly behead and dismember a Yurodiviye member to bring out information from him.

As unnerving and unsettling her attitude mostly is, she has seemed to develop some care for her colleagues along the run, where in Intervallo IV: Timekilling Time, when Rodion was feeling quite miserable as she had been away from the other sinners and missed Gregor, Ryōshū told her to cheer up, as she had reasoned that they would be searching for the culprit for a few more hours or so, which is unusual.

Weapon[]

Ryōshū wields her ōdachi, "無我夢中 阿鼻叫喚 支離滅裂", often gripped by the sheath, on her left arm, creating the appearance of a blade that is consistently sheathed, with the possible exception of her E.G.O, while in Mirror Worlds, she typically wields a separate weapon, while noticeably still carrying her ōdachi behind her.

Background[]

Not much is known about her background at the moment.

It is theorized that she has some relation to the Five Fingers of the Backstreets. In her official art, she is surrounded by them, and they are also seen in her base EGO's cell window.

She once referred to the endless corridor behind the Backdoor of Mephistopheles as the Corridor, suggesting a connection to The Ring

She also had shown signs of knowing how Shi Association works, telling others not to even talk while their fixers are around at Canto IV (04-26).
