Description

Personality

Ryuboshi is a jovial and upbeat prince of the Ryugu Kingdom, known for his cheerful disposition and habit of adding musical scales ("so-la-ti-do") to the ends of his sentences. He shares a playful bond with his brother Manboshi, often engaging in dance, a habit born from their efforts to comfort their sister Shirahoshi. Despite his lighthearted nature, Ryuboshi displays seriousness and determination when necessary, readily drawing his swords to defend his family and kingdom. He is fiercely loyal and protective of his siblings, particularly Shirahoshi, demonstrating a deep sense of responsibility and familial devotion. While generally optimistic, Ryuboshi is not naive; he shows concern for his family's safety and the well-being of Fish-Man Island, reacting with worry to threats and predictions of disaster. His actions throughout the Fish-Man Island arc highlight his bravery and willingness to fight for what he believes in, even against overwhelming odds.

Abilities

Ryuboshi, along with his brothers, is considered one of the three most powerful warriors in the Neptune army. Their combined strength is such that they could easily defeat the sea beasts that overwhelmed the rest of the army, and even New Fish-Man Pirate officers needed multiple Energy Steroids to stand a chance against them. This demonstrates significant combat prowess and physical strength. His primary weapon is a pair of rapiers, which he wields with exceptional skill. He's shown to be a master swordsman, capable of swiftly dispatching large groups of enhanced sea monsters alongside his brothers. While his specific techniques aren't detailed, his proficiency with these weapons is a key component of his fighting ability. He also possesses the standard physical capabilities of a Merman, though the extent of these is not explicitly shown.
