    Voiced by: Hideyuki Hori (TV series), Daisuke Sakaguchi (Shin Kyūseishu Densetsu movie series, as a child)
    Neither embracing the Hokuto nor Nanto style, he is master of Taizan Tenrōken (泰山天狼拳, "Taishan Celestial Wolf Fist"). Ryūga is of the Tenrō-sei (天狼星) or solitary star of Sirius; the Lone Wolf. His unique Taizan Tenrōken scoops out chunks of flesh from his enemies, letting them experience bitter cold before death. He is the older brother of Kenshiro's beloved Yuria. Having despised the chaos and turmoil that followed the post-apocalyptic world, he joined Raoh believing that his iron fist would bring stability and order back to the world. The Tenrō was destined to help Hokuto. As a result, Ryūga destroyed those who opposed Raoh and set out to fight Kenshiro in order to discover who was stronger among the two. After attacking Toki to draw out Kenshiro, Ryūga's mentality began to change. Just before his fated duel with Kenshiro, Ryūga slit his belly already believing that it would be he who would save the world instead of Raoh. He appears in the opening flashback in Yuria Den as a child.
