 * "The Blader Spirit... ...THE BLADER SPIRIT!"
 * "It is I, the one the only immortal Phoenix "

Trivia

 * Ryo's Japanese name, literally means "meteor" or "shooting star" in Japanese. This is interesting since his son's name is Gingka, Japanese for "galaxy."
 * Ryo's bandanna symbol is the head of Pegasus with two wings, while Gingka's is the head of Pegasus with one wing. But Gingka later gets a bandanna with four wings in 4D.
 * Ryo is the first person to own two different beys: StormMFB_Phoenix.png Pegasus and Burn Fireblaze. The second is Benkei.
 * In Metal Masters, he wants Hikaru to call him: "The Immortal Phoenix".
 * In Metal Masters he tries to become a sub member for the Japan team after they lose Tsubasa and Yu.
 * In the Metal Fury episode The Silver Pegasus, Hokuto refers to him as "a legendary blader". This may be or not be incorrect according to calculations because the Legendary Bladers are bladers whose beys got hit with a piece from The Star Fragment. However, Storm Pegasus was a bey that had a piece of the Star Fragment, and Storm Pegasus was once owned by Ryo.
 * It is unknown where or why Ryo hasn't appeared again older in Beyblade Zero-G.
