I think my first taste of ryona was in Sonic Adventure 2 Battle, with Knuckles’ boss fight against Rouge. I was really young and it gave me weird feelings; I ended up asking my brother to do the fight for me. At the time I thought it was because I wasn’t ok with hitting a girl. Other times my brother would be playing fighting games against female characters, and I’d feel the need to leave the room.
I’m not sure where everything changed, but I eventually stumbled upon the WWE Divas and developed a fetish for female wrestling and catfights. I actually developed a ryona fetish before I discovered regular porn. As I was looking for wrestling videos on YouTube, I eventually started stumbling upon MUGEN fights with female characters as well, although they were not explicitly ryona videos. I continued to fall deeper into that rabbit hole, eventually mingling with my love for anime, and then I found Aika R-16. The Agent Aika series solidified my ryona fetish. I later discovered Senran Kagura, and that just doubled it down. I also ran into Variable Geo Neo, and that ended up sprinkling a rape fetish on top. To this day, those series characterize my taste in ryona.
So yeah, I’m all about the ryona itself. Heavy impacts. Knockouts. Torn clothing. The poses, moans, and facial expressions the girls make when they get hit. The exhaustion and squirming after being defeated, and the punishment for losing. I can’t handle guro or snuff; the sight of any amount of blood is too much for me, although I’m strangely okay with heavy bruising. I’m not in it for the injury, and I don’t want the characters to be injured. I’m 100% in it for the reactions to the pain.
