Vs. ???

 * Ryoma: Vengeance will be mine... Prepare to die!
 * ???: Heh. Heh. Heh...
 * Ryoma: You can kill me, but you cannot kill the spirit of Hoshido!
 * Sakura: Brother, no! You have to step back! We can't afford to lose you...
 * Ryoma: Ugh...you're right. I'll retreat for now...

Vs. Scarlet

 * Scarlet: ...
 * Ryoma: This presence...it feels so familiar. Is...is that you, Scarlet? No, it can't be... This may be Scarlet's form, but the woman herself is long gone. Even knowing that, I... I can't... Forgive me, Scarlet. At the very least, I will give you peace...

Vs. Sumeragi

 * Sumeragi: Ryoma, my eldest son... My pride... I hunger for the glory of a battle between us. I expect nothing less than your best-you will be getting mine!

- Ryoma's Conquest Chapter 6 pre-battle quote

(Vs. Avatar)

 * Ryoma: Avatar! Do not allow them to fool you a moment longer. There's still time... Come back to your true family, where you belong!
 * Avatar: I'm sorry, Ryoma. I'm afraid that's not possible. I've made up my mind. I'm staying with Xander and my Nohrian siblings.
 * Ryoma: Very well. Although it pains me, I see you cannot be dissuaded. In that case, I have no choice but to drag you back to Hoshido by force!

- Ryoma's Conquest Chapter 12 pre-battle quote

(Vs. Avatar)

 * Avatar: I'm sorry Ryoma, but you know I can't go back to Hoshido with you. Though it pains me, I will not hesitate to strike you down to save my sister.
 * Ryoma: Your sister? Hmph. So you still think of the Nohrian royals as your true family.
 * Avatar: ....
 * Ryoma: If you only knew what it would mean to us to have that place in your heart....It's not too late for that. I won't give up on you, Brother/Sister. Never. That's why I must win this battle and take you back to Hoshido! Let us begin!

(Vs. Azura)

 * Ryoma: Azura... Hinoka and Takumi told me you were fighting with the enemy. I had to see it with my own eyes to believe it. What a pity. I suppose the Nohrian blood flowing in your veins lends itself to betrayal..
 * Azura: Think of me what you will, Ryoma. But know that I am, and ever shall be, grateful for my time in Hoshido. I'm especially grateful for your family, who raised me as their own. That includes you too, Ryoma. You were like the brother I never had.
 * Ryoma: Azura... Leave it to you to craft such a lovely farewell. I wish I could forget our time together. It would make this a lot easier. But enough with farewells. Let us battle!

Defeated
"Not again! We'll have to...retreat..."

- Ryoma's Conquest Chapter 12 defeat/retreat quote

Conquest Chapter 25
(Vs. Avatar) (Vs. Other)
 * Ryoma: It's time, Avatar. Show me the power you used to slay our sister! Or does the Yato repel at your touch now that your heart and soul are dead?
 * Avatar: Ryoma, stop this. I don't want to fight you! I can explain all of this, even Hinoka. Please, listen to me!
 * Ryoma: Ha! As though I would allow you to distract me with false remorse. How dare you pretend to be my brother/sister after killing Hinoka! You are nothing to me. Just a filthy coward like the rest of your kingdom. I have said all I wish to say to you. Nothing you can do will sway me. You are no brother/sister of mine, Nohrian prince/ss! Watch my blade take back whatever Hoshidan blood remains in you!
 * Avatar: Ryoma! No!!
 * Ryoma: Only an honorless boor would interfere with a duel!

Defeated

- Ryoma's Revelation Chapter 13 pre-battle quote

(Vs. Avatar)

 * Ryoma: Avatar. Here we are again, and still you are my enemy.
 * Avatar: Ryoma...It's true that I still haven't chosen a side. But that's because I believe we can work together for a different cause. We don't have to fight Nohr, and we don't have to fight one another!
 * Ryoma: Don't be foolish. You're asking me to abandon Hoshido. I cannot do that. I would never... I couldn't face Queen Mikoto if i did!
 * Avatar: ...Ah!
 * Ryoma: Return to Hoshido, Avatar! I'll bring you back by force if I have to!
 * Avatar: Please, Ryoma! Stop! This can't be what Mother would want!

(Vs. Kagero)

 * Ryoma: Kagero.
 * Kagero: Lord Ryoma, I'm so glad to see you're alive!
 * Ryoma: Indeed I am. And it appears you were able to tell everyone where I was going. I don't recall asking for you to bring an enemy army with you. though.
 * Kagero: Lord/Lady Avatar is not leading an army of enemies, milord. He/She can't go into detail yet, but... I feel that he/she knows something.
 * Ryoma: It doesn't matter. Kagero. Anyone who doesn't side with Hoshido is the enemy. What will you be?
 * Kagero: I... will defeat the real enemy and seek out the truth.
 * Ryoma: I see... If you're so convinced you're right, then ready your weapon! Prove your resolve to this new path and cross swords with your liege!

(Vs. Saizo)

 * Saizo:  Lord Ryoma...
 * Ryoma: You would point your blade at me, Saizo? Have you truly joined Avatar and betrayed your liege?
 * Saizo: No. My loyalty lies with you and you alone. However I feel that you are blinded to the real enemy among us... I do not think I am betraying you now. My actions will show you...
 * Ryoma: Hmph... So even you have had your heart swayed by Avatar.
 * Saizo: That may be the case. In time, yours will, too. I must get past you though. The fate of this town requires it. Please, find it your heart to forgive me for what I must do...
