Fan:Ryo Akiyama

This article details the relationships between Ryo Akiyama and his fellow DigiDestined in both the Digimon Adventure/02 and Digimon Tamers continuities.

Ken Ichijouji
He was Ken's partner during their adventure in the Digital World. After Ken was implanted with a Dark Spore, unaware of the consequences, Ryo took care of Ken before getting him back to the real world.

Rika Nonaka
Though Ryo holds nothing against Rika, their relationship is somewhat strained due to her pride. In the American dub of Digimon Tamers, Ryo tries to impress and even flirt with her, giving her nicknames like "Pumpkin" or "Wildcat".

Kazu Shioda
Kazu is in awe of Ryo due to his status as the Digimon King. During the battle against ADR-06, the two work together and Kazu's Guardromon even saves Justimon's life earning Kazu Ryo's thanks, causing him to be very happy.

Suzie Wong
Suzie's Antylamon saves Justimon from ADR-06 and helps defeat it. As thanks, Ryo gives Suzie the Radiant Glow card, her first.
