-	Seems like the fact tying "Ryu" to Street Fighter keeps getting deleted and re-added, and I have to say, I agree that it's probably not a reference. Not only is it the Japanese word for "Dragon", and one which is a very common stereotypical Japanese video game/anime name, but I can think of two other prominent characters in video games named Ryu right off the top of my head: the heroes of all five Breath of Fire games ~~are named Ryu~~, and ~~so is~~ the hero of the Ninja Gaiden series, Ryu Hayabusa. So, that "none of the other examples are from video games" is, well, dead wrong. And Math Kickers isn't enough like Street Fighter for it to be a direct reference, IMO. -{{User:YK/sig}} 20:59, 3 January 2009 (UTC)	+	Seems like the fact tying "Ryu" to Street Fighter keeps getting deleted and re-added, and I have to say, I agree that it's probably not a reference.
