Takahashi Ryosuke (Cv. Maaya) (Jinushi.ver) TTS Computer AI Voice

Ryosuke Takahashi (高橋 涼介, Takahashi Ryōsuke, known as Ry in the Tokyopop version) is the founder, and leader of both the Akagi RedSuns and Project D. Famously nicknamed Akagi's White Comet (赤城の白い彗星, Akagi no Shiroi Suisei), Ryosuke created the RedSuns with the purpose of dominating the street racing scene all over Japan, recruiting his brother Keisuke and others local to Mount Akagi to achieve this goal. Alongside Keisuke, they're both given the nicknames of the 'Rotary Brothers'. He is a very skilled racer who can predict the racing outcomes by his theories, something that Keisuke (his brother) has been unable to understand and/or replicate. He drives a White Mazda FC3S RX-7. His real aim is to figure out the 'Fastest Racing Theory', and this is where Takumi Fujiwara fits in almost perfectly. Before forming a racing team, Ryosuke was a lone racer, who earned the title 'The White Comet of Akagi' due to his fast driving on his white FC RX7. He never lost any battle with anyone. Soon he created the 'Akagi RedSuns', a racing team with highly skilled drivers and mechanics such as Fumihiro, Kenta Nakamura and others. In between all this, Ryosuke attended a medical college as he was sent by his parents with hope of becoming a doctor. Ryosuke then met a senior in his college, named Kaori. She was a sweet looking and caring woman, and they both liked each other a lot. She was the one who insisted Ryosuke on following his true dreams, which for Ryosuke was to train street racers to become the best and conquer the entire Kanto region. But at that time, Ryosuke was not very open about it. However as their relations went on, Kaori's parents planned an arrange marriage with Rin Hojo, whose family had good connections with Kaori's in terms of businesses. Rin Hojo was apparently also Ryosuke's senior as well, and he was the one who taught Ryosuke about touge street racing and drifting, but he was not aware of Ryosuke's affair with Kaori. Later on, when Ryosuke told her that she should tell he parents the truth about her relation with him, Kaori explained to Ryosuke that things are not that easy for her to open up, especially to her parents. While Rin Hojo did love her, but the same was not true for the other way around. Kaori resisted her parent's wish, which caused conflicts between her parents and even Rin. Rin tried to persuade Kaori into liking, even asking her who she actually is in love with, so that he can speak to him, but Kaori did not say anything, as her mind and heart was set for Ryosuke. It soon went that far that Rin even tried to blackmail her with the fact that he will make her father's business and life tough if she does not marry him. Caught up in the midst of too much pressure from her family and her fiancé, Kaori decided to end it all by committing suicide, but not before calling Ryosuke for one last time about her motives. After her death, Rin Hojo moved away from Gunma to Kanagawa, and Ryosuke decided to move on from her, trying to keep his past away. Somewhere in between of it, Ryosuke realized his younger brother Keisuke was creating a headache for his family and was heavily involved with the biker gangs. Keisuke at that time was not interested in cars as he saw them as an obstacle for bikes. However all this changed when one day he took him on his FC and raced downhill at high speeds. Keisuke, who initially thought Ryosuke wanted to end it all with Keisuke, realized his brother was trying to teach him about street racing in the touge and its wonders. He soon began to train with his Mazda FD3S RX-7.
