Matachi Ryo


Matachi Ryo (又地 諒) is a painter and Unlimited Cliffer No. 2.


His first appearance was in SASUKE 21, where he was the third fastest qualifier in the SASUKE 21 Trials. During the tournament, he showed great speed, clearing many of the obstacles quickly, including the Jumping Spider. On the Soritatsu Kabe, he was able to scale the wall on his second attempt. However, on the Flying Chute, he was able to grab the rope but couldn't reach the net and fell into the water there. Out of the eight qualifiers that day, he made it the farthest

He participated in the SASUKE 22 Trials, but did not make it past the 800m race part of the first round.

He continues to train today with his fellow cliffers. From his profile in SASUKE 21, he is shown to have the Shin-Cliffhanger jump in his room. Recently, he has practiced with fellow competitors, Arai Kenichi, Nagasawa Hidenori, and Takahashi Kenji.

He returned in SASUKE 25 by winning the pull up event in the Trials, with a result of 42 pull-ups. He drew #6 in the lottery and was the first real threat to the First Stage. He was the first to attempt and beat the new Bridge Jump. However, he mis-hit the springboard on the re-designed Circle Slider and fell there.

Due to his past performance, he was invited to SASUKE 26, failing the Rolling Escargot in an all-cut performance.

He earned a spot in SASUKE 27 after qualifying from the trials. Although he took 2 attempts at the Warped Wall, He cleared the First Stage for the first time. In the Second Stage, he struggled on the Wall Lifting and eventually went under the third wall after barely lifting it. He still cleared with 3.43 seconds left. In the Third Stage, he would clear all the obstacles with ease and became the first person to make it to the Final Stage after Urushihara Yuuji's Kanzenseiha, and more impressively the first person to clear both the Second and Third Stage on his first attempt on those specific stages since Urushihara Yuuji in SASUKE 22. In the Final Stage, he climbed about 18 meters up the Tsuna Nobori before timing out.

Matachi returned in the next tournament, and was one of only five to clear the First Stage, doing so with a narrow window of 1.47 seconds left. In the Second Stage, he easily cleared the Swap Salmon Ladder and Unstable Bridge, however he wasted almost 20 seconds drying his hands and applying adhesive spray before the Spider Walk and was majorly slowed down by the Backstream. He reached the Passing Wall with around 20 seconds left, however struggled to lift the first wall and timed out just after squeezing under. This was a strange defeat, as all the competitors that cleared that stage in that tournament finished with over 10 seconds left.

Usually he supports on Urushihara Yuuji in every tournament.
