Actually I can dissect the differences.
Ryu is stronger yet slower than Ken, while Ken's faster yet weaker.

And Ryu is a communist.
Shoryuken > Hadoken
Ken's Hurricane kick > Ryu's
In all seriousness though Darth is right, but Ken's comboability and flexibility make him alot stronger in most of the games he is in compared to Ryu.
I prefer Ryu, his story is better, his character development was better. And playablity wise, hes superior, Kens speeds has nothing against Ryu's amazing combo's...
Ken always seemed like the Ryu wannabe to me.
I assure you, Ryu stole his words from my own mouth and used them against me. He used my words combined with lies to put me in the bad side of people's eyes!Originally Posted by Kain Strife
Ryu has the better stage music and ending. "Ceremony means nothing to him," etc.

I hate people who think Ryu and Ken are brothers... seriously.
Totally. Everyone knows Ryu and E. Honda are brothers.
Ryu always seemed to be harder, but heck, i warmed to Ken.

Ryu and Ken studied at the same dojo for ten years and have the most of the same techniqes. Ken is more agresive in the movie and Ryu has more endurince. in the US Ken Masters became the #1 marital art champion, where as Ryu travled alot. but as for whos better? well in street fighter 2, Ryu beat the crap out of Sagat and Fa Long. Both of wich are powerful fighters.
i have limited knowledge of street fighter but ive played a couple of games and seen one of the animated movies (its some sort of bonus feature on an anniversary edition or something.)
if found ken usually has more useful moves and have always preferred using him. he has hadoken and slightly different moves to ryu. im pretty sure ken is the older one or at least the agressive one who doesnt hold back. whenever ive seen ryu and ken fight, ken usually wins. theres a flashback in the film where they are younger and ken is winning. when M.Bison controls ken and makes him fight ryu, ken is winning but i think thats because hes violently fighting and not holding back where ryu doesnt want to fight. there so even that its hard to choose. even the votes are near even. street fighter seems to make ken seem more powerful but im still unsure who is the most powerful. it seems that ryu is intended to be more powerful but im not sure. their really even.
