! class="roundb" colspan="3" style="font-size: smaller" | The above skill list does not include skills obtained via [[support]]s or [[Downloadable content in Fire Emblem Fates#Skills|DLC]].

Ryoma joins with high bases and growths in [[HP]], [[speed]], [[strength]], [[Skill (stat)|skill]] and [[luck]], but mediocre-to-low [[Magic (stat)|magic]], [[defense]] and [[resistance]], along with his personal sword [[Raijinto]]. Raijinto gives Ryoma a reliable 1–2 range option, +10 [[avoid]] and +4 strength, on top of having 11 might, making it easily one of the best swords in ''Fates''. He comes with the skills: [[Bushido]], [[Duelist's Blow]] and [[Vantage]]. Bushido grants Ryoma +10 crit, +2 damage dealt, and −2 damage received if the user's level is equal or higher than that of his supporting unit (note that promoted classes count as level +20); considering that Ryoma is a frontline unit and as such will be gaining most of the experience from killing enemies, this skill works excellently with him. Duelist's Blow gives Ryoma additional avoid; along with his already great avoid, this means that Ryoma will rarely ever get hit on player phase, even when suffering from a [[weapon triangle]] disadvantage. Vantage is a situational skill that requires Ryoma to be at low health, and can be useful in situations where he can reliably KO opponents with a single hit or crit, but since Ryoma is fairly fragile it is often safer to heal him instead of keeping him at low health to activate the skill. Ryoma joins with B rank in swords, meaning that he will not be able to wield the highest rank swords at base, though this does not matter much as Ryoma will mostly be using the Raijinto anyway and as a result will not rely too much on other weapons.

On the subject of reclassing, Ryoma has three options: [[Master of Arms]], [[Falcon Knight]] and [[Kinshi Knight]]. Master of Arms lowers Ryoma's speed, but gives him extra bulk and access to [[lance]]s and [[axe]]s. This is mostly useless to Ryoma as he will mostly be using the Raijinto, and he will not be able to use any of the useful lances and axes at base due to his low weapon levels. While in Master of Arms, Ryoma can learn the skills [[Seal Strength]] and [[Life and Death]]. Seal Strength is highly situational on Ryoma as he will usually kill whatever he fights, meaning they will not live long enough for the debuff to make an impact. Life and Death gives a great boost to Ryoma's offenses, though this is often overkill since Ryoma is already more than capable of ORKOing most foes, and it lowers his mediocre defenses even further, making the skill overly risky to use. Both Falcon Knight and Kinshi Knight get rid of Ryoma's ability to use the Raijinto and the skills and utility they offer are not worth the sacrifice of nerfing Ryoma's fantastic combat utility.
