Ryuka is more laid back and calm in Part III. He regards everyone with slight indifference, acting in a steadily casual manner. However, when it comes to achieving certain goals, he is not above being ruthless. If anyone he believes is standing in the way of those goals, he will not hesitate to harm them and/or kill them. This is shown in Part III, when he uses Tsukuyomi in order to interrogate a Kirigakure missing-nin for information about Madara and Kyashi's whereabouts. It is also learned that Ryuka's actual middle name, instead of "Asano", is "Senshi". In English, the name means "soldier".
