Ridley's Character Arc I just want to point out the character development  Ridley's gone through. After his loss in the first tournament to K. Rool, he started using cybernetic armor, which was strong enough to beat even LINK. But then, after Linus managed to hack it and defeat him, he swore it off, AND HE WON THE TOURNAMENT. 

Not to mention how he took down his rival: King K. Rool, without the armor, proving once and for all that he didn't need it.

10/10 best anime.
