Ryūko Matoi (Matoi Ryūko) is the daughter of Isshin Matoi and the main protagonist of Kill la Kill. She transferred to Honnōji Academy searching for the twin of her red Scissor Blade and the person who used it to murder her father.
It is later revealed that Ryūko is the daughter of Sōichirō and Ragyō Kiryūin and the younger sister of Satsuki. It was also revealed that Ryūko had supposedly died after she was born after Ragyō had attempted to fuse her body with Life Fibers, which was declared a failed experiment by Ragyō herself; however, Ragyō's experiment would later be revealed to be a success. Ryūko was later saved by her father, with her father faking her death and raising her under the alias of Isshin Matoi until his death at the hands of Nui Harime. Six months after Isshin's death, Ryūko transferred to Honnōji Academy.

Senketsu (Episodes 1-24), Scissor Blade (Episodes 1-21), Rending Scissors & Tailor's Dagger (Episodes 22-25)
Scissor Blade
Decapitation Mode
Rending Scissors
The Scissor Blades (Katatachi Basami), also known as the Rending Scissors (ちりバサミ Tachikiri Basami) when combined, are a giant pair of scissors developed by Isshin Matoi specifically for severing Life Fibers. Divided into two weapons around the time of Dr. Matoi's death; one half going to his daughter Ryūko; and the other to his killer, Nui Harime. The scissor blades are made from hardened Life Fibers so this makes the Scissor Blades the only weapons (beside Satsuki Kiryūin's Bakuzan) that are capable of cutting through the Goku Uniforms and Kamui's (except for Ragyō Kiryūin's Shinra-Kōketsu, which is also made of hardened Life Fibers).
The red Scissor Blade also displays the ability to change its size, going from a weapon that is nearly as tall as Ryūko to a trinket barely any larger than a normal set of scissors. Ryūko usually keeps the blade in its smaller form when not in a combat situation, but also owns a metal guitar case to carry her weapon around.
This half of the Scissor Blade appears capable of changing color. It is shown to be red during Isshin's murder, purple when in Nui's possession, and red once again when Ryūko retrieves it.
In episode 23, both the Scissor Blades go into "Decapitation Mode", implying that they have all the abilities of the separate blades (including a dual scythe form and the ability to shrink to the size of normal scissors).
In episode 24, Ryūko finally reforms the original Rending Scissors after transforming Senketsu into Senketsu Kisaragi. The Scissor Blades were bolted together by a screw that appeared from thin air. In this form, they retain their ability to extend their blades, forming a pincer-like weapon called "Dual Decapitation Mode." However, due to Shinra-Koketsu "Absolute Submission", the weapon cannot damage it because it prevented any Life Fibers, including any weapon made of it, from damaging it. When Ragyō hit Ryūko with her final blow, the Rending Scissors are seen drifting towards space.
In episode 25, the Rending Scissor returned to Earth during Ryūko's near defeat. As it caught up to Ryūko during her fall, she grabbed on to it and used it to slow her descent and then proceeded to run up a wall. During her battle against the Honnōji Academy Final Defense Apparatus, she detached the Scissor Blades and then increased both scissors to a monstrous size, the left scissor referred to as Farewell Address Mode, right scissor as the Student Response Mode, or both scissors as Scissor Blades Alumni Mode, where, along with the remains of the S.S. Naked Sun, it destroyed the Honnōji Academy Final Defense Apparatus.
As the destroyed Honnō City sank into Tokyo Bay, both Scissors can be seen sinking along with it.Standard Tactics: Ryūko will use her Scissor Blade to primarily cut through her opponent. With Senketsu, she'll always transform with him, using her Scissor Blade alongside her various forms. Ryūko attempts to adapt to her opponent, finding out a counter to them as she fights. During Berserk, Ryūko has no sense in her and will attempt to only fight and kill brutally with no strategy. With Junketsu, she loses the abilities she has with Senketsu, so she primarily sword fights and can likely use energy beams like Satsuki. With Kisaragi, Ryūko attempts to go for the kill, but in the case she's too weak, she'll let herself get beaten down. This allows her to regenerate and grow back stronger from each near-death experience.
Weaknesses: Ryūko can be very hotheaded and brash at the start, though she learns to stop this overtime. Senketsu will be weakened and drain too much blood if Ryūko is embarrassed wearing him, however she later overcame this weakness. If Senketsu's Banshi threads are cut, he will be broken down, however he can always regenerate from this. If Ryūko gets too angry, she'll turn into her berserk form that will eventually kill her if she doesn't calm down. Senketsu will be lost if Ryūko absorbs too much Life Fibers in her Kisaragi form.
