Ryou was arrested and charged, but was found not guilty. After all, all she did was provide the brick and chain. There was very, very little evidence against her, and the wealthy Ryou family used their extensive resources and connections to afford their daughter some of the best lawyers Japan had to offer. She continued to hang around the Shimokitazawa music scene... but started giving Starry a wide berth after receiving a severe beating from Seika. Some even considered the murder allegations kinda "rock", but eventually it all faded away. They kept her distance from her, because they didn't want to be "next". She never saw decent success in music, and without Nijika, she found herself lost and aimless. She decided to go to university, but in the end, her best option was to adopt the peace and stability that a salaryman was willing to provide. She now quietly raises two children, whom she named after her old friends.
