E.Ryu is a shoto, all shotos are Ryu with a few different moves and properties. I've played Ken for ages, back when he really was a Ryu clone with a head sprite swap. The similarities don't begin to bother me. In fact I'm perfectly okay with SF4's shoto friendly roster. They all play differently enough to allow tactics to form. And E.Ryu has enough differences for me to pick him without thinking, "Oh well I should have been playing Ryu all along."
And thematically speaking, I dig the power trip. Classic Ryu is gay.
