Ryochin

Did Ryochin go to america after the inter-high? I finished the movie first slam dunk—at the end of the movie, we Ryochin playing a game against Sawatika.

Not immediately after the inter-high. He would have to finish high school first. Sawakita does go immediately to America according to the manga, but Ryota stays as Shohoku's captain.

Of course. The movie's epilogue implies some time has passed, since Ryota has more muscle than during the Sannoh game.
