Rye-you. Also, you should add Guile. I say Guilly and some people say Guy-il.
Frankie G
Ree-you.

I just say it how you'd say it in Japanese. De-emphasize the 'ee' sound, and go straight to the 'yu'.

emot-eng101.gif It's pronounced "Reh-eeooo"

Is it really? No, but the smiley convinces you otherwise.

I say it the way the spelling dictates.

ryu = ri + yu

I know it's Ree-yu but I've been saying Rye-yu (rye like the bread) since I was like six and it's hard to shake.

I pronounce Guile as guy-ill. Well, not like "Guy ill", much faster than that, u no wut m sayin
Loveless Aardvark
Rye-oo

If I was in Japanland I would say ree-oo.

And Guile is pronounced "gile," like the word "guile". Anyone saying anything different is a half-wit.
