Well, it's Ryuki's 20th anniversary (according to the SO-DO blog), so the subbed releases are maybe part of an overall attempt to boost Ryuki's visibility. I can see Toei "suggesting" that Ryuki get a subtitled release on Shout Factory's platform.

If anything, I'd hope that it'll finally mean Ryuki Seihou figures, but that's a comment for a different thread.

The twitter posts from Bandai gave me the impression that it was indeed related to the upcoming sub release. This SO-DO is also falling into the same year we are getting the Figure-Rise Standard kit as well. So it wouldn't be crazy to think some of these things are related.

After handling Saber and Gaim, I built a Zero-One figure and it felt so so old. By the time we finish all the SO-DO Chronicle line, the last figure will be a literal mini SHF. Well hopefully they go back and so some of the others that weren't in Chronicle like Decade and Ex-Aid.

Now if we could get SO-DO in regular distribution in the west (and for that $5 price too!) it would be the best toy line hands down.

If they do Chronicle Ex-Aid after I already bought the Shodo I don't know whether I would jump in joy or into the river.

Just watching the trailer I’m realising they straight up said “13 Kamen Riders. 13 Contract Monsters.” despite the blog specifying the TV show riders, so... interesting!

I imagine the three special riders would be PB with Ryuki Blank, then a second PB wave with Alternatives, Abyss and Ouja Blank. That rounds out perfectly!

I loaded up the blodg twenty minutes ago expecting, like, Gaim Apple Riders or Kuuga Rising Ultimate. And what I got... I'm as happy as all you are. All 13 Riders, all Contract Monsters (even if it's PB)? Amazing. Scissors the meme man himself in Wave 1? Outstanding.

Alright, this Ryuki stuff might've finally convinced me of how dang cool this SO-DO stuff has become. That all looks incredible.

Just wish I liked the scale more...
