Toei and Bandai like money, if they think doing something like build again will make money, then sure, they might do that

Oh, I don't know. In my opinion, if they want to Build again, they should just Build again. Call it Neo-Build or Build 2.0, make the protagonist a fan of Sento toys and spin the plot on penetration into the New World of elements of the old. And according to rumors (which, again, it's too early to believe), yes, we get a stripped-down version of Build with less interesting combinations.

Although we assumed in the discussion that perhaps "axe" would be the constant element in all combinations, while "wolf" would change. But then it's scary to imagine how many forms they will come up with to beat Build in sales.

Honestly the idea of a straight up sequel series does sound like it would be sort of entertaining imo. I could see that being very fun. Tho I think personally I would prefer something totally new, I wouldn't be against a sequel series as a concept.

There's no way they wouldn't just make Den-O/Gaim/Ex-Aid 2 if they could (or some other rider show that got milked to oblivion and back)

The rumor also has info about Revice/Donbros/Ultra, so this rumor'll gain weight if any of the non-Geats info turns up true. What do you think about this?

If the other rumor (The belt works like Saber/Gaim, where it has two parts (gimmick + decorative piece)) is true, then I can imagine the bracelets being our actual gimmick item and the buckles acting like the Sengoku Driver's faceplates.

The idea of a bracelet gimmick gets me excited, it feels somewhat non-Riderlike, like more of a Sentai thing? I can imagine the transformation poses looking really cool, having to transform with it. The theme is still a mystery, but "bracelet + buckles" is a slightly more solid jumping point for an investigation that "word that is most likely some kind of pun or portmanetau that we won't get until some kind of visual drops".

Now I?m curious if the Wolf and Axe stuff is real too or if it?s heading into a new direction

Interesting, the bracelet thing actually reminds me of the Wizard Rings but with the addition of the Gaim Faceplates as buckles so that the drivers don't all look the same during a group fight or transformation.
