Kinda glad that actual completed final form Mk. 9 has a distinct design.

Was disappointed before that Mk. 3 was a repainted base form, even though I acknowledge that there are people who'd appreciate it.

Geats has too much animal motif in general, not only the designs, but the DGP Rider names as well, while also even extending to the Riders' personality itself corresponding to their animal motif.

• Geats = "kitsune" without "ne", vocalize "ki" (becomes "gi").
• Tycoon = "taikun", anagram of "tanuki".
• Na-Go = close to "neko" (cat).
• Buffa = "buffalo" without "lo".
• PunkJack = Portmanteau of panpukin ("pumpkin") and jack o'lantern, with an extra "ku" in-between.
• Mary = "mary had a little lamb" (sheep motif).
• Shirowe = "shirokuma" (polar bear).
• Ginpen = "pengin" (penguin) flipped around.
• Keilow/Keiro = Portmanteau of "keiro" (respect for the aged day) and either "fukuro" (Japanese for owl) or anagram of the English "owl".
• Letter = "Yagi-san Yuubin" (two goats receiving letters from each other and eating them before they could read their contents). Also "yagi" in her surname being homophonous to mountain goat in Japanese.
• Nadge-Sparrow = Other than Sparrow, his civilian form's "suzu" surname is taken from "suzume" (tree sparrow).
• Lopo = "lobo" (Spanish/Portuguese for "wolf").
• Groovy = anagram of "bīguru", from "beagle".
• Hakubi = "hakubishin" (masked palm civet).
