Nothing on Hakubi. Does she even get her own Raise Buckle!?

[LevisNox]

I dig it, also i don't think we ever had a all white final form that good looking

We had some white forms, but they were all sparkling this though looks so clean and i fucking love it

Zero two was good, ultimate revice and now this Mmmmmmmm slick

On one hand:

• New Final Form weapon! Looks like a generic gunblade, sure, but I'm always glad to see a new Final Form weapon!
• Visually appealing to look at.
• Cool gimmick for the Raise Buckle.

On the other hand:

• Too much emphasis on the animal motif. Personally, I prefer to think of Geats as the Gun Rider instead of the Fox Rider.
• Maybe the thighs should've been black, not only the belly.

It might grow on me more when I see it in action, who knows?

Based on leaks, no.

He looks so good! First Reiwa final form that I immediately loved!

[Henshinmorph917]

Same here instant home run with this design

[DreadBringer]

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).

Oh, good find.

I think Geats IX is by far the best final from the Reiwa Rider era. The color scheme definitely helps and really embraces the nine-tailed fox motif. Even the name Geats IX is a rough-sounding wordplay of kitsune the way I see it.

I feel like it actually balances out the typical streamlined Base form derived aspect of Reiwa Final Forms with a bit more of the excessive and grandiose flourishes of Heisei Final Forms.
