Minus Sekina, that's a mix of Kingdom Hearts and Yu-Gi-Oh! casting. Plus Ebina and Shikiji from Yu-Gi-Oh! I like Akiko's design the most.

The seiyu for Shotaro, Philip, and Ryu, are the same ones they used on the Memory of Heroez PS4 game, which was released in 2020.

Dissapointing they didn't get anybody from the original show but it was largely expected that they would get the MoH VAs instead.

Just realized Mikako Komatsu also voiced Akiko in Memory of Heroez in a short scene, though only her voice is heard, Akiko doesn't appear physically. LOL, so basically MOH was a practice run of short for this anime.

I think most people expected they'd get the MoH VA's, but I think they did a solid job capturing the characters in the game so I can live with that.

The only issue with the trailer, which looks like W in animated form, is no Kamen Rider W. I want to see what W looks like animated.

I'll need somebody to do fanart for this but...

The seiyuu playing Shotaro and Philip dub for Shang Chi and Druig (Eternals) in the MCU!

the fact that Philip and Shotaro are being played by the seiyuu of Rean and Gaius from Trails of Cold Steel is hilarious

I totally forgot that there was a sequel manga that was released, and never knew an anime was being made!?

Just out of curiosity though, i'm assuming this takes place before some of the other films that the Kamen Rider W series had?

It's a canon sequel set after the Kamen Rider Accel V-Cinema, but before Ryu's appearance in Drive. It's also written by Riku Sanjo, the main writer of the original series, so the style and aesthetic of the series is intact.

Its set after the events of show + movies.
Its also written by one of the writers on show iirc.
