Funimation do not have UK rights to Riddle Story of Devil so I doubt it'll be released under their label.

I think Riddle is one of the titles that we're not even sure if it will be released by AL or Universal.

Huhh, TIL. Universal could get a hold? That'd be good IMO..

Honestly, given how long ago it was released in NA, the less than stellar reviews & how the title's faded out within the anime community, I wholeheartedly believe a basic standard edition is the way to go, if at all (I could be wrong, could sell a ton of CE's ...just an outside the industry observation) , like what's happened with Castle Town.
I'm also under the assumption that the push backs are because AL have to make the discs themselves? (I think I read/heard that sometime ago?) which can't help ..

Grav & Lemon are correct - Newswire #106 – 29th May 2017 – All the Anime
 
The return of the summary post because why not. Might end up being good motivation for Anime Ltd.

G Gundam just been announced, happy but but a little annoyed as well considering how slow we are waiting for releases

As I have said before Nozomi are currently releasing about 90-95% Gundam, 5-10% everything else as opposed to AL releasing at least 1/3rd of the entire UK output.

And if you say thats no excuse pay heed that if Funimation were releasing Gundam in the US the releases would be about where AL are currently, maybe a bit further but not by much. Sentai would also be at a similar pace to AL.

That's all good and well but Anime Limited back in 2015 said they would have a release schedule similar pace to Nozomi that's on them. Now of course no one is expecting this now, but the gaps between releases in general are too big that's a fact. Of course I'm gonna wait due to the collection boxes plus wanna support the Gundam in the UK especially since Sunrise haven't been too keen regarding the sales in the UK market.
 
They've also announced a big lavish collected Gundam Wing set for December.

I feel bad pointing these things out cause I sound like a nagging partner "Next door has a luxury Wing set! Meanwhile, we're still in da UC!"

It wouldn't be quite so bad if the gaps between releases didn't feel like they were getting longer.
