Also, is there an event that happens in Japan near the end of Summer or somewhere in August or September that involves Yukata's like their New Year's events? Because if so, we're getting Yukata like versions of these characters: Ryu-Oh, Freya, and Apep.
    It might very well be 2 summer events... I can see the first 3 (Poseidon Boreas and Ignis) releasing for 1 month before the next set comes in (Metatron Gabriel Zeruel).

    I've taken a look at Ryu-oh's weapon in specific, which is fundamentally a candy apple, essentially a motif of Japan's summer festivals (as far as I know, I'm no expert). So possible conclusion: likely a summer festival event. Edit: Which I searched through the DMM twitter, it is indeed a summer festival event.

    As for which one? ... Beats me, I haven't immersed myself deep into Japanese culture at all. The best date guess I have is the "Awa Odori Matsuri" (translated Awa Dance Festival) during 12-15th August (the 3 yukata girls release at 23rd), but that seems unlikely to be the case for a couple of reasons. The more likely explanation is that this is more a generic summer festival event that isn't based off anything other than your typical anime summer festival. Edit: The DMM tweet doesn't specify what event it is modelled after, so I'm sticking to my second conclusion.

    The tweet(s) are here btw, I simply did a tweet search range including the event dates for the 3 yukata girls.
