1 - Kojima word/opinions about Metal Gear canon means shit right now because he out of Konami and the franchise.

2-  Rising doesnt contradict anything from past games, in fact, it has more respect for the lore than The Phantom Fail

3-  KONAMI'S OFFICIAL JAPANASE Metal Gear Rising website has a timeline with MGR on it as a direct continuation of Metal Gear Solid 4 and new chapter of the Raiden Saga.

4. Konami has the final say what is canon or not, not the fans.

5- MGSV was awful and only the most idiotic Kojima supporters would defend that trash
