Here we go with the "properly" stuff again
All we need is another new card to solve this problem:
FUTURE RELEASE
Normal Spell
Discard 1 card from your hand to the Graveyard. On your 2nd Standby Phase after this card's activation, you can select one unreleased card from your pocket and add it to your hand. (This card is considered properly released for the remainder of the duel.)
