Kamen Rider Calibur?s future
 

Does everyone think KR Calibur would come back in future crossovers after Saber? I always thought of him/her as a dark rider.

They better bring him/her back for future crossovers and spin-offs like Kamen Rider Outsiders!

Will return if the suit is not taken apart for parts. But I don't see any reason for it to be anyone other than Sophia, unless it's about Calibur from the past/future.

Facepalm

Mei for sure. After all her hard work, she deserves to wield a Seiken Sword, any Seiken Sword!

Why is Ora here though?

100% Daichi Kamijo. He was one of the most effective wielders, and was also only one to have an upgrade.

Especially given that Daichi has a lot great thematic parallels with Touma as Calibur. He is the "dark" version of Brave Dragon as Calibur, but also similar to Touma in how he tried to stop the future events from happening (by tapping into the power of the books and accessing the Book of Logos). It didn't really make sense for him to get killed off so indiscriminately and given that he had the ability to revive before, he really should come back as Calibur.

On a side note, this might be just me, but I never really liked that they kept having Sophia become Calibur. Primarily because it creates a plot hole where there was no reason why she wasn't designated as a user in the past to avoid causing, well all the events in the show. It also didn't make too much sense thematically given that her becoming a dark version of Saber/Touma doesn't really work in any context. It was kind of like if Ryuga's deck was just handed to Yui or the ORE Journal boss to become Ryuga, which doesn't really make sense for anyone to use except for Dark Shinji. Similarly, (even though he was not the first user), Daichi felt like most understandable choice for Calibur. But that's just my opinion.

I don't think Sophia is the permanent host of Kurayami. Simply because, as the experience of previous owners shows, frequent use of the sword of darkness leads to the transition to the dark side (who would have thought?!). Therefore, she grabs the sword only in extreme cases, when the fate of the whole world is at stake. It's hard to say why they didn't think of this before, apparently none of the previous owners wanted to be bored at the base while the rest were fighting monsters.

Well just a thought on Ora, as you'll never know whether she'd become a rider or not. Even if she became an Another Rider instead like Swartz & Heure.

And I agree with Mei. I feel Mei could withstand Kurayami's powers somehow.

Didn't Yuri dispel that and that's how Sophia was able to use it? I remember him doing something to it in relation to her

Maybe, I don`t remember this.

It's amazing how much they want to see Mei as Calibur. I'd love to see her as a swordswoman too, but I don't think Kurayami fits Mei at all.
