Also, sword weilders. Specifically ones who weild swords one-handed, where that is the leading side in a duel. And to the show's credit, not only do they slash with the Sonic Arrow one-handed, but almost consistently held it in the proper hand when doing so. (like Marika will use it right-handed because that's where her shoulder armour is, but Sigurd always held it in his left hand) Attention to detail was not forgotten

And for the record I think it goes great with Duke, especially in Dragonfruit Energy form.

It does, again because the colours help sell it as "belonging" there. But seriously by that point I didn't even pay attention. The gimmick of the gimmick line was called "Arms Change" yet the energy Riders never changed arms. I always asumed the weapons were the point of having different lock seeds to begin with, since that's what's printed on them.
