I didn't mark off Faiz because while SHODO has done it, it released Faiz back in 2018. Which, if you can believe it, was 3 years ago!

The thing is is that if someone wants to get Faiz, well; he's not on store shelves and it's a bit difficult to find him on the aftermarket -- and the only recent release from the season is, uh, Riotrooper. So SHODO isn't really competition here. The likes of Agito and Blade have much more recent prominent releases that I could see SO-DO not wanting to compete there, but Faiz is pretty much done and dusted for SHODO. Also, 555 according to multiple Japanese polls is extremely popular, and even moreso; there's only 8 actual Rider suits including the two from the movie -- so you can do it all in two waves and appeal to a lot of people!

The thing that marks Ryuki off for me is, well, the SO-DO people are passionate enough that I think they'd refuse to do it if they couldn't do Mirror Monsters. And that doesn't seem too feasible for how SO-DO does things.

I do still think it'll be Fourze or Drive, though. ZERO competition there and it jibes with what SO-DO tends to do.
