I would absolutely love to see Kaito get the pick...I'm less optimistic though because A) we don't know yet what our choice will be for, B) the Kaito were sort of just given a major job directly by Tsukune, and C) I don't know whether too many of the "top players" attending Winter Court are Kaito supporters.
On another note, I'm curious about Toturi's plans to bolster the Imperial Legions. Maybe this time around, instead of building an army of ronin for when everything hits the fan, we'll have him just leading the Imperial Legions instead? Or...if things go super dark, what if Sotorii ends up taking the throne and ronins Toturi along with everyone in the legions who support Toturi/Daisetsu? And so we still get a Toturi's Army, but it's technically the "true" imperial legions fighting to put the rightful heir on the throne?
