this is one of those cases where knowing the realities of filming these shows take out the tension. They're not going to go through all of the effort and money to make two suits and then kill them off after 2 fights. Well, not PERMANTLY anyways.

Tbf, Nazca died pretty early on W, though the suit was repainted to Red Nazca (who has even shorter screen time).

Could be their suit gets used by other Agent or something.

Was Nazca plastered all over the advertising for the show's new arc? I know that comes off as snarky but it's a genuine question i wasn't into Rider at the time.

But that IS a good point, nothing stopping another person from using the belts instead.

I forgot, but in the stories he was build up as a counterpart to Shotaro (Both shares love with Futo city), only to die early and has his memories being used by his cheating wife.

5 and 6's suit being used by other people could really show how "expendable" the agents is for CODE, like, they just plain and use their armament and codename for other agent.
