I'd like to think that Okiya is Shuichi Akai do to the fact that their making it way to obvious that he is Bourbon. Do to the information gathered though you would make the assumption that he is Bourbon do to the fact that even before he met Conan, he was living nearby Dr. Agasa's house, probably do to the fact that he was keeping an eye on Haibara. Also Haibara also has here "BO Sense" around him. Haibara's "BO Sense" hasn't seemed to be wrong yet so why start now? The fact that he ask Dr. Agasa to stay at his house also supports the idea that he wants to continue to spy on Haibara. His keen intelligence and suspicious behavior around Conan also points to that fact that he is Bourbon.
"Too obvious" arguments are weak. Pretty sure they've been used for all the permutations of the Okiya/Akai/Bourbon theories by now. In fact, I'm sure there are some who will proclaim it predictable and obvious no matter which way it goes. (Waves at Kor.)

Quite true, I'd just prefer for a more surprising twist that nobody saw coming but also makes sense.

All what you say maybe true but it could be too much of a coincidence.  :)

Nope. If Okiya isn't Akai, then I will be surprised.
You should stop with this stuff, though. It doesn't contribute to this forum.

I didn't expect maturity from you, Nyarl, but even that surprised me. You're older than you act--time to start showing it.

What's the point in even discussing Okiya anymore anyways. Chekhov has solved his mystery already. What a genius that girl is!

Edited: Sorry, Chekhov!

OT: I think it's amusing that on the internet, the default assumption is that everyone is a guy. I do this too, so I'm not saying anything against anyone, it's just interesting to me. I also assume everyone is gorgeous?

Maybe you're right about  Subaru Okiya being Shuuchi Akai. :)

Let me ask do you think its possible that Akai Double is Bourbon.
He could have plastic surgery.  >:D

If "Akai double" is this guy ---> Image, yes most people who think Okiya is Akai think scar Akai is Bourbon. I've pretty much flogged the topic to death on page 18 or so the Bourbon thread.
