It would be nice if it had a wider audience, since that would mean more legit releases on affordable platforms.
That said though, I don't really think that it's possible for tokusatsu to become mainstream in the United States. Most tokusatsu are relatively low budget shows aimed at young children and can be baffling for the uninitiated. |
Given that South Korea has already made K-dramas found a big audiences beyond Asia and got popular amongst non-Asian American demographic. Also the Chinese fantasy drama, Ice Fantasy has gotten popular amongst non-Asian audiences and that include K-drama fanbases. Ice Fantasy can be considered a toku because of the special effect used in the series. So yes, I think toku could gain more audiences beyond a niche audiences. One Korean Toku show, Legend Hero had been on Youtube with English subtitle for a while. But here's the saddest part, a lot of K-drama fans branch out to Taiwanese and Mainland Chinese drama, but they never branch out to K-toku like Legend Hero.
I don't understand how fans of K-drama and K-pop didn't branch out to K-toku. That's the thing that made me scratch my head. So here's the questions: How do we get western fans of Korean TV dramas, and fans of Ice Fantasy to branch out to Tokusatsu? How can South Korea make K-toku more attractive and appealing to K-drama fans so toku can gain more international acceptance? That's why I raised that issues and question on this thread: If Korean TV dramas are popular internationally, why is Toku not getting the same? It seem like Toku fandom and K-drama fandom don't interact with each other at all. I seem to be the only person that is both a toku fan and a K-drama fan. |
Most people i met underestimate tokusatsu because they think "transforming" is stupid especially mecha fights. They don't know that a lot of tokusatsu have cool story.

Judging by how they butchered super sentai already, I would rather have toku remain niche as americans have proven they cannot be trusted to handle japanese kids shows in any reasonable way.
