I know Levy and Brown haven't been involved for years, but I also know that for some, it might not matter, and this franchise can't afford mass-defections.
Saban kept this franchise going and, if Brown is correct, might have covered-up a crime to make kids happy and himself richer!
Will the Rangerverse continue? Yes! But in what capacity? Will Saban and Levy make money off potential royalties, even if they don't deserve them? Hope not, especially if Brown is correct!

Yes, Cancel culture is a thing, but Power Rangers isn't the type of show that will suffer from it.
We had actors committing murder
we had on-set homophobia
We had an actor stealing from sick children
None of those things derailed peoples perspective of this show, so what makes you think this will.

That being said, Given the Accusations she's made against Levy, and the Evidence she Presented to back up said allegations, I Wholeheartedly believe this needs to be spread, so that he can be Tried for what he not only put her through, but based on what she said, others as well. Sarah's not the only victim here, and that's what scariest to me.
If anyone at TokuNation proper sees this, feel free to contact me.

You stated previously that even you did not condone "#BoycottPowerRangers", so what effect would this or should this have on the OG Saban Era?

There is a certain amount of apathy regarding this story! I don't know why so many say it doesn't matter and why so many won't report it.
This has been weighing heavily on my mind since I first saw it. It's bothered close family cause I got myself worked-up about it.
Honestly, I've viewed Brown as a malevolent force who wants to rip-out my heart and soul! On some level, I think she's succeeded. I don't mean to take away from her suffering, but she tried to win by attacking something I've cared about for years.
I have no idea where to put the Saban Era and Neo-Saban Era in this now! Levy wasn't involved with the Neo-Saban Era, and Saban was only back in it for the money!
That's part of the reason why this story isn't circulating: we've seen and heard misdeeds in the past. Saban has little support from the fandom for various reasons: his greed, his politics, his behavior, etc. That and the fact that various franchise actors and crew have committed their own misdeeds over the years.
If Sarah had said something a year or two ago, during Ninja Steel/Super Ninja Steel, this would have been a different story with a different effect! Instead, she waited 20+ Years to make a statement.
I do want something positive to come out of this, but I also desperately want this to come to a decidedly quick conclusion. Sadly, I learned about this story on a site that doesn't care, when there are other sites that haven't said A SINGLE WORD!!!
If Sarah was hoping people would stop supporting the franchise, that isn't gonna happen! Some might, but not everyone. We are only in the beginning of the Hasbro Era, and the franchise cannot succeed unless it makes Hasbro some legitimate cash. If Sarah was hoping that people would stop buying Ranger figures as a way to get back at Saban, that might have an effect on Saban's bottom line and his legacy, but it would also have a reciprocal effect on Hasbro's more, and that goes way too far! In addition, the Lighting Collection just has too much support given how much better it is from the old Bandai Legacy Collection!
Same could be said for the BOOM! Comics, as they have just have too much support and they are good enough to keep going forward with.
Shade over Saban and Levy will have to come another way, not by demonizing the franchise. Sorry Sarah.
That being said, there will be some mixed feelings since Saban and Levy were involved with the franchise until the early 2000s.
If I had a say in the issue, a formal statement should be released by Hasbro and various Ranger actors. Any sales regarding the OG Saban Era (such as DVD sales) should go to Hasbro, select charities in an effort to make amends, and Sarah. Saban and Levy should be barred from receiving royalties! Tall order, to be sure, but not an impossible one either.
Regardless of how people feel about the story, bare this in mind: FOR ONCE, SILENCE IS NOT GOLDEN!!!!!!
