There are a lot of good things that kids can learn, like teamwork is important, we should learn to forgive, etc. But I notice that Toku shows always use violence when the one that doing bad things is a monster. I know, they're monsters and most of them are trying to destroy the world so it's fine to use violence no matter what bad things they do. But I'm afraid kids might get things wrong. First, I'm afraid kids might use violent to whoever they don't like without trying to think another way to solve their problems. Second, kids will think that the actions and the weapons are cool, I'm afraid that kids will try to demonstrate it because they think whatever the heroes do are right and they wanted to be like them. I think that's a bad thing for them and also dangerous. Because of this I always try to avoid them to watch this kind of shows until they understand what they shouldn't do and what they should.
As I said, that will depend on your kid's psychology. If you bother to read my post, I said it that my 7 year old niece had no problem watching Zyuranger and Ultra Seven.
My niece and her friends are smart enough to know that the characters are fictional and don't imitate whatever they saw. I don't know what up with your kids, but you realize not all young kid think that way.
So I understand it's your opinion, but could you elaborate why would you think all kids shouldn't watch tokusatsu since my niece and her friends are proof that toku don't screw up kid's mind or their reality.

I do believe that some Toku shows are too extreme for kids and many should wait before seeing the more serious material, but not all Toku (including but not limited to P.R.) falls under a "one-size-fits-all" banner!
I also recommend the "Ultimate Visual History" for P.R., more specifically Pages 17 & 38.
I apologize for the low-quality.
You don't have to apologize for the low quality. The picture attachment you uploaded are in clear and pristine condition.
Also I'm aware of Power Ranger drawing parent backlash, but that's in the past. I'm talking about today. Now because of streaming websites, DVDs, and blu-ray are advanced technology compared to what the 90's and Power Ranger had back then, and now because of original content from Japan getting subtitled release (ie: like in the case of Super Sentai getting release by Shout! Factory, and Juspion getting release in the US for the first time) along with foreign-language children program getting subtitled stream/release, and the fact that studies have now acknowledged that subtitles and closed caption can help increase children's reading/literary skill.
That's why this topic is created for, to have a debate about if introducing our children to tokusatsu show is good and beneficial for them when it comes to enhance their reading skill. Also to see how do we approach introducing these shows to our children.
As I said, my 7 year old niece and her friends had no problem watching Zyuranger with English subtitles.
