Honestly the DC Comics shows are pretty much Tokusatsu shows. I watch Flash, Arrow, and Legends of Tomorrow and they all remind me of like hour long Kamen Rider Shows. Hell, the Flash has as much Drama or more than Faiz did.
Though I think with Power Rangers not being as successful as it used to be is probably why. Though maybe if the movie is successful there might be more of reason to try to get more here.

I do agree that American superhero TV shows and movies are the closet thing that we have Toku shows and movies. Not to mention Tokusatsu just means "Special Effects" in Japan. Any movie and TV show in Japan with large use of special effects are consider to be Tokusatsu (Sci-Fi movies that are not Henshin heroes like The H-Man, Battle in Outer Space and Prophecies of Nostradamus are consider to be Toku films).

Captain Power could be also considered a toku too ?

Captain Power is a Canadian-American TV show. I would not call it Toku since I think Toku should be used for Japanese movies and TV shows (Power Rangers, VR Troopers, Masked Rider and Dragon Knight get a free pass for being adaptions).
From what I seen of Captain Power (The show is before my time), it does remind me a bit of Japanese toku heroes.
