Probably Kamen Rider sells better for them. Super Sentai is always a series for kids. Japan can get away with more content than what is allow on American TV. Having older fans tune in to watch the show does help ratings and toy sales, but kids are always the main audience for Super Sentai.

I doubt it as long if toys sell well. I think the low ratings over the years is likely with less people watching TV and Japan's low birth rates recently too. The older fans probably move on too.

If Super Sentai did end, I can see Saban paying Toei to make original suits and footage for them.

I have heard about for well over a decade is that Japans population as a whole has been shrinking for decades and less people are having kids. Less kids means less kids watching the shows and buying toys.

Ah, the low birth rate - that's a gold point.

People have DVR and the Internet, so people who don't wake up early can probably record episodes or find them on the web later. Merchandise sales are always the biggest thing for action kids shows. Both live action and animated shows in general.
