Power Rangers has legacy. Space Sherrif Skyfire is unproven, and will likely only get one shot to prove itself towards audiences. If it isn't well received, then that's it. No more Sekai Ninja Jiraiya. Discotek or whoever else wants to try and pick up Metal Heroes can look at that and go "Hmm, unlike Juspion (Brazil loved it), Metalder, B Fighter Kabuto, etc., this failed to leave even a small impression on people in the States, it'd be a waste of money to make a deal with Toei for it" because that's how business works

And besides that, as I mentioned, there are no actual quality DVD releases of Jiraiya, and you'd be joking if you said that they would come out in the US before they did in Japan. If that does happen, then it'll be in like 7 years and nobody will care about Ninja Steel anymore. What you're saying is, quite frankly, completely ridiculous.

With that statement you're implying that that a potential Jiraiya release would be marketed entirely around "that one guy that showed up in ninja steel", which is absolutely ridiculous.

Except that you're misunderstanding what I mean by that, it's not that a potential Jiraiya release would get marketed as "HEY THAT GUY FROM NINJA STEEL" but rather that the Ninja Steel episode gets looked back on to see how the reception was, were people interested? Did people think "Hey, I'd like to see more!"? Or did they not care or hate him? That's how business rolls in that manner, especially as there's a chance the reason they're adapting the episode is to try and get Metal Heroes to become a thing as the upcoming Beast Morphers is Go Busters, which had 2 Gavan episodes in them
And again that is IF Jiraiya ever gets a DVD release. Again, if a release would happen, it would be years after a release of Jiraiya on DVD in Japan, which is not looking likely to happen, even with the cameo in Ninninger. Actually now that I think about it everything you said can also be applied directly to the original episode, and even more accurately. Anyway, the only thing I'm seeing here is purism and whining about like, literal children seeing Jiraiya on TV and not going "Oh my god its that obscure character from a dead franchise that aired during the 80s". This kind of thing is a major problem in this community as a whole, and you ain't helping with my opinion on that like this. |

That's... not really how that works? Mostly in regards to these toku releases, I mean. If a Jiraiya release ever happens, then it will be aimed at the people who actually know who Jiraiya is. There's a reason why the Sentai DVDs are so expensive, because they expect low sales because the market is very, very small in North America.

It's clear both of us won't budge on this

I think that's a bit of an overreaction and exaggeration when a single person left one line saying they weren't looking forward to this
