We've seen Tokusatsu adapted in America - in the forms of Power Rangers, Beetleborgs & VR Troopers.
But how would we create our own Tokusatsu in Canada or America? |

After the popularity of shows like Supergirl, Arrow, and Flash, I'd assume an honest to goodness cross between a toku hero and a general superhero drama would be the way to go.

If only there was a way to create something "Power Rangers-like" & "Kamen Rider-like".

What? It's easy to make something "Kamen Rider-like."
Hell, take Ghost Rider. Receives his powers from his very enemy, stories tend to focus on the character's struggles rather than his heroics (But not sidelining said heroics), and he...Rides a bike. It's not 100% perfect (No suit, is magical in a series that is about 90% technological, etc), but I'm just saying that it's not impossible to create a series similar to Kamen Rider.

I didn't wanna use someone like Joe as an example since he was developed by a Japanese company, where parodies like Joe are a lot more common and more people would get them.

We already do. Comic book movies/series, Sci-fi and fantasy. It's all toku by definition.
