Welp one thing for sure the team who handles Toei World is either bad or they are trying but the powers that be don't know what to do and they are taking the blame because of that. I hope it is the latter.

This don't seem to be any different from GundamInfo uploading Gundam shows for a limited time.

I'm sorry, I don't mean to offend anyone but I will at least take Toei Tokusatsu World over Shout Factory (as obscure as the shows they upload may be), mainly because I think it's quite safe to say by now that Shout Factory are not interested in bringing Sentai to other continents whereas what Toei upload they at least try to make it available!

I mean to be fair with the whole Sentai thing, I feel like that's a bigger can of worms?
Given well, I'm sure the issues stemmed from Hasbro taking over the reigns on Power Rangers. It's not exactly cut and dry I believe. |

Yeah I get it's not cut and dry but there are even things for example like, does Hasbro really need to own the rights to Metalder when it's not even them that made VR Troopers?!

I do have to wonder if PR adapting the Jiraiya and Gavan episodes also complicated anything...

From what I've heard, yeah. Basically anything they've adapted nowadays or was owned by Saban back in the day is in a real weird spot in trying to get an official release.

Oh, fantastic. So glad they had to adapt those episodes for no reason.

If we'd seen figure releases, that would be one thing, but we didn't. This isn't a situation like Black RX, Metalder, and B-Fighter where full series, and full toy lines, were released, so I wouldn't be super concerned. Toei may not have a clue what they're doing in the American market, but they know the value of their IPs, and they're not boneheaded enough to sign away the rights to Gavan, especially, for a two episode stint on Beast Morphers.
