Trying some positivity thread. What is a moment in any Toku shows that actually inspired, teaches you something, or even change your outlook?
One of the things that I can think of was in Go-Busters where Jin/BeetBuster states that he makes J to be quirky because he wanted J to have a flaw, as he sees that perfection is boring, having flaws makes things more interesting. And honestly it hits me in a good way. We all struggle to he so perfect, but deep down, accepting flaws is far better. Especially if you want to write characters, making them flawed is far more interesting than making them perfect, because you know being perfect would yield the Mary Sue comments. And seeing the flaws in people actually helps you accept and emphatizes them better. That is, well if you're emphatetic.

Almost every message in OOO is one that can be lived by. Wanting something isn't the same as being greedy, and it's okay to desire things. Reaching out for help isn't a bad thing.

Episode 26 of Kuuga. Went into it a lot in Fish’s thread but it’s a wonderful parable about respecting peoples’ troubles and giving them the space they need!

PR in general has alot of good lessons for kids. Some simple, some a bit more.
I think the one that stands out to me most is the moral/final moments in episode 12 of Zeo, "Instrument of Destruction." The entire time Skull is afraid of what his best friend will think of him, should Bulk discover that he's not only good at playing the piano, but that Skull really actually enjoys doing it as well(gotta keep your reputation as one of tough guys, afterall). And at the end it turns out that Bulk was not only impressed, but fully supports and embraces Skull. Ontop of being a great moment for the Duo, it gives a timeless lesson; Your real friends will fully support who you are, hobbies and interests included. |

Imo, mostly toku from the 80's and 90's had great lessons.

Kuuga: Being happy is a better thing to live a life, but doesn't mean people are forced to be happy - like it's ok to sulk.
Faiz, Drive: (not what to follow from a character, but what not to follow from a character though) Just because a species have a member that is utterly depraved, doesn't mean you can lump every single one member of that species as depraved as them. Ex-Aid: Behaving purely like being honest aren't necessarily the right thing. Build: Even if you do a mistake, doesn't necessarily mean you deserve to be demonized, as long as you have a clear effort and determination to make things right.

Tokusatsu Gagaga is a show based around things that Toku have taught us as kids while itself teaching us to be proud of who we are.
It surprisingly admonishes the treatment of parents who don't respect their children's desires. |

Talking of Build actually, there’s something very early on I like a lot.
Sento had a moral to what he was doing; a statement that guided him and made him a hero — “It’s not justice if you’re expecting a reward.” It’s the usual selflessness stuff; and one that works extremely well with Sento. ... but while Banjo ends up agreeing with it? He’s also very much of the opinion that Sento, amazing as he is, absolutely deserves to be praised and deserves a good life. And both of these statements are correct and co-exist. I love that so much.
