If they release them in order, I would imagine a possible set of Kamen Rider 1971 is going to be very pricey. A show that is super long + licensing fees is not going to make it cheap.

I will selectively yet happily indulge in official KR releases. Anything to support Tokusatsu in the West.

Plus, even if subbing groups will shelve their releases (as they should) the internet never forgets. So if you really can't get the official release - you won’t miss out on anything. I'm in for an official release of Kamen Rider in the west; question is where they're starting though. Showa? Heisei? With Super Sentai, Shout started with the original version of Mighty Morphing Power Rangers, Zyuranger, so... will they release Kamen Rider Ryuki first because of Masked Rider Dragon Knight? Or Black RX because of Masked Rider? |

If this is happening, they'd better be as good as the Mill Creek Ultraman sets.

My dream is a full-service platform, new episodes dropped within seven days of Japanese airing, every old Showa and Heisei series slowly added, all Net Movies and theatrical films, some scholarly Ben Mankiewicz-style historical context, all with proper subtitles and viewing order. For that? I mean, $30/month would feel like a steal. |

Official DVD and Blu-ray releases would be good enough.

Multiple import sites are carrying their releases for a good price and if its DVD releases then region coding won’t be an issue either. Any PC can play those.

Or Black RX because of Masked Rider? I think it’s fairly likely we’ll start with either Kuuga or W. Bluefin’s been riding that Heisei Belt train and hasn’t so much has referenced Showa, so it’s clear what part of the franchise they’re banking on.

While I personally would love it if they started with Kuuga, I think it'd be best if they started with KR1, if only for the sake of completionism. And while it's not very likely, since they've yet to sub the Super Sentai movies, I would hope they'd at the very least sub the summer movies for each KR too.
...Actually, thinking of Kuuga, I'd hope that were it to get subbed, it'd have two different sub tracks. One with the Grongi translated the other without. |

I don't think they will do that because Dragon Knight and Masked Rider are pretty much forgotten by most people. I feel like the only people who remember Saban Masked Rider are Toku fans and hardcore 90s kids that remember every kids show on TV.
