Even though Super Sentai is a Japanese superhero programme but do you think that Super Sentai has the opportunity to educate International viewers and not just the Japanese viewers?

We've gotten official DVD releases of Zyuranger and Dairanger, so I think it's a moderate likelihood.
I doubt we'll get a concurrent release of a Sentai and a PR, since they'd basically be competing with themselves, though.

I think Sentai shows on Chruchyroll would be awesome if Saban and Toei are cool with it.

I'm fairly certain we'll at least get Kakuranger as well on DVD. Shout! Factory said that they're interested in doing the pre-Zyu series as well, so maybe Zyuranger sold SO well that they're confident in doing this for a while?

How funny would it be if a new Sentai, say Ninninger, was released on DVD before it turned into Power Rangers?

I wonder if we'll get the in suit teams on the covers if they so choose to do so. After all, since they wouldn't be suits a child would recognize and accidentally mistake for their favorite PR, there wouldn't be any fears. Or would it still feature the out of suit actors just to maintain consistency? Also, it'd be trippy to get Ninninger released on DVD in the states before it's PR adaptation was made.

If they do Goranger on DVD in the US, I would imagine it would be a pretty pricey set. It's 84 episodes long and would have a bigger box set then Zyuranger or Dairanger had.

Personally, I think it is entirely possible to get international viewers into Super Sentai as France had some seasons of 80s Sentai back in the day (Bioman and some of the following, if I remember correctly). Actually, I always wondered why we got Power Rangers in Europe in the first place, as they did translate and show original Japanese toku before (in Germany, we had the original Godzilla movies and Tokkei Winspector). These days however, we surely have the problem of the stigma around Power Rangers. Here in Germany, Power Rangers is a show that most people rather frown upon because it has an image of low-budget productions and bad acting. Of course people also consider it overly cheesy. Also, as we didn't get our own official DVD releases of Super Sentai along with the US, I think it might be harder for people to get into Super Sentai as some shows are not even available online anymore. I wish I could somehow change that, but that also depends on how well-received Ultraman X is on Crunchyroll with the European audience. It is surprisingly popular on the German Crunchyroll, but in relation to how few people watch live action drama in general, it's pretty uninteresiting for the majority. Toku will always have a hard time in Europe because of that negative stigma, I guess :/ |

Do you all think that it is also creative that characters for Sentai Rangers are Non-Japanese?
Here is an example: Mark Pangan Jr. The Red Sentai Ranger from the Philippines Last edited by RacingWolf7957; 12-07-2015 at 08:10 AM.. |
