I'm leaning towards this being the case.

Well, due to the fact something horrible happened in japan, we can rule out geats being a serious or dark show. I hope I am wrong but it is very unlikely we get anything dark or serious this year after the ex PM got assassinated in broad daylight

You just beat me to it with this post. But, although we have examples of Fourze and Ohrangers(if I am not mistaken?), it must be admitted that then the tragedies were much larger and affected so many people. That is, with all due respect and sympathy, is the murder of a politician so much that will hook the target audience of the show?

As said above me as well I'm not sure if this is a tragedy that will mean much to children, so it's hard to know how much they'll take this into account... certainly if the show was going to have a villainous politician as an antagonist or smth like that I could see that being removed, but I'm not sure if the whole show would need to be reworked if it does lean serious but has nothing to do with politics, politicians, or "realistic" violence Like I would not be shocked at all if some changes are made, but unless politicians were a big part of the show, I doubt this is a "scrap everything and start over" situation |

This is an interesting point, as we have had some series go more light hearted after serious tragedies. Though if we consider all cases sometimes this isn't the case, Ryuki for example was partly put into production as a reaction to 9/11 and that's quite a serious show with a lot of very dark themes. Zero-One's finale was produced a ways into the pandemic which affected the lives of kids in Japan quite dramtically, but the ending was quite serious and bleak at many points. So I'm not sure "tragedy = more light hearted rider" is a total rule by any means

Gotta say how it's a bit wild for a major event to happen and to immediately say "But how will this affect my children's tv show?" lol. Last edited by cosmicrescend0; 07-08-2022 at 02:45 PM.. |

I'm honestly ok with a lighter show as long as it's engaging

Idk how far along the show is to say it's early enough for rewrites or anything but yeah I think it's safe to say children are unaffected by this compared to covid and the 2011 earthquake but then again 9/11 was influential to Ryuki. That being said, whenever Abe was involved in the show, it was critically like with Build's anti military theming and I believe the Kamen Rider 1 movie's anti government undertones, so maybe this'll be ignored

It's Saturday. Hopefully this our last week with having to deal with rumors and the like, since next week is when toy listings (are theorized) to drop, the week after that being Battle Familia, and potenially the last week of month being the conference date.
That being said, before any more legitimate info starts trickling out, gotta ask: What's a rumor we've discussed that you wouldn't mind being true? Any last-minute hopes on what kind of show it'll be, regardless of the rumors we've heard? |

I have an average attitude to the rest of the rumors: nothing will disappoint or please. Except Beowulf... I'm not against the Vikings, but this is seriously not the most interesting story from Scandinavian/Germanic folklore and history. I want a show where I really care about the characters. It doesn’t have to be a tearful drama or a ruthless tragedy for this, just make them worry about them. Last edited by Mesnick; 07-09-2022 at 03:03 PM.. |
