The thing you have to realize is that canceling something as major as the Olympics is not as simple as waving a magic wand. For one, It's not up to Japan, it's up to the IOC to make that decision and It'd be a huge loss to cancel it, as a lot of investors and sponsors would not be happy as they sunk a lot of funds to make it happen. Even though the people say it should be cancelled, the people organizing it have no choice but to go through with it.
Just be happy it's not 5-6 weeks like it was last year and is only 3.

Dammit, I thought Toei learned to stop doing this stupid "Spring Vacation Gattai Special" nonsense! :mad:

They should have just done a cameo crossover like Zyuohger/Ghost and Kyuranger/EX-Aid as a B plot the the episodes' A plots. I didn't want to have to wait a whole fortnight to see Deadheat Burst Mach and I don't want to have to wait 5 weeks to see whatever awesome thing is going to happen in Saber Episode 44. They don't need to take over the SHT block for a whole hour to promote their movie and doing it before an Olympics hiatus is the worst timing! At least last year, we got the Kiramager Episode 1 and 2 Director's Cut as a consolation and that 5 week hiatus wasn't even something they could control. Now Toei are deliberately making the fans wait longer than we have to and that really ticks me off. In the words of Geartlinger's VA, "What an utter disappointment." :(

Not only that. Kikai Sentai Zenkaiger would lose 5 weeks (3 for the 2020 (2021) Tokyo Olympic Games Special Coverage-only if it will continue and not cancelling it, 1 for the "New Normal" marathon on the 1st week of November this year and another 1 for the 2021 year-end special on the 1st week of January 2022) and it would probably ended up in a cliffhanger, Kamen Rider Saber would probably have 46 Episodes and could probably also ended up in a cliffhanger or an unfinished story and the upcoming Kamen Rider Rider Revice would have its hiatus for the marathon on the 1st week of November and for the 2021 year-end special on the first week of January 2022. Toei and TV Asahi will never be the same again when it comes to schedule problems! The anniversaries are already ruined, unlike 10 years ago! Curse you, COVID-19 Pandemic!

Ah, I see, that makes sense. Thanks for clarifying. Here's hoping the current seasons are able to fare well amidst the break.

The Olympics is a massive, global event with dozens (if not hundreds) of huge corporate sponsors. Cancellation has nothing to do with the countries wanting The Olympics to go on as scheduled -- it has everything to do with companies trying to make back the millions of dollars they invested in the event, pandemic be damned.

The bright side is that the creators knew that there would be an interruption for The Olympics, unlike Covid, so they've likely planned their stories around an Olympic hiatus.

That's a bummer. No Zenkaiger for a month is gonna sting.

On the positive, at least it's not 2 months like last year.

At least it was timed with Saber, since we're pretty much entering the endgame with the recent episode.

Except the hiatus isn't next episode. We're getting 3 more episodes of Saber, the crossover and THEN 3 weeks hiatus.
