One thing to remember with ratings is that if someone says "Oh this episode only got 3.5%!" etc that is a total over all demographics.

at the end of the day Toei is only interested in the kid demographic of their ratings, the demographic that will buy the toys.

These figures are hard to get these days for more recent shows like kyoryuger and toqger but during Go-busters' run it hit really low with kids which started the whole sky is falling thing during its run.

Didn't help that one of the producers left the project without a reason given :P

at the end of the day sentai will only be cancelled/put on break if there are several failures in a row.

I think as it stands now...

Shinkenger - Good toys sales. Good ratings
Goseiger - Below average toy sales. Good ratings
Gokaiger - Good toy sales. Ratings started to drop
Go-busters - Below average toy sales. another big drop in ratings
Kyoryuger - High toy sales. Ratings dropping slightly below go-busters
ToQger - Ok toy sales. show isn't finished yet so you can't really comment on ratings but I think when i last checked there was another drop.


so yeah we havent had any huge drops in toy sales several years in a row in recent years so sentai isn't going to get the can anytime soon.
