If this bombs, which it won't cause it's dinosaurs, then they'll still do another series or 2, and work towards the 30th for Zyu and rest after it maybe if that doesn't bank like it should. All that stuff is set for generating profits without an issue.

Toei's doing fine, and Bandai Japan is fine as well. No one is "suffering" yet.

It's my own selfishness that wishes for the former, as someone who really enjoyed the ambitions that Kyuranger and LuPat had, despite the flaws both those shows have. Wouldn't it just be more exciting or cooler in the long run to see how Sentai would come back after being quiet for a while, like the the beginning of Heisei Riders or New Generation Ultraman? Well, it's just a fantasy in my head for now.

Again really a non-concern. That leaked list is over 4 years old. Pre-dates sales data, and any newer concepts, with only a few quick changes here and there. The original batch list ends as of the potential of a Marvelous mini, and this series. The new batch list is being kept top-secret. This was the cut off for other reasons and issues because of needing to restructure spots and how various other reasons.

New ideas are coming. This is more a tradition for new abroad owners and because dinosaurs do well. Let's see how the show does before casting doom and gloom. It may surprise ya.

Right now, the bigger issue is needing to restructure a different area that impacts all three companies.
