So far, Go-Busters has been a disappointment to Toei in terms of sales and ratings.

The recent press conference about next years' show added this comment-

Quote:

Additionally, according to reports, with the low sales of the Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters related merchandise, Bandai called the show "dark", and suggested that Kyoryuger will be "lighter" yet "strong", and have a more fun atmosphere.

And I strongly disagree; Go-Busters is no darker in tone than a few other successful shows. But could there be an aspect of truth in Toei's words?

Whatever the reason, we won't have Toei try anything new with Super Sentai for a LONG time as a result of Go-Busters failing.
