Yes, I also wrote earlier that Toei is doing everything possible to make Infinity Gavan a commercial success, even if the show itself fails. But still, it's worth remembering that Super Sentai is an iconic, long-running franchise with enormous cultural influence. And their failures are unattainable for most tokusatsu shows (KR doesn't count). Plus, I think some adult fans who've cooled off to tokusatsu but continued watching out of habit might use this as an excuse to stop watching. Basically, life is unpredictable, so it's best to hope for the best and prepare for the worst.
