Here's the thing, as far as Toku goes, its a very niche crowd. Stuff on Hulu or Netflix needs to appeal to a wider audience before it gets proper support for a release on such services.
Without a clear and large demand for the product, and when I mean large, I'm talking about a million or so solid viewership, only then will Toei or any other Japanese entertainment company bother with exporting their shows.
Think of Bandai Entertainment and why they ceased releasing DVDs in the States (oh the timing...), its because Bandai HQ probably felt that they weren't turning a profit with their products (I think Gundam was probably their flagship at the time) because while Gundam or Dragonball has its fans, it doesn't match up to the popularity of say...Ben 10 in terms of marketing. Did not help that Bandai HQ treated Bandai Entertainment US as a separate corporate entity which made licensing all the more complicated.
