See, and this is a curious question here. I think the thing is, when it comes to Tokusatsu, the reason I entered it, is because it scratches a certain itch that I've had for the longest while. And also it has to do with how I grew up.
The thing is, I could really care less about drama's in general? Like no matter what country they're from, I don't really find myself engaging with them for two main reasons.
1. Tokusatsu shows like Ultraman, Garo, Sentai, Rider, Metal Hero, minor ones, they just scratch the itch of Superhero shows. See the thing is while mostly growing up, the live action hero shows I loved were Power Rangers. So that influenced me greatly and while I did enjoy the MCU as I got older, I still had a soft spot for what I thought were super cool live action heroes via Power Rangers. So the general Tokusatsu medium in general is built for exactly that purpose.
2. I've just grown out of the need of wanting to watch any kind of normal broadcast television show aside from the Food Network/Travel Channel. You see I wasn't a kid who could really go out often or hang out with friends outside school, allergies and stuff like asthma sort of made me a bit of a weak kid. Also didn't help on how like shackled I was to the house. So what's a kid or young teen to do on the weekends and summer, especially when dial-up internet is the best you've got back then, than to just watch television. I consumed a lot of shows, and I mean a lot, cartoons, sitcoms, drama's, tv movies, etc. I consumed so much that by the time 2008 came around, I was mostly just sticking to the Food Network/Travel Channel because normal television was just boring to me. So I'd like to say that's why I'm not too interested in drama shows of any kind and why I like Tokusatsu exclusively.
