Context also matters, because unless they reiterate their goals every episode, the abundance of kids (And their parents) who tune in after the premiere likely won't catch that the robbers are doing what they're doing for a good cause.

Much like Bandai/Hasbro's reluctance on adapting ToQger due to their worries about whether their target demo is interested in trains, making LuPat just has too many possible risks involved.

I think the fact they are shooting down possibilities like that - something that's kinda huge for competitors as it gives them a greater idea of what to expect from your toyline the next year - suggests they might just be stopping adaptions soon.

Either way, I don't see typical PR lasting too much longer.

I believe in adaptation for EVERY FRIGGIN SENTAI on Earth, but I also understand why LuPat is being ignored.

The best possible way to get around it is to do some kind of pre-episode blurb or narration like what we've seen in the past be it in Ninja Storm or Samurai to keep the dialogue from being clunky and repetitive.

I do see an animated entry coming, but I also feel that something else is in play that we aren't privy to.

I get the feeling that Hasbro will attempt a completely original live-action entry, but I think the deciding factor is whether or not it will be co-produced by Toei, though this is just a theory on my part!

Hasbro will probably treat this like Transformers and do multiple stories across multiple mediums. It's just taking much longer than expected.
