It's unlikely, but it makes me hopeful that they'll just buy the master license off of Hasbro and run the franchise themselves.

Japanese dubs of Power Rangers aren't anything new, but I'm flashing back to Dino Force Brave, which was a collaborative effort between Toei and South Korea to cash in on the popularity of Power Rangers Dino Force (the South Korean dub of Kyoryuger).

They talk of pushing Sentai globally, but it's something of a known fact that Power Rangers has slightly greater brand recognition than Sentai.

Could they do something like a spinoff of Power Rangers for the international distribution market? A Toei-produced "sequel" to Lost Galaxy or S.P.D. or RPM in the same manner as Dino Force Brave/Kyoryuger Brave? It's not the most farfetched thing one can conceive of, and it would allow them to go in a different direction than the Disney+ thing while capitalizing on the Power Rangers brand without violating their overall approach to Sentai. They might even recycle such elements for Sentai, thereby creating new villains and battles for sequels to Gingaman, or Dekaranger, or Go-Onger.

Just a thought.
