Kamen Rider Wizard Episode 01 Ratings - Go-Busters Improves

TokuChris · 09-05-2012, 01:24 PM

The ratings for last weekend's premiere of Kamen Rider Wizard and the continuing Super Sentai Go-Busters have been revealed. While we didn't post it on the frontpage, there was a discussion in our Go-Busters Discussion Forum about how Go-Busters had achieved something that no other Super Sentai show before it had - six episodes below the 4% rating level.

We are pleased to tell you (if you're a Go-Busters fan) that Go-Busters has ended their streak - the last episode (Mission 28) scored a 4.4% rating.

Kamen Rider Wizard managed to premiere at an astonishing 7.1% - much higher than Kamen Rider Fourze ended on. Keep in mind, Kamen Rider OOO and Kamen Rider W/Double premiered in the 10% range, so Wizard has a ways to go to get the franchise back to where it's been.

At the current trend, Go-Busters is on pace to be the lowest rated/watched Super Sentai of all time. We will see how the second episode does for Kamen Rider Wizard.

Im telling you, Bandai is making a concerted effort to save this show. Its been boring and dreadful to watch up til now but these last 2 episodes have been serious game changers. Im loving where things are headed.

Love no. But I still like it enough to keep watching. I'll muscle though, I made it through Ninja Storm. .. With some mental scars, but still.

Not surprising Go-busters picked up when the new Kamen Rider started, we'll have to wait and see how it goes for here. The show has a lot of good ideas.. it just hasn't done anything with them up until now, it's been a real disappointment.

that's a darn shame, I've been Thoroughly enjoying Go-Busters.... but it is all about the Toy sales....and those are some pretty weak toys....

Sentai · 09-05-2012, 03:46 PM

Could one problem be that their starting at different times? Or is Go-Bust still going because it's longer than Kamen Rider?

Maybe if they started and ended them together, instead of broken like this, ratings would help.

Actually, this may be the greatest thing to happen to Go-Busters.
Lots of times when a high rated and popular show airs, the shows airing before and after get a mild increase in viewership.
I think something similar happened when TFA first aired, the cartoon block it was in had a spike in viewership.
