Final Gobuster and First three Kyoruger Ratings Report

Kiryu · 03-07-2013, 01:46 AM

It’s no secret that Tokumei Sentai Gobusters is one of the lowest rated Sentai shows in the franchise, but just how badly did it do as a whole? As reported by Rising Sun Tokusatsou, the rating reports from the last two episodes are out and they aren't good: with the last two episodes of the series receiving a 4.9% and 4.4% in viewers. That puts Gobusters as a whole at a viewership of approximately 4.0%!

But the downward trend continues into Kyoruger, with the first three episodes only scoring a 4.3%, 4.0%, and 3.2%.

Of course, Rising Sun’s usual source for these rating reports come from a different source, with their original source stomped out in a crackdown by Toei

These numbers may not be accurate but they seem to indicate that Super Sentai is in a downward slump, though weather or not this trend will continue for Kyoruger remains to be seen.

Welp, time to cancel Super Sentai and do a Gavan show.

Interesting. Wonder how the toy sales will do for Kyoryuger.

Zeo has a point. Ratings for shows like these don't honestly matter all that much, toy sales do. So we'll see how that goes.

That's disappointing. I had hoped Kyoryuger would inspire higher ratings.

So, when it comes to ratings, I'm a tad... ignorant on how they work. Is this on a scale of 1 to 10, or out of 100% or what? 4% sounds incredibly low no matter how you slice it, but I'm curious as to what the scale is.

I feel like Toei might push forward to the 40th anniversary and take it from there. Maybe retire it after that like they did for Kamen Rider for awhile. It's just a thought..

Yeah it's out of 100%. Figures are a bit dodgey though. There's probably only a few thousand people/TV owners that have a box linked to the station/ratings people. So out of their 100% (possibly 6000 or so TVs) only a small portion are watching. They then do some fancy maths stuff to try and work out the possible % for all TVs across Japan, giving you the 4% =]

Unfortunately the viewing figures don't matter much, it's as Zeo said, the Toy sales that do. Hopefully they're good.

I'd be curious to see what sort of figures Weekend kids shows do in the states and the UK though, just as a contrast.

Realy? Kyoryuger is that low? Then again, people are probably needing to get back into Sentai over the next few weeks as they are probably jaded after Go-Buster.

How is Wizard doing?
