Are Toei Executives Sexists?

vin13ish · 04-20-2016, 10:14 PM

When Zyuoh Whale is revealed to be Zyuoh Eagle's Another Form, I think most of fans are disappointed because they wanted Zyuoh Whale to be Zyuoh Shark's another form but she didn't get it.

It's no secret that Toei Executives have a lack of respect toward womens

Last Year's Ninninger have Kasumi didn't get her own Chozetsu form and Fuka didn't get a proper Chozetsu form!

Most of Kamen Rider Lead Heroines (Except Kiriko and Akari) are the damsel in distress like Princess Peach! It look like Kanon is playing damsel in distress because she doesn't do any useful at all!

It's unknown of what is Toei Executives' problem of respecting the womens.

Are Toei Executives a bunch of guys? If one of them was a female.... Then why would she agree with bunch of executives who doesn't know of to treat women with respects

Go ahead. Post your comments about me acting crazy but it's truth! Why would you defend Toei Executives if you don't know them?

Toei Executives need to realize that they are treating the Sentai womens as a fan service than a warrior that womens should be! Have they watch The Hunger Games? The Force Awakens? Jurassic World? Most of them have a female protagonist!

NO SIR! THIS WILL NOT STAND! I'm a feminist and I'm respect the womens! I hate a man who want to beat up their girlfriend!

The End

Not anymore sexist than the rest of Japan.

Plus it's a predominantly boy-oriented franchise. There aren't PreCure magical boys because PreCure is a predominantly girl-oriented franchise. This site hosts several men who like PreCure and a few ladies who like Rider and Sentai, and one guy who loves Ponies.

Peripheral demographics shouldn't be ignored, but they aren't going to be catered to like the target audience unless they prove a stable consumer base, i.e. like the Bronies. Sure little Japanese girls watch Toku, but more little Japanese boys do than girls and Toei will cater to the larger audience.

Plus Red always gets the better toys, even if other colors are equally worthy, like Sela the Best Shark.

No. They are not sexist, this is a show for BOYS IN JAPAN. Specifically ages 4-11. They usually focus on the red ranger as the last time they did multiple episodes with a female lead, the sales were abysmal. Not a lot of boys would like girls to be a main character in an episode, so they focus on thee boys. Life goes on. Also, work on:
Spelling
Grammar
Making everything cohesive.

I'm sorry it just I was angry that they don't respect the womens.

So much that I wanted to do a Fanfic about my own Super Sentai!

I would make the female lead the true protagonist as oppose to the red ranger!

The show is made for kids from 4-12 like everyone else said. Boys want to see the male characters that they like the most.

Red gets the most forms because he's the leader.

Red's a guy because most small boys identify more with a male.

I would just like to point out that Yamato, Zyuoh Eagle, isn't really the leader. The Zyuohgers don't really seem to have a leader.

He just got the power up because Reds sell. They always have, they always will. While basically everyone would've liked someone else to get the whale power up, this choice was made by business, not sexism.

Also, go check out Kakuranger, Timeranger, and Gekiranger, 3 Sentai with female leaders (Though Gekiranger's isn't as prominent), or Dairanger, a Sentai with only one female ranger, but is very vital and important to the plot.

Toei isn't sexist. They're just making the best business moves they can, and Bandai producing the toys that they know will sell best.

Or Jetman which features one of the few and possibly(?) only female commander.

Ran was the leader of Geki?

It depends on whether or not you count the Colon from Liveman as both a female and a commander (She seemed more like an assistant)

Yup. Shafu appointed her captain of the Gekirangers, but like I said, it wasn't as important a plot point in comparison to Tsuruhime or TimePink (It was kind of a case of Jan being too inexperienced and Retsu being too strict and too much of a perfectionist).
