If a toku was to be adapted in english whether in America or Canada, which toku(s) would you want the most to be?

And how would you plot it along with the characters and themes?

Since VR Troopers was adapted from some Metal Hero series' & Beetleborgs.... how about........

ex.
- Chou Seishin Series: Gransazers, Justirisers & Sazer X
- Madan Senki Ryukendo
- Tomica Hero: Rescue Force & Rescue Fire
- Ultraman: Tiga, Nexus
- GARO - as a drama series for young adults. Like (The Vampire Diaries, Grimm, Once Upon a Time & Teen Wolf)

Tiga actually got a US dub in the early 2000s. 4Kids did it, so you know it was quality.

You've never seen Garo, have you?

[henshinzero]

I've seen Garo, but I just an adapted GARO for an audience of teenagers & adults (young & old)! But NO nudity!

And what of the Chou Seishin series?

No offense, but I personally would rather watch MMPR on Realplayer than water down GARO like that. A dub on Adult Swim? That I would not mind.

On a side note, I would like to see Rescue Force.

AS would edit it. They find amazing ways to ruin almost anything, and if I could afford Bleach DVD's I wouldn't watch the damn block at all. Enough with Family Guy and American Dad. I used to love his shows but I've had about all of Seth McFarlane as I can take.

What I would enjoy is IFC or Sundance Channel (Who don't edit things for content) getting a hold of Garo and showing the whole series. Garo, or even Kamen Rider. Start that from the beginning and dub every episode from every series.

I'm pretty sure Adult Swim would not just edit it, but make it a joke dub. Kouga would probably be some kind of Weed Knight who uses his bong sword to battle the farting Poopbutts.

You can't really bring Garo over like any other kind of tokusatsu. The armor scenes in the average episode are too short to create much workable footage. It would end up like all those scenes in Masked Rider where you can clearly see Tetsuo Kurata or ZO.

Honestly, if Garo ever came to the US I'd want it to be subbed, not dubbed. I like your IFC or Sundance idea, because I know those stations would probably do that.

They've done it before with movies, I don't see them changing it for Garo. Let's hope they follow our advice

Remember when Toonami brought over Tenchi and actively advertised it as an action series?
I wonder if they'd bring over Garo with that kind of bait and switch.

They will have to rewrite GARO completely in their own language for localization.
Chop suey clip show won't work because it is a show heavily based on supplementaries. Unless they are going to translate and release all the books it will be hopeless to introduce the world as a whole. Standalone series is meaningless.

Rescue Heroes on the other hand may work because it is more on the product driven template show.
Chouseishin series will be on the cult toku section. Not everybody can take it after watching all the Toei format shows.

I say if it was the team behind smallville or the Spartacus TV show. Spartacus team would work due to how the made the show for late night tv and some mild nutity I think it could work just the right team needs it
