what does your family think of your love of Toku

Crown Athlete · 11-21-2012, 07:39 PM

My parents don't care because I'm an adult and it's my money & time. Rest of the family? No idea, don't associate with them.

Mother- Disinterested (but thinks I've stopped watching).
Father- Disinterested.
Sibling 1- Agrees that Power Rangers Samurai sucks (but lacks the background knowledge to fully understand my description of it).
Sibling 2- Disagrees with the fact that Power Rangers Samurai sucks.
Metaphorical Sibling- "Of course you got the idea from a Japanese children's TV show!"

Mum and Dad - Supportive as long as I don't overspend. Says this is far better than drinking and excessive partying.

Sister - Makes fun of me and uses gay jokes. However, even she admitted to liking Shinkenger a lot.

Aunt - Absolutely loved Shinkenger and has rewatched it more than I. Quite liked Fourze too. Makes fun of Samurai.

lol ^^^ sounds like my mom

My parents are generally supportive since they know I don't overspend (my dad likes comics and such in general anyway, and my mum teases me just by saying "you've bought ANOTHER red one"

). My brother is a big American toku fan so is usually quite interested (trying to get him into the original stuff slowly) and my girlfriend is completely supportive of it as well as she's a big anime fan.

I have it pretty good really

Amazing! How do you not overspend and still get to review so many good toys?

Picking and choosing

I only really get 1 or 2 "big" toys (e.g. a Figuart) a month and don't really spend much money on anything else (I don't drink so save a lot of money when I go out) so I usually have the funds to get what I really want.

They know about it. They don't really care.

DaiRiderRX · 11-24-2012, 05:44 AM

My dad is fully supportive, even though he's more of a kaiju guy (especially Gamera and Godzilla), but he watched power rangers and everything with me and my brothers when we were younger

my mom don't care, but she still supports the things i like

Little Bro:knows of tokusatsu but is too involved with videogames to watch, though he absolutely loves Kamen Rider W

rest of the family doesn't care, they know me as a transformer collector more than a fan of power rangers and tokusatsu
