Maybe once a new wave of action shows prove profitable once again, we could see some original toku series.

Yeah, back in the day mostly american original toku didn't work well because PR was more popular but now, is more likely to work in these days.

None was able to top Tattooed Teenage Alien Fighters from Beverly Hills. That was the peak of American Tokusatsu.

I miss more tokusatsu in Japan.

Is there a specific service which streams classic Godzilla? Will the upcoming HBO Max have classic Toho Godzilla?

I doubt it with Criterion owning the Showa movies. Sony still has the Godzilla movies from 1991-2004 and you can easily find them cheap as dirt.

I asked that question partly because I thought I had read something to the effect once. None of the more recent library lists for HBO Max confirm it, but there are at least one or two accounts which suggest that the Showa-Era Godzilla films by way of Criterion will be available, though exactly which I cannot say!

Anyone know where I can find the episodes of Demon Hunter Mitsurugi (English subbed)? I've had the torrent running for a while but unfortunately when the seeder is on, it doesn't connect (I don't have this issue with other torrents).

Thanks.

Should Hasbro make their own tokusatsu than PR ?

Saban did, and it turned out pretty good, so I don't see why not. Especially since BM shows that Hasbro has far more budget for such things.

Not sure where else to ask this, so I'll do it here.

I haven't really seen any threads where people discuss Toku anime at length, which I find a shame, because a couple of them are some of my favorite anime of all time.

So, would anyone be down for a thread similar to what Die and Fish do, but for Toku anime specifically? I'm not exactly great with words, but I figure I could give it a shot, maybe show atleast one person why it's worth checking other stuff out than the "Holy Trinity" of Toku, so to speak.

Or, nah, should I just keep that stuff in the "Other Toku You're Watching" thread, if we even have one of those?
