why are they hiding older videos on the toei tokusatsu world
like most of gavan and winspector are just gone. wasnt this supposed to be like a free service and archive. i feel like i might be the first person to even notice this since i can't find anyone talking about it online

TOEI, unlike Tsubaraya, ARE JUST INCREDIBLY DUMB TOWARDS ANY *POTENTIAL * Western and worldwide audiences, as a fan, it really is heartbreaking, but hey ULTRAMAN GIVES A DAMN
|
It seems to be a rights issues with various companies

most of the shows on there that will eventually be made unavailable dont even have Alternative Methods to get them here. i assume that in japan everything is available at all times

This is why it's kind of a big deal when shows get re-aired. |

For real? Talk about incompetence this kinda is infuriating now that I think about it. Stuff like this really makes me think that either they really don't care, they are incompetent, or the way they set up their business is just overtly complicated.

It's almost as if Toei truly has no clue that these shows among others have an actual fanbase outside of Japan.

Maybe they’ve licensed the shows and had to take them down? Am I being deliriously optimistic??? :lol
I’m not sure where I heard it (probably somewhere on social media), but I think TTW is in part a sales tool for distributing screeners to potential international licensees. Gavan and Winspector are two of the most obvious contenders for potential US licensing. It’s not completely out of the realm of possibility that someone like Discotek licensed the rights and Toei blocked the series in North America in advance of a public announcement. |
