This is for any movie or show that is meant to be a clear riff on the superhero genre. Since tokusatsu has typically leaned into superheroes, parodies have also been made of that as well and are definitely worth of inclusion here.
A large part of why this thread is being made is because of the release of a trailer for an upcoming French Superhero Comedy: Smoking Causes Coughing! Comparisons have already been made to Power Rangers, and it definitely could be seen as "tokusatsu-inspired". https://comicbook.com/movies/news/sm...ro-movie-ever/ Too campy for your tastes? The best thing since sliced bread? You decide! https://www.ign.com/videos/smoking-c...lusive-trailer Got another entry regarding superhero (and tokusatsu) parodies that you think are worth a look and would like to recommend to someone? Share here. Below: a still from the Smoking Causes Coughing trailer. |

Perhaps I'll mention this film: https://tokuzilla.net/watch/attack-o...t-teacher.html
Despite the obvious budget and the only feature in the title, he managed to be remembered for the fact that, despite all the absurdity, he is extremely real. I also had a girl in my class who constantly sold all sorts of shampoos and ointments, couples, a "whore" and an art-obsessed guy (which was me). So, although on the one hand the characters are a bunch of freaks, among which even aliens can easily get lost, in fact it is very easy to recognize people from everyday life in them. Yeah, and the song in the credits is pretty catchy. |

I recently found out about Ike Boys.
https://youtu.be/FAhvH1dJlYs I haven't found a place to watch it, but kind of wonder if its even worth tracking down.

While not really a parody, I highly recommend the series Tokusatsu Ga Ga Ga from 2019. A charming and earnest series about being an adult toku fan and what makes people fall in love with the genre in the first place
I remember the ending being a bit open ended, which is a shame because lead actress Fuka Koshiba seems to be incredibly busy with project after project non-stop

Who remembers Kamen Renaider with Takuya Kimura and Shingo Katori? It was the spoof of Ryuki which aired around that time.
