>>10665274Even as a Tokusatsu side-helping it was a bit of a stretch. I could see the potential but seeing as how they were trying to do a brand new type of thing that hadn't been done before there was a far greater chance for failure. Unfortunately that's just how it goes in the media industry.
They want to sell the toys. That's that main thing. But they also want to sell you a Kamen rider-esque show with female protagonists and it just became too confusing to properly digest.
Female Protag: "Oh this is how you use a nipper."
Audience: "Is this show supposed to be for model kit people? What am I looking at here? But it was tokusatsu show a minute ago..."
Nevermind that most tokusatsu series look like bad costumed porno.
Also, the target demographic? Adults. Here's some big eyed Megaman bitches we want to sell your thirty year old ass.
