I was just wondering, what can you say about the success of Dragon Knight in Japan asides that it has its own toyline made by a toy manufacturing company, Max Factory, have its own [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MoE183jdxFE&feature=player_embedded"]Japanese opening theme[/ame], which is akin to the newer Japanese Kamen Rider shows and a novel sequel?

UkiyaSeed, thank you for letting me know about the sequel novel! That is insane! I had no idea! Damn, now I want to read it and see what they did.

I am just blown away by the show's popularity in Japan. I think it is the most bizarre irony that we had no success here with our all-American version, but that the Japanese fans love a show that's a reworking of something they saw only 4 or 5 years before. Weird, but I love it.
