Kamen Rider: Dragon Knight - The Official Thread

[Wheatley]

a majority of the free world is unaware it exists.

*clears throat*

did you know that KRDK is HUGE in South America and Latin America?

You think that only the internet knows about this show. Well this will prove you wrong.

Doesn't exactly mean it has any kind of mainstream presence.

Um, hi, the show is made in America. OF COURSE it matters.

PR is still pretty popular in Europe, but that has no bearing on Disney's decisions with the show. So why would Brazil liking Dragon Knight mean anything? It's not like this is the first time a show was more popular in another country than it was in its own.

You want it to become Hanna Montana or something? It's obviously not going to be a big hit from the start but it is more successful than Masked Rider.

Really? Tell me then why did Jetix Europe help create RPM?

Fact is KRDK has been doing good in America. The only reason it has been lackluster in ratings is because 4Kids is a lackluster company to be quite honest.

Yu-Gi-Oh 5D's ratings prove it but half of you don't even look at other show ratings. That proves the bigger problem lies with 4Kids itself.

I'm not sure how to answer, as I don't get what it has to do with anything.

Because Disney didn't want to, but they were obligated to make the season anyway, so Jetix Europe pitched in BECAUSE IT IS STILL POPULAR IN EUROPE. They're not obligated to make a Shinkenger adaptation, which is why we're not getting one, despite the fact that Jetix/DXD Europe is probably more than willing to foot the bill for it.

The only reason why we aren't getting a Shinkenger adaptations is because Disney said no. Even if Jetix Euro wanted it. Disney smartly made RPM's chances of successes dismal so they wouldn't have to do anymore adaptions.

Like it or not, Kamen Rider is the only American adaptations you can look for now. I wouldn't be hating on it.
