Why Super Sentai and Kamen Rider considered to be kid show?

[Burkion]

Project BM and Medicom RAH 1/6 figures. As well as Premium Rider belts and equipment etc.

Complete Selection, Premium Bandai. Check em out. $300 is cheap compared to what some items go for.

Faiz Gear is a very central part of the show and its price is staggering.

Those are not part of the toyline, those are bonuses that get made for others.

Hell, most of the time they get made a while after the show is off the air.

Exactly.:thumbs:

But my question in my original post and the point I was making has totally been disregarded. I never implied that it was wrong to watch and enjoy these shows.

You insist that it's "E" though, as if that means anything in Japan, which seems to me to be an attempt to refute everyone else who's saying that yes, it is a kids' show.

The response to the question: "Are Super Sentai and Kamen Rider kids' shows?" is a resounding "Yes!". No other qualifier is necessary. They are kids' shows, designed to be watched by kids. Attracting other audiences is a fortunate side-effect, nothing more.

We here in America cant seem to let kids have good stuff without dumbing it down and pretending some stuff just doesnt happen. When shows that do allow this stuff come around, they are normally cancled after one season.

perhaps, but there are still several noteworthy exceptions like Batman: The Animated Series, Avatar: The Last Airbender, and Teen Titans, that weren't dumbed down and were on the air for several years

But all got canceled before they could be finished.


Look to newer shows.
Green Lantern and Young Justice didnt treat their watchers like idiots. Had death, had lots of good stuff going for them. CANNED

..........except, you know, they don't all get cancelled.

Batman The Animated Series, Teen Titans and Avatar all played to the end.

So did Justice League, Superman the Animated Series, and Batman Beyond.

Attracting other audiences isn't a fortunate side-effect, is something that was planned, a marketing strategy for any other possible customers/consumers. See for example the upcoming Ressha Sentai Tokkyuger, it is a kid show, but now they are also targeting train enthusiasts too, or the current Kamen Rider Gaim, which tries to appeal to Gen Urobochi's fans too to boost sales (even if it is only for dvd/blu-ray sales).

Sometimes it is obvious who are the "secondary" target group, other times it isn't as obvious or even plainly said. Anyways, you can look about that stuff on the web, you can start by seeing the business model canvas to see an example of those strategies (it is the most easy business model to study, there are other more complex).

Those got cancelled because too many girls were watching :rolleyes2:

Also because Cartoon Network felt DC Nation was forced on them and would rather use the time slot for more of their own shows. But that's a different topic all together.

Finally someone who's making sense...
