To quench my thirst for toku games I played the Wii Kamen Rider Super Climax heroes. Far from being a good game, it's fun with a good amount of riders up to Wizard.
I also played Kamen Rider Battride War Genesis, the game that fried mymy PS3. Again, not a particularly good game, but it's amazing the level of detail it has, it have a shitton amount of riders, most of them with their original seiyu, the riding gimmicks and movements are cool. Out of all the musous I played, batride war is among my favorites and I consider it as good because each Rider haver a cool gimmick to play with which at least gives you a sense of playing different characters unlike most musous.
Finally, there's that power ranger fighting game coming soon, but it's more "Tommy rapes everyone: the game".

It's weird because I'm getting a similar effect. The more I thought about it the more I remembered things I liked about it. I still don't think the card gimmick is completely realized and doesn't work as well as something like Ryuki, nor are the themes as deep as something like Faiz, but it takes a lot of things previous Heisei Riders did and just does them again but with really nice directing, sets, and designs. Plus the ending really was well done which is rare in most of the series.
>Everything else fell apart after that, at one point or another
I think Den-O was really solid all around and did the "feelsy" parts just right. About the most negative thing I can say about it is that it was the start of when Kamen Rider started to be aimed more at kids, but before that it was a nice, light hearted change to the series that still kept a lot of the themes and did it with a very likable cast. It also tackled some deep subject matter really well.
Fourze was also really damn good and is still the only rider that I think hits that perfect mix of live action with some exaggerated action and comedy. I thought I'd hate it the most just because Gentaro looked like a goof and the suit looked terrible to me, but it definitely ended up being one of my favorites
but yeah, aside from those I'd say you're right. Most of the other riders either felt like a different show completely, or a bad live action anime. I did enjoy Ex-Aid though.
038604 No.16353578
>>16353468
In defense of both Den-O and Fourze, I don't think the "happily ever after" were forced onto either as both were fairly light hearted from the get go in contrast to earlier series. Neither had the slight horror them that was in kuuga-blade, also, fourze definitely had the focus on selling toys that other phase 2 riders had, but I think the director managed to do a good job at keeping them backseat to the story.

Yeah, you can notice that trend. Hopefully, after decade they toned it down a bit. The problem with most riders now is that they are literally toy merch, and they seem to cater more towards kids, instead of being family shows. I think the trend started with Den-O being a literal fodder for toys and being catered more towards kids compared to, say, Kabuto.

Oh there's no doubt Den-O was where they got the idea mind you, I loved Den-O, but the problem is that the direction they took phase 2 has done insanely well financially compared to phase 1, so it's hard to complain to much as they definitely are getting better financial results by catering to young children instead of making it a family show. It was also nice of them to give us Amazons when they had no financially beneficial reason to give it to us, it was more of just a love letter to people who liked phase 1 and also had some love for showa.

The first live action Guyver movie actually had fighting directors. One wanted the movie to be close to the books with gritty atmosphere and the violence. The other wanted to make it a comedy. That's why it has someone doing stupid shit for a laugh with sound effects, before suddenly Sean rips a guy's arm off and snaps his neck.
Thankfully, he had full power over the sequel, Dark Hero, and it was fantastic with tons of nods and even directly ripped scenes from the books (specifically the guyver inside the ship).

Zyuranger is absolutely worth a look, if only to see how Power Rangers changed it. Bandora is always fun and has a solid backstory compared to Rita Repulsa
Gokaiger is great but should be watched after seeing a few of the others as it's a celebration of its predecessors. If I were to have complaints, it's that the 6th ranger is a little too OP and the final villain is uninteresting, having been inserted to replace the bumbling but likable prince

With the issues of CG, it's because they have about 50 episodes to work on not counting specials and movies. That's a lot of money. While Garo is significantly shorter with about 24 episodes at most per season and much fewer specials/movies. Of course their CG is gonna look more refined.

The same cancer as always: broad audience.
Tokusatsu were failing as kid's shows. Then, Toei made Kuuga for teenagers and adults. Those audiences liked it. So, the greedy corporate suits tried to broaden the audience to kids again. It became shit again. Phase 1 was losing audience and sales from every audience. then, they started phase 2 with the promise of being more adult oriented, starting with W. As soon as a little adult audience was brought in, they shifted gears and tried to appeal to children again. And phase 2 became shit ever since.

there were good shows like W, OOO, Drive (maybe gaim and ex-aid) but they were all heavily flawed even if i did enjoy them. a show is only great if i can recommend it to someone who doesnt already watch this shit and they wont go "why is this happening?"

Build had such an amazing start but man did they fuck everything up halfway through the show. He also has to have the weakest final form I've ever seen… maybe Kiva's was worse.
Also, I'd consider Fourze a great show, but yeah, outside of Fourze, Gaim (after ep12, and Ex-Aid (after the christmas episode), most of phase 2 I wouldn't recommend to my friends either.

Not even the toylines are selling well, for the most part. This whole "making money" fallacy is nothing more than lies that incompetent producers tell their superiors in order to keep their jobs, instead of being replaced by competent and younger people.
Sentai, Ultraman and Kamen Rider are all failing to sell products and to raise audience numbers. The whole thing currently is nothing more than a money washing scheme.
And that is the last step before everything crumbles.

All of them. Both of Japan's porn and entertainment industries are run by the Yakuza, and everyone working on both are interchangeable.
They bring prostitutes to kids' shows or present them as pop music "singers" in order to condition those kids and fans to buy porn products/hire other prostitutes when they become adults.
It is all just a big scheme to take money away from gullible people.
As for specific ones from tokusatsu, you can look for Naomi Morinaga (Sheider and Spielvan), Spielvan's partner Diana (forgot her real name), Carranger's Zonette, Megaranger's Shiborena, Gingaman's Shelinda, Go Go V's only "human" femal villain (forgot her name), Timeranger's Lila, an so on.
Literally all tokusatsu shows have at least one prostitute in the main cast, as either a villain or as one of the heroines.

Not a single source, but a collection of interviews and reports from many who work on the entertainment industry through many years.
Not only actors and such, but also videogame developers. The book "The Secret Story of Japanese Developers" (don't buy, as the author is a leftist, so, get only via piracy) is a good source of some, as it has many reports from developers about Yakuza's involvement in the whole entertainment industry in Japan, as well as prostitution, gambling and drug dealing. Basically, everything that is not a public office belongs to the Yakuza, and everything related to them is made in order to make customers addicted to spending money as quickly as possible, be it on movies, books, music, games, prostitution, drugs or gambling.
One of the funniest/bizarre tales is about how Nintendo owns a franchise of motels, used both by couples as well as prostitutes and drug dealers.
As for the involvement of prostitution and children shows, everything about it is scattered in many reports. There is whole well planned scheme of making children addicted to prostitutes by presenting them to children at an early age, turning them into adults that seek to hire other prostitutes that are trained to behave like the "heroines" and villains of the shows, to realize fantasies.
There are also the prostitutes that are prepared from a young age to be pop "singers", that barely pass the minimal standards to become singers, but are used mostly to make teenagers and adults fantasize about them, and later become customers of other prostitutes that are trained to behave and dress like those "singers". In all cases, there are even those who the Yakuza pays for plastic surgery in order to make them look like the celebrities that the children/teenagers saw on TV and live shows when they were young.
It is a whole well planned and meticulously executed indoctrination aimed at making as many adults as possible to become uncontrolled spenders, addicted to the images of their childhood celebrities-turned-into-sexual-fantasies.

The Yakuza are basically involved in everything in Japan, especially the government. But the relationship is more like a symbiosis aka the benefits go both ways instead of them acting like parasites.

> does that mean there's no chance for writers and directors to actually try to make a good show?
They only have the smallest chance when everything else fails. That happens from time to time. The control that Yakuza has over the whole industry makes it stagnant, and at some point, even the japanese bugmen stop caring about the same things being shoved on entertainment over and over again. So, to restart their addiction programing, the owners of the industry let some authors "innovate" in some aspects, but always with watchful eyes.
Example: Gaim innovated in some aspects that were thought to be impossible for a tokusatsu show, but the Yakuza explicitly forbade the plot to portrait young people rebelling against older people and being sucessful. It had to be change to "they will rebel, but will fail, and will learn from that, and work along with the older ones", because the old japanese are dead afraid of their youngsters rebelling against their conditioning.
is every toku show just pogged from its conception nowadays?
Not nowadays. Always. Every single piece of entertainment from Japan, since the end of WW II was always made with the sole purpose of conditioning their society into becoming addicts to work and spend money on useless merchandise. Whenever some production was "good", it was merely by luck, or because the author slipped some quality work in it without being detected by the higher ups, until it was too late.
There are even tales of authors being reprimanded and even killed for presenting quality work that wasn't in accordance with what the higher ups wanted to portray.
>will we never get another good show?
Probably not. The whole entertainment industry in the whole world was always nothing more than a scheme to indoctrinate people. Each region using it as brainwashing tools for social engineering, for their own different purposes. Whenever we thought that something was good, it was only because we didn't know better what said production really was. Now that we know, we can spot the same repetition and overused tools for addiction from a mile.
Entertainment was always about controlling people. Not about making quality work or art. And Japan is no exception.

Unlikely, it will just progress them faster towards the liberal-progressiveness of the rest of the world.

A criminal, once in the government, will turn into a politician like all others, seeking only quick money, favors and other advantages for himself alone, while sacrificing the whole country.
The current Yakuza is a spot-on example. No matter how traditionalist and organized they were, once they entered the government, they all became politicians like any others, and are now ruining the country along with other politicians, instead of keeping their traditions and organization.
The system must be destroyed. It doesn't matter who is in charge: when the system is based on corruption, anyone that enters it will be automatically corrupted, no matter were they came from.
That also applies to western political systems.
