Tokusatsu distribution in America | Toei Vs. Tsuburaya & More

[@donhillsmanii5906]

Shout out to Team Kamen Rider for trying DESPERATELY to help non-Japanese fans. Toei is totally screwing themselves with Western fans. But they are not as hip and media-savvy as TOHO or TSUBARAYA

[@boogerman908]

Their toys sell regardless of media distribution and that's probably all they really care about

[@christopher961]

They haven’t exactly done much to help non-Japanese Fans. They only sell the toys and they promote certain companies but not others. (Aka they only promote Shout Products)

It’s funny, if Toei didn’t drop the ball with Kamen Rider distribution, I wouldn’t have got into Ultraman. Tsuburaya really going all out for its western fans ended up making me a fan lol

[@diegopanzariello4433]

Ultraman was exibited in various countrys of latin america in spanish and portuguese languages.

[@nisrntje3240]

To put into context for Kamen Rider fans. In the exact same amount of time for Shout to get the rights to the OG Kamen Rider, Kuuga, Ryuki & Zero-One; Mill Creek release the equivalent of every Showa & Heisei Ultraman show. Had Toei put in the same amount of effort as Tsuburaya we could've gotten everything from the OG 1971 to at least up to ZI-O by now.

[@christopher961]

I wouldn’t go that far. A caveat is that while Mill Creek did release those shows, once they got to Tiga, Gaia, Dyna etc, they started downgrading to dvd copies which made releases happen faster since less work needed. We could have at least gotten Most of Heisei Part 1 though by now. I am hoping Shout shows something NEW at Anime Expo this week otherwise I’m just going to have to assume they are done with Kamen Rider new series

[@LiMe251]

No wonder it takes so long for tokushoutsu to get new rider series, they have to wait until they've made back the money from the last ones.

[@samwill7259]

At this point it's going to be very hard for Toei to find traction in the west if they ever DO release the shows officially. Every single tokusatsu fan knows where to get fansubs for totally free at this point because we've all had to in order to be part of this fandom in the first place, it's very hard to argue with "totally free" in the market when all you need to access them is some basic internet knowhow that the fandom shares eagerly among itself, also for free. They've waited way too long.

MARCOSATSU? MORE LIKE MAKOSATSU Great job, Mako!! I can't wait to see you on this channel more!

[@Sabata101]

After watching this, it makes a lot of sense why the state of release is like this. I didn’t know that the bill for distributing any Rider content falls on who ever buys the rights. While part 2 hasn’t come out yet, I’m guessing the reason why the Kuuga manga and 01 comic has come out sub par is tied to the fact that getting those rights was expensive, thus leading to Titan probably looking to see what the cheapest route was to translate the manga and creating the comic.

[@Spookybluelights]

I am very glad Ultraman is my fav toku franchise for this reason. Rider fans have my dear sympathy

[@Tasty_Tango45]

Very well done video, I enjoy Mako’s commentary. I also assume this issue does not have an easy fix, but maybe Toei could somehow find a way to bring Telsa or Toei Tokusatsu Fan Club to the west (including secondary countries) as a streaming service, I’m sure others (and myself included) wouldn’t mind paying for it if it were to happen. That way they’d not only be an official way to watch a vast majority of KR and SS’s catalogue (mainly those the west doesn’t already have) but it could also allow the funds to go straight to Toei showing them we want more.

[@coldmajima0068]

As someone who lives in the uk, reign free blu-ray players are the best way to watch anything Kamen Rider, so at least there's a way for english speakers (outside of the us) to watch them. But unfortunately as you said at the end, the manga for KR... so the seven seas release of the og KR is fab no problems for me there in anyway, but Stonebot's Kuuga manga releases are piss pure, I was really looking forward there releases as well😣 Hope to god someone can take can take the license away from Stonebot & give it MUCH better quality control & care. Thanks for the brilliant video, you did great, we all needed this😭

[@firefliesowlcity12]

This is a fascinating video. I'd love to see a longer breakdown that goes over every individual series and looks at which specific quality control issues they suffer, which series got things right, where people on the western market can start looking into content, and where things should develop going forward.

[@ProfDragonite]

Just the fact that Tsuburaya has given us such an excellent dub with Z, and Blazar looking to surpass even that, shows how much they understand their audience in the West. If only Toei would give us something anywhere close to that...

[@allgoodnamestaken6002]

Toei: "We don't think KR can succeed in the West without following the Power Rangers formula." Tsuburaya: *uploading official English dubs of entire Ultraman shows with experienced VAs on their official KZbin channel* Toei: "Yeah, we don't see that."

[@Spindash54]

Excellent video. Looking forward to the next part. Regarding the soundtracks, I’ve actually compiled a sheet that tracks EVERY release, Single, EP, OST, etc. with the links to both Apple and Spotify. This mainly becomes handy when looking for music that’s untranslated, or mistranslated, resulting in the search tools ineffective.

[@Topgunnder]

Great Video Mako enjoyed this angle of Rider's harsh western development

[@GeovaneSanciniSR]

Man, Kamen Rider in North America is kinda fucked. At least in Latin America, the Rider franchise have a sole distribution (Sato Company). Their marketing is good? Hell no, but at least they're putting some series on Prime Video and the subtitles are good (a friend of mine is the translator) and even dubbed the Zero One movie.

[@akuji330]

Great video. While I don't remember the details, I know that a streaming company called Free tv got the rights Kuuga, Agito, Ryuki and Faiz for Latin America, all of them got Spanish dubs if I remember correctly. However, currently the only available season is Agito so I suppose they lost the license to the other seasons.

[@mattwo7]

2:03 Yea uh no, that's not Toei's doing. Music for TV shows and movies in Japan aren't owned by the production studios or distributors, they're owned by entirely separate record labels (Kadokawa, being a huge media conglomerate, has their own record label used for adaptations of their LNs but they don't own the anime production studios). I have no idea why this is or why video games are the exception to this (though even their video games sometimes use licensed music like the Kingdom Hearts theme songs and licensing issues is probably why Electronic Communication and the Mega Man X4 onwards theme songs don't appear in the English localizations but this isn't an entire soundtrack, just the opening and sometimes end credits themes)

In terms of tokusatsu, Along with them is Kamen Rider Dragon Knight in 2013-17 after Ryuki stopped being shown in 2012 and Armor Hero after that till an unknown date (I stopped watching the channel at that time)

[@HenshinFanatic]

This was originally supposed to be a reply to a comment asking about the changes to show openings like in Ultraman Z but the original comment got yeeted while I was typing this up. /disclaimer Depends, sometimes they use a different verse after the halfway point of the series like they did with Ultraman Z. If you actually listen to what is being sung instead of just reading subs you'll notice the lyrics are actually different aside from the chorus (and sometimes even that gets adjusted). Similar thing happened with Kamen Rider Decade where they use the first verse for the early episodes and then transition to the second verse of the song being used for the opening in the latter part of the show. So using Decade as an example, episode 3 opening starts with "Miageru hoshii sore zore no rekishi ga, kagayite..." while like 38's opening begins "Lens goshi ni kiritotta keshiki wo, mitsumete mo..." since they're using different sections of the same song for the opening. They put way more effort into stuff like that then Western companies in general, most openings being full songs rather than just a minute or less that's used exclusively for the opening.

another thing is Kamen Rider is still an relatively new brand in the west. Sentai and Ultraman had a head start Thanks to the old Ultraman dubs and Power Rangers. Those brands already had some mark in US pop culture. Kamen Rider doesn't have that. (seriously nobody but us Toku nerds remember Masked Rider or Dragon Knight). So I think Toei is playing it way too safe because of that. and vice-versa US companies are less will to pay Toei's license fees for the series.

The showa-new heisei era also sporadically uploaded to fill the gap between newer ultras, also some of their BTS interviews, theatre, and ofc their exclusive toys. The comment sections and viewers is clamoring with many old and new ultra fans. Even have dedicated english dubs and multiple subs for countries where ultraman show famous. Toei really need to get their shit together in the future since Tsuburaya really do a good job to Ultraman international markets.

Also you should add Cleopatra Entertainment to the Ultra Series license as they're the ones releasing Shin Ultraman on physical media instead of Mill Creek

[@mattwo7]

21:22 That is markedly untrue as history has proven, though it depends on _how_ it's distributed. Like how most of 4kids' censorship was the result of having _older_ kids' shows (within the range of 7-10 or 11-13 by American standards, even in Japan shonen is for _adolescent_ boys) being aimed at _younger_ kids (3-7) on network television (basic cable has censorship for kids' shows too but the Nick brodcast of DBKai apparently wasn't as bad as the 4kids broadcast, even though people automatically blame 4kids for blue Popo because of course they do) and for some reason Warner Japan censored Jojo's for the subtitles on Crunchyroll and the censored footage was was re-used English dub release and Adult Swim (both while also using Viz's trademark paranoia name changes and also altering the Fist of the North Star references in Part 5 but leaving the anime robots whose copyrights WB didn't own in the Bohemian Rhapsody arc unaltered) (and Crunchryoll got the blame for this because of course it did).
