Either it's because I only watched it during the Disney era, or I just have no sense of nostalgia.
ANYWAYS, it's obviously gotten to the point where no toku can succeed in America unless it's introduced as a comedic parody of Power Rangers. I wouldn't mind if they did that to Kamen Rider, perhaps they could just dub the actual Japanese footage instead of hiring a bunch of non-Asian actors. And instead of being true to Kamen Rider, they could make it entirely different. I think this idea of Kamen Rider would be successful on Comedy Central.
