Toei unveil TOEI TOKUSATSU WORLD OFFICIAL

under General Tokusatsu News

Continuing the milestones for Western tokusatsu streaming this month, Toei themselves have also announced a brand new venture – the TOEI TOKUSATSUWORLD OFFICIAL channel.

This YouTube service will feature 70 series from the 1960s to the 1990s, including (but not limited to) Himitsu Sentai Goranger, Space Sheriff Gavan, Megabeast Investigator Juspion, Message from Space, Changerion, Poitrine and Shin Kamen Rider: Prologue.

The channel will launch GLOBALLY on 6th April 2020, with the first two episodes of all 70 shows being made available (licensing restrictions may apply to certain shows in certain territories) subtitled in a number of languages. Further episodes will be available in Japanese, with Toei planning to make a “public call” for subtitles in any language.

More information can be found via the official press release or the images attached to the story!

    A new channel featuring 70 different shows is coming GLOBALLY to YouTube on 6th April 2020!

    The first two episodes of each show will land with a range of subtitles, with Toei making a public call for subs on further episodes.

    Now this sounds promising. Easily accessible Toku with English subtitles. I just hope the entirety, or at least the majority of their offerings will be available in the EU.

    Hopefully. I took it to mean things like potentially Juspion not being available in the US because of the BD release for example.

    Would be nice if they used this is a viable way to have the rest of the world get the original Kamen Rider.

    So wait, if I'm reading this right; does 'public call' mean that fans have to make subs themselves past the first 2 episodes???

    I assume so.

    I think fans added subs to Ultraman R/B episodes that were officially added to YouTube.

    That's neat. I have a feeling this might be to help people trapped at home due to the pandemic. Which is great. The more free content to consume the better.
