Just seeing who here are fans of the Japanese genre of film and tv entertainment known as Tokusatsu (or Toku, for short).
Godzilla is often considered the very first Tokusatsu production, but has since expanded to various subgenres and franchises like Metal Hero (Space Sherrif Gavan, Juukou B-Fighter (which would later be adapted for the 1st season of Saban's Big Bad Beetleborgs), Superhuman Machine Metalder (which was one of THREE different series who footage was used in VR Troopers)), the Kamen Rider franchise and most notably Super Sentai. The latter of which some people would know more of its younger American counterpart, Power Rangers.
SO, who all here loves their Toku?
