From the Promoter
With Power Morphicon we have a very set fan base for Power Rangers. At Japan World Heroes we wanted to show the other sides of Tokasatu and the many other elements they may have never seen before. This gives us an opportunity to not only feed the hungry audience in the States for these Japan-locked genres but also expose them to a wider captive fan base that would love it all as much as I do if they were just given the chance.
Thank you for being part of that,
