Anyway, I am sure you are aware of this as well as I. There are a lot of haters on these forums and any negative press from them could greatly jeopardize the chance of this show getting picked up here in the US.

I don't know what they are expecting from the show. But you can tell them that it's definitely a kid's show (ages 7-12) and not to expect super dark stories and bloody violence. I have been a fan of Kamen rider since the 70's (that's why I was chose by the powers that be to re-imagine the US adaptation.)

You can count on the fact that the vibe of the show is definitely going to be different than MMPR. And you can expect that as a fan of the original series, I will treat the show with total respect. This is not going to be a carbon copy of Ryuki, it's loosely based on some of the concepts and storyline. Different does not mean disrespect. I was asked by Toei people if I know what IS Kamenrider? Guess they approve of my answer.

People who want to see this show succeed should support the effort and not blast it to hell. making this show appeal to an American audience and fans of the original is a hugely difficult task!

We are doing our best with our limited resources.
