Is there any sort of concentrated effort fans can make to get Kamen Rider Spirits? Would us turning out en masse for that poll (if there's a way to suggest a title) be any sort of help? We understand the cost of the license and risk, but with much of the Kamen Rider fan base sharing with the adult Power Ranger fan base, what's the best way to prove we'd support it? Vaguely related: have you ever considered a Kickstarter like DMP did for Tezuka titles?

Not really. And actually the bigger the numbers on the poll the less likely we’d license it…

I think if literally tens of thousands of you swamped my CEO’s email box that might convince him to think about it. But even that could be done by a bot program so it’d be dubious at best. So I doubt he’d take any action.

Us taking action on a long license like that just isn’t gonna happen. We’ve got too many long series right now and that makes us feel very uncomfortable for the future. Heck, even with Gundam’s success, I still worry about the print run sizes for future volumes since we are committed to release it all.

Regarding KS… At this time we have never considered it for manga. And for something as long as KRS it’d mean a six-figure KS amount for just the license and printing (not including any goodies).
