Yep rights went back to toei. I believe Dragon Knight was a hit in Japan. It was an big flop in the US. Didnt sell toys or find success on CW Network. The show just didnt capture the imagination of its audience. Perhaps the nature of the long story archs and attempt to be more mature hurt its ability to connect with the younger audience.

Its unfortunate, since I really like Dragon Knight a lot. Its a real shame they it isnt even on Netflix. I doubt it ever comes back as a series. The best we can hope for is someone dealing with Toei to get the show streaming or are on DVD.

I could see another adaption of Kamen Rider someday. I know Saban Brands owns a Power Rider trademark. And their used to be a lot of talk that Saban got the rights to import Kamen Rider after the PR buyback. Nothing has happened with that yet.
