Hard to say, it's easy to fake an official letter once you got a sample. So I understand that their decision to not want to take a chance of it being legit and them having the time and the will to actually go through it. And fact, it might earn you good point for if Toei would want to hire fansub to make official subs ( not that I think it's likely of course, but it's just in case someone get the idea and it got validated).

I'm starting to lean in this direction. Over-Time and a few others are continuing to sub Sentai and Kamen Rider just fine.

I noticed that the 2003 Sailor Moon and a few anime that were produced by Toei are still available for download. Aren't those projects at risk or was the C&D just aimed at Super Sentai and Kamen Rider specifically?

ya know that is kinda odd, if they were targeting TVN for fan subbing Toei properties wouldn't it make sense for them to go after all of them and not just kamen rider and super sentai? correct me if I'm wrong but isn't ultraman owned by Toei as well? so shouldn't those have been removed as well? So why leave the rest alone but target two specific ones only?

yeah. why is it just Kamen Rider and Super Sentai? if it's fake and the person who faked it realizes that, they may try and send another one, which will just confirm it's fake. I kinda wish we could ask someone at Toei if anyone there really sent the email or not, but it could backfire on us

yeah no kidding, I just miss the familiarity of coming home after a long week and seeing a new episode of rider or sentai up and just looking forward to watching it. I still think it's fishy that of the toei properties that were left behind and only targeting rider and sentai I just wish we could get back to it and just finish saber and zenkaiger for the fans who liked them even if some of the subbers didn't like it. Although I understand they don't like em and have a right to their opinion but well I'll just stop here before it becomes a rant or a potential argument

I miss the color coded subs and the effects they add. TV-N was always the top tier of subbing. That's why I've been downloading their releases for what feels like 20 years. TV-N has kind of spoiled me when watching other subbers. I can't help but notice the stark contrast between TV-N's subs and the most basic work other subbers do. I miss the honorifics. I don't want these shows "localized". And I miss when they henshin it actually says "Henshin" and not "Transform".

I still maintain that they fell for a troll. I could be wrong, but they've said in the past that there are other groups that want to see TV-N shut down.
