@FimbulK Yeah, that's something Toei is asking people to do for their Tokusatsu channel, but in this case, I suspect the additional problem of the entire series getting region-locked too.

@Jo @FimbulK@mastodon.social count on it. Sailor Moon rights are kind of bizarre on top of Toei’s usual weirdness with legacy properties like this. (Worth checking to see if Tubi UK got the subbed version. I think the dub is tied to physical media and occasional promotions. It would be nice to be wrong)

@casta @FimbulK Tubi apparently pulled out of the UK, unfortunately, because they didn't want to play nice with the GDPR. :blobugh:

@Jo @FimbulK@mastodon.social oh why am I not surprised. (Tubi should only be used by people who know how to minimize bullshit or who just don’t care, so yeah) I would have assumed also something to do with the Fox acquisition.

I wish English-language Sailor Moon outside US/CA wasn’t such a fraught exercise, and hope this ends up like Sailor Moon Crystal where Toei just quietly put its own version up (on Crunchyroll that time) and Viz Media quietly ignored that
