Earlier we reported that TOEI was going to be bringing tokusatu to your shores via IPTV on what they’re calling Toei Japan Channel. Courtesy of @purplevalkyrie on Twitter, we’ve received details that this new channel will launch on MyGlobeTV. Here is the press release:

Today our company announces the Toei Japan Channel, a subscription service aimed for Japanese living in North America.
It will be available through MyGlobeTV, provided by GlobeCast, a New York-based company that provides non-English programming across North America. (This service is not available outside North America.)
Toei Japan Channel will not only deliver Toei’s films and television programming, but also those available on Toei Video and from Central Arts K.K. (a Toei Video company), bringing a variety of content to viewers in North America.

Looks like you either need to pay $99 for equipment or sign up for 2 years to wave that. Have to see what all is offered, and what all eventually is shown subbed.

you don’t need the box, it says you can use the mobile app, although I don’t know what things offer it

Once they offer english subtitles they will have my money. Will miss fansub but I want it legally if they offer it so they know we’re an audience.

people, don’t complain about the price, you have to think of this as a long term investment, if the American Toku fans show our support with this we can show them there is a market and the subs will come faster, we all need to by subscriptions on day one
