They did invade Indonesia back then, but our nation wasn't exist as a country.
It's still consisted many own kingdoms.

did the British Empire influence Indonesia?

Americanized version of Japanese series was nothing new though.
Many TV cartoons adapted from anime has started in the 70s/80s.
The most famous one is Battle of the Planets / G-Force.
They uses footages from Gachaman anime (officially of course) but changed the story and added their new own footages to fill the gaps.

True, it wasn't until later where anime had more faithfaul dubbing.

But still, I wish Toei had an American branch where they could just dun Super Sentai and Kamen Rider over relying on Saban, hasbro or whoever to make adaptions from it.

No, Dutch Colonial Empire did.
There are five countries invaded Indonesia back then with Netherland being the strongest one.

It's more about cultural differences and American children's programming standards. Direct translations of Kamen Rider /Super Sentai often contain cultural elements or themes (example: a train-themed team in Ressha Sentai ToQger) that executives believed might not resonate with American children.



The original series can also feature more mature themes or visible violence (characters getting injured or killed like the death of Tackle in Kamen Rider Stronger) that required toning down for American children's programming standards.
