And, as we all know, companies never hesitate to target those who have buying power. I can't imagine that Toei would simply ignore those people.
Modern Precure already satisfies this demographic. While the primary audience is young girls, there's also a strong secondary audience of adult men. Toei is well aware of this, which probably is why the production values are so high. Sailor Moon is a bit different in that it's probably going to try to capture adult women who may have grown up watching the original series.

Time has moved on, and the new Sailor Moon is going to be a bit different because of that. I would imagine that Precure and Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon show the kind of directions the show will take.
