At this point, I think the market for material like this is mostly in streaming, and I would probably see it more as a Crunchyroll kind of thing.
That said, many of the series like Clock Striker seem like a natural fit for a "Saturday Morning cartoon" vibe (uh... hence the name, apparently). If Nickelodeon or Disney X.D ever got serious about having more of an original action animation lineup like in years past, or if Hulu, or HBO Max ever wanted to step in that realm, I'd like to think (hope?) that there's untapped market potential there.

I see then. And Netflix and FUNimation?

You guys are debating about the quality of the work and here I am just wondering why the flame wielding girl on the left of the promo art is wearing what looks like thick stockings over her jeans. When the art is shrunk to the side bars pic it makes her look like she's not wearing any pants until you see the pocket outlines. At least for a brief second until you do a double take.

I don't see why not for either. Of all the streaming services, the one putting the most effort into both original animation and younger skewing action animation is Netflix, so they would probably be a good fit. (Netflix is my least favorite of the streaming services, but that's down to a bunch of my own odd personal preferences).
FUNimation is probably the most unlikely fit, IMO. I don't think they've done much in the way of non-Japanese original properties with their streaming service. But, so far the "Crunchyroll Originals" initiative seems to be better received than I expected, so maybe FUNi will get into that game as well.
Ultimately, if some of the better stories of Saturday AM Comics get adapted with decent quality, non-CG animation, I'd be happy wherever it shows up!

Oh yes indeed. And technically speaking, Radiant is from a French comic, so you could say it’s one of their rarest non-Japanese works.
And apart from the two sites, I’m wondering for Tokyopop OELs or even some English language light novels from sites like Wattpad and RoyalRoads.

Ah yes, the important questions. I think she's wearing jean shorts (that have turned up cuffs) over a pair of stockings.

They're called Jorts, and John Cena wants a cut of his royalties.
