Sakamoto is apparently directing the first episode. More often than not thats reserved for the series' primary director.

How do you think that Koichi Sakamoto will be directing the first episode? It like saying that Gen Urobuchi will be written Ninninger! That just rumor!

This confuses me.

Allegedly, Sakamoto was recognized being on set during filming of the first episode. And more often than not, whoever directs episode 1 is the series' primary director.

That's where the rumor began at least. Sources vary as to how it started.

Only time will tell...

Why do I have the feeling we will be seeing one of the girls from his recent non-sentai and non-rider films....

Because Nao Nagasawa is in everything including being a past ninja themed Ranger. :p


I'm okay with Sakamoto, his action direction is great, as long as someone puts a leash on his perviness.

Would this be the guy that did Kyoryuger, by any chance?

Yes, the main director of Kyoryuger. Thankfully Ninninger won't pair him with Riku Sanjo again, so there's still hope that we'll get a toned down Sakamoto (In terms of his perviness, that is).



PS Sakamoto should do more Garo. He's perfect for that show.

Know what I like most? The giant shuriken weapon. It reminds me of the weapon/sword from Magiranger/Mystic Force and how it became different weapons for each member? I love that.

And, of course, the Ribbiter Repeater.

Sorry for the double post but I just had a wonderfully amazing thought.

What if the Sixth Sentai's mech turns into a giant throne that Shurikenjin rides into battle! And the last mech in the series is an even bigger throne! IN-THRONE-CEPTION!
