We don't know if is a demon sentai right now.

The only thing that would make me doubt the machine thing is that, well, Kamen Rider's kind of got that covered at the moment. Generally speaking cocurrent Sentai and Rider go for very different themes with minimal crossover; which kinda makes sense so they aren't competing with each other. Even very close calls like Toqger and Drive both being vehicle-based had an obvious distinct difference from each other.

Loving the demon angle if true.

I think we have a bad interpretation because in the end, couldn't be demons after all.

But then again Go-Busters overlapped with two rider shows that aired while it aired too, specifically OOO and Fourze which had animals and technology respectively while Go-Busters had animals AND technology. I do see your point though.

I do like the Arabian Nights angle too aside from my current opinion.

Well again, there are significant differences there:-

- Unlike its adaption, Go-Busters never really played up its animal theming. Sure, the zords had animal modes; but they were minor points and beyond a few details and it wasn't a significant part of the roleplay weapons, the combined mecha or even the ranger designs themselves. The only time I feel it was ever played up was with Tatagami Li-Oh, which of course debuted after OOO ended.

- There was tech in both Go-Busters and Fourze, yeah; but obviously with much different theming. Go-Busters was more about spy equipment and operations while Fourze was full-on space. ... and, uh, switches.


It's not so much that there can't be a tech-based sentai alongside a tech-based rider; or a mystic-based sentai alongside a mystic-based rider. It's more what form that takes -- Ninninger and Ghost both had mystical elements to them, but one was about ninjas while the others was about spectres and historical figures.

I want to see Yumi Kakazu be the narrator and voice the devices if they were to do the Arabian Mythology motif. Also, if they choose the Arabian motif, it be like Gosieger but with Muslim elements or if Goseiger was Muslim instead of Christian. I will expect that the episode will end with the Islamic date of the date of airing and the base will set in Tokyo Camii.

Why hope for for just one religious-type of focus? Hope for aspects of all of them used in equal amounts in harmony. That would be a good show and a good way to promote coexistence and harmony among the world and it's people.

"Demon" has different connotations in Japan. They aren't necessarily evil or from hell, they're just weird magical creatures.

My guess is that we're going to get mythical Japanese creatures, like kappa/tanuki/tengu/kitsune, infused with some sort of technology -- which would align pretty well with the existing rumors.

Also, sorry to everyone who was so totally certain we'd be getting a Sports/Olympics-themed series. Please bow down to our new Glitter Demon overlords!

It’s not demons. Why the hell is everybody acting like it has to be demons? Google Translate is a terrible translator. Were the Majin in Majiranger demons? For crying out loud, 魔 is the first half of the Japanese word for magic itself and there’s a lot of Japanese fantasy media talks about “holy magic,” which if you’re so insistent that you’re supposed to be reading that character as demon, even when it’s not being used in that context, would make the concept of holy magic about as rational as saying a rainy desert. You also have MAJIN Buu, who is about as “traditionally demonic” as Goten is.

I am near certain that you were not supposed to be reading it as demon so much is you are supposed to read it as magic. Especially when you have it as others have pointed out, the potential for it to be a pun meaning machine and majin. You know, like the giant robot thing from Zi-O. Because I don’t think a transforming space bike with a clock for a face is a demon found in any sort of grimoire.
