Along with the 36th Super Sentai Series, Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters, Toei plans to launch a second live action Sentai series this year titled: Hikōnin Sentai Akibaranger. The story will follow three protagonists who live in Akihabara's Electric Town "among other otaku". The trio learn of plans to destroy their neighborhood by an evil entity, so they become warriors to defend their town.
People working on this show include Kamen Rider's (Director) Ryuta Tazaki, Tiger and Bunny's (director/character designer) Keiichi Satou, Spice and Wolf's (writer) Naruhisa Arakawa and Ghost in the Shell's (composer) Kenji Kawai. You can check out the official site by clicking here. Last edited by Deefuzz; 01-09-2012 at 06:01 PM.. |

I have a feeling this will be kinda comedic compared to Gobusters. After all, it's about Otaku (basically, the japanese word for nerd) trying to defend Akihabara (basically, an Otaku paradise)

Ultraman had a clean freak who transformed brushing his teeth, Kamen Rider had a Sommelier, about time Sentai had a parody of itself.

I kinda wanna see this. I did love Kamen Rider G, so an official unofficial Sentai sounds like fun.
I may have missed something but is this going to be animated? I assumed since it has Tiger & Bunny's character designer on board. If it is, I am more psyched because I always used to say "I wanna see how Power Rangers would look animated." (incidentally, I accidentally reposted this news. Feel free to remove the thread.) |

Looking forward to this, sounds like a good crew is attached.
