Overview

This seriesToeiProduced byTV AsahiseriesIt is a special effects hero program mainly for children that is broadcast on.Regarding the range of works included in the series, initially, due to differences in production time, agency and original author, etc.Battle Fever J(1979-80) was counted as the starting point, but later it was produced before that.Secret Sentai Gorenger(1975-77) and "Jacker blitzkrieg(1977, both worksShotaro IshinomoriThe form to include the original) has become established (Later).In this item, we will explain in line with the recognition that "Goranger" is the first work in the series.

Following the success of "Goranger", a group hero program based on the same concept was produced, and from "Battle Fever J", "Giant robotIncorporating the element of "Electronic squadron Denjiman(1980-81), many basic styles of the squadron series that have continued since then have been established, such as the standard name "○○ squadron" and the use of items for transformation.^[2][3], Has become a long-term popular series.

The number of stories in each work in the series differs depending on the work, but in this item, all works will be unified with the notation of "No. ○ (number of stories) story" (the final episode will be written as "final story").In addition, the total number of broadcasts is expressed as "total number XX (total number of times)".

Birth history

Before the start of this series1971年It was started in Japan and was very popular.ShowaKamen Rider seriesAs a proposal for a new program of ""Introduce 5 Kamen Riders at once from the beginningWas the Showa Kamen Rider series production bureau at that time.Located in OsakaQuasi-key station-Every day broadcastingShono Itaru, the director of the movie departmentOne heroIt didn't happen because I strongly opposed it.^[4].. "The star competition was exciting at that time, but when it was over, it disappeared, and Toei broke out all-star works in an attempt to prevent it.Historical dramaIt was said that the decline of the work was accelerated. "^[4].

The turning point was in April 1975.Net changeIs.Semi-key stations on NET (currently TV Asahi) at that time started from Mainichi Broadcasting SystemAsahi Broadcasting (currently Asahi Broadcasting Television)Changed to Mainichi Broadcasting SystemKey station TBSAs a result of the shift to, the NET side lost the broadcasting rights of the "Showa Kamen Rider Series" and was forced to hurry to launch a new program to replace it.At that time, based on the idea of ​​"5 Kamen Riders" that was once in storage, the hero program "5 people team"Secret Sentai GorengerWas produced.The hero who always appears with five people is Toei'sToru HirayamaIt was such an epoch-making idea that he proudly said, "That way of making is my secret technique."^[4]..In addition, Kabuki's masterpiece "Shiranami Five MenAnd the opinion in Toei that "3 people are few, 4 people are unlucky. 7 people are too many" also contributed.^[5].

There have been examples of heroes fighting in teams in the past, but in "Goranger", the appearance after transformation was made into a color-coded suit, and the style of fighting while synchronizing the movements such as the pose of the team name and the special move was made. ..These were widely accepted by children and became very popular programs with an audience rating of over 20% at all times, and became a big hit with a broadcast period of two years.However, the next work "Jacker blitzkrieg』(1977) was not as popular as the previous work, and it was 9 months since the broadcast started.CensoredTherefore, the attempt to make a series was once frustrated.

The following year, 1978, ToeiMarvel comicsIn partnership with the group, one of Marvel's signature works, "SpidermanBased on ""Spider-Man (Toei version)』Produced (Tokyo 12 channel <current:Television Tokyo Channel 12, Ltd.> Broadcast)."The Toei side originally adopted"Life-size hero Giant robotThe groundbreaking idea of ​​"also maneuvering" was well received, and the toy of the giant robot "Leopardon" was also a great commercial success.

As a result, "Group Hero" + "Giant Robo" was planned by combining the two elements.Battle Fever J』(1979) started broadcasting on TV Asahi series.This work was also successful, and although the broadcast time has changed several times since then, new works are being produced at a pace of one work every year without any interruption to this day.

• Unless otherwise specified, the total number of times in this section includes special episodes broadcast in regular frames.

Style

Common concept

The pattern of fighting against the invasion plan by the monster sent from the enemy organization is almost the same as the "Showa Kamen Rider series" which was the rough prototype of the above-mentioned "Goranger".

The basic concept and scenario format of this series is based on "Goranger", and the giant robot battle is based on "Battle Fever J", while the subsequent formats such as the adoption of mask goggles and transformation items are generally established in "Denjiman". However, because it is a long-term series, there are a wide variety of ideas newly created for each work and merchandising know-how.

The main target of the work is preschoolers, and with the "drama that children see for the first time" in mind, we are trying to develop a story that can be understood by young children.^[14]..For example, "High school students are the main characters.High speed squadron turbo ranger], The scene of "school", which is an unknown place for young children, is suppressed as much as possible.^[15]Also, the theme of time is "Mirai Sentai Time RangerIn 』, the complicated time paradox is avoided for viewers who have lived for only a few years and have not established the concept of the" past ", and the basis of the story is placed in the present age.^[16].

The concepts that are pervaded in many of the series are as follows.

Each warrior "transforms" from a human figure into a suit, and at that time, gives his name.

As mentioned above, it was born from the idea of ​​turning the individual hero "Kamen Rider" into a team hero.^[4], "Transformation" which is an element of "Kamen Rider series" which is the origin of "Goranger" is inevitably incorporated.

Of "Goranger"SwordsmanwasKazutoshi TakahashiBy Kabuki's "Shiranami Five MenIs referred to and "NameThe concept was introduced^[17]..This is a production that follows the flow of TV historical drama that Toei was originally good at.^[5]..In the history of the series, the name was sometimes omitted, but the reaction of the children was not good.^[5].

The production of the name is the country of productionJapaneseIt is based on the aesthetic sense of, and when it was broadcast in other countries, "In the meantime, will you be attacked by the enemy?Is the most questionable part.^[18].. 『Power Ranger』In the production, the American side raised doubts about the name,Suzuki TakeyukiHad to explain the need^[19].

However, due to the lengthening of the "Power Rangers" series, the name was gradually established in other countries, and in the latter half of the 2010s, when the Japanese side omitted the name, it came to be warned "Why not do it?"^[20].

Each warrior is distinguished by color.

The masks and suits of each warrior follow the pattern that "the design is very similar, but the colors are clearly different in the primary colors", with the only exception of "Battle Fever J".The suit is basically a simple design, but after "Avalanger" through "Fiveman" and "Gingaman", a strengthened form has been introduced in some way.^[21].

Additional warriorThere are various types of people, such as those who have different colors, those who wear armor on their suits, those who are not squadron suits, and those who do not have a human body.

Multiple members work together as a team to fight the enemy.

"Goranger" incorporates the element of "group" used in police dramas to differentiate it from "Kamen Rider" and "Kikaider", which were the basis of heroes until then, and cooperates with unique members. And friendship was the basis of the work. "Goranger" Episode 1 The day before the crank-in,Yoshikawa Susumu"A rider can defeat a monster, but a Goranger is a hero who can finally win in collaboration with five people," he told the staff.^[22].

Regarding this production, it is sometimes said that it is cowardly to fight with one monster with five people.^[23].. It may be just a joke like the self-parody in the 25th episode of "Car Ranger", but he was the producer of "Car Ranger" in question.Shigeru KoderaWas shocked when a friend said, "Bullying among children is a bad influence of the Toei special effects program that hurt the other party."^[24].

In addition, depending on the episode, there are cases where one of the members makes an outstanding performance and defeats the monster alone, but even in such a case, the team will not be neglected.^[23].

The enemies become huge, and the members also ride on giant robots and fight against them.

With the exception of the first two works, Goranger and Jacker, each squadron has its own giant robot and rides on it to become huge, or fight huge enemies (or giant robots on which they board) from the beginning. Is customary.

Also, eachepisodeIt is also a mountain area and a showcase that develops near the end of each game, and it is also the cornerstone of this series.^[25].

The shooting of these scenes is currently shared between the team led by the special effects director and the team shooting the main drama, the former is shot four times throughout the year, and the staff kneads while playing with the toys that are the products. And Toei Producer'sNaomi TakebeIs explaining^[25].

"Battle Fever J''Dai Sentai Goggle Five''Super electronic bioman''Tokumei Sentai Go Busters''Mashin Sentai Kira MajorThere are cases where human-sized enemies and huge-sized enemies exist separately, but in the sense that there are two types of battles, one with a transformation suit and the other with a giant robot, the pattern is followed. There is.

"Squadron RoboSee

Each squadron is independent and has a completely different view of the world.

Among the works belonging to the squadron series, "Electronic squadron Denjiman"When"Sun squadron sambalkanWith the only exception of the relationship, there is no clear continuity of the worldview.^[26].

However, the two major squadrons will co-starSuper Sentai VS SeriesOr, on special occasions such as some kind of memorial year project, successive squadrons will appear regardless of the consistency of the settings for each work.^[26].

"Pirate Sentai GokaigerIs a special case, and the TV series itself is from "Goranger" to "Tensou Sentai GoseigerWith 34 squadrons up toCrossover worksAnd, it adopts the continuous world view of "the world where 34 squadrons have continued to protect the earth in the past".^[26].

Each series will end broadcasting in one year.

As mentioned above, "Goranger" was broadcast for two years because it was well received, and on the contrary, the next work "Jacker" was discontinued after 2 cools, but after "Battle Fever J" whose original author became Saburo Yatsude. The work is basically completed in one year (3 courses, around 1 episodes) regardless of the audience rating, commercial success or failure, and then moved to the next work.After the end of the broadcast like the recent seriesSuper Sentai V-CinemaIs released orVS seriesAnd the movie version, "Pirate Sentai GokaigerAlthough a crossover work such as "Denjiman" may be drawn at a later date, an example of a direct sequel produced in "TV series for Japan" is "Denjiman" produced as a sequel as of 2017. Only "San Balkan"^{[Note 3]}.

Takeyuki Suzuki of Toei, who has been the producer of the series for over 15 years, said, "If you make a sequel, there is a high possibility that it will transform into maniac content and become a dent," he said, saying the significance of starting a new project from scratch.^[27].

Combat style

Squadron members carry their own weapons and also engage in individual battles.

At the beginning of the battle (and in some cases during the battle), everyone starts to give their name and tells the name of the squadron.At this time, an effect that an explosion occurs behind (or emits a flashy light of CG synthesis) is often used. The basic flow is to enter the battle from "everyone's name from an individual's name".

When stabbing a monster, a "special move" that can only be used by all members is often used.Many patterns of these techniques and the weapons used for them have appeared in the long history.

As the speed of drama and toy development is accelerating, there is a strong tendency for more elements to appear year by year.^[28].

Series development

Penetration to the general public

The main target is all children, especially preschool boys.Battle Fever JSince then, it is a longevity series that has continued for more than 40 years without a single pause, so many of the generations who saw early works as children are already parents, so a wide range of age groups In general, the term "Sentai Mono" often refers to the Super Sentai series that begins with Goranger.In each areaLocal heroConsidering that many of them are "Sentai Mono", it can be said that they have penetrated the world.In addition, heroes other than Toei (including local heroes who did not take material from the squadron) are sometimes called squadrons, and the name "Sentai Mono" is synonymous with special effects heroes in the general public other than enthusiasts.

As the series became longer, older male fans began to attach to the heroine, and from around the 1990s, many beautiful new actors were appointed.TwinkA phenomenon called "hero" was seen in the media. Influence of "Heisei Kamen Rider Series" which resumed the series in the 2000s^[29]As a result, new viewers such as young women and mothers of children, which are different from the previous special effects fan base, will be cultivated, and the fan base is steadily expanding to the older age group.

Changes in the performers, etc.

The ages of male actors who play heroes vary from their late teens to their early 10s, but as mentioned above, with the lengthening of the series, there is a growing tendency to appoint beautiful young actors as in the "Heisei Kamen Rider Series". Nowadays, it is also called "the gateway to young actors".^[30].

Also, the number of TV dramas broadcast over the year has decreased.^{[Note 4]}Because of that, it is now a valuable program for veteran actors.^[30].

After the work is finished, the actor who appeared regularly as a hero will return to the later work as a regular or guest character role such as a collaborator / enemy executive, and it can be said in the "Kamen Rider series".Wednesday 21:XNUMX,Thursday mysteryIn many cases, he also appears as a guest in other Toei production frames (general dramas) broadcast on TV Asahi.

Treatment of "Goranger" and "Jacker"

In the past, the first two works "Secret Sentai GorengerAnd 'Jacker blitzkriegThere was a disagreement as to whether or not to include 』in the Super Sentai series.

After the end of "Jacker", ToeiMarvel Comics GroupBased on the character use tie-up withSpidermanWas produced, but the Japanese at that timeAmerican comicIn order to give a strong impression to the viewer, considering that they are not familiar withLife-size heroAlso controls a giant robot. "Although this production was well received, it did not increase the name recognition of American comics, so the second Marvel tie-up work "Battle Fever J』Inheriting the giant robot, avoiding using the existing character as it is,Saburo YateAfter establishing Toei's original hero based on the original, the element of "group hero" established in "Goranger" and "Jacker" was reintroduced.^[31].

The name "Super Sentai" is "Sun squadron sambalkan』(1981) began to be used, but whether the first work in the series is" Goranger "or" Battle Fever J "varies depending on the publisher that publishes the material, and there is a unified view. I wasn't.However, in the 1s, the division after "Battle Fever J" was the mainstream, and "Super Beast Sentai Liveman』(1988) during the broadcast period, the" Super Sentai 10th "logo mark was made^[32].

However, in the 1990s, it was officially decided to include "Goranger" and "Jacker" in the series, and "Gosei Sentai Diranger(1993) During the broadcast period, as the name of the official series including these two works, "Super SentaiWas adopted.In some materials such as the super complete works of that period, two works consisting of Ishinomori's original works of "Goranger" and "Jacker" are described as "Sentai series, "Battle Fever" and later works "Super squadron seriesIt is explained that the name "Super Sentai" was used to collectively refer to the two series.afterwards"Chosen Sentai Ranger』(1995) in the movie version"20th Anniversary of Sentai SeriesAfter being clearly stated, "Mirai Sentai Time Ranger』(2000) and later, the credit of" Super Sentai series "was inserted in the opening (or the beginning of the program) of the TV series, and the definition of the series was completely established.^[32], To the present.

character

Suit color and role

1st workSecret Sentai Gorenger], The individuality of the squadron members was expressed by the colors assigned to each.This is from the idea as a TV program producer that "if you do not make a lively screen, the viewer will be separated", and in 1975 when the broadcast started, it was sent to Japanese homes.Color TVThe background that the penetration rate exceeded 90% also contributed^[5].

"Goranger"Then, each member has the following roles.^[33].

• ■ "Red" → leader
• ■ tag → sub leader
• ■ yellow → Power・ Skill
• ■ peach → heroine
• ■ 绿 → Innocent warrior

3st workBattle Fever J』Expressed individuality with the shape of the mask, but because the design as a team lacked a sense of unity, the following 4th work"Electronic squadron DenjimanAfter that, the direction of giving individuality by color instead of mask was established.^[34]..With the lengthening of the series, the number of variations of expressions such as the number of female members has increased, and although the number of works that are difficult to apply simply is increasing, each member of the squadron has its own division of roles. The composition that teamwork is maintained by doing the above continues unchanged.The color of each member is often changed for each work, but including the retroactive setting in "Battle Fever", ""Red""Is never missing, and it is always included in the initial members even after the additional warriors have become established (as of 2020. The same applies to the following description).

In addition, regardless of color or gender, you can transform into a warrior of the past squadron.Pirate Sentai Gokaiger, And the colors can be exchanged between members.Ressha Sentai ToQger], The contents of this section do not always match in the state other than the default color.

The colors used in the series are as of 2020Red, blue, yellow, peach, green, white, orange, black, fat, navy blue, purple, gold, silver, light blue, gray, brownAll 16 colors^{[Note 5]}.

Basic color

The colors of the early members of the squadron are generally covered by seven colors, which are the five colors of "Goranger" plus white and black.^[37].

■ Red

Appeared in all Sentai series worksThen,Both are the center of the membersWill be.The reason is "High visibility allows recognition from a distance""Impression is stronger than other colors""Overwhelmingly popular with both men and women"^[38].

Initially, the squadron team ’sleaderIt was often depicted as a reliable elder, but with the theme of youth, "Super Beast Sentai LivemanFrom that time, the depiction changed to a life-sized figure that acts while worrying with friends.^[39].. 『Ninja Sentai KakurengerIn 』, while giving up the position of team leader to White, he took practical leadership in battle, but in"Denji Sentai MegarangerIn 』, it will be the role to leave the command to Black and take the lead, and after that,Red = leaderWithout being bound by the stereotype of ""Put it in the center of the dramaThe technique of strengthening the impression has come to be often used.^[39].

"Mirai Sentai Time Ranger], The same "red" timefire as Time Red appeared as an additional warrior, and it was the first example of a warrior of similar color appearing.^[40].

"Samurai Sentai Shinkenger』, The first female red appears at the end of the story^[41].

"Space squadron kyurenja] Is also a work in which two reds, Sisi Red and Ho-Oh Soldier, appear, but the shades of both are different, and Ho-Oh Soldier is darker red.^[42].

Two independent squadrons appear "Kaito Sentai Lupine Ranger VS Police Sentai Patranger』, Lupine Red and Patren No. 1 will appear from the beginning as leaders to lead each squadron^[43].

■ Blue

Like Red, it appeared in all Sentai series works, "sub leaderIn many cases.The first blue, Aoranger / Akira Shinmei, was the second and clear-minded, but he said, "Cool talent"Type blue is not the majority throughout the series^[44].

Blue is often associated with the sea and water, and is good at tactics to play with enemies at speed, so there are many roles that express a feeling of exhilaration as a whole.^[44].

The color of the sub-leader type suit is heavy "blue", while it is brighter for light warriors.■Light blue (sky blue)Is sometimes used, most of which are female warriors^[44].

■ Yellow

The impression that Daita Oiwa / Killanger of "Goranger" gave to the viewer was very strong, "Yellow = I like curryI have a strong image^[45]In addition to Daita Oiwa, Yellow, who was strongly described as a favorite of curry, said,Sun squadron sambalkanLeopard Asao / Balpanther only^{[46][Note 6]}..However, if it is not limited to curry, there are many yellows depicted as people with a strong appetite.^[46].

Similarly, in the image left by Killanger, "Yellow = fatThere is something like ", but an example that actually applies to this is"Dai Sentai Goggle Five"Taisei Huangshima / Goggles Yellow and"Torito Sentai Jetman』Raita Oishi / Yellow Owl, rather slim warriors stand out^[46]..Served as Toei producerSuzuki TakeyukiWhen I heard the opinions of the children, fat characters were not so popular, and Suzuki said that he was "not as fat as the Killanger" during "Goggle Five".^[47].

"Super electronic biomanWhen the number of female warriors became multiple for the first time, yellow was the color of the heroine along with pink.^[46]From the 2000s to the mid-2010s, it was almost exclusively for women. The reason why he was removed from the initial members in "Kyoryuger" was that "Yellow, which has a well-established image for women in recent years, is not suitable for increasing the proportion of men."^[48][49].

Yellow is a color that contains a variety of characters^[45]The only thing everyone has in common is their brightness.^[46].

■ Peach (pink)

If there are multiple female members in the team, the character is set in consideration of not wearing individuality, so for example, if female yellow is energetic and active, pink will have a quiet personality.^[46]If female blue symbolizes strength, pink will bear kindness^[44].

Women-only colors^[49]However, as an exception, "Animal squadron Zyuohger』Character, Mario Mori's cosplay" Zyuoh Human "exists.

■ Green

In the early works, it was incompatible with "black", and when one color was adopted, it was replaced with the other.This is due to the production judgment that many dark colors such as "green" and "black" lack liveliness and it is difficult to distinguish between them.^[50].. 『Choushinsei FlashmanSince then, in works where "Black" does not appear, "Green" has been increasingly set as a sub-leader.^[33].

"Super Beast Sentai LivemanWhen two additional warriors appeared in 』, green and black were lined up for the first time with the meaning of" let's do what we have never done ".^[51].

Since the impression of standard character modeling is thin, it is a color that tends to be given a sober role while being able to set the character relatively freely.^[49].

For a long time, it was limited to male warriors, but in "Space Sentai Kyuranger", the first female warrior, Chameleon Green, appeared in the TV series.^[52].

■ Black

It was first used in Battle Kenya in "Battle Fever", but depending on the material, Battle Kenya is also black.^[33]Also known as green^[53].

The Toei side has stated that it is "the (clear) first black warrior".Dai Sentai Goggle Five』Goggles black^[54]..Black was avoided as a hero's color because it has a strong image of evil, but it is a color that can give a strong impression equal to or stronger than "red".^[55],Suit actorAlso served asJunichi HarutaAdopted by Takeyuki Suzuki as it is suitable for the sharp movement of^[47]..In addition, the background of the early 1980s, when black was pervasive as a familiar color, such as being used for AV equipment that was all silver until then, also contributed.^{[55][Note 7]}..It can be said that it is a more modern evolution of the cool and nihilistic "blue".^[55],Dinosaur squadron juurangerWas often associated with the "sub-leader" in the above types.^[33].

□ White

"Jacker blitzkriegUsed for the first time in Big One^{[33][57][Note 8]}.

White is particularly difficult to handle among suit colors because it is conspicuously dirty and blends into the clouds when shooting outdoors.^[50]..Therefore, its use tends to be avoided.Ninja Sentai KakurengerThe introduction of an almost white suit for the heroine in 』is considered to be" characteristic ".^[59].

The white warrior has many impressive and special roles, and is treated as a little special among the basic colors.Another feature is that there are many warriors with unique names that do not include the color name "white".^[37].

Metal color

■ Silver

■ Gold

Silver is "Denji Sentai Megaranger"Mega Silver, Gold is"Magic squadron magillanger』Maji Shine first appeared.

These two colors are almost exclusively for additional warriors, and the total number of uses is small, but since the 2s, works in which either (or both) have appeared are conspicuous.^[37]..The initial member was "Space squadron kyurenjaTembin Gold and Snake Kai Silver are the first cases.^[60].

In addition, there are cases where one person can combine the above two colors.Pirate Sentai Gokaiger"Gold mode" that transforms Gokai Silver into multiple stages^[61]Or,Animal squadron Zyuohger"Juuou the World (3 colors including black),"Kaito Sentai Lupine Ranger VS Police Sentai Patranger"Lupin X" (silver) and "Patren X" (gold)^[62]Corresponds to this.

Other colors

Some warriors do not fit into the above categories in the series, and many warriors who participate irregularly do not belong to the basic colors.

■ Orange (orange)

"Battle Fever J』Battle sack is the first.There was no other use case for a long time, and there were cases where it was classified as yellow, which is an approximate color.^[63],Ressha Sentai ToQger], The second (additional warrior) ToQ 2Gou appeared^[64]..Also, as an initial member, "Space squadron kyurenja』Scorpion orange becomes the second person^[65], The name of "orange" is the first.

In addition, there is also a document that makes the Decaswan of "Dekaranger" "white + orange".^[66].

■ Purple (violet)

Geki Violet of "Gekiranger" was the first appearance, and since it was set as Geki Blue's older brother, it was selected from blue colors and adopted.^[67].

Purple is not used as the name of the warrior, but "Ressha Sentai ToQger』Super Tokyu No. 7 uses a purple conductor as a transformation item.

■ Crimson

"Ninpuu Sentai HurricangerThe first appearance of the Kabutraiger of "Lightning Stone Fire Goraiger" that appeared in.Although it is a reddish color, it is distinguished because the color tone is darker than the Hurricane Red of the same work.^[40].

■ Navy

■ Light blue (cyan or sky blue)

Kyoryusian from "Kyoryuger" first appeared. Cogma Sky Blue in "Kyuranger". Both "Cyan" and "Sky Blue" are bluish colors, but the name is because Kyoryuger appears in "Kyoryuger" and Wolf Blue appears in "Kyuranger" as normal "blue". And it is distinguished from "blue".

■ Brown

Ryusou Brown of "Ryusouger" first appeared.

??Uncertain

The Decamaster of "Decalanger" has a unique color tone,■ Steel blueIn addition to the materials^[40], There are games that are classified as black, etc.^[68], The treatment is different.

Makeover item

The first work in the series "Secret Sentai Gorenger], The reinforced clothing is folded and hidden "somewhere in the body", and no items are used when transforming.The second work of style pursuing realism "Jacker blitzkrieg] Must be in a "strengthening capsule" for transformation, and no transformation items that can be carried are used.^[69].

The transformation item that stores the reinforced clothes is the third work "Battle Fever JIs the first appearance^[69], The basic expression is that when you shout "Fever!" And make one revolution, you have finished wearing the suit in an instant.^[70], The sight of the reinforced clothing popping out from the arm communication device "Battle Siever" was drawn for the first time in episode 24.^[71]..Holding the item at the time of transformation is the 4th work "Electronic squadron Denjiman』After" Denji ring ".

In recent years, starting with "Gabrivolver" and "Beast Battery" of "Kyoryuger", by loading mini items into common weapons, there are increasing cases where they also serve as transformation items.

Sentai heroine

The Super Sentai series is basically a work for boys, but the main character in the play includes a female member, the so-called "Sentai Heroine".

The first work in the series "Secret Sentai Gorenger]Peggy Matsuyama / MomorangerIs "Kamen RiderIt was novel that he was depicted as a warrior of the same rank as the other four male members, not as a hostage member like "Rider Girls" in^[75]..The preceding special effects work "I like it! I like it! Witch teacherAnd 'Triple fighter』Although the heroine who fights also appeared^[75], "Goranger" is the first to draw a heroine as a "full-scale warrior" who fights continuously.^[76].

Served as the producer of "Goranger"Toru HirayamaCites the unfavorable treatment of girls in "hero pretend" among children as the reason for the appearance of fighting heroines.^[77]..If the subject of pretend play is "Kamen Rider", it's like "Bee Woman"Shocker PhantomOr because only the hostages to be kidnapped had the role of girls.^[77].. After the airing of "Goranger," Hirayama said, "I was really happy" when he saw the boys and girls working together to imitate the name "Goranger!"^[77].

However, at the beginning of the series, there was only one female member, "Red one pointWas limited to the position.This is because the program producers at that time could not grasp the existence of the girl viewer.^[78]..The reason is that parents buy toys for girls even for girls who watch hero programs.^[79]This is because the commercial evaluation was difficult to appear.In such a situation, "Sun squadron sambalkan』Has become a three-member system with only male members, but with the letter of protest against the absence of female members, the production side also changed the awareness of the girls.^[78].

1984'sSuper electronic biomanAt the planning stage, there was a proposal of "a squadron consisting of only five men", but since it would be difficult for men to develop the drama, the direction was to increase the number of women to two and make the conversation more interesting.^[79]..Lively and boyishMika Koizumi / Jun Yabuki / Yellow FourAnd neat and gentleHikaru Katsuragi / Pink FiveThat is the birth of a double heroine system by segregating people with easy-to-understand personalities.^[80]..This restructuring was well received, and the following year, he even came up with the idea, "How about a female-only squadron?"^[79]..After that, this pattern will be inherited while incorporating some changes such as switching the personality and color settings of the two people or returning to the red one-point system.^[80].

In an interview in 1993Suzuki Takeyuki"Initially, there was a theory that heroines were unnecessary, but I think that it is now well recognized."^[81]..In addition, the heroine image changes with the times, "The heroine of the squadron a long time ago was acting very masculine, but now (omitted) the heroine with a kindness that a man can not put out "It is required," he said after touching on the social situation at that time, "I think that the future squadron heroine (omitted) may become a character that is equal to the heroes and sometimes saves Red."

Evil heroine

In the Super Sentai series, a "dark heroine" who puts himself in an evil organization will also appear.

The evil organization at the beginning of the series was the so-called "male family", and even if the female character on the enemy side appeared, it was treated as a guest.^[86].. 『Battle Fever J』Appeared from episode 19SalomeIs the first example of a regular female executive^[87].

Evil female characters begin to play an active role in earnestElectronic squadron Denjiman』, Combining fear and humorQueen HedrianUnderneath, a faithful female spyMirror and KellerIs waiting.Ryu NoguchiThe Queen's costume designed by deliberately emphasizes the chest, and MillerShorts, KellerMini skirtAnd both showed the beauty of the legs^[88]..According to Noguchi, the phenomenon that fathers who were watching the program with their children became attracted to the villain beauty and actively watched the program began to occur at this time.^[88].

"Science squadron DynamanToChoushinsei FlashmanServed as a character designer for 4 worksHiroshi DebuchiBy "Dynaman"Princess chimera,Dengeki Sentai Changeman"ofQueen AhamesFemale characters that seemed to be live-action versions of science fiction anime appeared one after another, and decided the direction of the design of the subsequent Super Sentai series.^[89].

Regarding casting, Takeyuki Suzuki says that he is choosing an actress with high acting ability as an evil female executive.^[81]..This is because the actors on the hero side are young and have an immature side as actors, and if the bad side is not solid, the program will not be available.^[81]..Suzuki also said, "Sun squadron sambalkan"ofAmazon killerRoleYukie Kagawa (at that time), And other actresses who have appeared in adult movies are often appointed as evil female executives, but they deny the view that it is a service to the fathers.^[90]..According to Suzuki, actresses who have been nude have guts and don't disrespect children's shows.^[90].

Evil heroines, led by Queen Hedrian, are generally free-spirited and have many characters who happily do evil things.^[91]..Moreover, despite being involved in evil, there are also conspicuous innocent aspects such as hating cowardly means.^[92]..From the perspective of gender equality, it can be said that the evil side is more advanced than the hero side because the proportion of women in high positions is high.^[93].

Also,"Ninpuu Sentai Hurricanger"ofFlabilloAnd "Todoroki Sentai Bowkenger"ofShizuka in the wind, "Beast power squadron Kyoryuger"Joyful Warrior Candelilla(Although it is a costume character, it is in chargeVoice actor OfHaruka TomatsuHas appeared in the role of a human being, and has also shown a scene in the play where he sings himself at a live venue.^[94]), Natural "non-evil" characters are also appearing, and dark heroines are also becoming "idolized".^[95].

Squadron member change drama due to various circumstances

At the beginning of the series, due to "poor audience rating" and "convenience of actors", squadron members were sometimes replaced in the play under the name of "transfer" or "line of duty".With the growth of the series, such cases are no longer present^[96]..An example is introduced below.

• The killer of "Goranger" is temporarily replaced due to the work of the stage^[96].
• Baleagle of "Sun Vulcan" is replaced as part of the program's tactics^[97].
• During the Yellow Four alternation of "Bioman," his predecessor said, "I ran off with the staff and disappeared."urban legend(The truth is unknown) occurs^[96].

Additional warrior

An additional warrior is a warrior who appears from the middle of the story and has a different origin and ability from the members who appeared from the beginning (hereinafter referred to as the initial members).^[98]..Since the basic number of squadrons is 5, it is sometimes collectively referred to as the "sixth warrior."^[99][100]..Even in the playPirate Sentai GokaigerIn episode 17, it is used in the dialogue of Gai Ikari / Gokai Silver, the sixth warrior of the same work.

2st workJacker blitzkriegBig One, the first additional warrior in the series that appeared in the series, and the 3th work, which was originally composed of three peopleSuper Beast Sentai LivemanIn the early stages of the series, additional warriors, such as Black Bison Green Sai, who participated in the war in the middle of the series, appeared in the form of increasing the number of regular members.^[98].

8st workSuper electronic biomanThe concept of "sixth person" was presented for the first time by the Magne Warrior.^[101], Magne warriors themselves are classified as evil forces, not heroes^[102]..11th work "Light Sentai Maskman』X1 mask is the first example recognized as the sixth warrior in the play, but it ended in the appearance of only one episode^[101].

The first full-fledged sixth warrior1992年The first work ofDinosaur squadron juurangerIt is a dragon ranger that appeared in.Initially, the same work was planned to be fought with five members for one year as before, but due to the favorable audience rating, we decided to experimentally introduce a dragon ranger.This attempt is "One for fiveIt meant breaking the basic format of the squadron, so it was secretly promoted within Toei, and the idea was to break the rules only for the same work, but because the Dragon Ranger was more popular than expected, Additional warriors have become a staple in subsequent series^[99].

The additional warrior has the following characteristics.

The design is different from the initial members

The Dragon Ranger in Juranger wore armor to differentiate him from the five early members.^[103]..Since this became popular, subsequent additional warriors generally followed this concept.^[21].

Some, like the black knight of Seijuu Sentai Gingaman in armor, do not take the shape of a squadron suit.^[98].

Also, a peculiar warrior that humans do not transform, such as the signal man of "Gekisou Sentai Car Ranger", is described as "Todoroki Sentai BowkengerIn the mini corner "Squadron Special File" in "", it was treated as an "extra hero".Nowadays, there are many cases where a warrior who is not a regular character is treated as an "extra warrior" (the ranger key of such a warrior was not released even in "Gokaiger").^[104].

Different origins and purposes of fighting

Kiba Ranger of "Gosei Sentai Dairanger" that elementary school students transform, Mega Silver of "Denji Sentai Megaranger" who is an adult for 5 high school students^[98]There are examples of creating strong individuality due to age differences.

Gao Silver of "Hyakujuu Sentai Gaoranger" who is a person 1000 years ago, and Abare Black of "Bakuryu Sentai Abaranger" who came from another dimension of the earth^{[Note 9][98]}, Kyoryu Gold of "Beast Power Squadron Kyoryuger" who was a samurai in the Warring States period^[105], ToQ 6Gou of "Ressha Sentai ToQger" who was a monster on the former enemy side^[106]Some owners have a history far from the initial members.

Appears in the middle of each series

However, on the other hand, a method of giving an impact to the viewer by intentionally breaking this standard is also used. Kyoryu Gold of "Beast Power Squadron Kyoryuger" appeared in episode 11 and Star Ninger of "Shuriken Sentai Ninninger" appeared in episode 9 at a fairly early stage.^[101].

The opposite example is the Abare Killer of "Avalanger", which has been active as an anti-hero for the enemy side for a long time after its appearance, and it was about half a year after its appearance that it was in episode 43 of the final stage that it was in a fight with the hero side. It was after^[101].

Tends to be easy to marry

The first full-fledged additional warrior, the Dragon Ranger, had the harsh fate of losing his life after fighting for a limited life.Since then, there are many examples of additional warriors who die in the excitement of drama development, such as the time fire of "Mirai Sentai Timeranger", the aforementioned Abare Killer, and the beat buster of "Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters".^[107].

However, Shurikenger of "Ninpuu Sentai Hurricanger" has also been sent off as if he had died in the war.Ninpuu Sentai Hurricanger 10 YEARS AFTER』Is supposed to have died, while"Bakuryu Sentai Abaranger VS HurricangerAnd 'Shuriken Sentai Ninninger』Reappears in a living state, so life and death are ambiguous.

A production that takes advantage of such preconceptions is also used.From the example of Dragon Ranger and Abare Killer, Kyoryu Gold followed by the jinx that "the additional warrior of the dinosaur motif squadron will die"^[108]Has been revived in the final episode, and ToQ 6Gou of "Ressha Sentai ToQger", which had a habit of saying "Is this the place where I die?", Has survived safely.^[107].

Overview

This seriesToeiProduced byTV AsahiseriesIt is a special effects hero program mainly for children that is broadcast on.Regarding the range of works included in the series, initially, due to differences in production time, agency and original author, etc.Battle Fever J(1979-80) was counted as the starting point, but later it was produced before that.Secret Sentai Gorenger(1975-77) and "Jacker blitzkrieg(1977, both worksShotaro IshinomoriThe form to include the original) has become established (Later).In this item, we will explain in line with the recognition that "Goranger" is the first work in the series.

Following the success of "Goranger", a group hero program based on the same concept was produced, and from "Battle Fever J", "Giant robotIncorporating the element of "Electronic squadron Denjiman(1980-81), many basic styles of the squadron series that have continued since then have been established, such as the standard name "○○ squadron" and the use of items for transformation.^[2][3], Has become a long-term popular series.

The number of stories in each work in the series differs depending on the work, but in this item, all works will be unified with the notation of "No. ○ (number of stories) story" (the final episode will be written as "final story").In addition, the total number of broadcasts is expressed as "total number XX (total number of times)".

Birth history

Before the start of this series1971年It was started in Japan and was very popular.ShowaKamen Rider seriesAs a proposal for a new program of ""Introduce 5 Kamen Riders at once from the beginningWas the Showa Kamen Rider series production bureau at that time.Located in OsakaQuasi-key station-Every day broadcastingShono Itaru, the director of the movie departmentOne heroIt didn't happen because I strongly opposed it.^[4].. "The star competition was exciting at that time, but when it was over, it disappeared, and Toei broke out all-star works in an attempt to prevent it.Historical dramaIt was said that the decline of the work was accelerated. "^[4].

The turning point was in April 1975.Net changeIs.Semi-key stations on NET (currently TV Asahi) at that time started from Mainichi Broadcasting SystemAsahi Broadcasting (currently Asahi Broadcasting Television)Changed to Mainichi Broadcasting SystemKey station TBSAs a result of the shift to, the NET side lost the broadcasting rights of the "Showa Kamen Rider Series" and was forced to hurry to launch a new program to replace it.At that time, based on the idea of ​​"5 Kamen Riders" that was once in storage, the hero program "5 people team"Secret Sentai GorengerWas produced.The hero who always appears with five people is Toei'sToru HirayamaIt was such an epoch-making idea that he proudly said, "That way of making is my secret technique."^[4]..In addition, Kabuki's masterpiece "Shiranami Five MenAnd the opinion in Toei that "3 people are few, 4 people are unlucky. 7 people are too many" also contributed.^[5].

There have been examples of heroes fighting in teams in the past, but in "Goranger", the appearance after transformation was made into a color-coded suit, and the style of fighting while synchronizing the movements such as the pose of the team name and the special move was made. ..These were widely accepted by children and became very popular programs with an audience rating of over 20% at all times, and became a big hit with a broadcast period of two years.However, the next work "Jacker blitzkrieg』(1977) was not as popular as the previous work, and it was 9 months since the broadcast started.CensoredTherefore, the attempt to make a series was once frustrated.

The following year, 1978, ToeiMarvel comicsIn partnership with the group, one of Marvel's signature works, "SpidermanBased on ""Spider-Man (Toei version)』Produced (Tokyo 12 channel <current:Television Tokyo Channel 12, Ltd.> Broadcast)."The Toei side originally adopted"Life-size hero Giant robotThe groundbreaking idea of ​​"also maneuvering" was well received, and the toy of the giant robot "Leopardon" was also a great commercial success.

As a result, "Group Hero" + "Giant Robo" was planned by combining the two elements.Battle Fever J』(1979) started broadcasting on TV Asahi series.This work was also successful, and although the broadcast time has changed several times since then, new works are being produced at a pace of one work every year without any interruption to this day.

Work list

• Unless otherwise specified, the total number of times in this section includes special episodes broadcast in regular frames.

Style

Common concept

The pattern of fighting against the invasion plan by the monster sent from the enemy organization is almost the same as the "Showa Kamen Rider series" which was the rough prototype of the above-mentioned "Goranger".

The basic concept and scenario format of this series is based on "Goranger", and the giant robot battle is based on "Battle Fever J", while the subsequent formats such as the adoption of mask goggles and transformation items are generally established in "Denjiman". However, because it is a long-term series, there are a wide variety of ideas newly created for each work and merchandising know-how.

The main target of the work is preschoolers, and with the "drama that children see for the first time" in mind, we are trying to develop a story that can be understood by young children.^[14]..For example, "High school students are the main characters.High speed squadron turbo ranger], The scene of "school", which is an unknown place for young children, is suppressed as much as possible.^[15]Also, the theme of time is "Mirai Sentai Time RangerIn 』, the complicated time paradox is avoided for viewers who have lived for only a few years and have not established the concept of the" past ", and the basis of the story is placed in the present age.^[16].

The concepts that are pervaded in many of the series are as follows.

Each warrior "transforms" from a human figure into a suit, and at that time, gives his name.

As mentioned above, it was born from the idea of ​​turning the individual hero "Kamen Rider" into a team hero.^[4], "Transformation" which is an element of "Kamen Rider series" which is the origin of "Goranger" is inevitably incorporated.

Of "Goranger"SwordsmanwasKazutoshi TakahashiBy Kabuki's "Shiranami Five MenIs referred to and "NameThe concept was introduced^[17]..This is a production that follows the flow of TV historical drama that Toei was originally good at.^[5]..In the history of the series, the name was sometimes omitted, but the reaction of the children was not good.^[5].

The production of the name is the country of productionJapaneseIt is based on the aesthetic sense of, and when it was broadcast in other countries, "In the meantime, will you be attacked by the enemy?Is the most questionable part.^[18].. 『Power Ranger』In the production, the American side raised doubts about the name,Suzuki TakeyukiHad to explain the need^[19].

However, due to the lengthening of the "Power Rangers" series, the name was gradually established in other countries, and in the latter half of the 2010s, when the Japanese side omitted the name, it came to be warned "Why not do it?"^[20].

Each warrior is distinguished by color.

The masks and suits of each warrior follow the pattern that "the design is very similar, but the colors are clearly different in the primary colors", with the only exception of "Battle Fever J".The suit is basically a simple design, but after "Avalanger" through "Fiveman" and "Gingaman", a strengthened form has been introduced in some way.^[21].

Additional warriorThere are various types of people, such as those who have different colors, those who wear armor on their suits, those who are not squadron suits, and those who do not have a human body.

Multiple members work together as a team to fight the enemy.

"Goranger" incorporates the element of "group" used in police dramas to differentiate it from "Kamen Rider" and "Kikaider", which were the basis of heroes until then, and cooperates with unique members. And friendship was the basis of the work. "Goranger" Episode 1 The day before the crank-in,Yoshikawa Susumu"A rider can defeat a monster, but a Goranger is a hero who can finally win in collaboration with five people," he told the staff.^[22].

Regarding this production, it is sometimes said that it is cowardly to fight with one monster with five people.^[23].. It may be just a joke like the self-parody in the 25th episode of "Car Ranger", but he was the producer of "Car Ranger" in question.Shigeru KoderaWas shocked when a friend said, "Bullying among children is a bad influence of the Toei special effects program that hurt the other party."^[24].

In addition, depending on the episode, there are cases where one of the members makes an outstanding performance and defeats the monster alone, but even in such a case, the team will not be neglected.^[23].

The enemies become huge, and the members also ride on giant robots and fight against them.

With the exception of the first two works, Goranger and Jacker, each squadron has its own giant robot and rides on it to become huge, or fight huge enemies (or giant robots on which they board) from the beginning. Is customary.

Also, eachepisodeIt is also a mountain area and a showcase that develops near the end of each game, and it is also the cornerstone of this series.^[25].

The shooting of these scenes is currently shared between the team led by the special effects director and the team shooting the main drama, the former is shot four times throughout the year, and the staff kneads while playing with the toys that are the products. And Toei Producer'sNaomi TakebeIs explaining^[25].

"Battle Fever J''Dai Sentai Goggle Five''Super electronic bioman''Tokumei Sentai Go Busters''Mashin Sentai Kira MajorThere are cases where human-sized enemies and huge-sized enemies exist separately, but in the sense that there are two types of battles, one with a transformation suit and the other with a giant robot, the pattern is followed. There is.

"Squadron RoboSee

Each squadron is independent and has a completely different view of the world.

Among the works belonging to the squadron series, "Electronic squadron Denjiman"When"Sun squadron sambalkanWith the only exception of the relationship, there is no clear continuity of the worldview.^[26].

However, the two major squadrons will co-starSuper Sentai VS SeriesOr, on special occasions such as some kind of memorial year project, successive squadrons will appear regardless of the consistency of the settings for each work.^[26].

"Pirate Sentai GokaigerIs a special case, and the TV series itself is from "Goranger" to "Tensou Sentai GoseigerWith 34 squadrons up toCrossover worksAnd, it adopts the continuous world view of "the world where 34 squadrons have continued to protect the earth in the past".^[26].

Each series will end broadcasting in one year.

As mentioned above, "Goranger" was broadcast for two years because it was well received, and on the contrary, the next work "Jacker" was discontinued after 2 cools, but after "Battle Fever J" whose original author became Saburo Yatsude. The work is basically completed in one year (3 courses, around 1 episodes) regardless of the audience rating, commercial success or failure, and then moved to the next work.After the end of the broadcast like the recent seriesSuper Sentai V-CinemaIs released orVS seriesAnd the movie version, "Pirate Sentai GokaigerAlthough a crossover work such as "Denjiman" may be drawn at a later date, an example of a direct sequel produced in "TV series for Japan" is "Denjiman" produced as a sequel as of 2017. Only "San Balkan"^{[Note 3]}.

Takeyuki Suzuki of Toei, who has been the producer of the series for over 15 years, said, "If you make a sequel, there is a high possibility that it will transform into maniac content and become a dent," he said, saying the significance of starting a new project from scratch.^[27].

Combat style

Squadron members carry their own weapons and also engage in individual battles.

At the beginning of the battle (and in some cases during the battle), everyone starts to give their name and tells the name of the squadron.At this time, an effect that an explosion occurs behind (or emits a flashy light of CG synthesis) is often used. The basic flow is to enter the battle from "everyone's name from an individual's name".

When stabbing a monster, a "special move" that can only be used by all members is often used.Many patterns of these techniques and the weapons used for them have appeared in the long history.

As the speed of drama and toy development is accelerating, there is a strong tendency for more elements to appear year by year.^[28].

Series development

Penetration to the general public

The main target is all children, especially preschool boys.Battle Fever JSince then, it is a longevity series that has continued for more than 40 years without a single pause, so many of the generations who saw early works as children are already parents, so a wide range of age groups In general, the term "Sentai Mono" often refers to the Super Sentai series that begins with Goranger.In each areaLocal heroConsidering that many of them are "Sentai Mono", it can be said that they have penetrated the world.In addition, heroes other than Toei (including local heroes who did not take material from the squadron) are sometimes called squadrons, and the name "Sentai Mono" is synonymous with special effects heroes in the general public other than enthusiasts.

As the series became longer, older male fans began to attach to the heroine, and from around the 1990s, many beautiful new actors were appointed.TwinkA phenomenon called "hero" was seen in the media. Influence of "Heisei Kamen Rider Series" which resumed the series in the 2000s^[29]As a result, new viewers such as young women and mothers of children, which are different from the previous special effects fan base, will be cultivated, and the fan base is steadily expanding to the older age group.

Changes in the performers, etc.

The ages of male actors who play heroes vary from their late teens to their early 10s, but as mentioned above, with the lengthening of the series, there is a growing tendency to appoint beautiful young actors as in the "Heisei Kamen Rider Series". Nowadays, it is also called "the gateway to young actors".^[30].

Also, the number of TV dramas broadcast over the year has decreased.^{[Note 4]}Because of that, it is now a valuable program for veteran actors.^[30].

After the work is finished, the actor who appeared regularly as a hero will return to the later work as a regular or guest character role such as a collaborator / enemy executive, and it can be said in the "Kamen Rider series".Wednesday 21:XNUMX,Thursday mysteryIn many cases, he also appears as a guest in other Toei production frames (general dramas) broadcast on TV Asahi.

Treatment of "Goranger" and "Jacker"

In the past, the first two works "Secret Sentai GorengerAnd 'Jacker blitzkriegThere was a disagreement as to whether or not to include 』in the Super Sentai series.

After the end of "Jacker", ToeiMarvel Comics GroupBased on the character use tie-up withSpidermanWas produced, but the Japanese at that timeAmerican comicIn order to give a strong impression to the viewer, considering that they are not familiar withLife-size heroAlso controls a giant robot. "Although this production was well received, it did not increase the name recognition of American comics, so the second Marvel tie-up work "Battle Fever J』Inheriting the giant robot, avoiding using the existing character as it is,Saburo YateAfter establishing Toei's original hero based on the original, the element of "group hero" established in "Goranger" and "Jacker" was reintroduced.^[31].

The name "Super Sentai" is "Sun squadron sambalkan』(1981) began to be used, but whether the first work in the series is" Goranger "or" Battle Fever J "varies depending on the publisher that publishes the material, and there is a unified view. I wasn't.However, in the 1s, the division after "Battle Fever J" was the mainstream, and "Super Beast Sentai Liveman』(1988) during the broadcast period, the" Super Sentai 10th "logo mark was made^[32].

However, in the 1990s, it was officially decided to include "Goranger" and "Jacker" in the series, and "Gosei Sentai Diranger(1993) During the broadcast period, as the name of the official series including these two works, "Super SentaiWas adopted.In some materials such as the super complete works of that period, two works consisting of Ishinomori's original works of "Goranger" and "Jacker" are described as "Sentai series, "Battle Fever" and later works "Super squadron seriesIt is explained that the name "Super Sentai" was used to collectively refer to the two series.afterwards"Chosen Sentai Ranger』(1995) in the movie version"20th Anniversary of Sentai SeriesAfter being clearly stated, "Mirai Sentai Time Ranger』(2000) and later, the credit of" Super Sentai series "was inserted in the opening (or the beginning of the program) of the TV series, and the definition of the series was completely established.^[32], To the present.

character

Suit color and role

1st workSecret Sentai Gorenger], The individuality of the squadron members was expressed by the colors assigned to each.This is from the idea as a TV program producer that "if you do not make a lively screen, the viewer will be separated", and in 1975 when the broadcast started, it was sent to Japanese homes.Color TVThe background that the penetration rate exceeded 90% also contributed^[5].

"Goranger"Then, each member has the following roles.^[33].

• ■ "Red" → leader
• ■ tag → sub leader
• ■ yellow → Power・ Skill
• ■ peach → heroine
• ■ 绿 → Innocent warrior

3st workBattle Fever J』Expressed individuality with the shape of the mask, but because the design as a team lacked a sense of unity, the following 4th work"Electronic squadron DenjimanAfter that, the direction of giving individuality by color instead of mask was established.^[34]..With the lengthening of the series, the number of variations of expressions such as the number of female members has increased, and although the number of works that are difficult to apply simply is increasing, each member of the squadron has its own division of roles. The composition that teamwork is maintained by doing the above continues unchanged.The color of each member is often changed for each work, but including the retroactive setting in "Battle Fever", ""Red""Is never missing, and it is always included in the initial members even after the additional warriors have become established (as of 2020. The same applies to the following description).

In addition, regardless of color or gender, you can transform into a warrior of the past squadron.Pirate Sentai Gokaiger, And the colors can be exchanged between members.Ressha Sentai ToQger], The contents of this section do not always match in the state other than the default color.

The colors used in the series are as of 2020Red, blue, yellow, peach, green, white, orange, black, fat, navy blue, purple, gold, silver, light blue, gray, brownAll 16 colors^{[Note 5]}.

Basic color

The colors of the early members of the squadron are generally covered by seven colors, which are the five colors of "Goranger" plus white and black.^[37].

■ Red

Appeared in all Sentai series worksThen,Both are the center of the membersWill be.The reason is "High visibility allows recognition from a distance""Impression is stronger than other colors""Overwhelmingly popular with both men and women"^[38].

Initially, the squadron team ’sleaderIt was often depicted as a reliable elder, but with the theme of youth, "Super Beast Sentai LivemanFrom that time, the depiction changed to a life-sized figure that acts while worrying with friends.^[39].. 『Ninja Sentai KakurengerIn 』, while giving up the position of team leader to White, he took practical leadership in battle, but in"Denji Sentai MegarangerIn 』, it will be the role to leave the command to Black and take the lead, and after that,Red = leaderWithout being bound by the stereotype of ""Put it in the center of the dramaThe technique of strengthening the impression has come to be often used.^[39].

"Mirai Sentai Time Ranger], The same "red" timefire as Time Red appeared as an additional warrior, and it was the first example of a warrior of similar color appearing.^[40].

"Samurai Sentai Shinkenger』, The first female red appears at the end of the story^[41].

"Space squadron kyurenja] Is also a work in which two reds, Sisi Red and Ho-Oh Soldier, appear, but the shades of both are different, and Ho-Oh Soldier is darker red.^[42].

Two independent squadrons appear "Kaito Sentai Lupine Ranger VS Police Sentai Patranger』, Lupine Red and Patren No. 1 will appear from the beginning as leaders to lead each squadron^[43].

■ Blue

Like Red, it appeared in all Sentai series works, "sub leaderIn many cases.The first blue, Aoranger / Akira Shinmei, was the second and clear-minded, but he said, "Cool talent"Type blue is not the majority throughout the series^[44].

Blue is often associated with the sea and water, and is good at tactics to play with enemies at speed, so there are many roles that express a feeling of exhilaration as a whole.^[44].

The color of the sub-leader type suit is heavy "blue", while it is brighter for light warriors.■Light blue (sky blue)Is sometimes used, most of which are female warriors^[44].

■ Yellow

The impression that Daita Oiwa / Killanger of "Goranger" gave to the viewer was very strong, "Yellow = I like curryI have a strong image^[45]In addition to Daita Oiwa, Yellow, who was strongly described as a favorite of curry, said,Sun squadron sambalkanLeopard Asao / Balpanther only^{[46][Note 6]}..However, if it is not limited to curry, there are many yellows depicted as people with a strong appetite.^[46].

Similarly, in the image left by Killanger, "Yellow = fatThere is something like ", but an example that actually applies to this is"Dai Sentai Goggle Five"Taisei Huangshima / Goggles Yellow and"Torito Sentai Jetman』Raita Oishi / Yellow Owl, rather slim warriors stand out^[46]..Served as Toei producerSuzuki TakeyukiWhen I heard the opinions of the children, fat characters were not so popular, and Suzuki said that he was "not as fat as the Killanger" during "Goggle Five".^[47].

"Super electronic biomanWhen the number of female warriors became multiple for the first time, yellow was the color of the heroine along with pink.^[46]From the 2000s to the mid-2010s, it was almost exclusively for women. The reason why he was removed from the initial members in "Kyoryuger" was that "Yellow, which has a well-established image for women in recent years, is not suitable for increasing the proportion of men."^[48][49].

Yellow is a color that contains a variety of characters^[45]The only thing everyone has in common is their brightness.^[46].

■ Peach (pink)

If there are multiple female members in the team, the character is set in consideration of not wearing individuality, so for example, if female yellow is energetic and active, pink will have a quiet personality.^[46]If female blue symbolizes strength, pink will bear kindness^[44].

Women-only colors^[49]However, as an exception, "Animal squadron Zyuohger』Character, Mario Mori's cosplay" Zyuoh Human "exists.

■ Green

In the early works, it was incompatible with "black", and when one color was adopted, it was replaced with the other.This is due to the production judgment that many dark colors such as "green" and "black" lack liveliness and it is difficult to distinguish between them.^[50].. 『Choushinsei FlashmanSince then, in works where "Black" does not appear, "Green" has been increasingly set as a sub-leader.^[33].

"Super Beast Sentai LivemanWhen two additional warriors appeared in 』, green and black were lined up for the first time with the meaning of" let's do what we have never done ".^[51].

Since the impression of standard character modeling is thin, it is a color that tends to be given a sober role while being able to set the character relatively freely.^[49].

For a long time, it was limited to male warriors, but in "Space Sentai Kyuranger", the first female warrior, Chameleon Green, appeared in the TV series.^[52].

■ Black

It was first used in Battle Kenya in "Battle Fever", but depending on the material, Battle Kenya is also black.^[33]Also known as green^[53].

The Toei side has stated that it is "the (clear) first black warrior".Dai Sentai Goggle Five』Goggles black^[54]..Black was avoided as a hero's color because it has a strong image of evil, but it is a color that can give a strong impression equal to or stronger than "red".^[55],Suit actorAlso served asJunichi HarutaAdopted by Takeyuki Suzuki as it is suitable for the sharp movement of^[47]..In addition, the background of the early 1980s, when black was pervasive as a familiar color, such as being used for AV equipment that was all silver until then, also contributed.^{[55][Note 7]}..It can be said that it is a more modern evolution of the cool and nihilistic "blue".^[55],Dinosaur squadron juurangerWas often associated with the "sub-leader" in the above types.^[33].

□ White

"Jacker blitzkriegUsed for the first time in Big One^{[33][57][Note 8]}.

White is particularly difficult to handle among suit colors because it is conspicuously dirty and blends into the clouds when shooting outdoors.^[50]..Therefore, its use tends to be avoided.Ninja Sentai KakurengerThe introduction of an almost white suit for the heroine in 』is considered to be" characteristic ".^[59].

The white warrior has many impressive and special roles, and is treated as a little special among the basic colors.Another feature is that there are many warriors with unique names that do not include the color name "white".^[37].

Metal color

■ Silver

■ Gold

Silver is "Denji Sentai Megaranger"Mega Silver, Gold is"Magic squadron magillanger』Maji Shine first appeared.

These two colors are almost exclusively for additional warriors, and the total number of uses is small, but since the 2s, works in which either (or both) have appeared are conspicuous.^[37]..The initial member was "Space squadron kyurenjaTembin Gold and Snake Kai Silver are the first cases.^[60].

In addition, there are cases where one person can combine the above two colors.Pirate Sentai Gokaiger"Gold mode" that transforms Gokai Silver into multiple stages^[61]Or,Animal squadron Zyuohger"Juuou the World (3 colors including black),"Kaito Sentai Lupine Ranger VS Police Sentai Patranger"Lupin X" (silver) and "Patren X" (gold)^[62]Corresponds to this.

Other colors

Some warriors do not fit into the above categories in the series, and many warriors who participate irregularly do not belong to the basic colors.

■ Orange (orange)

"Battle Fever J』Battle sack is the first.There was no other use case for a long time, and there were cases where it was classified as yellow, which is an approximate color.^[63],Ressha Sentai ToQger], The second (additional warrior) ToQ 2Gou appeared^[64]..Also, as an initial member, "Space squadron kyurenja』Scorpion orange becomes the second person^[65], The name of "orange" is the first.

In addition, there is also a document that makes the Decaswan of "Dekaranger" "white + orange".^[66].

■ Purple (violet)

Geki Violet of "Gekiranger" was the first appearance, and since it was set as Geki Blue's older brother, it was selected from blue colors and adopted.^[67].

Purple is not used as the name of the warrior, but "Ressha Sentai ToQger』Super Tokyu No. 7 uses a purple conductor as a transformation item.

■ Crimson

"Ninpuu Sentai HurricangerThe first appearance of the Kabutraiger of "Lightning Stone Fire Goraiger" that appeared in.Although it is a reddish color, it is distinguished because the color tone is darker than the Hurricane Red of the same work.^[40].

■ Navy

■ Light blue (cyan or sky blue)

Kyoryusian from "Kyoryuger" first appeared. Cogma Sky Blue in "Kyuranger". Both "Cyan" and "Sky Blue" are bluish colors, but the name is because Kyoryuger appears in "Kyoryuger" and Wolf Blue appears in "Kyuranger" as normal "blue". And it is distinguished from "blue".

■ Brown

Ryusou Brown of "Ryusouger" first appeared.

??Uncertain

The Decamaster of "Decalanger" has a unique color tone,■ Steel blueIn addition to the materials^[40], There are games that are classified as black, etc.^[68], The treatment is different.

Makeover item

The first work in the series "Secret Sentai Gorenger], The reinforced clothing is folded and hidden "somewhere in the body", and no items are used when transforming.The second work of style pursuing realism "Jacker blitzkrieg] Must be in a "strengthening capsule" for transformation, and no transformation items that can be carried are used.^[69].

The transformation item that stores the reinforced clothes is the third work "Battle Fever JIs the first appearance^[69], The basic expression is that when you shout "Fever!" And make one revolution, you have finished wearing the suit in an instant.^[70], The sight of the reinforced clothing popping out from the arm communication device "Battle Siever" was drawn for the first time in episode 24.^[71]..Holding the item at the time of transformation is the 4th work "Electronic squadron Denjiman』After" Denji ring ".

In recent years, starting with "Gabrivolver" and "Beast Battery" of "Kyoryuger", by loading mini items into common weapons, there are increasing cases where they also serve as transformation items.

Sentai heroine

The Super Sentai series is basically a work for boys, but the main character in the play includes a female member, the so-called "Sentai Heroine".

The first work in the series "Secret Sentai Gorenger]Peggy Matsuyama / MomorangerIs "Kamen RiderIt was novel that he was depicted as a warrior of the same rank as the other four male members, not as a hostage member like "Rider Girls" in^[75]..The preceding special effects work "I like it! I like it! Witch teacherAnd 'Triple fighter』Although the heroine who fights also appeared^[75], "Goranger" is the first to draw a heroine as a "full-scale warrior" who fights continuously.^[76].

Served as the producer of "Goranger"Toru HirayamaCites the unfavorable treatment of girls in "hero pretend" among children as the reason for the appearance of fighting heroines.^[77]..If the subject of pretend play is "Kamen Rider", it's like "Bee Woman"Shocker PhantomOr because only the hostages to be kidnapped had the role of girls.^[77].. After the airing of "Goranger," Hirayama said, "I was really happy" when he saw the boys and girls working together to imitate the name "Goranger!"^[77].

However, at the beginning of the series, there was only one female member, "Red one pointWas limited to the position.This is because the program producers at that time could not grasp the existence of the girl viewer.^[78]..The reason is that parents buy toys for girls even for girls who watch hero programs.^[79]This is because the commercial evaluation was difficult to appear.In such a situation, "Sun squadron sambalkan』Has become a three-member system with only male members, but with the letter of protest against the absence of female members, the production side also changed the awareness of the girls.^[78].

1984'sSuper electronic biomanAt the planning stage, there was a proposal of "a squadron consisting of only five men", but since it would be difficult for men to develop the drama, the direction was to increase the number of women to two and make the conversation more interesting.^[79]..Lively and boyishMika Koizumi / Jun Yabuki / Yellow FourAnd neat and gentleHikaru Katsuragi / Pink FiveThat is the birth of a double heroine system by segregating people with easy-to-understand personalities.^[80]..This restructuring was well received, and the following year, he even came up with the idea, "How about a female-only squadron?"^[79]..After that, this pattern will be inherited while incorporating some changes such as switching the personality and color settings of the two people or returning to the red one-point system.^[80].

In an interview in 1993Suzuki Takeyuki"Initially, there was a theory that heroines were unnecessary, but I think that it is now well recognized."^[81]..In addition, the heroine image changes with the times, "The heroine of the squadron a long time ago was acting very masculine, but now (omitted) the heroine with a kindness that a man can not put out "It is required," he said after touching on the social situation at that time, "I think that the future squadron heroine (omitted) may become a character that is equal to the heroes and sometimes saves Red." Ta^[81].

Evil heroine

In the Super Sentai series, a "dark heroine" who puts himself in an evil organization will also appear.

The evil organization at the beginning of the series was the so-called "male family", and even if the female character on the enemy side appeared, it was treated as a guest.^[86].. 『Battle Fever J』Appeared from episode 19SalomeIs the first example of a regular female executive^[87].

Regarding casting, Takeyuki Suzuki says that he is choosing an actress with high acting ability as an evil female executive.^[81]..This is because the actors on the hero side are young and have an immature side as actors, and if the bad side is not solid, the program will not be available.^[81]..Suzuki also said, "Sun squadron sambalkan"ofAmazon killerRoleYukie Kagawa (at that time), And other actresses who have appeared in adult movies are often appointed as evil female executives, but they deny the view that it is a service to the fathers.^[90]..According to Suzuki, actresses who have been nude have guts and don't disrespect children's shows.^[90].

Evil heroines, led by Queen Hedrian, are generally free-spirited and have many characters who happily do evil things.^[91]..Moreover, despite being involved in evil, there are also conspicuous innocent aspects such as hating cowardly means.^[92]..From the perspective of gender equality, it can be said that the evil side is more advanced than the hero side because the proportion of women in high positions is high.^[93].

Also,"Ninpuu Sentai Hurricanger"ofFlabilloAnd "Todoroki Sentai Bowkenger"ofShizuka in the wind, "Beast power squadron Kyoryuger"Joyful Warrior Candelilla(Although it is a costume character, it is in chargeVoice actor OfHaruka TomatsuHas appeared in the role of a human being, and has also shown a scene in the play where he sings himself at a live venue.^[94]), Natural "non-evil" characters are also appearing, and dark heroines are also becoming "idolized".^[95].

Squadron member change drama due to various circumstances

At the beginning of the series, due to "poor audience rating" and "convenience of actors", squadron members were sometimes replaced in the play under the name of "transfer" or "line of duty".With the growth of the series, such cases are no longer present^[96]..An example is introduced below.

• The killer of "Goranger" is temporarily replaced due to the work of the stage^[96].
• Baleagle of "Sun Vulcan" is replaced as part of the program's tactics^[97].
• During the Yellow Four alternation of "Bioman," his predecessor said, "I ran off with the staff and disappeared."urban legend(The truth is unknown) occurs^[96].

Additional warrior

An additional warrior is a warrior who appears from the middle of the story and has a different origin and ability from the members who appeared from the beginning (hereinafter referred to as the initial members).^[98]..Since the basic number of squadrons is 5, it is sometimes collectively referred to as the "sixth warrior."^[99][100]..Even in the playPirate Sentai GokaigerIn episode 17, it is used in the dialogue of Gai Ikari / Gokai Silver, the sixth warrior of the same work.

2st workJacker blitzkriegBig One, the first additional warrior in the series that appeared in the series, and the 3th work, which was originally composed of three peopleSuper Beast Sentai LivemanIn the early stages of the series, additional warriors, such as Black Bison Green Sai, who participated in the war in the middle of the series, appeared in the form of increasing the number of regular members.^[98].

8st workSuper electronic biomanThe concept of "sixth person" was presented for the first time by the Magne Warrior.^[101], Magne warriors themselves are classified as evil forces, not heroes^[102]..11th work "Light Sentai Maskman』X1 mask is the first example recognized as the sixth warrior in the play, but it ended in the appearance of only one episode^[101].

The first full-fledged sixth warrior1992年The first work ofDinosaur squadron juurangerIt is a dragon ranger that appeared in.Initially, the same work was planned to be fought with five members for one year as before, but due to the favorable audience rating, we decided to experimentally introduce a dragon ranger.This attempt is "One for fiveIt meant breaking the basic format of the squadron, so it was secretly promoted within Toei, and the idea was to break the rules only for the same work, but because the Dragon Ranger was more popular than expected, Additional warriors have become a staple in subsequent series^[99].

The additional warrior has the following characteristics.

The design is different from the initial members

The Dragon Ranger in Juranger wore armor to differentiate him from the five early members.^[103]..Since this became popular, subsequent additional warriors generally followed this concept.^[21].

Some, like the black knight of Seijuu Sentai Gingaman in armor, do not take the shape of a squadron suit.^[98].

Also, a peculiar warrior that humans do not transform, such as the signal man of "Gekisou Sentai Car Ranger", is described as "Todoroki Sentai BowkengerIn the mini corner "Squadron Special File" in "", it was treated as an "extra hero".Nowadays, there are many cases where a warrior who is not a regular character is treated as an "extra warrior" (the ranger key of such a warrior was not released even in "Gokaiger").^[104].

Different origins and purposes of fighting

Kiba Ranger of "Gosei Sentai Dairanger" that elementary school students transform, Mega Silver of "Denji Sentai Megaranger" who is an adult for 5 high school students^[98]There are examples of creating strong individuality due to age differences.

Gao Silver of "Hyakujuu Sentai Gaoranger" who is a person 1000 years ago, and Abare Black of "Bakuryu Sentai Abaranger" who came from another dimension of the earth^{[Note 9][98]}, Kyoryu Gold of "Beast Power Squadron Kyoryuger" who was a samurai in the Warring States period^[105], ToQ 6Gou of "Ressha Sentai ToQger" who was a monster on the former enemy side^[106]Some owners have a history far from the initial members.

Appears in the middle of each series

However, on the other hand, a method of giving an impact to the viewer by intentionally breaking this standard is also used. Kyoryu Gold of "Beast Power Squadron Kyoryuger" appeared in episode 11 and Star Ninger of "Shuriken Sentai Ninninger" appeared in episode 9 at a fairly early stage.^[101].

The opposite example is the Abare Killer of "Avalanger", which has been active as an anti-hero for the enemy side for a long time after its appearance, and it was about half a year after its appearance that it was in episode 43 of the final stage that it was in a fight with the hero side. It was after^[101].

Tends to be easy to marry

The first full-fledged additional warrior, the Dragon Ranger, had the harsh fate of losing his life after fighting for a limited life.Since then, there are many examples of additional warriors who die in the excitement of drama development, such as the time fire of "Mirai Sentai Timeranger", the aforementioned Abare Killer, and the beat buster of "Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters".^[107].

However, Shurikenger of "Ninpuu Sentai Hurricanger" has also been sent off as if he had died in the war.Ninpuu Sentai Hurricanger 10 YEARS AFTER』Is supposed to have died, while"Bakuryu Sentai Abaranger VS HurricangerAnd 'Shuriken Sentai Ninninger』Reappears in a living state, so life and death are ambiguous.

A production that takes advantage of such preconceptions is also used.From the example of Dragon Ranger and Abare Killer, Kyoryu Gold followed by the jinx that "the additional warrior of the dinosaur motif squadron will die"^[108]Has been revived in the final episode, and ToQ 6Gou of "Ressha Sentai ToQger", which had a habit of saying "Is this the place where I die?", Has survived safely.^[107].
