Hello from Japan. This is a translation from DeepL, so sorry if it is difficult to understand. As Teruaki Ogawa said in an interview, the budget did not come down for the 30th production even after the minimum line for the memorial work, "all the original cast members are willing to perform" was achieved. The reason was that the producers and directors at the time had all retired and had no backing, and the current executives doubted that a 30 year old IP could be profitable on its own. However, Mr. Ogawa, like Sasuke, did not give up until the end. Always thinking about Kakuranger, he met director Koichi Sakamoto when he happened to appear in Ultraman. Director Sakamoto's career started with the Alien Ranger part of Power Rangers, so he professed his attachment to the Kakurangers. Director Sakamoto's approach to Ogawa's request for support led to TTFC raising their hand to produce the film. In other words, without Power Rangers, Kakuranger 30th would not have been possible. I would like to thank Christian and all the Toku fans in the United States. Because you all loved Power Rangers when you were kids, Tokusatsu in Japan got the treasure that is Koichi Sakamoto, and Kakuranger was able to come back after 30 years.
For those who don't knew: HurricaneBlue, HurricaneYellow, and StarNinger made a cameo during the ending dance. I sense Toei may be giving us a Big Three Ninja Sentai team up.
5:58 the Yokai that Sasuke is talking to are played by the suit actors of Ninja Red (Seiji Takaiwa) and Ninja White (Rie Murakami) who actually are married irl
I mean, if you remember how Kakurangers got their power, they were given by their ancestors. So, maybe at one point, they are going to repeat the same cycle to Goro's batch
remeber not all yokai are evil remeber zashikiwarashi the child yokai who just wanted to have fun and make friends. and fun fact the actor playing the yokai with dreads is the original suit actor of Ninja Red and Mr. Kamen Rider himself Seiji Himothy Takaiwa!!!!
The look on their faces on 1:17, they looked so pleased to be back! 🥰 I'm so glad the fans got this. I know Sentai has been doing these "x years after" specials, but it was with more recent ones like SPD or Gokaiger. As someone who enjoyed the one previous to this one, Dairanger, i'm happy to see Kensuke Tsuchiya and his twin bro (the blue beetleborg!) reprise their Kakuranger roles. I wish they'd done this with Dairanger while the 6 were still around. I'll check the special out, here's to more 90s Sentai/PR reunions 😁!
Every points that i loked about this anniversary: - Goro is played by Motoki Ohmori, guy who sang Fire Force opening - Vul Eagle II actor is still alive and doing okay - Seiji Takaiwa and his wife returns, but as ninja red and white suit actors - Tsumuri got beaten by the power of boomers - Ninningers & Hurricanegers cameos at the ending
This special alongside Once and Always are some of the best anniversary specials with the amount of care and attention to it and everyone’s still got it in terms of acting like how their characters are back then.
Now I want a Jetman 30+ years after imagine they debut jet green from the manga and the peace between Jetman and shadow Jetman.. like in the manga can also be a tribute to there favorite fallen a-hole I mean partner Gai/ jet-black since he was killed in the last episode of jetman
i started watching kakuranger after watching this new special. im honestly not sure why i hadent checked out kakuranger before but im loving it so far! im on episode 5 rn.
Watching Kakuranger for the first time in 2002 makes this 30th anniversary special and nostalgic for me, as I get to see all the actors in their original roles again. Junior (Gashadokuro) stole my attention. He sacrificed his life for his son, which made me cry during that scene. It was also great to see Muteki Shogun again without recycled footage. Although the scene with Ninjaman is minimal and not have a mecha battle but overall I still enjoyed this anniversary movie
It’s so funny in the special, he was the only one that’s fit for his age after they transformed and realize the suit they worn when they were younger were really tight.
I was hoping for a Bioman 40 years anniversary movie with the OG members acting as mentors or parents to the new ones. But it's already past the halfway of the year so maybe the 50th anniversary movie might be possible.
This also is my favorite Sentai Season and it made me so happy to see it come back with a special. I loved this special and it just made me appreciate this season even more and it’s amazing characters.
Maybe it is setting up for the next sentai to pick up where this left off, idk though, I got chills when I saw the clip of them morphing and the music hit. It’s such a great series
16:06 As someone who's been getting into Super Sentai recently and also as a big anime fan, hearing that Kazuki Yao is the voice of Ninjaman and also that he's stepping down as the voice of Franky from One Piece... I think Kakuranger is next on my list 🥲
Man, Kakuranger is one of my favorite Sentai series, alongside Dairanger. I wish these two Sentai had more movies, especially Dairanger. By the way RIP Daigo
Kakuranger is my second favorite Sentai series, so it being your favorite makes total sense. The show is just so damn good and Junior is my favorite Sentai villain overall. Was happy they found a way to bring him back. I really love the entire structure of Kakuranger and of course it's nice to see Yokai be threatening. I was very impressed with this 30th movie. It was so much fun and felt like something Sugimura would have written had he still been with us. To answer your question about Ninninger and Gokaiger, those are different universes from Kakuranger. Remember, both Gokaiger and Ninninger also have the same Shrukinger in them that died in Hurricaneger. I pretty much look at it that there's the main series universe, and then the VS universe.
@@ChristianAntwan Yeah. There's too many series that would contradict each other if they all took place in the same universe. A perfect example is Ohranger. It takes place in 1999, but so does GoGoFive and I don't see any demons runnings around in Ohranger nor do I see half of the world conquered in GoGoFive.
I knew I loved Christian Antwan,BUT I knew I really loved Christian Antwan when bro said Kakuranger was his favourite sentai Kakuranger is my 2nd Favourite sentai of all time(Granted I’ve only seen 7 sentai) but boy is that shit Peak (Also Christian do a video on GoGoV and then I’ll really love you)
A theory on why Nekomaru, but I supposed during the Legendary War prior to Gokaiger, most of the Super Sentai Robots were destroyed by the Zangyak Empire. No doubt the Nekomaru would have been destroyed or badly damaged too in the war. As for the Yokai, they lost a majority of their power after they sealed Daimou in the Sealing Door. And not all Yokai are evil, some were living simple lives like humans
The only reason I stopped watching Kakuranger cause I skipped all the way to the “ Suddenly, Poor!” Episode and got instant trauma, but I’m willing to look past it and try again , after looking at the 30th anniversary thing
Dude, serious question, are you related to the guy who does Star Wars Theory?? You guys have the same kind of energy and even the way you react to things its kind of uncanny. Like I'm blown away from this, check him out if your not because I cant be the only one who thinks this is weird as hell. I just found your channel but yeah.....LOL
I mean makes sense a little bit that red is the only one that shows up usually in a crossover there is still 4 other changers keeping the door closed but what do I kbow I havent gotten to kakurangers yet
Im surprised mrs green apple vocalist Motoko is playing a role here 🥺 can we get him play the op with the band? i haven’t watched the reunion episode yet
I didn't know that they did 30 year specials!!! Toei shows sentai the respect it deserves. Unlike the Power Rangers franchise which is a glorified toy commercial and dumpster fire.

@yta5256 thank you for the comment. I learned a lot. You're the best.
" They can't just leave it in a Cliffhanger! "
Ninningers, Waiting for their 10th Anniversary: " Soon. Just you wait. "
For those who don't knew:
HurricaneBlue, HurricaneYellow, and StarNinger made a cameo during the ending dance.
I sense Toei may be giving us a Big Three Ninja Sentai team up.
And the Ozu Family were having a reunion
@@NikkoNikkoYeet I'm assuming they'll make a decision based on the reception for the special
5:58 the Yokai that Sasuke is talking to are played by the suit actors of Ninja Red (Seiji Takaiwa) and Ninja White (Rie Murakami) who actually are married irl
was about to say lol I saw him and thought about Kamen Rider
I mean, if you remember how Kakurangers got their power, they were given by their ancestors. So, maybe at one point, they are going to repeat the same cycle to Goro's batch
remeber not all yokai are evil remeber zashikiwarashi the child yokai who just wanted to have fun and make friends. and fun fact the actor playing the yokai with dreads is the original suit actor of Ninja Red and Mr. Kamen Rider himself Seiji Himothy Takaiwa!!!!
yes, some who are evil because of how human treats them, while some just outright evil incarnate.
@@akbarrmd7714 yokai are born from emotions mainly negative
@@TrevKriderX1Fourze there's also Tsukumogami, yokais born from discarded objects.
@@akbarrmd7714 hell yeah or enraenra which were born from furnace smoke. and car exhaust in modern times

@@HenshinFanatic 💔✨💚
I love Kakuranger because the intro theme. Plus, Black’s English accent when he speaks Japanese is top notch.
"Hey you! See you again."
12:03 As soon as I heard Kane say "No problem", I immediately went "WAIT! THAT KAMEN RIDER DAIMON!!"
My only gripe is there is no remake of "Today is Friday in California." 🤣🤣🤣
Every points that i loked about this anniversary:
- Goro is played by Motoki Ohmori, guy who sang Fire Force opening
- Vul Eagle II actor is still alive and doing okay
- Seiji Takaiwa and his wife returns, but as ninja red and white suit actors
- Tsumuri got beaten by the power of boomers
- Ninningers & Hurricanegers cameos at the ending
To add the kane kosugi glazing he is "him" such badass and one of the great ambbasador for tokufans in the west (since his english is native speaker)
Everybody came back just to see Jiraiya. Kane Kosugi did a great job.
Good to see everybody else, too
This special alongside Once and Always are some of the best anniversary specials with the amount of care and attention to it and everyone’s still got it in terms of acting like how their characters are back then.
Is his father in this
Now I want a Jetman 30+ years after imagine they debut jet green from the manga and the peace between Jetman and shadow Jetman.. like in the manga can also be a tribute to there favorite fallen a-hole I mean partner Gai/ jet-black since he was killed in the last episode of jetman

My man, Kane Kosuge is Back
It’s so funny in the special, he was the only one that’s fit for his age after they transformed and realize the suit they worn when they were younger were really tight.
@mrdude88 I love that joke, kane in real life is still acting and actively working, so it'd make sense he's the only one keeping in shape
kakuranger was one of my favorite sentais along with liveman, kyoryuger and gokaiger and dairanger
9:59 Where are the MegaRanger, Go busters or the other technological sentai teams.
I was hoping for a Bioman 40 years anniversary movie with the OG members acting as mentors or parents to the new ones. But it's already past the halfway of the year so maybe the 50th anniversary movie might be possible.
This also is my favorite Sentai Season and it made me so happy to see it come back with a special. I loved this special and it just made me appreciate this season even more and it’s amazing characters.
Didn‘t know there is a new Kakuranger special. Yay for more Ninja Specials!
Maybe it is setting up for the next sentai to pick up where this left off, idk though, I got chills when I saw the clip of them morphing and the music hit. It’s such a great series
It’s Super Sentai, they have to share the love with the other Sentai show.
The theme song is so good!
16:06 As someone who's been getting into Super Sentai recently and also as a big anime fan, hearing that Kazuki Yao is the voice of Ninjaman and also that he's stepping down as the voice of Franky from One Piece... I think Kakuranger is next on my list 🥲

Dai is my #1 and Kaku is #2.

That's probably the best explanation. Like every show takes place in it's own universe but there's 1 where they all exist together lol.
@@ChristianAntwan Yeah. There's too many series that would contradict each other if they all took place in the same universe. A perfect example is Ohranger. It takes place in 1999, but so does GoGoFive and I don't see any demons runnings around in Ohranger nor do I see half of the world conquered in GoGoFive.
It would be hilarious if it's revealed this was the setup to the 2025 Sentai, with Goro as the Red Ranger
I would love that!
loved the unc special tbh
Glad you were moved by basically every shot!
17:32
Kaku-Yellow: YOU’RE AMAZING IN YOUR OWN WAY!!! :D
Kaku-Blue: NEVER GIVE UP, KEEP ON MOVING FORWARD!!! :D
Better than Alien Rangers and I like Jiraiya/Ninja Black for his speaking in English.
Kakuranger is also my favorite Sentai! I loved the special, there seemed to be a teaser in the outro dance.
One of my favorite seasons of Sentai. Seriously need to watch this and the Faiz 20th anniversary movie.
8:20 ...okay...what did Sasuke see?
Good on you getting sponsored ! 👍🏻
I knew I loved Christian Antwan,BUT I knew I really loved Christian Antwan when bro said Kakuranger was his favourite sentai Kakuranger is my 2nd Favourite sentai of all time(Granted I’ve only seen 7 sentai) but boy is that shit Peak
(Also Christian do a video on GoGoV and then I’ll really love you)
I've seen the 3 sentai seasons that made MMPR and I''m so glad Jiraiya is still the hot one
The ending maybe just to tell something like "Kakuranger's fight will continue!"
The Unc Squad still got it after 30 years, THAT'S HOW A SENTAI LEGACY SHOULD BE!
8:41 yeah when i watched this i was like "is that tsumuri actress??"
I wish there was one for Megaranger.
Same
I’m sure there will be something. We just got to wait until 2027 when it turns 30 years old.
that door being so close to being open scares me
Toei is like, as long it's an anniversary, we do it.
So hoping for Timeranger 25 years after.
The theme songs are in HD on streaming through the anniversary soundtracks
I'm stealing "Ghoul zone"
@@Locked_Character Ghoul Zone
10:15 one of them I believe played Kirinranger from dairanger
A theory on why Nekomaru, but I supposed during the Legendary War prior to Gokaiger, most of the Super Sentai Robots were destroyed by the Zangyak Empire. No doubt the Nekomaru would have been destroyed or badly damaged too in the war.
As for the Yokai, they lost a majority of their power after they sealed Daimou in the Sealing Door. And not all Yokai are evil, some were living simple lives like humans
Pretty sure they’re retcon the gokaiger stuffs maybe not ninninger given the end dance surprise cameo.
Kakuranger is awesome and I'm glad it got its 30th Anniversary special ❤️🤍💛🩵🖤
This is a reminder Tsuruhime is not in her 50s yet she is in mid forties.
Here is the math 15-16 + 30 = 45-46 (mid forties)
The only reason I stopped watching Kakuranger cause I skipped all the way to the “ Suddenly, Poor!” Episode and got instant trauma, but I’m willing to look past it and try again , after looking at the 30th anniversary thing
This gonna make my weekend lol
Not all installment gets an anniversary, some of them are no longer complete, some are really old even though they are still complete
5:33 you what?!
he freakin' it 😮
Damn dude, if only I was going to PMC this year I'd love to hang out.
I want goro to be the 50th sentai, along with the boy from Gokaiger
Dude, serious question, are you related to the guy who does Star Wars Theory?? You guys have the same kind of energy and even the way you react to things its kind of uncanny.

"It's Friday in California"
where can i watch this? WHERE?! SOMEONE TELL ME PLEASE!
If you google it and add the word "Subbed" a few links should pop up.
I mean makes sense a little bit that red is the only one that shows up usually in a crossover there is still 4 other changers keeping the door closed but what do I kbow I havent gotten to kakurangers yet
Kakuranger's original theme was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Kane Kosugi nearly 50 but he still rocks in Sasuke
My favorite is Kyuranger 😩🙏🏿 I'm a big outer space geek
Best video ever
Still have the best sentai/ranger suits
Im surprised mrs green apple vocalist Motoko is playing a role here 🥺 can we get him play the op with the band?
i haven’t watched the reunion episode yet
I never watch kakuranger , but you made me curious about it. Actually I’m watching boonboomger and ultraman Arc😊
Even though Chie Tanabe wasn’t cast in it Kakuranger act 3 was a good movie
16:47 buddy, you just said to have fun with it
Where can I watch this!? Moved to Norway and have been missing the super sentai shows😢
God this special rocks
It’ll be cool to see you at pmc
Kakuranger ninja ninja!
This > Once and Always
I’m thinking I should really watch the series. What do you say?
I've been trying to watch the special myself, but I can't find it. Where can I see it?
Where can I watch this
Where do we watch this at?
Its out?!?!
Sounds like dairangers especially kibaranger and his mark
Kakuranger is the best, no contest
Are you going to do the review of kamen rider gavv trailer
Where can we watch Sentai in the US?
Tubi has some
Best mecha for me
golden knight goro
Didn't junior die after he killed sandayu
I heard some cracking in their back😅
Can we get the shirtless pic anyhow 😮
Is the black ninja still American
They really should have made it the 18 year old speak brain rot like make him say gyatt
I didn't know that they did 30 year specials!!!
Toei shows sentai the respect it deserves.
Unlike the Power Rangers franchise which is a glorified toy commercial and dumpster fire.
Dont get me wrong...there are some good seasons in Power Rangers... i just wish it got more respect like sentai did.
Yeah 100%
Ninja Red! Sauske!
Jetman is the best Sentai series.
Only if Christian played for my team...... Ugh!!!!
Best Sentai series and worst PR series.
Tru true
KAK30
annoyed @ ninja man showing up bc no shirtless pic on twitter
The mighty Morphin alien 👽 rangers are awesome 😎
"alien ranger" 💀
bro this is kakuranger,way better than that adaptation
Stop that!
Wow, no body actually ask if alien ranger are Cool but nooo… it kinda lame since it not even a ninja…
