Toei has completed their annual Super Sentai press conference, introducing the world to the 46th Super Sentai Series Avataro Sentai DonBrothers!
The DonBrothers team consists of:
*Don Momotaro (Momoi Taro) played by Kohei Higuchi is a young man who arrived on Earth in a peach-shaped capsule as a child. He is a competent swordsman who cannot tell a lie.
*Saru Brother (Shinichi Saruhara) played by Yuki Beppu is known as “The Professor” for his analytical mindset. He fights with brute strength and can quickly spot an opponents’ weakness.
*Oni Sister (Kito Haruka) played by Shida Kohaku is the youngest of the team, an aspiring manga artist with a combat style built on tricking enemies.
*Inu Brother (Tsubasa Inuzuka) played by Totaro is a wanted fugitive at the start of the series, hunting down the one who committed the crime he is accused of. Upon transforming he becomes much shorter and faster.
*Kiji Brother (Tsuyoshi Kijino) played by Hirofumi Suzuki is the oldest of the team; as the series begins he lives a normal life compared to the others. He specializes in aerial combat attacks.
And one familiar face remains in the DonBrothers cast: Kita Komagine, currently playing Kaito Goshikida in Kikai Sentai Zenkaiger! Kaito returns in this series as the owner of a coffee shop named DonBro and with a new set of powers- transforming into ZenKaiger Black!
Rounding out the DonBrothers supporting cast is Sohkoh Wada as Jin Momoi– Don Momotaro’s foster parent. Jin found the peach-shaped capsule containing Momoi Taro as a child; after coming into contact with the child Jin stopped aging. As the series begins Jin is in prison but can appear to the others using a holographic projection of himself.
The enemies of the Avataro Sentai DonBrothers are a group known as the Brain Persons! This villain team has three core members:
*Sonoi (played by Yuya Tominaga) is the calm-headed leader who loves painting.
*Sononi (played by Amisa Miyazaki) is a woman obsessed with human affairs.
*Sonoza (played by Shinnosuke Takahashi) is a man fascinated by human emotions since he cannot control his own.
The opening theme to DonBrothers is I Am The Only One! performed by MORISAKI WIN and features a dance sequence demonstrated by the cast:
Avataro Sentai DonBrothers begins on March 6 2022!

Meet the new team!
and the villains, with their human forms.
I don't normally watch these, but I had some free time and the whole CGI + Inoue deal made me curious enough to watch. It looks decently fun, even if the CGI looks terrible and I still don't trust Inoue to not make a mess of things. Still, not like I was planning on watching this live anyways, just thought I'd chime in.
My understanding of Japanese is pretty rudimentary, but did I catch that the team is a family in this one, similarly to GoGoFive?
Maybe it's because I just finished Ultraman Trigger but the villains remind me of the Dark Giants right down to the color schemes (although the bruiser is more orange than red). Also of the Orphnoch trio - because Inoue.
Also, that new Zenkaiger...wow.
That said, I hope one of them gets an intense rivalry, not with Red but with the cartoon dog.
A new Donbrother mecha toy.
DonMomo Alter Toqger.

Wow yeah that CGI is pretty rough. And the civilian outfits looks super generic.
But the DonMomotaro suit looks excellent. And that mecha looks really cool, though I'm not sold on the ToQger combination yet.
I think the other DonBrothers member also can be transformed into robots as well.
Maybe 5 Alter Modes can be combined into a single primary giant robot formation, just like Muteki Shogun from Kakuranger.
