Tonight was Toei’s annual Super Sentai press conference- introducing the world to the 48th Super Sentai team, the Bakuage Sentai Boonboomger!
The initial Boonboomger team consists of:
*BunRed/Taiya Hando portrayed by Haruhi Iuchi– a young man with a burning heart and a passion for cars; he has a hobby of rebuilding and customizing his special vehicle.
*BunBlue/Ishiro Meita played by Yuki Hayama is the teams’ technical expert with a wide array of knowledge who always acts in a professional manner.
*BunPink/Mirai Shifuto portrayed by Suzuki Miu– she is described as a bright and intelligent woman with a tendency to drive off anywhere she finds interesting.
At least two more members will join as the series goes on:
*BunBlack/Jou Akuse played by Saito Ryu– a rookie cop with a serious nature and a history of “comedic” incidents.
*BunOrange/Gemba Bureki portrayed by Satoru Soma described as a gentle but elusive man able to obtain anything he wants from others.
The lives of the Boonboomgers are changed forever thanks to the intervention of Boondorio Boonderas– a strange car shaped alien who crash-landed on Earth and now lives in BunRed’s garage supplying the team with weapons and gear. In combat, Boondorio becomes the main body of Boonboomger Robo. The character will be voiced by veteran VA Rica Matsumoto– who will also perform the ending theme song for the series.
The Boonboomgers will fight against the Space Mafia Hishiriyan! Three Generals from the group were introduced-
*Decotrade (voiced by Junichi Suwabe) is the aggressive troublesome warrior who dreams of advancing in the organization.
*Itasha (voiced by Nana Mizuki is another ambitious soldier.
*Yaiyai Yarker (voiced by Sumire Morohoshi may be the strangest member of the Generals, lacking a humanoid frame & instead appearing as a vehicular body.
Bakuage Sentai BoonBoomger begins on March 3 2024! Stay tuned to Tokunation for further updates on this new chapter in Super Sentai history!

That such a weird name. Are we getting Dynaman 2?
The next Donbrothers?
I'm guessing this is another take on the topic of explosives in honor of Dynaman's 40th anniversary.
From what I understand, Bakuage means 'shoot up', to what I assume is like fireworks shooting upwards, I wonder if the show will tone down the CG compared to Shugoddam
I'm sure people will be hoping for a new pink ranger, due to the lack of one this year.
Would be cool if they had another non-red face of the team as well, like Zenkaizer.
People have mentioned the possible connection to Dynaman, but there's also Bakuryu Sentai Abaranger which had an anniversary in 2023.
Romanization is a little off. ン before ブ would create an "m" sound, but not before ジャー. It's probably more like "Boomboonger" or "Boonboonger".
The ブンブン part has me thinking of music while the bakuage part has me thinking of raising up the volume to super high levels. Even if that's not the case the way it's worded invokes high tension of some sort to me.
As someone who stopped watching Kyoryuger primarily because they found it to be loud and obnoxious, I'm not immediately excited for this.
Bakuage, 爆上, is interesting. It can translate to like, “blast off” or “shoot up.” It can also mean just “explosion.” But it can ALSO mean a burst of laughter. 爆 on its own means laughter.
So the vibe of Bakuage Sentai Boonboomger is like, an explosion of happiness that buzzes through you.
