Bakuage Sentai Boonboomgers’ BunViolet Officially Revealed

under Super Sentai

Toei has officially introduced the world to the sixth member of the 48th Super Sentai series Bakuage Sentai Boonboomger!

The new Ranger BunViolet is Homura Sakito a hitman who has been away from his homeworld of Earth for the last ten years, adventuring with his partner robot Bun Diesel.

Actor Miyazawa Yu portrays Homura, describing the character as “a person with great darkness in his heart living in a desperate method to wipe it away.”

Veteran voice actor Hanae Natsuki will bring Bun Diesel to life; this character is described as “a retired racer with a roundabout way of speaking.”

BunViolet is set to debut in the 16th episode of Bakuage Sentai Boonboomger, currently scheduled to air on June 16 2024!

    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

    Suddenly, there will be a return to practical effects as an experiment.

    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.

    In Japan, bun-bun is typically an onomatopoeia for buzzing or swinging something around like a baseball bat, along the lines of “whoosh.” But the romaji is clearly intended to evoke “boom boom,” like and explosion or crashing sound.

    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.
