An official announcement of the 46th Super Sentai series Avataro Sentai DonBrothers has just been published!
This Sentai series is inspired by the folk tale Momotaro with each of the five DonBrothers taking on an appearance from a character in the legendary story.
DonBrothers’ head writer is none other than tokusatsu legend Toshiki Inoue– this will be his first Super Sentai project in 30 years! Suit actor turned action director Hirofumi Fukuzawa will remain on hand to helm the series.
Fans eager to see new Red Ranger Don Momotaro in action will not have to wait long- the character will make an introductory appearance in the 42nd episode of Kikai Sentai Zenkaiger– currently scheduled to air January 9 2022!
A press conference will be held in early February 2022 fully introducing the DonBrothers team.
Avataro Sentai DonBrothers will begin airing on March 6 2022!
the Sentai legacy lives on!

The way they romanize it as avataro has me wondering if it will have something to do with avatars, virtual worlds, etc.
'taro' basically confirms every rumour leading up to this. "Denkaiger" it isn't but all those toy leaks are real
Hm! A new variant on naming that's not -er, 5, or -man. I wonder if this will be another Sentai that finds a way to work masking/social distancing into its premise.
Another stab at video game Sentai?
finally is here.
Don...Brothers?
sounds like we're getting an all-male sentai team this time : P
Donbrothers, eh? Sounds to me like it'll be about mafia dons and brotherhood this time... interesting. Maybe Avataro is a portmanteau of the word avatar (virtual reality perhaps?) and taro (the Japanese masculine name that, as far as i remember, means boys)
Denkaiger was literally sourced from someone in these forums guessing the name.
The naming choices of both -taro and brothers also makes me wonder if they're going to do another all male Sentai. That'd certainly be one way to mix it up, I guess.
