Shuriken Sentai Ninninger premiers on February 15th!
A plethora of new images for the 39th Super Sentai Series have been uploaded online! These were officially released during last weekends’ press conference, which introduced the Ninningers to the world.
In addition to the fantastic new looks at ShurikenJin and the Ninninger fighting styles, we also learned a bit more about the story behind this new series:
*The plot will involve searching for the 48 Sealing Shurikens that were originally used to trap the Fanged Demon Army. Some of the Shurikens are used by the Ninningers, a few have been taken by the Yokai- and the rest are missing for now.

The official reveal of the 39th Super Sentai Series occurs this weekend in Japan! We now have some remarkable new details about the story and production in this new series. With thanks to The Tokusatsu Network for translations-
*Series producer Naomi Takebe states the series will focus on anything fun and include some extensive new stuntwork. TV-Asahi producer Chihiro Inoue suggests that Ninninger will contain several reworks of established Sentai formula in order to create heroes that all viewers will cheer for.
*Long-time special effects director Hiroshi Wakita was responsible for the main Mecha, ShuriKenJin. Wakita suggested combining every major gimmick into a single series because he had grown bored with recent themes.
In addition we learned several new details about the new villain group in this series!
*The Kiba Oni Army seek to restore their greatest general, Gangetsu. To accomplish this, the Army must gather the power of fear from humans.
*The Army create Yokai by attaching 1 of their 48 magical artifacts known as Sealing Shurikens to everyday objects, mutating them into monsters.
Last but certainly not least we received several new images of Ninninger merchandise- including the Shinobi, the Shurikens and ShuriKenJin!

Some new information about the upcoming 39th Super Sentai Series, Shuriken Sentai Ninninger, was released at the ToQger VS Kyoryuger Movie press conference this week. We now have short character bios for the entire Ninninger team!
Takaharu/Akaninger:
A typical Red Ranger like today’s generation who dashes forward into action without thinking of a plan or strategy. He is a very optimistic person and takes care of everybody even if it turns out bad. He is the big brother of Fuka.
Yakumo/”Cloud”/AoNinger:
He has already accepted his destiny to become one of the Ninningers before coming home to Japan (after studying Western magic in England). He is the coolest and polite person in the team even thought he has only one facial expression.
Nagi/KiNinger:
A simple but fun-loving person who doesn’t even bother about his future. He quietly observes things to improve himself and being a ninja seems to fit him perfectly.
Fuka/ShrioNinger:
The youngest sister of Takaharu whom he cherishes and protects a lot. Lighthearted but has a strong will. She tends to get angry when she is depressed.
Kasumi/MomoNinger:
A smart girl who loves science and all things mechanical. She has a sharp tongue and keeps her girly side at bay without showing her emotions.
