Meanwhile Rio seeks more power, leading him down the path to the JyuGenKyo. Bae is separated from Mele, and only his GekiJyu Fly-Ken can save…. Gou?! Will Bae’s power and Gou’s Iron Will be enough?

under Metal Heroes

A sad bit of news today. Veteran tokusatsu actor Toshiaki Nishizawa has passed away at age 77. Nishizawa is perhaps best known by toku fans for his lengthy role as Commander Qom in the first Metal Hero Series Uchuu Keiji Gavan and his continuation of that role in Uchuu Keiji Sharivan and Uchuu Keiji Shaider. True to his character Nishizawa even returned to play Commander Qom in the recent Uchuu Keiji Gavan The Movie.

Mr. Nishizawa lost a long battle with lung cancer today at a Tokyo Hospital. His passing comes at a time when Metal Heroes are in a full revival, and the legacy of Mr. Nishizawa and Commander Qom will not be forgotten. As the newest Space Sheriff, Geki Jumonji, would say “leave light in the dust.”

Yet another photo from the Super Megaforce filming has appeared via Instagram. This time, the photo confirms the appearance of Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger’s sixth member: Gokai Silver!

Interestingly the photo from the film set shows him fighting alongside the Megaforce Rangers in their Goseiger suits against Dial, the monster from the Abaranger Tribute Episode (Gokaiger 29). A second photo shows the Megaforce rangers preparing to change into their Gokaiger form, with Silver present. This seems to confirm that Gokai Silver will indeed be his own entity rather then a Gokai Change of some kind. Though it is still unknown in what capacity he’ll appear in, or even who’ll play Gokai Silver.
