TV-Asahi has officially announced that the Super Sentai franchise will come to an end after fifty years, with No. 1 Sentai Gozyuger being the final series under the banner.
The recently-announced PROJECT R.E.D. will take over the Super Sentai timeslot, serving as an option to launch new heroes and franchises.
Toei has announced a new tokusatsu project intending to focus on heroes beyond the realms of Kamen Rider and Super Sentai–
This new venture is titled Project R.E.D.– short for Records of Extraordinary Dimensions.
The first hero of this new Project R.E.D. was previously hinted at via trademark: Space Sheriff Gavan Infinity! Infinity is a new story set apart from the original Gavan series but hopefully retaining the spirit of the first production.
A partial teaser for the new Gavan Infinity suit is shown, hinting at this new hero with a red metallic armor suit.
Further details about Project R.E.D. and Space Sheriff Gavan Infinity are expected in the near future!
A new trademark filed by Toei hints at the return of the Metal Hero franchise by the infamous Space Sheriff Gavan!
This new registration for Space Sheriff Gavan Infinity is now confirmed, offering a chance to see his effect one more time.
Could this new project be the long rumored replacement for the Super Sentai franchise? Only time will tell!
This past weekend was Los Angeles Comic Con (LA Comic Con) and for the first time ever, Kamen Rider was officially in attendance at its own dedicated booth. With special thanks to Toei, we can share a recap of the events, including the panel with Kamen Rider Zeztz producer Hideaki Yanaka and a video recap from Toei.
Here are the highlights from Kamen Rider‘s first ever official LA Comic Con appearance:
Here is Kamen Rider Zeztz producer Hideaki Yanaka with a few words for the appearance of Kamen Rider in the United States:
“The passion from the fans has been even more incredible than I expected. Meeting Kamen
Rider fans not just from the local area but from around the world who came a long way to be
here has been truly inspiring. It is through the support of passionate fans like you that this series
will continue to grow and thrive globally.”
Yanaka also spoke on the creation of Kamen Rider Zeztz and his vision for the franchise:
“From the start, ZEZTZ was created with international fans in mind, while also staying true to the
old Kamen Rider series. The series modernizes the story and concept so new audiences can
understand what makes Kamen Rider unique, while including Easter eggs and callbacks to past
series for longtime fans to enjoy. Our goal was to create something that Western audiences
could relate to, similar to American superheroes.”
To conclude – here is a video recap of Kamen Rider Zeztz at LA Comic Con 2025! Enjoy! Mission start!

One day when badly injured Baku finds himself in a dream world, recruited by an organization named CODE to fight creatures called Nightmares responsible for attacks on humans.
Because of the Nightmare attacks two police officers- Tetsuya & Nasuka will pursue both Zeztz and the monsters.
Baku’s greatest ally is his younger sister Minami (actress Yagi Miki.) Joining CODE will bring forth a new rival named Nox (Furukawa Yuki)who helps guide the Nightmares into reality.
*Zeztz’ motorcycle will take on a robotic form- becoming a character known as ZERO voiced by actor Jay Kabira.
Veteran Kamen writer Yuya Takahashi will return for this new series, with fellow Rider veteran Kazuya Kamihoruchi directing.
The opening theme for the series is VISIONS by NAQT VANE.
Kamen Rider Zeztz premieres September 7 2025!
Ever since the popular battle royale shooting game Fortnite added Snake-Eyes from G.I. Joe a couple of years ago (along with a special edition Snake-Eyes Fortnite figure from Hasbro), insiders and fans have speculated and even predicted that the Power Rangers would one day become part of Fortnite. And after years of hype and letdowns, the rumors have come true.
The Chapter 6 Season 4 update for Fortnite – coming August 7th 2025 – will feature the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers (alongside Halo). Exact details are still unknown as of the time of this story but verified leakers have stated that the core five Mighty Morphin Power Rangers (Red, Black, Blue, Yellow, and Pink) will be available, with the popular Green Ranger (and White Ranger) coming via the Season Battle Pass. The Dino Megazord is also suggested to be available in September and will likely play into Fortnite‘s story.
Fortnite is a free-to-play online battle royale shooting game by Epic Games and is arguably one of the most successful and profitable games of all time. The release coincides with the release of both the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Re-Ignition toy line and 4K remastered show on Netflix.
