The {{nihongo|Super Sentai Series|スーパー戦隊シリーズ|Sūpā Sentai Shirīzu}} is a Japanese superhero team media franchise consisting of television series and films produced by Toei Company and Bandai, and aired by TV Asahi.{{Cite web |last=Souza |first=Ivan de |date=2025-01-01 |title=Super Sentai: conheça TODOS os esquadrões japoneses! |url=https://tokusatsu.blog.br/super-sentai/ |access-date=2025-03-12 |website=TOKU BLOG |language=pt-BR}} The shows are of the tokusatsu genre, featuring live action characters and colorful special effects, and are aimed at children, teens and young adults. Super Sentai airs alongside the Kamen Rider series in the Super Hero Time programming block on Sunday mornings. In North America, the Super Sentai series is best known as the source material for the Power Rangers series.{{cite web |title=CSR Report 2009 |url=https://www.bandainamco.co.jp/cgi-bin/releases/index.cgi/file/view/8241?entry_id=5838 |publisher=Bandai Namco Group |access-date=9 February 2021 |archive-date=5 June 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230605035307/https://www.bandainamco.co.jp/cgi-bin/releases/index.cgi/file/view/8241?entry_id=5838 |url-status=live }}

Series overview

{{More citations needed section|date=July 2015}}

In every Super Sentai series, the protagonists are a team of people who – using either wrist-worn or hand-held devices – transform into superheroes and gain superpowers – color-coded uniforms, signature weapons, sidearms, and fighting skills – to battle a group of otherworldly supervillains that threaten to take over the Earth. In a typical episode, the heroes thwart the enemies' plans and defeat an army of enemy soldiers and the monster of the week before an enlarged version of the monster confronts them, only to be defeated once again when the heroes fight it with their super robot mecha.

For a time, Sentai series chose to set themselves in their own unique fictional universes; however, beginning in the 1990's, incarnations have retroactively made it so nearly every Sentai series has occurred within the same universe with rare exceptions, and modern series now maintain that nearly all Sentai series (as well as a majority of Toei's other tokusatsu hero series) occur in the same setting, just with the other series not commonly referenced when unneeded to allow a running series to tell the story its creators wish to without the need to actively factor decades of continuity in. Beginning with J.A.K.Q. Dengekitai vs. Gorenger, Various TV, video, and film specials as well as in-canon storyline episodes feature a team-up among two or more teams, often clarifying and maintaining the now-commonplace inter-series continuity, which makes it difficult to dis-associate the greater franchise's entries from each other unless a specific entry detaches itself from the greater majority. The Sentai series Zenkaiger proposed that both a standalone and unified perspective of Sentai continuity is simultaneously true; that there are worlds where just any Sentai series occurs in a standalone format, as well as the main timeline in which Toei's series collectively occur; generally seen as a way for Toei to acknowledge their own longstanding inconsistencies and continuity errors with regards to the writing of team-up events and the changing expectations of storytelling over time.

The first two Super Sentai series were created by Shotaro Ishinomori, then known for the 1971–1973 Kamen Rider TV series and the long-running manga Cyborg 009. He developed Himitsu Sentai Gorenger, which ran from 1975 to 1977, and J.A.K.Q. Dengekitai, released in 1977. Toei Company put the franchise on hiatus in 1978, collaborating with Marvel Comics to produce a live-action Spider-Man series, which added giant robots to the concept of tokusatsu shows. The giant robot concept was carried over to Toei and Marvel's next show, Battle Fever J, released in 1979, and was then used throughout the Super Sentai series. The next two series Denshi Sentai Denjiman and Taiyo Sentai Sun Vulcan had Marvel copyrights and co-productions, despite no influence. Subsequently, the remainder of the series has been solely produced by Toei Company.
