Go, Go, Loser Ranger Is Getting Its Own Anime

Sentai is a genre that describes a specific number of projects in Japan that follow a squad of heroes, normally, fighting against giant monsters with equally giant robots. Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers might be the biggest example of a Sentai that jumped from Japan to North America, and continues telling new stories to this day. Now, the anime world is looking to get in on the action with a new series hilariously dubbed “Go, Go, Loser Ranger!” that has a rather unique premise.

A release date for the new anime series has yet to be revealed, but a trailer and poster have given fans a first-hand look at what this twist on the Sentai genre will look like when it hits the small screen. To help in celebrating the announcement, the creator of the series had this to say via the official website:

“Thank you for choosing Go, Go Loser Ranger! as the original work. Manga production is sometimes harsh and lonely, and it’s a continuous process of throwing a ball at an empty place. Among them, I felt rewarded as if the animation was thrown back. I’m looking forward to seeing the uncool and cool Combatant D in action. I was able to keep throwing the ball because everyone was on the other side. I will do my best not to lose to the anime, so I would be happy if you continue to pick it up.”

Shonen Magazine’s Official Youtube Channel released the first trailer for the new series, with the director of Tiger And Bunny, Keiichi Sato, confirmed to be helping in bringing this television show to life:

The series first debuted as a manga thanks to Kodansha in 2021 from creator Negi Haruba, proving how quickly a popular comic can make the jump to the land of anime adaptations, with the publishers releasing the following official description of the series: 

“When the Monster Army invaded Earth thirteen years ago, the Divine Dragon Rangers rose up to stop them! With the war raging on, these great heroes are mankind’s last hope!…or are they? In truth, the invaders were subjugated within a year, forced to continue to crank out a monster a week for the Rangers to crush in front of their adoring fans! But one monster has had enough. Something has to change! He’ll rebel against the might of the Dragon Rangers and destroy them all…from the inside!”
