No.1 Sentai Gozyuger

The "Universe War" was a large-scale conflict involving 49 Super Sentai and their mecha against a threat known as Cladis. At the brink of defeat, the Sentai offered their powers, creating the "Sentai Rings" to summon the ultimate savior Tega Sword, who destroyed Cladis but also provoked the destruction and recreation of the universe with the rings scattered across the cosmos. Sometime later, five outcasts from society are given the chance to change their lives when Tega Sword chooses them to transform into the 50th Super Sentai, the Gozyugers, who are tasked with gathering the Sentai Rings (the one who assembles all of them will be granted a wish), which starts a competition not only between the group, but against the No One World Bridan, an elusive organization also searching for the rings and the "Universe Warriors", individuals who come into possession of Sentai Rings that give them the power of past Sentai, also competing to fulfill their own wishes. Things immediately heat up more upon the return of Mashiro Kumade, the first Gozyu Wolf and veteran of the Universe War, who now fights using his own set of allies as Gozyu Polar in the hopes of replacing Tega Sword as a god. In the second half of the series, the remnants of Cladis resurface and resume their plan to defeat Tega Sword while also targeting the Gozyugers and the Bridan. ==Production==

The No.1 Sentai Gozyuger trademark was registered by Toei Company on October 24, 2024, and published on November 1, 2024. Gozyuger was officially announced on December 25, 2024. A production announcement conference introducing the main cast and characters and the artists for the show's opening and ending theme songs was held on January 24, 2025 and streamed on Toei Tokusatsu Fan Club and YouTube on January 26, 2025. According to producer Daigo Matsuura, while Gozyuger does include past Sentai heroes as part of anniversary celebration series, they instead are portrayed as Universe Warriors; fellow rivals to the titular team with different characters behind the suit. This was also done to introduce preceding heroes to children and newcomers alike without the need of bringing back past actors, as Matsuura draws comparison to the Ultra Monster Gomora from Ultraman being popular amongst today's children for its recurring appearances in modern day installments of Ultraman series despite being portrayed by different suit actors. Dropping of Maya Imamori On November 8, 2025, Toei Company announced that they dropped series actress Maya Imamori from the series after an alleged underage drinking incident.

On November 15, Kohaku Shida was reported to be portraying Sumino, replacing Imamori. The episode that was originally intended to air after episode 37, , which featured Sumino as the central character, was pulled from the airing schedule and had its footage repurposed for episodes 38 and 39. However, the preview for the cancelled episode 38 accidentally aired with a re-run of Bakuage Sentai Boonboomger episode 8 on TV Asahi's satellite channel Tele Asa Channel 1 on November 10, 2025 and was posted online by fans before Toei took it down. According to location filming videos recorded by a fan posted on February 1, 2026, it was revealed that Imamori had originally filmed up until the crossover film, No.1 Sentai Gozyuger vs. Boonboomger, and at least up to episode 47 of the series.
