Sunrise has released very little information on this newest series. What we do know so far is:
The series is coming out sometime in January 2026.
Apparently it’s taking place 38 years after the original series.
Only one character has been revealed so far. That character is Gai who will wear the Rekka (aka Wildfire) armor. (If it’s still called that in the new series.) He is 14 years old.
It’s been stated that people should be able to watch this new series without needing to watch the original show.
For any further information, we just have the trailer to go by. (Fair warning, lots of images below the read more.)
HECK YES. \o3o/ ? Definitely gonna participate in this again! ?
For those who may be new: this event is a month-long challenge to create something for our favorite series for all either 30 days of June or even just a few days of June. Itâs all for fun and thereâs no pressure!
Back home and resting after this yearâs Sakura-Con! The whole weekend was fun, but the BEST moment out of everything I experienced was meeting Hideo Okamoto, hands down. Got his autograph, a photo op, and sat through the YST/RW 30th Anniversary panel all in one day.
Good news for those who couldnât be at the con with me: I recorded most of the panel! Read the vidâs description for extra info. ^__^ (Video is currently unlisted- only those who get the link can view it.) Enjoy!
The sister store to the Nakano Broadway Gallery Exhibit, aka Hakaba WEST, is continuing the celebration of the 30th Anniversary with another exhibition of art and new merchandise! Goods sold at the original exhibition back in October 2018 at Nakano Broadway will make another appearance in the Osaka branch. The event runs from March 6th, 2019, to March 21st, 2019!

On March 10th, 2019, there will also be a âspecial screeningâ of the most popular episodes, followed by a chat with Director Hamazu Mamoru and Okamoto Hideo, Armor Designer (cover artist of the 30th Anniversary Memorial Book). The screening is a ticketed event, and participants will be gifted with an exclusive âpen lightâ featuring their favorite trooper or the four masho:
Iâm loving that the 30th Anniversary is still being celebrated!
The new merch is not yet available online, but some of the original merchandise from the Nakano Broadway exhibit are still available here (and Iâm told the site does ship to the USA if the World Shopping interface is used).
