Ressha Sentai ToQger (烈車戦隊トッキュウジャー, Ressha Sentai Tokkyūjā) is a Japanese television series, the 38th installment in Toei Company's Super Sentai series, following Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger. It premiered on TV Asahi affiliates on February 16, 2014, joining Kamen Rider Gaim in the Super Hero Time programming block. The series has a train motif, and unlike previous series where the heroes are named after colors, the heroes in ToQger are numbered and regularly swap colors during battle.[2]

The series' main characters made a cameo appearance in the film Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger vs. Go-Busters: The Great Dinosaur Battle! Farewell Our Eternal Friends, and appeared in a special meet-and-greet and press conference at Tokyo Dome City in late January 2014.

Story

Only those with a great Imagination (イマジネーション, Imajinēshon) can see the mystical railway known as the Rainbow Line (レインボーライン, Reinbō Rain), on which run massive trains known as Ressha (烈車)[Note 1] are driven by six warriors. These six warriors, known as the ToQgers (トッキュウジャー, Tokkyūjā),[Note 2] protect Earth's peace from the evil forces of the Shadow Line (シャドーライン, Shadō Rain) who are using the fear and sadness of those they are abducting to establish their own railway to consume the world in darkness.

Episodes

As the motif for ToQger is trains, the episodes are called "stations" (, eki).

Notes

  1. ^ "Ressha" (烈車) is a Japanese play on words, replacing the first kanji in the word for "train" (列車, ressha) with the identically pronounced kanji "", which means "extreme" or "fierce" and is found in a word that can be translated as "hero" (烈士, resshi).
  2. ^ "ToQger" (トッキュウジャー, Tokkyūjā) a portmanteau of the Japanese words for "express train" (特急, tokkyū) and "Ranger" (レンジャー, Renjā).
