posted on by Egan Loo
Bandai began streaming the first promotional video for Karin Ogino).
The trio live in Akihabara's Electric Town among other otaku. When they learn that a malevolent entity plans to annihilate their neighborhood, they become warriors to wipe out evil — with the help of super gear created by a beautiful and brilliant genius.
The staff of Akibaranger boasts several live-action special-effects (tokusatsu) and anime veterans, such as director Ryuta Tazaki (Eden of the East).
Despite being a formal Toei production, it has "Unofficial" in its title to separate it from the "official" Super Sentai titles such as Tokumei Sentai Gobusters — something that Akiba Red discovers in the first scene of the video. The cast will appear at an advance screening in Akihabara on, appropriately enough, April 1.
