[Fiery Classics] Super Sentai Theme Songs: Historic Openings & Endings (1–10)
Secret KakurangerTū Chī Chen
An energizing eurobeat opening theme for Ninja Sentai Kakuranger, punctuated by the sounds of drums and hyoshigi clappers.
Its masterful blend of Japanese and Western elements draws listeners straight into the story’s world.
The lyrics are especially unique, depicting ninja exploits from a third-party perspective—neither hero nor villain.
The song served as the theme for the tokusatsu drama of the same name that aired in 1994, and it’s performed by Takashi Toshi-mi himself, who also composed it.
The playful anecdote of him concealing his identity at the time under the name Two Chee Chen adds extra charm.
The fact that the cassette release ranked fifth on the 1995 year-end chart speaks to its popularity.
It’s the perfect track when you want to get pumped up with a nostalgic hero song.
Hurricaneger, at your service!Takatori Hideaki
Ninpu Sentai Hurricaneger, which aired in 2002.
Because the initial team consisted of just three warriors, it probably felt a bit lacking for kids.
However, as ninjas from different schools joined forces, things became quite lavish by the end.
The English-speaking Shurikenger especially stood out.
The theme song is Hideaki Takatori’s “Hurricaneger Sanjo!”
Samurai Sentai ShinkengerSaikikku Rabā
Airing from February 15, 2009 to February 7, 2010, this Super Sentai series was the first to use samurai as its motif—an unusual concept for the franchise.
The Red is the lord, with the others as his retainers, establishing a clear hierarchy among the members.
The theme song is fun, featuring Japanese-style instruments like the shamisen and koto, paired with lyrics that tread the line of being comical.
It’s performed by Psychic Lover.

I’m the one and only.
This track, sung by MORISAKI WIN, is the opening theme for the 46th Super Sentai series, Avataro Sentai Donbrothers.
With lyrics by Nemuko Oikawa and composition/arrangement by Fuwari, it’s a high-energy, festival-style song packed with call-and-response shouts.
The dance-rock sound blends festival-evoking phrases with a four-on-the-floor beat, paired with lyrics that deliver a message of self-affirmation.
Included on the single “Avataro Sentai Donbrothers Theme Song,” released to coincide with the show’s premiere in March 2022, it ranked high on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart.
The limited edition featured special specifications that linked with toys appearing in the show, delighting fans.
It’s a fiery Sentai song perfect for dancing with kids or for moments when you want to get pumped up and energized!
Busters, ready go!Takahashi Hideyuki
Aired from February 26, 2012 to February 10, 2013, Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters uses “spies” as its motif in both appearance and action, and it incorporates computer-related elements in its presentation.
It also aimed to ‘reform’ the Super Sentai series, being the first team name not to include the suffix “-ger.” The opening theme is “Busters Ready Go!”
Steady-PON-PONbundorio bunderasu
This song, unveiled in Bakuage Sentai Boonboomger, which began airing in March 2024, is the first-ever character-song ending theme in the history of the Super Sentai series.
Sung by Bundolio Bunderas (voiced by Rica Matsumoto), the show’s in-story mechanic, it features choreography you can dance to even while seated and a lively dance-pop sound sprinkled with the onomatopoeic “bun-bun.” Kentaro Sonoda handled the lyrics, composition, and arrangement, delivering a bright message about staying true to yourself that appeals to both kids and adults.
The theme song CD, “Bakuage Sentai Boonboomger Theme Song,” was released in April 2024 and peaked at No.
21 on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart.
It was used from episode 2 through episode 43, and again from episode 45 to episode 47, and has become a family favorite that everyone can hum along to.
It’s the perfect track for a morning energy boost or for moving your body together with your kids.
