It's a strange feeling. Due to the nature of the franchise's continuous airing schedule on television, any hardcore Super Sentai fan may find themselves caught between opposing emotions around this time of year.

The next cast in line to join the swelling ranks of the Super Sentai franchise makes up not one super-team, but two.

Not only that, but these teams are being set against each other as enemies and rivals. The official ti...
