Hero Mama League Brings Together Three Super Sentai Heroines as Mothers
Hero Mama League is a Super Sentai crossover announced for the Toei Tokusatsu Fan Club app, gathering three heroines from Super Sentai history for a story centered on their lives as mothers balancing family with their earlier roles as world-saving warriors.
The project continued Toei’s push to keep past and secondary Sentai heroes active outside their original series, arriving alongside the Uchuu Sentai Kyuranger vs Space Squad entry in the ongoing Space Squad movie series. It followed a similar pattern to the prior year’s Space Squad: Gavan vs Dekaranger, which was paired with the smaller feature Girls in Trouble: Space Squad Episode Zero, also built around a female cast.
Nanami, Jasmine, and Houka, three Sentai heroines who have since married and started families, split their time between fighting evil and raising their children. Original actors Nao Nagasawa (HurricaneBlue, Ninpu Sentai Hurricanger), Ayumi Kinoshita (DekaYellow, Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger), and Ayumi Beppu (MagiPink, Mahou Sentai Magiranger) returned to their roles. Beppu’s involvement was noted as a surprise given MagiPink was originally written as the team’s serial dater rather than a maternal figure, unlike her sister MagiBlue. Hideya Tawada, who played StarNinger in Shuriken Sentai Ninninger, was the sole male alumnus confirmed for the project at the time of the announcement.
Hero Mama League was set to release on the Toei Tokusatsu Fan Club app on May 13, 2018.
