Power Rangers SPD Japanese: Jack Morphs!

With the release of the Toei Hero Club DVD of Power Rangers SPD, here's the clip of the Japanese dub of the show which features Ryuji Sainei's voice as Jack Landors aka SPD Red Ranger. Power Rangers SPD also airs at Toei Channel.


To be honest, I am used with dubbed toku since I grew up watching it but I still find it weird that I am hearing Ban's voice coming out from Jack's mouth, seriously. But when he already transformed into SPD Red Ranger, the transition was flawless and it felt natural in my opinion.

Power Rangers SPD Japanese Press Conference

Here's the press conference for the Japanese dub of Power Rangers SPD which featured the original Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger cast (less Mako Ishino) alongside with Rie Tanaka who plays the role of Kat Manx, Swan's Power Rangers counterpart.


The press conference features the talk about their respective roles in SPD and its differences with their Dekaranger counterparts. Notable ones include Ayumi Kinoshita talking about how lucky their SPD counterparts since they are wearing pants and not skirts. Power Rangers SPD will premiere on Toei Channel this August 8th with two episodes airing back-to-back. Also, pre-orders are now up for the Toei Video release of the series in which the first volume contains the first two episodes of the series dubbed in Japanese.

Power Rangers SPD Japanese Dub Update

The official release date for Power Rangers SPD's Japanese dub on Toei Channel has just been released! It will premiere on August 8th at 5:00pm for an hour with two episodes airing back-to-back.

Just like the Japanese release for Kamen Rider Dragon Knight, Power Rangers SPD will also have a new set of episode title names for its Japanese release. Here are the titles for the upcoming episodes along with its Japanese name equivalent.

1. Beginnings Part 1「新生Bスクワッド誕生（前編）」("The Newly Born B-Squad" Part 1)
2. Beginnings Part 2「新生Bスクワッド誕生（後編）」("The Newly Born B-Squad" Part 2)
3. Confronted「真のリーダー」("A True Leader")
4. Walls「壁」("Wall")
5. Dogged「リック パワーアップ」 ("Power-Up RIC!")
6. A-Bridged「ブリッジ」("Bridge")
7. Sam Part 1「サム（前編）」("Sam" Part 1)
8. Sam Part 2「サム（後編）」 ("Sam" Part 2)

Interesting to note that they referred the Dekaranger cast in the episode summaries as a way to see the SPD dub. Another thing to note is that a small clip of the Power Rangers SPD dub was seen on a Smastation Special which talks about Super Sentai. In the short clip, we heard a short sample of the Japanese SPD dub which had a small nod for Dekaranger in which they first scream the word, "Roger" before saying the SPD morph call, "SPD, EMERGENCY!"

Instead of Mako Ishino voicing her Power Rangers counterpart, Rie Tanaka (Gundam SEED) will be the one voicing Doctor Katherine "Kat" Manx while Ishino is doing the show's opening narration.

Power Rangers SPD Airs in Japan!

In commemoration of Super Sentai's 35th Anniversary, Toei Channel will air Power Rangers SPD, dubbed in Japanese! The last time a Power Rangers series was dubbed and aired in Japan was Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue.

Ryuji Sainei, Tsuyoshi Hayashi Yousuke Ito, Ayumi Kinoshita, Mika Kikuchi, Tomokazu Yoshida and Tetsu Inada will do the voices of their Power Rangers counterparts, namely: Jack Landors/SPD Red Ranger, Sky Tate/SPD Blue Ranger, Bridge Carson/SPD Green Ranger, Z Delgado/SPD Yellow Ranger, Syd Drew/SPD Pink Ranger, Sam/SPD Omega Ranger (Wonder how will he react after he learns that he is a ball of light?) and Anubis "Doggie" Cruger/SPD Shadow Ranger.

Instead of Mako Ishino voicing her Power Rangers counterpart, Rie Tanaka (Gundam SEED) will be the one voicing Doctor Katherine "Kat" Manx while Ishino is doing the show's opening narration.

Power Rangers SPD takes place in the year 2025, after Earth has welcomed alien beings to live peacefully with the human race. But peace is short lived, as the planet-conquering Troobian Empire turns its destructive attention to Earth. When the Earth's first line of defense, the S.P.D. A-Squad, vanishes without trace, the protection of the planet falls to their replacements: the B-Squad Rangers, and their dog-like alien commander, Anubis "Doggie" Cruger.

When two reformed thieves join the team as the Red and Yellow S.P.D. Rangers, tensions threaten to tear them apart. With the alien threat growing stronger every moment, the Rangers must put aside their differences and go into action as one. Using teamwork, intergalactic weaponry and light-speed Zord vehicles to battle evil, they unite to become one of the ultimate forces for good: Power Rangers Space Patrol Delta.

Power Rangers SPD is set to air this August 2011 on Toei Channel. Accordingly, this will be the first Power Rangers show airing in the said channel! Hopefully, either Ninja Storm, Dino Thunder or RPM will air next!
