Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters (特命戦隊ゴーバスターズ, Tokumei Sentai Gōbasutāzu, Special Operations Squadron Go-Busters) is Japanese tokusatsu television series and the 36th entry in Toei Company's Super Sentai metaseries, following Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger. Its theme is based on spy movies and cyber technology on February 26, 2012 on TV Asahi, joining Kamen Rider Fourze and then Kamen Rider Wizard as a program featured in TV Asahi's Super Hero Time programming block. It aired from February 26, 2012 to February 10, 2013, replacing Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger and was replaced by Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger.

Some of the villains are designed by Yutaka Izubuchi; marking his return to Super Sentai character design after 1986's Choushinsei Flashman.

Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters began airing in South Korea in 2013 as Power Rangers Go-Busters.

In the United States, Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters was adapted as Power Rangers Beast Morphers; the first episode premiered on March 2, 2019. Beast Morphers was to be produced by Saban Brands but, on July 2, 2018, Hasbro would acquire all of the former company's entertainment assets, including the Power Rangers franchise.[1][2][3]

Plot

[edit]
Main article: List of Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters characters

Thirteen years ago in the New Common Era (新西暦, Shinseireki) calendar, the computer controlling the newly discovered energy source called Enetron (エネトロン, Enetoron) was infected by a virus that caused it to create the evil energy being known as Messiah who wishes to take over mankind and create a world made for machines. Though sent into Hyper Space by the scientists' sacrifice, Messiah's actions established the formation of the Energy Management Center's Special Ops Unit from three children who were caught in the crossfire, the Go-Busters, and their Buddyroids.[4][Note 1] In the present, 2012 NCE, a mysterious figure named Enter leads a group called Vaglass on incursions to gather enough Enetron to bring Messiah back. However, training for this day, the Go-Busters and their Buddyroids are deployed to combat Vaglass's Metaroids and Megazords to protect the city's Enetron from them. Later joined by Masato Jin and his Buddyroid Beet J. Stag, the Go-Busters' resolve is strengthened once they learn the true nature of their enemy and the horrors that would result should Messiah enter their world.[9]
