In that case... in that case... !!
That's her real voice actress, isn't it?!
And this style, is Sato Keiichi back?!
That's a dirty trick!
Hey, I can't see!
My nosebleed...
What's with these outfits?!
Uncool!
You... so they finally sent another sub-section chief!
Exactly! I'm not the president, but a sub-section chief!
I'm impressed you could tell.
I am Chief Blu-Ray!
So the new ones aren't named after parts of the city?!
Chop chop goes the Chief!
Good thing I brought this, just in case!
Wait, have I been in a delusion since I was at the figure shop?
What are you babbling about?!
None of your business!
Grand Delusion!
Huh?
Ow!
Why?!
That's right! I took the batteries out since I wasn't using it!
There they are!
Hello, Hakase?! You gotta turn the delusion ejection system off!
No way, really?!
Kozkoz! What do we need if we're messing with the delusion ejection system?
Batteries, right?!
Here.
Delusion ejection system, off!
Alright, one more time...
Grand Delusion!
Bang!
Ooh, there he is!
My first delusion battle in a while...
I'm getting fired up!
That's great and all, but neither Blue or Yellow are around, so be careful!
He doesn't seem so tough! I'll be able to handle it myself!

He was protecting this delivery case...
I get it! There must be a Penultimate Power inside!
Excuse me...
Huh?!
Potstickers?!
Whoa, the official hero!
From Akibaranger!
It's Akiba Red!
I'm a huge fan!
No matter what people say, Akibaranger is my favorite Super Sentai!
This is great, so cool! Oh, and hi!
- No, no, this is all wrong.
Wait, nevermind that! Can I get an autograph?!
Oh, I don't have anything to autograph!
Wait, I've got my phone, I can take a picture!
Please, can I get a picture?! Just one!
No, no, this isn't...
Oh, excuse me.
No, I mean, you're the official hero! I'm from the Unofficial Sentai!
After all, you're Ryuranger from Dairanger!
Oh, come on.
I'm just the restaurant mascot China Red, from Chinese Sentai, Chinaman!
China Red?!
Wait, those eyes...
No way! Chinaman actually exists?!
What do you mean?! I'm not sure why you two are so surprised!
Chinese Sentai Chinaman...
That was one of the rumored pre-production titles for Five-Star Sentai Dairanger!
The difference is that the foreheads of the pre-production helmets had eyes in them!
Then this means...
Inside there, you're just the delivery boy for a Chinese restaurant?
"Inside there"?
No, nothing like that!
All I am is China Red.
I'm really just a mascot character.
- Are you alright? - Found you!
So you were hiding here!
A m-m-m-monster!
Seriously?!
Take this! Digital-to-Analog beam!
I'm dead! Wait, I'm not?
The potstickers got re-encoded into this washed-out ravioli?!
It looks kinda tasty!
We need to run!
If you're not gonna fight, then we'd better run!
Alright, full speed ahead!
If we aren't gunning, then let's get running!
Digital-to-Analog beam!
A dead end?!
Hakase must have shut down the delusion...
What a relief!
But what?!
That was my delusion world!
So how did one of the official heroes I idolize become some kinda mascot character?!
Why?!
My children are beautiful and powerful, surpassing even their forebears...
The ultimate monsterkins!
Before my favored servants, Dairanger are but presumptuous oafs!
Yes, they should be reduced to being Chinaman...
Do not look down on me!
Akibaranger 2!
Owowowow, pain!
I was getting some stuff out the storeroom,
when I thought to check some of the Dairanger merchandise,
and all of it was...

It's just like our Itasha Robo, but taking off the Aoi-tan decals make it look official and cool!

Is now really the time?
Come on, let me enjoy this!
Chances like this don't come every day!
I know that, but this totally disproves the theory that you were in a delusion at the figure store!
No, not quite yet! Next stop is...

It's gone... it's gone!

Nagoya CGI Institute Graduation Work
DELUSIONS! (Woah Woah Wo-Woah)
...stop it, Kozkoz.
Okay.
I guess the stuff I saw at the figure store wasn't a delusion after all.
Chief Blu-Ray had a beam that could transform its targets...
Digital-to-Analog beam!
Maybe he hit Dairanger with it in my delusion, warping them into something else,
Chinese
and that's how they ended up as Chinaman, acting like local heroes.
How's that explain Akibaranger and Dairanger changing places in reality?
Maybe the Delusion World's having some kind of effect on reality somehow?
What kind of effect is that?
Like I'd know that much!
Maybe it's some kind of distortion in the Delusion World...
This song is—?
Honey!
My beloved honey!
You've come from the other side of the galaxy...
...fair-haired, with white—
- What in the—?!
You...
You picked a song that was only played once in Denjiman.
You're pretty nerdy.
You... what's your name?
Akagi Nobuo.
I'll remember that.
I am...
Akagi, what are you...
What?!
...doing, seriously?!
Once more, from the top!
If the Delusion World and reality are connected,
then beating that sub-section chief should revert everything back to normal, right?!
That's right! That should work!
I can't do it on my own.
Chief Blu-Ray was tougher than I thought.
We're... going to need three Akibarangers.
But we can't get ahold of Mitsuki...
Let's look!
I sent Aoyagi a message, even if it might not work.
But if it doesn't work...
Then let's look for a second Akiba Blue!
It's not gonna be easy to find someone highly deluded,
Blue
who also has a kanji that means "blue" in her name.
Indigo Navy
Maybe we should include variants like indigo and navy?
You're cosplaying Akiba Red, right?!
Amazing! It looks just like the real costume!
How do you know that?!
It's because I'm a mega-super-duper-HYPER fan of Five-Star Sentai Akibaranger!
But it aired before you were even born...
I mean, twenty years ago?
I saw it on cable when I was in elementary school!
Five-Star Sentai Akibaranger has never been distributed on the Toei **annel.
On To** Channel!
The Toei Cha****!
Our adventures were syndicated on the same channel as the official heroes?!
I'm Iwashimizu Luna! 16 years old, a freshman, and an up-and-coming idol!
Always-on-Duty Idol Iwashimizu Luna
Mitsuki—wait, I guess it's pronounced Luna...
Hakase, she's got the kanji for "blue"! This is fate!
Iwashimizu, would you like to be Akiba Blue?!
I guess asking all of a sudden might—
I'll do it!
Already?!
I mean, there's not many dramas that run for a whole year like Sentai anymore!
It's a perfect way to launch my career!
Launch your career?
This is so amazing!
And this turns into an AkibaLaser? That's a great way to update it!
So, it's a remake, huh?
I guess Akiba really was ahead of its time!
The times have finally caught up to it, and it's all come full circle!
Wait a minute!

Here we go!
So who's going to be directing the pilot?
No, see...
If it's Takemoto...
Director: Takemoto Noboru
I'll probably end up in a sailor uniform!
Director: Takemoto Noboru
If it's Watanabe, I'll need to go with the proper, serious, innocent vibe.
Director: Takemoto Noboru
Director: Watanabe Katsuya
Koichi Sakamoto
And if it's Sakamoto Koichi, I'll probably have to show my absolute territory, right?
Koichi Sakamoto
Amazing... you really know what all the different directors are into?
Yep! Learning that is part of the basics.
Director: Takemoto Noboru
School Uniform
Pink
I auditioned once before, but it didn't work out...
Director: Watanabe Katsuya
innocent and serious
*sparkling*
Director: Sakamoto Koichi
absolute territory
So I did a ton of research!
Over there!
There you are, sub-section chief!
You never learn, do you? This time I'll send you to hell!
Ta-da!
Hey, c'mon, let's go!
Let's go, Luna!
Grand Delusion!
Grand Delusion?
Bang!
Huh, the hairstyle's a little different...
I'm actually Akiba Blue, for real?!
What the heck is this?!
I didn't think Toei had this kind of effects tech!
Well, the thing is, see...
I didn't think they were so cutting-edge! I'm so sorry!
We'll save the explanations for later! Let's go, Akiba Blue!
Right! Here I go!
But-but...
Take that!
You better get ready...
She's pretty good!
I am so hyped that I get to be Blue!
Whoa!
Take this!
Hold it, you!
And that!
Quit throwing stuff!
This is amazing!
So there's another idiot!
Say what?
Get them, Freakers!
ArE YoU iNtO bUtTs?
What are these things?!
These goons are super-creepy!
Why is your butt in my face?!
Quit rubbing me!
I guess two of them just aren't enough!
It's wonderful to see the two of you again.
It's been so long!
It's good to see you again!
You look so different!
Thank you.
I brought you a little something.
Really?!
But since I'm here...
Nyow I'm back!
Here.
Grand Delusion!
Bang!
Get off me!
Let me go!
Time to finish you off!
Now for Digital-to-Analog, because I'm always up for some ana—
Nyot gonna say it!
Wha-?
Who's that?
Cha-ching!
Spinning punch!
Yellow!
Sorry, my business kept me busy.
Did you change your hair, too?
Boing!
Don't worry about that!
Since we're all here, it's time for the roll call, right?
Oh, you're the one I've heard about.
Great, another idiot!
When it comes to lunch, my favorite is Kitchen Gynamo!
Oh, Zonette!
AkibaRed!
Huh, was that really in the show?
Akiba Blue!
The Rising Star, Luna!
Well, this is a bit self-serving, but I actually have huge news!
There's no time, okay?
Pain is power!
Five stars, shining in the heavens!
- Unofficial Sentai— - Five-Star Sentai—
Akibaranger!
Guys, that was all wrong!
We'll work it out later!
Nyanyway, I'd say this counts as a teammate coming to the rescue!
Neato!
And that's an iron-clad victory flag!
But in episode 4 of Five-Star Sentai Akibaranger, didn't they lose despite that?
Spare me your trifling nonsense! We'll just—
Okay, seriously, you're in my way.
Here I come!
- Over there! Go over there! - Hey, here here!
Sorry about that!
Gonna kick ya!
Yellow!
Gotcha!
Blue!
Uh, right!
Like this?
How's that?!
Not like that!
Alright, time for our finishing move!
Official heroes, lend us your Penultimate Powers!
Wait, what? Was that...?
Uh, hey...
Who are these guys?
We'll explain that later, too!
Seriously, this is the cool part!
Unofficial Combination!
Oh! I remember this!
Penultimate Cannon, ready!
AkibaMeteor Cannon!
You're wide open!
Nuh uh!
Fire!
I'll have to record everything—
Alright!
And now, Chinaman should be back to normal!
- Hooray!
Wow, wow, that was amazing!
You official heroes are really something!
Good job.
Good job to you, too.
All those official heroes combining their powers, wow!
It's still not fixed?
Why?! Our finishing move totally worked!
Right, right. What's wrong?
Hello?
Could something else be causing the distortion in reality?
Sure seems like it.
That's a load of crap, you stupid jerks!
Huh?
Even if your ancestors forgive you, I sure as heck won't!
Uh, are you China White or something?
Who's that?
Another unofficial guy? Put a sock in it!
I'm the Roaring New Star, Kibaranger!
It's Dairanger time!
Not that it matters!
Because of you clowns, I'm just a shadow of who I used to be!
Why?

Today's Ending Theme
Fight! Sun Vulcan Robo ~From "Solar Sentai Sun Vulcan" (1981)
Lyrics: Yamakawa Keisuke Composed by Watanabe Chuumei Vocal by Yokoyama Yuuko (Ogino Karin)
The gigantic carrier, Jaguar Vulcan
Cosmo and Bull are taking off
When the two machines combine into one
Look, it's the birth of an invincible robot!
Change!
Sun Vulcan Robo!
Go!
Sun Vulcan Robo!
Hear the unending roar of the Vulcan Cannon!
The target is the evil Hell Satan!

- I'm an unpopular idol! - Why admit that?
- But I'll do my best and use Akibaranger to get famous! - I wouldn't say—
- I'll eat anything on TV! - Really?!
AKIBARANGER IS A WORK OF FICTION
And I like everybody!
- I'll do anything to get successful! - Anything?!
- Even if it means bloodying my hands! - Don't!
