Chouja Raideen is a hero action series built on a new worldview from the original concept of Brave Raideen, with a protagonist team that normally performs as an idol group. That idol setup drew many female fans, according to the press release.
- Chouja Raideen: junior high student Washizaki Hishou touches a "God Feather" and sees memories of Raideen's ancient battle with the Chouma. Broadcast 1996 to 1997; episodes 1 to 12 stream.
- Sentimental Journey: an omnibus with each episode on one of 12 heroines, set between the boy's transfers across 12 Japanese cities from fourth grade through junior high graduation. Episodes 1 to 6 stream.
- Sacred Seven: protagonist Tandoji Arma injured 18 schoolmates when his power went out of control, then fights the Akashi as Sacred Arma Liberator. Kamakura City, the Yuigahama Chuo Shotengai shopping street, and Enoshima Electric Railway are credited for cooperation; episodes 1 to 6 stream.
The resumed runs pick up at set points: Chou Mashin Eiyuden Wataru at episodes 14 to 26, Saikyo Robo Daioja at 14 to 26, Brave Police J-Decker at 19 to 30, and Space Runaway Ideon at 27 to 39.
The press release also carries episode descriptions. Brave Police J-Decker is the fifth entry in the "Brave" series, with boy inspector Yuta commanding seven robot detectives. The third Chou Mashin Eiyuden Wataru TV series was revived after six years "due to persistent support."
