ナンバーワン戦隊ゴジュウジャーVSブンブンジャー

The V-Cinema Number One Sentai Gozyuger vs. Boonboomger is in the interview phase of promotion. The film features a personality-shifted Saint GojuWolf, a matured Boonboomger team, and guest appearances by three past Red Rangers.

Synthesized from 30 Yomimono stories · updated Aug 14

The V-Cinema Number One Sentai Gozyuger vs. Boonboomger pairs the two recent Super Sentai teams, and the only published coverage so far is an April 14 interview with the two leads. Shino Fuyuno, who plays GojuWolf, Saint GojuWolf, and Tono Inu, and Haruhi Inai, who plays BoonRed and Hando Daiya, discussed how the film plays with the usual VS formula. Inai said the Boonboomger team has grown since their TV series, with members appearing with changed looks, including long-haired Shirou and short-bearded Bunto.

The film's twist is a transformed, saintly version of Fuyuno's character called Light Fuse (Hikari Inu). Fuyuno described it as a complete departure from his usual role, requiring him to suppress his own personality, and said he relied on Inai's character Daiya to guide his character's negativity. Inai praised the performance as exceeding his expectations. The film also brings in three past Red Rangers as guests: BoukenRed, Gokaiger's Captain Marvelous, and JuuOhEagle.

Inai, a Gokaiger fan, pointed to a surprise for longtime viewers: the enemy character is voiced by Tomokazu Seki, who voiced the Gokaiger transformation items and narration. Both actors also reflected on the Super Sentai series' upcoming pause and said they hope fans remember their work.

The Cave Diver Crawls Onto Steam With Physics Horror

Individual developer Ovsko released The Cave Diver on Steam on August 13, 2026. The horror adventure game costs 1,350 yen, with a 10 percent launch discount bringing it to 1,215 yen until August 23. The player controls a protagonist with paralyzed legs who crawls through narrow caves using only their arms, searching for a flower said to bloom at the bottom and heal all illnesses. The caves are labyrinthine, with branching tunnels that lead to dead ends where turning back is physically impossible. Players can place signs to mark their route and warn of dangers. Characters and objects move via physics simulation, and some puzzles require physics-based actions, such as swinging from a collapsed platform to cross a gap. If the player becomes stuck, the protagonist dies trapped in the rock, and on restart, the corpse of a predecessor may remain at that spot. The game supports Japanese and is available on PC via Steam.
