It premiered the week following the finale of Samurai Sentai Shinkenger[1] on February 14, 2010, it airs alongside Kamen Rider Double in the Super Hero Time programming block. The series ties in with the arcade game Super Sentai Battle: Dice-O, with the characters using cards resembling Cardass cards used in the game to transform and access various weapons, similar to the concept of Kamen Rider Decade its link to Kamen Rider Battle: Ganbaride.

The cast and characters were revealed at an event at Tokyo Dome City on January 30 and 31, 2010.[1][2] The protagonists also had a cameo appearance in the film Samurai Sentai Shinkenger vs. Go-onger: GinmakuBang!!.[3]

Story

The five Goseigers are actually members of a branch of human life called the "Gosei Angels" (護星天使, Gosei Tenshi), whose mission is to protect the Earth.[1] But Earth is targeted by an evil invasion force called Warstar which destroyed the Heaven's Tower (天の塔, Ten no Tō), a passageway between Earth and the Gosei World. While finding a way to return to their dimension, the Goseigers defend Earth from Warstar and stop its forces from stealing the planets's life energy.[4][5][6]

The phrase "Descent!" (降臨!, Kōrin!) is utilized in the promotional materials for the series.

The Goseigers

The Goseigers are members of the Gosei Angels (護星天使, Gosei Tenshi), humans born with mysterious powers who 10,000 years ago moved to the Gosei World (護星界, Goseikai) so not to cause trouble for regular humans. Using the Heaven's Tower as a bridge between the dimensions, the Gosei Angels made it their mission to protect Earth. However, when the Heaven's Tower is destroyed, only five Gosei Angels are left on the Earth to complete this mission.[4][5][6]
