Shuriken Sentai Ninninger is the 39th Sentai series. It starts February 22, 2015.
Shuriken are the throwing stars used by ninjas. Ninninger is a portmanteau of "ninja" and "ranger".
Plot
During the Sengoku Era, a wicked and powerful general, Kibaoni Gengetsu, attempted to drown Japan in fear. He was eventually defeated and sealed away by the ancestors of the Igasakis. However, Kibaoni left a worrysome prophecy that he would revive in 444 years, and rule the world in terror once again. The prophecy seemed to turn out to be true, with Kibaoni reviving as an oni, but he was defeated and sealed again once more by the current Igasaki family's grandfather, Igasaki Yoshitaka, earning Yoshitaka the name of "Last Ninja".
However, it turned out that the year 444 years after was wrongly calculated, and 444 years after was actually the current year. When the Igasakis visited Kibaoni's tomb, he was revived by an odd ritual by a strange masked shaman, rising up in gigantic form as an oni, in the midst of a dark blue tornado. Now it is up to the current generation of the Igasakis to stop Kibaoni once again and for all.

Trivia
- 2015 is the 40th anniversary of Super Sentai (GoRanger first aired April 5, 1975). It's not the 40th series though, because GoRanger lasted for two years.
- This might be why the Ninninger's naming conventions are similar to GoRanger's (Akaninger and AkaRanger, etc.)
- Kibaoni's name means "fanged oni". The monsters of the week are Youkai, which are monsters from Japanese folklore.[1]
Actor Trivia
- Yamaya Kasumi was Komaki Rumi of Movie Taisen Ultimatum (Fourze part)and Hilda Gordon/Horror Girl in Uchuu Keiji Sharivan: NEXT GENERATION and Uchuu Keiji Sahider: NEXT GENERATION.
- The first Sentai since Gokaiger to not have Oshikawa Yoshifumi do the stunts for the year's Red. And the first Sentai since GekiRanger to not have him doing the stunts for a main ranger.
- Matsuda Kenji voices Raizou. He's best known for his role as Zanki on Hibiki, Jirou on Kiva and Shijima Wataru on Garo ~Makai Senki~.
Ninja Stuff
- The last ninja-themed Sentai was 12 years ago with Hurricanger in 2003. And 21 years since Kakuranger in 1994.
- The phrase "nin nin" is popularized by the anime character "Ninja Hattori-kun".
- By itself, one "nin" is a homonym for the Japanese word for "to acknowledge".
- Ninninger was originally supposed to start February 15th, but because Toqger was preempted a couple of weeks earlier for a news special, Ninnin was pushed back a week.
- 22nd works a bit better since it can be pronounced Ni-ni which sounds like Ninnin. Some people call this "National Ninja Day". http://kotaku.com/ninja-day-is-an-actual-holiday-in-japan-1686488299
- Their catchphrase "We are shinobi, but we will not hide!" is a reference to "shinobi" being based on the Japanese word for "concealment, to hide" as well as being an alternate way of saying "ninja".
- The Igasaki Clan is obviously a reference to the Iga ninja clan. Famous real life ninja.
