It has been revealed that the mysterious man Kuon, played by former YouTuber and actor Karma, will appear in the 8th episode of the Super Sentai series "No.1 Sentai Gozyuger" (TV Asahi, 9:30 AM), "The Ring Hunter, Where Right and Wick Fluctuate." It was also announced that Kuon is the older brother of "Red" Goju Wolf/ Hoeru Tono(Mio Fuyuno). Episode 8 will air on April 13th.
Karma's appearance had already been announced, but when the information ban was lifted in January, he was only introduced as "the young president of an AI company who holds the key to the story. Does he have a connection with Hou...?" In episode 8, Kuon, the president of the large Kuon AI Concern, reunites with Hou. This marks a major turning point for Gojuuger.
Karma commented, "It feels like it's finally here! The information ban was released at the same time as everyone else, but I never imagined that after appearing at such a huge production announcement event, I'd go into hiding for two or three months... (laughs)! I don't think this happens very often with other works, so I'm really sorry to have kept you waiting."
Regarding Kuon, he said, "He is Hou's older brother, and a character who cares very much for his younger brother. I think a lot of Hou's dark past is starting to be revealed, but when they got lost in "No One World", his brother got caught up in it too, and they got separated...it was actually me. A lot more will be revealed in episode 8, so I hope you'll look forward to it." He added, "Is he a good guy, a bad guy, or something...? I think he'll be a character that will stir up a lot of things, so please look forward to it!"
In episode 8, Tegajun, the queen of the mysterious evil organization, Bridan, also begins to move. Yukana, who is known for her role as Cure White in the anime "Futari wa Pretty Cure", will be the voice actress.
Ring Hunter Garude, the hunter of the ring that is said to be the queen's trump card, will also appear. He is a new warrior sent by Braidan, and fights using the Sentail Ring he hunted. Who will engage (transform) is still shrouded in mystery.
In "No.1 Sentai Gozyuger," five heroes based on beasts such as animals and dinosaurs battle each other, as well as the number one monster who has reached the top in any field, rivals with the power of all the previous Reds, and other Gojugers, in a battle to win the Centair Ring, a ring that is said to grant any wish.
