Though 2006's Boukenger (which was adapted into Operation Overdrive) was the first Super Sentai series to be shot in widescreen, preceding Power Rangers seasons were not.

[3][7] The run-up to the new series was promoted by 145 Days of Power Rangers, a daily airing of every Mighty Morphin episode in order.

After defeating the company of Moogers, Jayden is informed by his mentor, Ji, that he must assemble his team of Samurai Rangers instead of fighting on his own.

Upon learning that the Samurai Rangers still exist, he becomes enraged and sends the Nighlok Tooya to attack the humans with an army of Moogers.

Ji summons four other warriors: Olympic swimmer Kevin, kindergarten teacher Mia, carefree gamer Mike, and pure-hearted country-girl Emily.

Sure enough, the Nighlok is reborn as his secondary form, a titanic mega-monster, so the Samurai Rangers enlarge their Foldingzords to confront and destroy him.

But when Scorpionic revives into a Mega Monster, the Rangers combine their Foldingzords to form the Samurai Megazord to destroy him and his giant Mooger army.

The Nighlok Negatron appears and subjects his victims to insults that hurt their feelings so deeply that the verbal abuse becomes a physical assault.

When her teammates wonder about her immunity to Negatron's attacks, Emily tells them how her sister Serena taught her to ignore insults and how you need to keep thinking that the person never even said it.

When Negatron resumes his attack, Emily weakens him with Mike's help as Jayden destroys him with the five-disc Beetle Cannon.

Antonio explains that after moving away when he was a kid, he trained himself to be a samurai and built his Samurai-Morpher from a trashed cellphone to communicate with Octozord through text Zords understand the Rangers.

The monster of the day steals kids' toys to create sorrow with Octoroo, trying to find another way to open the Sanzu River through a well.

In another dimension of Earth, the RPM Red Ranger Scott uses the Skyrev Megazord to fight Venjix's general Professor Cog in the deserts outside of Corinth.

Sharkjaw retreats after drying up, and Octoroo tells him he is no longer needed as General Gut and his army of Moogers are waiting to attack in the human world.

Professor Cog wants to use some of the Sanzu River to poison the humans in his dimension in return for the destruction of the Samurai Rangers.

Scott gets there early by taking Mentor Ji’s bike and helps out Antonio while the Rangers and Professor Cog enter the fray.

At the Shiba House, Jayden and RPM Red Ranger meet up with Mentor Ji, who pinpoints Cog, Sergeant Tread, and General Gut.

The Red Rangers work together to fight the villains, powering up to Shark Attack (Scott) and Super Modes (Jayden).

The Rangers are surprised to see Antonio and Mentor Ji working collaboratively to store the Shark Disk (capable of defeating General Gut) with the Light Zord.

Meanwhile, at the Sanzu River, Octoroo announces the return of the powerful Nighlok Eyescar to Master Xandred who has a plan to trap the Rangers.

Bulk and Spike attempt to block one of the energy beams in the ground with a giant ball of chewing gum in a subplot.

With the other Rangers down, Jayden uses the Black Box to finish the fight, barely surviving as he destroys Fiera with the Super Bullzooka.

Jayden remains injured on the ground as he sees a blurry vision of a girl walking towards him who reveals a Shiba Morpher.

Returning to the Shiba House, Mentor Ji tells the story of the Great Battle, how the previous Rangers fought against Master Xandred, and how Jayden's father put his faith in his two children.

Lauren takes care of Jayden’s injuries, but he plans to leave the team, as he believes the Sealing Power is their only hope to defeat Master Xandred and that there can only be one Red Ranger.

Back in the forest, Mentor Ji watches as Red Ranger faces off against Deker, and in an attempt to protect Jayden, they both fall down a cliff and land near a stream.

At the stream, Mentor Ji reminds Jayden of his childhood and his dedication to the Samurai life and tries to convince him not to fight Deker but to no avail.

As Mike, Mia, and Emily find Jayden in a ring of fire, Deker stands up again, still alive, wanting to continue the fight.

With Master Xandred back on Earth, the Rangers finally attempt to use the Sealing Symbol to stop him, only to discover that he has a special new defense against it!

The complete season of Super Samurai was released on Blu-ray on December 4, 2012[19] and DVD on January 7, 2014[20] by Lionsgate Home Entertainment.
