Production

The original "Fiveman" suit designs, alongside eventual user X1 Mask

Maskman was a season that turned out to bring many changes to the franchise, even from development. The season was originally to have the name of The Fiveman, similar in name to the original Sentai Himitsu Sentai Gorenger and with the five reflective in many aspects including Great Five, the first five-piece mecha. However the costumes for the season blended in aspects from the recent Hirohisa Soda seasons (uniform leotards with color differences in areas for males and females) with the return of masks similar to those of Battle Fever J, including eyes, noses, and sculpted hair. A prototype mask was made, but the concept was ultimately dropped; this prototype would ultimately be used in one episode as the hero X1 Mask, who would have the distinction of being a prototype of a future Sentai development: the sixth hero. One notable attribute to the costumes used was the return of the female skirt, which had been absent since DenziPink and would be utilized by nearly every female Sentai hero afterwards. The Fiveman name, although not used, would eventually be adopted by another Sentai three years later.

Another major development brought about by Maskman was stepping away from science fiction, which had been a major driving factor of all Sentai since Denziman and instead utilizing aspects of the Chinese concept of "kikou", an internal energy within the body that can be used and manipulated. Known as "aura power" in Maskman, it would lead to the first martial arts-driven Sentai and begin experimentations beyond Sentai's comfort zone into eventually embracing other concepts and ideas. The "kikou" concept would be further developed and used six years later in the Chinese-themed Dairanger.

Plot

"There is an unknown power hidden inside the human body. If you train as hard as you can, the power revealed will be unlimited!"

―Narrator^[src]

Everything starts with Commander Sugata, a scientist and sage who excelled in mental reinforcements and is a master of every martial art. He discovered the existence of the Royal Underground Empire Tube, a malignant force that desires to dominate the land, which is based underneath Japan. In the beginning, Tube was centered on pacifism. However, when Zeba assumed the throne, Tube began planning to conquer the world. The new goal of Tube had become turning the world into a cold and shady planet, conditions that would need to be achieved so that the citizens of Tube could live on the surface. In order to stand against them and thwart their plans, Sugata recruited five young people, each one specializing in a style of martial arts, and taught them in the ways of the mystical "Aura Power" energy.

A year after Sugate recruited and trained the Maskmen, Tube is ready to strike. The Tube's Princess Ial, sent as a spy above ground under the assumed name Mio, has fallen in love with Takeru and now wishes for those living under and above ground to coexist. She is kidnapped and imprisoned in ice for her betrayal.

Notes

• Maskman features a prototype Sixth Ranger, X-1 Mask, a one-shot character that appears only in episode 39. This would lead to the first sixth hero debuting in Zyuranger.
• Maskman is the first Sentai season where none of the core team members have known surnames (excluding Ryo Asuka/X1 Mask, who was a predecessor to the main Maskman team).
• Maskman is the last Sentai season to have a full run in the Showa period. Its successor, Liveman, would air 43 of the 49 total episodes in the remainder of the Showa period, while episode 44 and onward would air during the very start of the Heisei period.
• This is the first series to feature an individual mecha for each core member, a motif that will be featured in every one of the show's successors with the exception of Fiveman and Megaranger.
• In the Filipino dub, the opening and closing themes were composed by singer and composer of the late Norman Caraan who is the main vocalist and frontman of the band, Bodjie's Law of Gravity. Caraan later composed both opening and closing themes in the Filipino dub of Uchuu Keiji Shaider until 1994. Prior on composing both opening and closing themes as mentioned above, Caraan initially composed the opening song of Choudenshi Bioman but was unused during the Philippine-English dub.
• Their official counterparts in Super Megaforce are given the name Lightning.
