The first press conference for Toei’s first P.R.O.J.E.C.T RED series, Super Space Sheriff Gavan Infinity revealed the new cast involved, along with a trailer and the tv series’s Opening Theme Artist.
From what we have learned previously, this series will focus on a Multiverse and each Gavan’s duty to protect their world. Our heroes are investigating crimes related to “Emolgia”, an energy-based life-form that reacts strongly to human emotions that grants both Gavan Infinity and his enemies great power. Before we check out the cast involved in the new series, it has been confirmed that the TV Series opening theme, LOVE IS THE STRONGEST, will be performed by May’n (Accel World, Macross F, The Ancient Magus’ Bride).

Super Space Sheriff Gavan Infinity will be directed by Hirofumi Fukuzawa, a suit actor who was known for his many roles as Red Warriors (Sentai Red) in the Super Sentai Series, but is known for his suit role in 2001’s Hyakujuu Sentai Gaoranger.

The series will premiere on Sunday, February 15th, 2026 on TV Asahi, and 24 TV Asahi affiliates at 9:30 am JST. Western Fans are hoping Toei will include Super Space Sheriff Gavan Infinity to be streamed in the West, like how Kamen Rider Zeztz is streaming in part of SHOUT! Factory’s TokuSHOUTsu lineup.

This marks a milestone in Japanese Hero Entertainment, the first major transformation in fifty years of the Super Sentai broadcast slot (which has been confirmed to be going on Hiatus), and what better way to change the entertainment landscape with the return of the Space Sheriff series, starting with the newly announced Super Space Sheriff Gavan Infinity! A reimagining of the classic Space Sheriff Gavan series from 1982, by rebuilding its world from the ground up. When the original Gavan series first debuted in Japan, and abroad, it captivated audiences with its metallic suit and space-themed action, leaving a historic mark on 1980s special effects entertainment. The 2026 version takes that innovative spirit and pushes it forward with the latest visual technologies. In an era where AI and space exploration are part of everyday reality, the series aims to portray a new vision of the science-fiction hero. The original Space Sheriff Gavan series is available to stream now on TUBI, and available to own on Blu-ray.
