Power Rangers Super Ninja Steel: Meet Sheriff Skyfire!

Power Rangers Super Ninja Steel is now airing on France with them airing episodes weeks before it makes it premiere in the United States. That being said, the series introduced a character that is familiar to fans of Shuriken Sentai Ninninger and the Metal Hero Series. 

In the show's 14th episode titled "Sheriff Skyfire", the Ninja Steel Rangers will meet Sheriff Skyfire, a space sheriff who was convinced by Madame Odius to arrest the Power Rangers because they are the "bad guys." Without spoiling a lot of details, he leaves the episode without revealing his true identity and that he has to "answer to his superiors." Said superiors were not revealed in the episode. 

For fans of Shuriken Sentai Ninninger and Metal Hero, Sheriff Skyfire is Jiraiya from Sekai Ninja Sen Jiraiya, the 7th entry of the Metal Hero Series. The character appeared in Ninninger's 34th episode titled "The Legendary World Ninja Jiraiya Appears!" and had a very minor recurring role in the series since then. More on the episode itself, Skyfire is voiced by Mark Mitchinson, who previously voiced Power Rangers RPM's General Shifter, Power Rangers Megaforce's Creepox, and Power Rangers Dino Charge's Singe. 

This episode is expected to premiere in the United States on September 22nd on Nickelodeon.
