Power Rangers is an American media franchise, built around a superhero television series. The first Power Rangers entry, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, produced by Saban Entertainment, debuted on August 28, 1993. It became a hit in ratings and toy sales, establishing the franchise into pop culture.
The Power Rangers television series adapts characters and footage from the Japanese tokusatsu franchise Super Sentai for Western audiences, while also incorporating its own stories and characters. The original series ran for 30 seasons, which aired from 1993 to 2023, and it has expanded into other media, including theatrical films, comic books, novels and video games. A franchise reboot is currently in the works.
Despite initial criticism that its action violence targeted child audiences, the franchise has been commercially successful. By 2001, the media franchise had generated over $6 billion in toy sales.
In 2018, Bandai parted ways with Power Rangers, and the franchise was subsequently acquired by American toy company Hasbro. Toei Company handles the brand in certain Asian markets, including Japan.
