Ninpu Sentai Hurricaneger (忍風戦隊ハリケンジャー, Ninpū Sentai Harikenjā, Wind Ninja Squadron Hurricaneger)[1][a] is a Japanese Tokusatsu television show and Toei's twenty-sixth production of the Super Sentai metaseries. It aired from February 17, 2002, to February 9, 2003, replacing Hyakujuu Sentai Gaoranger, and was replaced by Bakuryū Sentai Abaranger. The catchphrase for the series is "Unknown even to others, unknown even to the world, we become shadows to defeat evil!" (人も知らず 世も知らず 影となりて悪を討つ!, Hito mo shirazu, yo mo shirazu, kage to narite aku o utsu!). Its footage was used in the American series Power Rangers Ninja Storm (the end credits listed the show as titled Hurricane Rangers). On April 1, 2013, Shun Shioya, Nao Nagasawa, Kohei Yamamoto, Yujiro Shirakawa, and Nobuo Kyo, who played Hurricane Red, Hurricane Blue, Hurricane Yellow, Kabuto Raijer, and Kuwaga Raijer, respectively, announced that a tenth-anniversary V-Cinema release called Ninpu Sentai Hurricaneger: 10 Years After would be produced. This is the first time a movie has been made commemorating the anniversary of a single Sentai series.[2] The movie is a direct to DVD and Blu-ray release. Shout! Factory released Ninpu Sentai Hurricaneger: The Complete Series in North America on March 26, 2019.[3] This is the twelfth Super Sentai series to be released in North America. It aired alongside Kamen Rider Ryuki.

Hurricaneger is the first Super Sentai series to officially celebrate its own 20th anniversary, with a V-cinext release for this occasion which debuted in 2022.
