Magical Girl Zeta (2018 live action series)

Magical Girl Zeta is an Japanese-American tokusatsu sentai magical girl comedy-drama television series based on the franchise of the same name. The live action series is a loosely based adaptation of the 2004-2010 anime series. The series will start airing on September 30, 2018 on NTV and on other NNS stations in Japan.

Development
In mid April of 2018, it was announced that American production house Firebasket Studios was interested in making a few television series based off Venga properties. One of them included Magical Girl Zeta. Venga Shanghai will provide special effects for the series, while Venga Pictures will produce the show with Firebasket Studios.

English language version
In August of 2018, it was announced that Venga Seattle will produce a English language version, that will use footage from the show while creating a narrative using American actors. However, some Japanese actors will still be used in the English language version, with their voices being overdubbed in English.

This version is set to air later in the fall of 2018 or early 2019.

Firebasket Network will broadcast the English language version starting March 2, 2019.
