Keiji Kuroki of Japanese pop group Exile will play Director Loveji and actress Sayaka Isoyama (Gransazer, Tensou Sentai Goseiger: Epic on the Movie) will play the mother of Lovepat Pink.
The trio will transform via a device called the Lovepat Shuffle and protect love using the Lovepat Wing, both of which utilize collectible cards similar to the Kamen Rider Ganbarzing card game. The DX Lovepat Shuffle will go on sale in July and retail for 5980 yen. Additionally, it was announced that the main cast of Secret x Heroine Phantomirage will also appear in the show. Director Takashi Miike will helm the series as well as oversee the music of the show.
