The Brave series (Japanese: 勇者シリーズ, Hepburn: Yūsha Shirīzu) is a Japanese toy and mecha anime franchise originally created and produced by Sunrise and funded by Takara. The franchise was a spiritual successor to Takara's Transformers series in Japan and ran from the 1990s to 2000s, producing eight official series and several side media including Original Video Animations (OVAs), toys, and several memorabilia in Japan. It was one of Sunrise's most notable productions in the 90s, and its run played a key role in the reintroduction of the Super Robot genre to the Japanese mainstream.
As of 2022, the rights to the series were now owned by Bandai Namco Filmworks, following the 1994 acquisition of Sunrise, who produced and animated the series.
