Ren'ai Sentai Shitsu Ranger

Ren'ai Sentai Shitsu Ranger (恋愛戦隊シツレンジャー; Love Squadron Lost Love Ranger) is Nochiura Natsumi's only single. It was released on October 6, 2004, and the Single V was released on October, 27, 2004.

The song style and title is a tribute to "sentai" (Power Rangers et al). The title is a play on words, combining the words "Lost love" (失恋 = shitsuREN) and "Ranger" (レンジャー (RENja)), making it a war force group related love.
