Kyuukyuu Sentai GoGoFive (救急戦隊ゴーゴーファイブ, Kyūkyū Sentai Gōgō Faibu; Rescue Squadron GoGoFive) is a Japanese Tokusatsu television series and the twenty-third entry of the long-running Japanese Super Sentai metaseries. Its footage was used in the American television series Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue. It aired from February 21, 1999, to February 6, 2000, replacing Seijuu Sentai Gingaman, and was replaced by Mirai Sentai Timeranger.

It was announced by Shout! Factory on January 9, 2018, that GoGoFive was to be released with English subtitles on DVD in North America. It was released on April 24, 2018. This is the 8th Super Sentai Series to be released on Region 1 DVD in North America. In August 2018, Shout! streamed the series on their website.

Grandiene has been waiting for the moment she can manifest on Earth on the day when the planets are in the alignment of the Grand Cross, sending her children to make the preparations while making Earth into a realm of darkness for her. But Professor Mondo Tatsumi of the Tatsumi Disaster Prevention Research Center, while failing to convince his peers of this event despite his eminence, left his family to secretly develop the Rescue System to counter the threat by the Psyma Family. When the Psyma commence their attack in 1999, months before the Grand Cross is to occur, the Tatsumi siblings find themselves recruited by their estranged father to fight the demons as the GoGoFive team.

The Tatsumi Family (巽家, Tatsumi-ke), which consist of five siblings (four brothers and one sister), are from a long line of "machi-bikeshi" (firefighters of Edo, the capital of the Tokugawa Shogunate), and are portrayed as providing emergency and rescue services in Tokyo.

The allies of the series include

The Psyma Family (災魔一族, Saima Ichizoku; Calamity Demon Family) is a family of demons whose only objective is destruction and intends to use the Grand Cross planet alignment to bring great calamity to Earth. The Family's matriarch, the Grand Witch Grandiene, hoped to travel to the real world by using the great amounts of "negative energy" that would emerge on Earth when the Grand Cross had formed. Her children, the Psyma Four Siblings, awaited her arrival, sending Psyma Beasts to destroy and finish off human civilization. They have their headquarters, the Demon Palace Psyma Paradico (魔宮サイマパラディコ, Makyū Saima Paradiko), at the North Pole.

The Psyma Beasts (サイマ獣, Saimajū) are the demons that the Psyma family use to attack the humans. They start out as cards detailing information about them and Pierre throws the card into the World of Darkness where he says an incantation to bring the Psyma Beast to life. When a Psyma Beast is destroyed, Pierre throws a Regeneration Card on them which makes them grow. The Golem Cards can be used to turn a defeated Psyma Beast into a Golem Psyma Beast. Each of the Psyma Family members have their own Psyma Beasts.
