Sacred Guardian Singa is a Tokusatsu superhero character rooted in the real culture, history and heritage of Singapore and Southeast Asia, created by tokuAsia Pte. Ltd.

First conceptualised in 2006 as a community project by a group of Tokusatsu fans who envisioned their own local superhero, the idea has since transformed into a universe of colourful characters on screen and on print, now collectively known as the Sacred Guardians Universe, with Singa as its flagship character.

The driving force behind the Sacred Guardians is the desire of the creators to share their love for superheroes, as well as inspire an appreciation for one’s home, culture and identity to youth all around the world, via community-centric superhero.
