Any attempt to make the existing Sentai series into one flawless continuty is doomed without major retcons, and the only members of the audience who would appreciate it are a tiny fraction of a percent who are not even in the target audience. There is no possible gain for the writers to do so that would be worth the time and effort it would take.

Marvel films are actually aimed at families. Although I do find it amusing that sentai is a "kids show" when it suits, but then some kind of "mature, intelligent, masterpiece" whenever Power Rangers is brought up in the same sentence.

But that doesn't change that a show like Gokaiger is the perfect way to wrap up, and perhaps make sense, of a franchise with no regard for continuity. It didn't need to make it under the banner of some master plan, but even as someone who isn't that into sentai, I'm shocked by the general lack of resolution or any real attempt at cohesion when doing the tribute episodes.
