I don't exactly see the problem when it's impossible to look at most crossovers and anniversary things in Toku and take the idea of 'continuity' or 'canon' in them seriously. Toku has always been extremely light on this stuff; aside from movies like War Core and Super Hero Taisen which very clearly take place in some alternate universe, the setting of so many series creates contradictions in and of themselves -- Drive X Gaim is kind of hilarious when it hints at Mach, a character who is America... when Gaim's last stretch had America nuked to hell. Most of these crossovers retcon themselves, I don't really care if a series somewhere down the road says "this took place in a different universe" or "this was because the timelines were collapsing" or whatever, they never made sense in the first place; and Toku never makes sense when it comes to things like this.

Like, hell, the very base concept of any two series in Sentai or Rider or whatever taking place in the same universe, and taking that to its logical conclusion and saying every Sentai takes place in the same universe? How does any of that work in the first place? Continuity is the last thing you should be wanting to be upheld in these franchises, it was never there to begin with and even Ultraman who dabbled in it much more explicitly states every Earth to be different to make it work even halfway.
