Zyuoh The World is a normal human who was brainwashed in to a villain before redeeming himself like Tommy.

Kyuranger is set in a dystopian future alternate dimension conquered by the villains like RPM and the main villain is a spirit that corrupts the host like Dai Shi.

Lupinranger and Patranger have powers from the same source like how Ninjor created the Power Coins for Mighty Morphin' and Alien.

Strongest Battle is set on Planet Nemesis and the villain is called Rita.

Kirama Silver arrived on Earth from Crystalia (although originally from Earth) like how Orion came from Andresia.

Sempaiger are a group of 10 Red Rangers who fought the remnants of a defeated villain faction like in Forever Red.

Kuwagata-Ohger and Ohkuwagata-Ohger are long-lost brothers with one of them having memory loss like the relationship between Brody and Levi.

Akibaranger had the Powerful Rangers.

To add to what DreamSword said, not only is Zenkai Juran based on Zyuranger, but also Super Zenkaizer. I know Zyuranger was popular for its time, but this seems way too deliberate to not be a Mighty Morphin' reference.

To be fair, a lot of those examples are just similarities in 2 long running franchises.
To say something like a brainwashed villain becomes a hero or an amnesiac reunites with their long lost sibling is a PR homage is a massive stretch.

That's not to say some aren't honest to goodness PR references (It's Morphin Time and the mech system being called Megazords in Go-Busters, Zyuran's entire existence, and the Powerful Rangers), but a lot of those are just circumstantial similarities.

Also, losing the Western market would be a massive fumble for Toei
