Sentai on the other hand literally 10 years ago, established that all 35 Sentais at that point shared the same world. 4 Years Later they just randomly had cameos in Ninninger to establish that it's still the same world, and another year later Gokaiger again established that all 40 Sentais share the same world. Sure the 41st Sentai is a confirmed seperate universe with seemingly easy access to the main universe. But even the shows after Kyuranger continued on one world, with TheWorld literally just showing up and fucking off for a 5 minute cameo as a joke about Zyuohger not getting a real team up. Basically, the idea is that each Sentai takes place on its own world, but there’s also a Versus World, where every Sentai exists. That’s where all the Versus movies take place, along with Gokaiger (and potentially Zyuohger). Beyond that, there are relatively few Sentai stories that feature or reference other teams in the bulk of the show itself — Denziman/Sun Vulcan, Kiramager/Gekiranger, Zyuohger/Gokaiger, Kyuranger/Gokaiger (though they are explicitly from different universes), and Ninninger/Kakuranger/Hurricanger/Magiranger are the only ones I know of. We can probably assume that Kyoryuger exists in a world with other Sentai teams, since the characters seem to be aware of the overall concept of Sentai, but it can’t share a world with any of the other Dino teams, Boukenger, or Go-Onger, as they all have completely different reasons for the extinction of dinosaurs. That said, this is just a fan theory, and multiple producers of both KR and Sentai have said over the years that continuity is not something they even consider when creating individual shows. At the same time, there have been comments from other producers that indicate all their shows exist in the same universe, apart from all the others. The point is that Sentai continuity is an extremely complicated subject, with so many contradictions and inconsistencies that arguing about it is a little silly.

Someone’s never heard of the “Versus World” theory...

Well, back in the 70s sentai worked with marvel to make spiderman as well as battle fever j, who at the time even in the 80s was retcon in the 10th super sentai anniversaries. like riders, in the 70s it was more about war terrorism and nazi. the 80s with gavan, sentai began to approach more space and science theme. it wasnt really about selling a lot of merchandises with some series only have one or two mecha + less than a handful of roleplaying gears. they did tried twice with a playschool ultra carrier zord thing out of filmsy materials with turboranger/fiveman base.
Back when ratings matter as well as ad commercial spon in between the show. Now, is gimmick after gimmick collect them all collectibles. I think the villain actor from liveman, jetman, and dairanger once said hurricanger gone kiddy, but now we're watching the cast role play demo the toy especially ryusoulken pulling. Kiramager is an exception with how simple things are. Maybe too simple even for the villains. Zenkaiger might be a risky test for toei to retool super sentai in genral while keeping the same name and using anniversary as an excuse to get more eyeballs to be graps by initial shock, so they'll tune in. They failed trying to reboot gavan and kikaider. Now, sentai isn't in the best state compared to cheaper made animate toys sales. Likewise, 2021 saber is like ryusoulger if they had their village base. Zenkaiser looks like classic riders with one man carrying the show. |
