** ''Series/ShurikenSentaiNinninger'' established a chain of mostly ninja heroes. The five Ninningers, composed of a sibling duo and their three cousins, were trained for a brief period by Sasuke (Ninja Red) and Yousuke Shiina (Hurricane Red), who had been summoned by the Ninningers' father/uncle Tsumuji but were also motivated by an incident ten years prior, where they met Aka Ninger after coming together to fight a time-travelling monster. Later, a band of dark ninja emerge, resulting in veteran [[Series/SekaiNinjaSenJiraiya Toha Yamaji (Sekai Ninja Jiraiya) re-emerging to challenge the Ninningers, a result of mistaken identity. After realising his mistake and helping the Ninningers fight the MonsterOfTheWeek, Jiraiya is convinced to step down from active service, giving into scouts of the newly formed Committee to Protect Ninja Honor and becoming their President. The Ninningers are later assessed by Shurikenger (''Hurricaneger's'' SixthRanger), who reveals that Jiraiya sent him in his capacity as President, while Sasuke and Yousuke disclosed their reports of the team.

* ''Franchise/KamenRider'': Over the years, numerous meetings of Kamen Riders have formed a network which inevitably leads to Kamen Riders gathering en masse for {{Crisis Crossover}}s.
** In [[Series/KamenRider the original series]], Tobei Tachibana was TheMentor to Takeshi Hongo even before he became the first Kamen Rider. Through this, he also oversaw future Riders Hayato Ichimonji (Rider #2), Shiro Kazami (Series/KamenRiderV3) and Joji Yuki (Riderman). However, after that he seperately mentors Keisuke Jin (Series/KamenRiderX), Daisuke Yamamoto (Series/KamenRiderAmazon) then finally Shigeru Jo (Series/KamenRiderStronger) after bumping into them as if by chance.
** In ''Series/KamenRiderSkyrider'', Genjiro Tani was introduced as a SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute for Tobei Tachibana, serving as such to Skyrider (Kamen Rider #8) and been oddly familiar with the previous Riders as if they were interacting with Tachibana himself. In the next series, Kazuya Oki, some time after being transformed into Series/KamenRiderSuper1 (Kamen Rider #9), is reunited with Tani who, as it turns out, knew Kazuya as a child. In relation to the ''Super-1'' TV show, Tani's association with the previous Riders is mostly superfluous beyond serving as qualifications to support the new Rider and to function as a familiar face for the audience, especially since the first eight Riders made only a token appearance to assist Super-1 in [[Film/KamenRiderSuper1 his movie]].
** In ''Series/KamenRiderKiva'', protagonist Wataru Kurenai gets latched onto by CoolBigSis Megumi Aso, but neither of them ever realizes that their parents (Otoya Kurenai and Yuri Aso) were a couple briefly. On top of that, Wataru eventually learns that his childhood friend Taiga Nobori is actually his half-brother[[note]]Their mother Maya was the Fangire Queen; Taiga's father was the King, while Wataru was the product of a fling with Otoya[[/note]]. And that's not even getting into the tangled web weaved by the [[SixthRanger IXA]] armor...
** In ''Series/KamenRiderDecade'', protagonist Tsukasa Kadoya acts as the link between the Kamen Riders of the {{Alternate Universe}}s through which he travels, having been sent on a quest to save the multiverse by what appears to be the prime Wataru Kurenai. Going from world to world, he typically ends up assisting that world's Rider overcome their ArchEnemy, and even enters the world of ''Series/SamuraiSentaiShinkenger''. Later, [[LegionOfDoom Dai-Shocker]] emerges to recruit the villains of multiple worlds in its bid to conquer the multiverse. Ultimately, the Nine Worlds merge into the World of the Rider War, where it is revealed that Decade is destined to destroy all Riders. This he does before allowing himself to be slain by his friend Natsumi, but then it turns out this saved the multiverse as the slain Riders are restored, with Tsukasa himself finally being revived by the memories of his friends.
** In ''Series/KamenRiderZiO'', protagonist Sougo Tokiwa is destined to become the TimeMaster Oma Zi-O. Manipulated by several parties including Decade, Sougo gains the means to TimeTravel and inadvertently merges the past Riders' seperate realities into one, apparently being responsible for the ''Kamen Rider'' SharedUniverse. Furthermore, he is responsible for the emergence of [[OriginalGeneration future Kamen Riders]].
* In ''Franchise/SuperSentai'', numerous team-ups between Ranger teams of various origins culminates in [[Series/KaizokuSentaiGokaiger the first 34 Super Sentai quickly assembling to face [the invasion of Earth by the Space Empire Zangyack]].
** ''Timeranger vs. [=GoGoFive=]'' is an early example of a nod to a previous crossover when Matoi Tatsumi (Go Red) misnames the Timeranger as "Timeman", alluding to ''[=GoGoFive=] vs. Gingaman''.

** Though the expected team-up between ''Series/UchuSentaiKyuranger'' and ''Series/DoubutsuSentaiZyuohger'' never materialized, several crossovers featured members of the two teams interacting.
*** Alongside other Sentai and Kamen Riders, the six Zyuohgers did fight in battle against Shocker with the nine Kyurangers, however, the only real out-of-suit meeting was between Amu (Zyuoh Tiger) and Balance (Tenbin Gold) & Naga Ray (Hebitsukai Silver).
*** In ''Film/LupinrangerVSPatrangerVSKyuranger'', SixthRanger Misao Mondou (Zyuoh The World) spontaneously shows up to join the three teams' fight briefly before leaving as soon as he came.
** ''[[Series/FourWeekContinuousSuperSentaiStrongestBattle Super Sentai Strongest Battle]]'' has many heroes summoned and subsequently sorted into unlikely combined teams to participate in a tournament which is actually part of a plot to resurrect a long-dead villain. Our protagonists, the Oddball Team, is made up of Yamato Kazakiri (Zyuoh Eagle), Captain Marvelous (Gokai Red), Takaharu Igasaki ([=AkaNinger=]), Stinger (Sasori Orange) and Kagura Izumi ([=ToQ=] #5). Only Marvelous' meeting with Yamato in ''Zyuohger'' is acknowledged, though Yamato also met Takaharu before in ''Zyuohger vs. Ninninger'', and Takaharu in turn met Kagura in ''Ninninger vs. [=ToQger=]''. The Oddball Team also marks another meeting of ''Kyuranger'' and ''Zyuohger'' in Stinger and Yamato. A further nod is given when Stinger meets into Doggie Kruger ([=DekaMaster=]); Doggie and his colleagues had met a portion the Kyurangers which did not include Stinger in ''Kyuranger'' #17, he nevertheless recognises Stinger as one through his [[TransformationTrinket Seiza Blaster]], while Stinger reveals that his teammates apprised him of the encounter.
