I think some of these may need cutting unless they get pages, as them being bluelinked on the franchise page may mislead people into think the pages for them actually exist. But honestly, the current franchise page isn't as bad as you're making it out to be, it does its job with an index and overview of works which is relatively chronological, even if it could use an image.

^ One of the works is mistitled, some of the groupings make no sense, S.A.C. is the only one that has an actual synopsis, and there's no real separation between the different series.

For the multimedia page, I recommend just making links to the single-medium franchises. Leave the detail of what works exist in the franchise to the single-medium franchise pages. The addition of redirects to the single-medium franchise or main continuity page for that work is perfectly fine. Remember that all work articles should include a minimum of three tropes, including multimedia franchise work pages.

^ So the redirects are fine, but the Franchise page should only list the main bodies of work, not the tie-ins / sequels. Am I understanding that right?

And the minimum tropes, of course.

Right; tie-ins and sequels should be on their respective medium pages.
