Separate entry for each season/show

Kamen Rider is not one continuous show but a franchise. Each "season" in this entry should be a different show, in the same way that the other long running tokusatsu franchises of Super Sentai, Metal Heroes or Ultraman have been documented as different series in TMDB. Moreover, Kamen Rider also had several revivals with hiatuses in the 80s and 90s, which would qualify them for new entries.
I'm not quite sure how to make that happen in technical terms though. I'm new to this database so the only method I know involves a lot (too much) of copy-pasting.

There is value in having them all linked together for narrative purposes. For example, Ultraman Decker continues the story of Ultraman Trigger's GUTS-Select team. Super Sentai was originally linked together up until last year as was Ultraman. There is a feature to mitigate the split, "Universe", but work has not yet been started: https://trello.com/c/cRiMnOvH/79-create-universes-franchises
I'm of the opinion that the split really shouldn't happen for Kamen Rider until this feature is rolled out for similar narrative reasons given seasons like Zi-o that involve characters from prior seasons
