Some series start out with a particular type of ensemble, with a certain number of characters and a defined role for each. Then in the second season, a mysterious new character appears. After many misunderstandings, the new character is revealed to be a good guy and joins The Team. Any new character that joins an established cast and knocks it out of one of the traditional categories (and possibly into another) is a Sixth Ranger. There may be more than one per team, with either several joining in succession, or pre-established pairs coming in at once. In a Magical Girl show, it is not uncommon for the Sixth Ranger to be the lead character's boyfriend. In some of the more extreme cases, a former Big Bad, Dragon, or Wild Card villain can take on this role after they have been defeated or performed an independent Heel–Face Turn, and may or may not act as a secondary Lancer. In Magical Girl shows, this is usually the role the Dark Magical Girl plays. Their power and coolness is inversely proportional to the number of episodes since their début, since, in some cases, Good Is Dumb. Expect them to be single-handedly defeating enemies that the main team struggled against during their first appearance, falling in line as they become integrated into the group, then finally getting overtaken by the original heroes. In fact, they almost invariably tend to become a magnet for The Worf Effect so the writers can show off how powerful the new villain is. If the show doesn't look like it's going to change its status quo, expect the Sixth Ranger to actually be the Sixth Ranger Traitor, or at the very least a Guest-Star Party Member if they have to leave for whatever reason. Since most Sixth Rangers used to be loners, they may serve as the Token Evil Teammate. If a Sixth Ranger candidate does join the Ensemble, but the series is nearly over, the candidate is an 11th-Hour Ranger. When the team started as a Power Trio and gets two Sixth Rangers, they make Three Plus Two. Compare Hitchhiker Heroes and Magnetic Hero, where adding characters is the team's normal state. Sailor Earth is a Fan Work subtrope where the Sixth Ranger is an Original Character. Also see One Extra Member, especially when the team's name indicates the number of members and the Sixth Ranger doesn't force a change in the team's name. Honorary True Companion is when a would-be Sixth Ranger never officially joins the group. Compare with Token Houseguest where a character who isn't part of the immediate family lives with them and is treated as a major member of the cast. Named for the introduction of Dragon Ranger/Yamato Tribe Knight Burai in Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger as well as his American counterpart the Green Ranger/Tommy Oliver in the original Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers. However, the term became an Evolving Trope, since many teams don't have this character as the sixth member of the team. It should be added that this an English-specific issue, since the common Japanese term for this is "additional warrior" (tsuika senshi). A common method for Merchandise-Driven works to add new characters to the cast — and the toy line. |

Avataro Sentai Donbrothers is joined by a sixth member who has both a gold dragon-based form and a silver tiger-based form, which reflects his Split Personality. He, like the main team, can also transform into Sixth Rangers from previous seasons like Gokai Silver, but does not use this ability as often. Late in the season, three members of the Nouto Quirky Miniboss Squad join the Donbrothers and become honorary 11th-Hour Ranger since they had formed a friendship with the Donbrothers over the season and made enemies with the other Nouto. The evil violet ranger Don Murasame also joins the Donbrothers in the last episode after refusing to help the Nouto Executioners. | |

Kamen Rider Revice: Averted early on, as the show introduces all its main Riders in the first quarter and doesn't add new ones in the second. However, Kamen Rider Demons can be considered an honorary one, as while the rest of the Riders are a Sibling Team, Demons is instead an outside ally. In fact, it could be considered an inversion, as instead of adding a new Rider, the show removes one by writing Demons out (he's seemingly killed off, and even when he turns up alive later he's still too frail to return to active duty). Multiple Riders join the heroes late in the story, though none of them really rise to the level of the main Sibling Team. Most have little role in the plot and merely help fill in fight scenes: Aguilera and the second Over Demons are redeemed villains who had already completed their character arcs, while the first Over Demons had always been a bit character. Meanwhile, Kamen Rider Destream has an actual role in the plot, being the siblings' father; but he only appears a few times in which he only fights solo, never alongside his kids. |

The J-WITCH Series: Jade's friendship with the Guardians is strong enough that they consider her an official member of the team even without powers (hence the fic's name). It later becomes official after Will using the Heart of Kandrakar to cure Jade's Queen of the Shadowkhan corruption creates a sixth Auremere, turning Jade into the Guardian of Shadows. After the bad guys manage to get Elyon to Meridian, Alchemy ends up discovering the Guardians and Chans' magical adventures, so she starts helping them out in said adventures. Hay Lin lampshades it by commenting that J-WITCH has a new supporting member. |

Averted in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Remus Lupin tries to become this by offering the Trio to join them on their quest to defeat Voldemort, but Harry refuses the offer when he discovers Lupin is trying to escape the responsibilities of being a good husband and father, by leaving the pregnant Tonks to her fate. Since Harry lost his parents when they gave their live to save him, Harry really dislikes it when someone tries to abandon his or her responsibility as a parent. Tragically, not only does Lupin die in the final battle, but so does Tonks, leaving their son an orphan. Word of God rubs the salt further by stating that Lupin has lost most of his dueling reflexes because he doesn't get to fight much (which joining Harry would lead to plenty of), leading to his demise. Nice Job Breaking It, Hero. | |

Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie Comics): The comic has had a number of Sixth Rangers since its inception: Bunnie Rabbot (who wasn't part of the team here), Dulcy the Dragon, Tails and Amy Rose. The Continuity Reboot altered things so that Big the Cat and Cream and Cheese are now Freedom Fighters and the backstory revealed that Sonic and Tails were the first Sixth Rangers in the Freedom Fighters. | |

Agent Clint Barton/Hawkeye in The Avengers. He's absent for a good chunk of the film due to being mind-controlled by Loki, but joins up just in time to help the heroes kick ass in the climax. Appropriately, he's a dark and brooding type, with incredible Improbable Aiming Skills. | |

X-Men: Back when the X-Men were a Five-Man Band, Mimic was the first new student at Xavier's (also the first non-mutant X-Man). He's been a low-level criminal since leaving the team (a waste of potential after seeing his Exiles counterpart in action). When the original X-Men "graduate" to make room for the next team, the lineup remains fairly constant...Wolverine, Storm, Nightcrawler, Colossus, and Cyclops, with Banshee or Jean Grey "Phoenix" rounding out the squad on occasions...until after The Dark Phoenix Saga, when the team picks up Tagalong Kid Kitty "Sprite" Pryde. In an interesting inversion, she started off without much combat effectiveness, and took several levels in badass as her time with the team progressed. |

Sluggy Freelance: Aylee starts off as your standard Alien parody trying to eat our heroes, but after accidentally returning to their dimension, makes peace with them and becomes Torg's secretary, and eventually a full-fledged True Companion. Riff's girlfriend Sasha became one of these shortly after being introduced. She was a versatile character, able to get along with the Mad Scientist Riff just as well as the Only Sane Woman Zoë. However, she stuck around after Zoë moved away, but left at the same time Zoë returned. Sasha returned seven years later, to round out the main cast after a couple vacancies opened up. |

In Kamen Rider Wizard, Kamen Rider Beast shows up out of nowhere and declares himself Wizard's Rival, partly due to a misunderstanding about how Wizard's powers work that made him think they were competing for monster kills. Even so, he treats it as a Friendly Rivalry and they get along pretty well. | |

Most team members of Channel Awesome qualify, if you consider the main "team" to be The Nostalgia Critic, Linkara, The Nostalgia Chick, Suede and MarzGurl. Spoony could even be said to follow this Trope full circle- he became immensely popular and then left (due to business deals in 2012- Spoony still appears in some videos). In Suburban Knights, Todd in the Shadows, Kinley, and Obscurus Lupa are this, as they were added to the specials after The Year One Brawl and Kickassia had basically the same major cast both times. | |

In Spider-X, Peter Parker joins the X-Men: Evolution version of the X-Men, being immediately 'promoted' to X-Men level rather than the New Mutants given his prior experience as an independent vigilante. He is actually the seventh member of the team rather than the sixth, but he checks most of the usual qualities, particularly with his unconventional status as the team's first mutate rather than mutant member (he acquired his powers by chance rather than a natural biological development). | |

Hikari Sentai Maskman featured a sixth member for exactly one episode in the form of X1 Mask, a warrior in a green prototype suit who volunteered for the Maskman project but ended up quitting before the rest of the team was recruited after the villains killed his girlfriend. Though he manages to regain his will to fight with some encouragement, he doesn't stick around because he loses his powers shortly after as a result of shielding the other rangers from an explosion. | |

Runaways: Topher is set up a little too obviously as one of these, and then reveals himself as a Sixth Ranger Traitor in short order.

The second season of Hikonin Sentai Akibaranger teases this trope a few times but it never actually happens. In an altered reality where the Akibarangers replaced the Dairangers, Kibaranger has a grudge against the Akibarangers because he was supposed to be their fourth member but never got to appear on television due to the show being cancelled, and it is speculated that they would have also had a fifth member called Aranger. In one episode, Luna suggests that they recruit a famous idol star as their fourth member to be Akiba White but this idea is rejected. In the following battle with the Monster of the Week in the delusion world, said idol does actually appear to help the rangers but in the form of a Magical Girl instead of a ranger. Later when it seems the Big Bad of the season has become unbeatable a new hero called Prism Ace shows up to save the rangers and at first it seems like they are getting a fourth member but it actually turns out to be a Hostile Show Takeover. | |

Transformers: Dark of the Moon - After the Autobots learn of an Autobot starship hidden on the moon's dark side, they go up to retrieve its captain, Sentinel Prime. Sentinel then joins the Autobots at NEST, before revealing himself to be a traitor. Unknown to the others, he had struck a deal with Megatron near the war's end to work together rebuilding Cybertron. He then murders Ironhide, before taking the Space Bridge pillars and meeting up with Megatron, with the intention of bringing Cybertron close to Earth, and using humanity to rebuild Cybertron as a slave labor force. | |

Prehistoric Park Reimagined: In contrast to her Prehistoric Earth counterpart Cynthia Night, who joined the rescue team at a point where the initial five team members' general positions and dynamics with each other on the team still hadn't yet been fully defined and set in stone by the narrative, Cynthia Knightly ends up joining the rescue team in this story immediately after an entire prior 'season' has unfolded long enough to allow Drew, Jack, Adrian, Leon and Alice to comfortably solidify themselves as a Five-Man Band. | |

Go! Princess Pretty Cure adds former Princess Twilight (a.k.a. Princess Towa Akagi of the Hope Kingdom) as Cure Scarlet midway. Her addition leads to the creation of a completely new set of Princess Keys, and she uses a different weapon and has different powers than the other three girls. Also unlike the others, Cure Scarlet doesn't represent one of the individual aspects of a princess, but combines all three of them due to her Blue Blood status. | |

Excepting Big One, the first prototype Sixth Ranger appeared in episode 41 of Dai Sentai Goggle Five, in which a comical family man, while making it clear he is not a member of the team, wears a bodysuit which exposes his face and rides a Cool Bike, making him more of an ''Un''Kamen Rider''. Heck, his super suit was even created by the bad guys. | |

Bakuryuu Sentai Abaranger had not only two additions (Abare Black and Abare Killer), but AbaRed also got a Super Mode called Abare Max. The writers of Power Rangers: Dino Thunder, which was under production while Abaranger was starting to air in Japan, planned to turn Abare Max into an actual sixth team member known as the Triassic Ranger until Abare Max's debut episode revealed that it was just a powerup for the Red Ranger. | |

Kamen Rider Zero-One: The role is filled by Kamen Rider Thouser — but rather than a new ally, he's the new Big Bad. He was The Man Behind the Man manipulating the previous villains and is now taking a more active role since they were defeated and shifted Out of Focus. Very late in the series, though, he has an abrupt Heel Realization and starts fighting alongside Zero-One and his allies as he tries to make things up to them. | |

Fate Revelation Online: Shirou is explicitly nicknamed this, due to his rampant heroism in the early days of SAO. He even gets an appropriate white jumpsuit and mask made for him. In the early days, it's half a joke and half an insult, as a lot of people assume he's a Glory Hound or a kill-stealing jackass. As the game goes on, however, everyone realizes he is absolutely genuine, and he becomes Shrouded in Myth. | |

Harry Potter: After the events of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Sirius Black largely fills this role in the fourth and fifth books, becoming Harry's go-to guy when in need of advice or moral support. Starting in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Neville, Luna, and Ginny (all of whom but Luna had been recurring characters before) began to function as a sort of auxiliary trio to the main characters. Averted in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Remus Lupin tries to become this by offering the Trio to join them on their quest to defeat Voldemort, but Harry refuses the offer when he discovers Lupin is trying to escape the responsibilities of being a good husband and father, by leaving the pregnant Tonks to her fate. Since Harry lost his parents when they gave their live to save him, Harry really dislikes it when someone tries to abandon his or her responsibility as a parent. Tragically, not only does Lupin die in the final battle, but so does Tonks, leaving their son an orphan. Word of God rubs the salt further by stating that Lupin has lost most of his dueling reflexes because he doesn't get to fight much (which joining Harry would lead to plenty of), leading to his demise. Nice Job Breaking It, Hero. |

Kamen Rider Hibiki At first, the show focuses on Kamen Riders Hibiki and Ibuki, and their respective (not-yet-Rider) apprentices Asumu and Akira. Instead of a single "Sixth", they're joined by another master-apprentice pair of Kamen Riders Zanki and Todoroki. In an example that doesn't involve a new Rider, a Retool adds a new cast member named Kyosuke Kiriya as a Jerkass Rival for Asumu. For the record, none of the apprentices ascend to Riderhood and become Sixth Rangers to their masters, at least not during the show's main plot. Akira did manage a half-transformation at one point and Kyosuke has become a full Rider by a post-Time Skip epilogue, but Asumu and Akira ultimately walked away from that life. |

Lewis Brindley to Sips for the Trouble in Terrorist Town playthrough, and eventually many other Garry's Mod-themed videos. Initially, the series had involved Sips, Hat Films and Turpster playing various Garry's Mod gametypes, but adding Lewis to it shook up the dynamic, adding a sixth member to the videos. On top of that, Lewis only appeared in TTT and not in other gametypes until September 2014, where he eventually joined Murder and Prop Hunt as well. Prop Hunt on Sips' channel eventually adds both Lewis and PyrionFlax, and then Sjin joined up with Sips and company for a new series of TTT, bringing the total number of players to seven. Strippin then joined up for Murder and Prop Hunt in November 2014, staying for one series. After this, the lineup changed for some videos altogether, with Lewis and Sips returning and newcomers Hannah Rutherford, Simon Lane, Kim Richards, and Duncan Jones replacing everyone else. | |

Kamen Rider Agito starts out with the titular Agito, as well as a technological Rider named G3. However, the premise of the show is such that there are many people who have the potential to become an "Agito", resulting in the later appearances of the flawed Gills and Another Agito, and eventually all four Riders ally themselves with one another. Dishonorable mention also goes to resident jerkass Toru Hojo who, mid-way through the series, assumes a pseudo-Rider suit designated V1 for Victory (essentially a Frankenstein of Metal Heroes costume parts) in a bid to replace G3, only to fail spectacularly. | |

There are some borderline examples in the first Dinoverse in Loki and Beanie. Loki never really joins so much as he comes and goes, mostly overseeing Janine. Beanie shows up late and sticks right to Bertram's side. There is a much clearer example in the second set in Green Knight/GK, who in his first appearance tries to eat Zane. (It should be noted that GK is a predatory dinosaur.) GK's love for Patience is strong enough that he follows her around and refrains from eating her friends, and in fact tries to save one of them in the climax. | |

In Kamen Rider Drive, Kiriko's little brother pops up with Rider powers of his own as Kamen Rider Mach and starts fighting alongside Drive on the battlefield and assisting the police unit that Drive and Kiriko are a part of off of it. Later, The Dragon Mashin Chaser has a Heel–Face Turn and joins the Riders as Kamen Rider Chaser. | |

Kamen Rider Ex-Aid mainly features a Power Trio of Ex-Aid, Brave, and Snipe; but plays with the "Sixth Ranger" concept with a number of other Riders: The new Rider debuting in the second quarter is Para-DX, and Kamen Rider Genm gets a major upgrade complete with a new Transformation Trinket system around that time as well. But they're a Big Bad Duumvirate, using their new powers to step out of the shadows and take the fight to the heroes directly. Much later on, supporting characters Poppy and Nico get powers and fight alongside the three as genuine allies, but they rarely take the field with the others and the show hasn't treated them as full teammates. Instead, an Enemy Mine situation develops with Genm, and he's the one who begins acting as the group's Sixth Ranger. Kamen Rider Lazer was originally introduced as the fourth main character, only to get killed off at the end of the first act. He returns Back from the Dead later, but by that point has been absent so long that he functionally acts as another Sixth alongside Genm. |

Kamen Rider Geats features Riders competing with each other in a Deadly Game would inevitably have Riders come and go much like Ryuki. While there are more Riders that are involved alongside the normal players, the show begins and ends with the main quartet of Geats, Tycoon, Na-Go, and Buffa. Of the additional players that are outside of the quartet that are introduced as such, PunkJack and Nadge-Sparrow are the most recurring ones. The two don't appear as Riders much once they become recurring characters however. The end of the first quarter sees the introduction of Kamen Rider Glare, another case of the new Rider being an enemy. He's the Game Master who is tired of Geats' snooping and uses his own Rider gear, completely unlike those of the players', to take care of him for good. Subverted when he only lasts three episodes before his boss catches wind of his breaking the rules and fires him. Other staff members would continue to suit up from time to time with Palette Swaps of Glare's suit to keep the game on track, but even as a collective group they don't show up that often. A little while later at the halfway point, the game's audience start inserting themselves into the game as well, with their own Rider equipment separate from both the players and staff. It starts when one tries to usurp the game for her own ends and the others jump in to stop her. Of these, Ziin is most like a traditional Sixth, as he enjoys fighting alongside Geats whenever the opportunity arises, while the other allied sponsors prefer to provide support from the sidelines and only make token appearances in battle as Riders. But even then, Ziin is only a regular for one story arc and makes few appearances afterward. |

Kamen Rider Ryuki has several Riders, some good and some evil, that weave in and out of the story. The main heroes are Ryuki and Knight, who work as allies through most of the series with Ryuki as The Cape and Knight as The Cowl; the one who fits this trope and makes their duo a Power Trio midseason is Kamen Rider Raia. He eventually dies Taking the Bullet for Ryuki. Its adaptation Kamen Rider Dragon Knight has a similar setup with their counterparts Dragon Knight, Wing Knight, and Sting (complete with Sting getting "vented"); but later on it takes another Rider, Siren, and makes her an Ascended Extra (compared to her Ryuki counterpart Femme, who was only in the questionably canon/retconned Episode Final movie) as she joins the heroes' team as well. | |

Kamen Rider Saber: After spending the first story arc as a Mysterious Watcher, Kamen Rider Saikou steps in to defend Saber when the other Riders are manipulated into turning against him. He becomes Saber's only ally as the rest of the Riders try to hunt them down. Later on, after Saber is able to get most of his friends back on his side, Co-Dragons Kamen Riders Sabela and Durendal realize that their boss is a Not-So-Well-Intentioned Extremist; and when he betrays them with "You Have Outlived Your Usefulness" they begrudgingly join Saber's group to help stop him. | |

Guardians of the Galaxy: The original team starts out as four guys. They're joined by Aloof Ally Starhawk in their third appearance, in a crossover with The Defenders, and he joins permanently in their following series. The second issue of that then introduces Nikki Gold, who rounds out the classic team's roster. (Starhawk's sister, Aleta, who's introduced at the same time, however, doesn't get this status. She isn't treated as an official member until the 90s, and since then has largely been forgotten whenever the team shows up.) | |

Shion from Higurashi: When They Cry: Mion's identical twin sister Shion is introduced in the second arc, with foreshadowing in the first arc (Mion knew that Keiichi talked to Oishi at Angel Mort because her sister works there). She becomes a core character in the Answer arcs, where she transfers to the local school and becomes Satoko's Cool Big Sis. Hanyuu has been a character since the first arc and is foreshadowed early on, but she isn't properly introduced until the Answer arcs. She becomes a part of the main gang in the final arc. |

When the original X-Men "graduate" to make room for the next team, the lineup remains fairly constant...Wolverine, Storm, Nightcrawler, Colossus, and Cyclops, with Banshee or Jean Grey "Phoenix" rounding out the squad on occasions...until after The Dark Phoenix Saga, when the team picks up Tagalong Kid Kitty "Sprite" Pryde. In an interesting inversion, she started off without much combat effectiveness, and took several levels in badass as her time with the team progressed. | |

Power Rangers Beast Morphers plays with the trope quite a lot. Nate, who was Mission Control in the first seven episodes (much like Cam) and the genius behind the Rangers' powers, gains his own Ranger form in episode 8, and, like his Super Sentai counterpart Masato Jin has a robot buddy as the second Sixth Ranger of their team. Steel, who is a Large Ham and a bit of a Cloudcuckoolander as opposed to Nate's more down to earth personality, is basically a Sixth Ranger taken to the max, only having been built in the episode of his debut and being enthusiastic as heck about all the Ranger-y stuff. Not to mention the fact that he's easily the strongest when Ravi's not using his gorilla strength. In one of the movies the Go-Busters actually did get a sixth member who was literally the sixth in the form of a green ranger who died tragically and temporarily got a black seventh member when the ranger's mentor gets his own suit but those two are not canon because they only appeared in an alternate timeline that was erased. | |

One of the two aversions the series has to this trope is Futari wa Pretty Cure Splash★Star, where the Cures instead get a power up and new identities to boot.

HuGtto! Pretty Cure adds two: Ruru Amour, an enemy android turned good, as Cure Amour, and Emiru Aisaki, a classmate of one of the original three Cures' younger sister, as Cure Ma Chérie. The kicker? The two of them form a duo, similar like the very original Odd Couple, making a Three Plus Two team. Cure Amour and Cure Ma Chérie transform only as a duo and they attack as a duo. An interesting bit about Hugtto's Sixth Cure case is that there's only four Transformation Trinkets available initially. Since three were already taken by the initial 3 members (leaving only one left), how did Hugtto ended up with two extra Cures? Because Ruru and Emiru's desire to become Cures together was so strong, the fifth one was created by duplicating the fourth transformation device thanks to an appropriately-timed Deus ex Machina. |

The predecessor to Zyuranger, Choujin Sentai Jetman had a trio of ranger-like warriors from another dimension with their own mech join up with the Jetman team only to get killed off in their second episode with two of them never even getting to transform, although their mech survived and became part of the Jetman arsenal). Jetman also has the distinction of having a sequel manga with a sixth member, Green Eagle, to replace their dead member Black Condor. MMPR is also a key example of just how much Popularity Power a Sixth Ranger can have. The trope-naming character, Tommy Oliver, is a mainstay in the Power Rangers setting, and he (and his actor, Jason David Frank) has been a regular for five seasons (two and a half of Mighty Morphin, Zeo, half of Turbo, and Dino Thunder) where the cast is now usually refreshed yearly. The only ones who even come close to such a record are Those Two Guys Bulk and Skull (all three seasons of Mighty Morphin, Zeo, Turbo, and in Space; plus Bulk's semiregular appearances in Lost Galaxy and Samurai). Big One is similarly popular after he completely stole the show in JAKQ, becoming one of the three possible candidates for being the Big Good of every Sentai team in existence, the other two being Akarenger and the recurring anniversary hero (And Tōru Furuya voiced) AkaRed, who first debuted in GoGo Sentai Boukenger vs. Super Sentai, and has been a mainstay in every anniversary season since (Except for Kikai Sentai Zenkaiger). |

HappinessCharge Pretty Cure! has Third Cure Honey and Fourth Cure Fortune. Like Moonlight and Muse, Fortune appears early in the series but doesn't join until later. Cure Honey still joins relatively early, but later than one would expect, and she uses a different weapon than the others. Cure Fortune gains a new transformation and a new weapon as a result of her original Transformation Trinket being destroyed, and she joins the team around the time the other Sixth Ranger characters would. Notably, both, Cure Honey and Cure Fortune, had been promoted to be members of the quartet even before the show began, so it was only a matter of time when they would officially join. | |

The concept really took hold when Ninpuu Sentai Hurricaneger and Power Rangers Ninja Storm reintroduced the Three Plus Two format last seen in Liveman, allowing for the addition of more new members than in previous shows. The Gouraigers/Thunder Rangers were added first to fill out a five-man team before the introduction of an actual sixth member in the form of Shurikenger/the Green Samurai Ranger. Many subsequent seasons followed suit with more than one addition - Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger/Power Rangers S.P.D. and Engine Sentai Go-onger/Power Rangers RPM even went up to seven full-time members each; Dekaranger/SPD with two single additions to a team of five and Go-onger/RPM starting off with three heroes and then adding two sets of two. As GaoSilver was still a loner, Shurikenger was faceless and AbareKiller was a villain for the most part, some count Deka Break as the first modern Sixth Ranger of Super Sentai, the one who dispensed with the Early-Installment Weirdness as he firmly became a piece of the team. Again, for Power Rangers this goes back to Tommy. Dekaranger, in fact, went even further. "Deka" is Japanese slang for 'detective,' but since the 'deca-' prefix means ten of something, they went ahead and had ten Rangers total with the aforementioned seven full-time teammates, plus one reserve member and two One Shot Characters: Deka Swan (Normally acts as Mission Control and suits up only during emergencies), Deka Bright (a Distaff Counterpart to Deka Break, one of the regulars, who also is Deka Break's superior), and Deka Gold (a movie-exclusive character who barely gets to do an Ass Kicking Pose before being blasted). SPD carried over the first two as the Cat Ranger and Nova Ranger, respectively. But it is also implied that there are far more Dekarangers that haven't been seen. Several other series have since driven their total number of heroes up past six with One-Shots, Eleventh Hour Rangers and the like. Mahou Sentai Magiranger/Power Rangers Mystic Force, Samurai Sentai Shinkenger/Power Rangers Samurai, Shuriken Sentai Ninninger, and Doubutsu Sentai Zyuohger all added one or two Eleventh Hour Rangers near the end of the series, plus Ninninger had two additional One-Shots. Power Rangers Jungle Fury had five regulars plus three recurring Rangers (see below), and Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger/Power Rangers Dino Charge had six regulars plus three recurring and one at the Eleventh Hour. note Kyoryuger actually had a total of eleven different ranger suits but the navy suit was never used by an additional team member, only being used first when it got stolen by a villain and later would be temporarily used by a member of an entirely new team of Kyoryugers in the future who ended up switching to the red suit. |

Frivolesque mostly focuses on five main characters. And then there's Clementine, one of the secondary cast members, having her own subplot and appearing every so often. Many people consider her to be the sixth main character. | |

In Jikuu Senshi Spielban, the situation was more like a typical sixth ranger; Red Python's counterpart, after being freed, joined the team with a new suit that matched Diana's (Kaitlin's counterpart), with her weapon from the time she was Hellvira included. | |

Back when the X-Men were a Five-Man Band, Mimic was the first new student at Xavier's (also the first non-mutant X-Man). He's been a low-level criminal since leaving the team (a waste of potential after seeing his Exiles counterpart in action). | |

Super Sentai's sibling franchise, Kamen Rider, also carries on the practice of adding a major new Kamen Rider to the cast at about a quarter of the way into the show, often distinguished from the original Riders by new gear (aka a new set of toys to buy). However, Kamen Rider tends to be less black-and-white than Super Sentai is; so the new Kamen Rider is usually not immediately presented as the heroes' ally and instead may be introduced as part of a new third faction in the conflict or even as one of the villains. Even ones that are unambiguously good generally start out as Headbutting Heroes that clash with the established group to a degree. Sooner or later, however, they will align themselves with the main hero and his supporting cast and become part of their team. (Keep in mind, though, that while "Second Rider" is the Rider fandom's counterpart term to Sentai's "Sixth Ranger", it isn't quite the same — they tend to use it to refer to the show's Deuteragonist, which often overlaps with "new character" but can just as easily be someone who was a cast member from the beginning.) Kamen Rider Agito starts out with the titular Agito, as well as a technological Rider named G3. However, the premise of the show is such that there are many people who have the potential to become an "Agito", resulting in the later appearances of the flawed Gills and Another Agito, and eventually all four Riders ally themselves with one another. Dishonorable mention also goes to resident jerkass Toru Hojo who, mid-way through the series, assumes a pseudo-Rider suit designated V1 for Victory (essentially a Frankenstein of Metal Heroes costume parts) in a bid to replace G3, only to fail spectacularly. Kamen Rider Ryuki has several Riders, some good and some evil, that weave in and out of the story. The main heroes are Ryuki and Knight, who work as allies through most of the series with Ryuki as The Cape and Knight as The Cowl; the one who fits this trope and makes their duo a Power Trio midseason is Kamen Rider Raia. He eventually dies Taking the Bullet for Ryuki. Its adaptation Kamen Rider Dragon Knight has a similar setup with their counterparts Dragon Knight, Wing Knight, and Sting (complete with Sting getting "vented"); but later on it takes another Rider, Siren, and makes her an Ascended Extra (compared to her Ryuki counterpart Femme, who was only in the questionably canon/retconned Episode Final movie) as she joins the heroes' team as well. Kamen Rider 555 starts out with just Faiz before throwing Kaixa into the mix. Later, a third set of gear for Delta appears, and although it is used by several people, eventually one user gets primary use of the armor. Kamen Rider Blade starts with a duo (Blade and Garren) that becomes a Power Trio: Chalice is there from the start but takes a while to go from Aloof Ally to... still-not-quite-friendly ally. The Sixth Ranger position goes to the fourth, Leangle, after starting out as a bad guy. Kamen Rider Hibiki At first, the show focuses on Kamen Riders Hibiki and Ibuki, and their respective (not-yet-Rider) apprentices Asumu and Akira. Instead of a single "Sixth", they're joined by another master-apprentice pair of Kamen Riders Zanki and Todoroki. In an example that doesn't involve a new Rider, a Retool adds a new cast member named Kyosuke Kiriya as a Jerkass Rival for Asumu. For the record, none of the apprentices ascend to Riderhood and become Sixth Rangers to their masters, at least not during the show's main plot. Akira did manage a half-transformation at one point and Kyosuke has become a full Rider by a post-Time Skip epilogue, but Asumu and Akira ultimately walked away from that life. In Kamen Rider Kabuto, Kamen Riders Drake and Sasword both debut during the second quarter of the show (though Drake ends up Commuting on a Bus and only appears occasionally). Technically, so does Kamen Rider Gatack, but that's just a new powerset given to someone who has always been part of the cast (and is arguably more of the series protagonist than Kabuto is). Kamen Rider Den-O: As Den-O and a group of Imagin allies work to protect the timeline, Ryotaro runs into Yuto Sakurai, another Kamen Rider (Zeronos) fighting the villains for personal reasons; as well as Yuto's own Imagin partner Deneb. In contrast to kind-hearted Ryotaro, Yuto is bad-tempered and antisocial, but he does mellow out over time and he and Deneb start to work more closely with the Den-Liner crew. Sieg also qualifies; he's a friendly but arrogant Imagin who is perfectly willing to lend Ryotaro a hand, but the rest of the Imagin hate him and keep him from becoming a permanent member of their team. As such, he is only relegated to his debut which was itself a tie-in to The Movie I'm Born!; Sieg later appears in the finale and has appearances in a few other movies that feature Den-O and friends. Kamen Rider Kiva introduces Keisuke Nago a.k.a. Kamen Rider IXA, a colleague of one of Wataru's friends who takes a liking to the guy and begins informally mentoring him — but as IXA he's an overzealous Vampire Hunter who thinks Kiva is a threat, not realizing that Wataru and Kiva are one and the same. And then later in the show comes Kamen Rider Saga, who goes through the Heel–Face Revolving Door as he's Wataru's friend and half-brother but doesn't understand why he sticks his neck out for humanity so much; plus they're in a Love Triangle over the same girl. Kamen Rider Decade starts out with Tsukasa just the titular Decade, then halfway through the series Daiki Kaito appears who apparently knows truth about who Tsukasa is (though we never learn it ourselves) and has the power to turn into Kamen Rider Diend. While Decade has the power to transform into the nine predecessor Kamen Riders, Diend has the power to summon any of the preceding series' non-title Kamen Riders. The midseason Rider in Kamen Rider Double is Kamen Rider Accel. Where the two people behind Double run a private detective agency investigating the Dopant Monsters of the Week, Accel is a member of the police newly assigned to Dopant cases. They actually become fast friends almost immediately and start teaming together on those cases. A sequel manga/anime, Fuuto P.I., adds a woman named Tokime to the existing TV show cast, as a person of interest in the first case who joins the detective agency afterwards. Kamen Rider OOO: OOO and his ally Ankh are joined midway through by Akira Date as Kamen Rider Birth, and they actually fall into a good working relationship fairly quickly; partly because Date is an easygoing Punch-Clock Hero and partly because their goals are compatible: Eiji just wants to protect people, Ankh desires the powerful Core Medals held by the Big Bads, while Date was hired to collect the less valuable but more numerous Cell Medals. Okay, Ankh doesn't like Date much, but Ankh is a greedy selfish jerk who doesn't like anybody. Late in the show, Date leaves to take care of personal matters and passes the mantle of Birth to Shintaro Goto. Goto had filled the secondary Riders' usual antagonistic role early on by being jealous that Eiji got to be the superhero, but after being reprimanded for his pride he spent time learning humility and acting as Date's backup. He gets to become the new Birth as a reward for this Character Development, while Date eventually returns in the final episodes to act as Goto's backup with a spare set of prototype Birth armor. Kamen Rider Fourze: Ryusei Sakuta starts off as a New Transfer Student who asks to join the heroes' group, the Kamen Rider Club. What they don't know is that he's got an agenda and infiltrating the club for his own ends, and that he's also the mysterious Kamen Rider Meteor that has started getting involved in Fourze's battles. Naturally, he starts Becoming the Mask and grows into an actual ally. In Kamen Rider Wizard, Kamen Rider Beast shows up out of nowhere and declares himself Wizard's Rival, partly due to a misunderstanding about how Wizard's powers work that made him think they were competing for monster kills. Even so, he treats it as a Friendly Rivalry and they get along pretty well. Averted in Kamen Rider Gaim. Like in Ryuki, there are a bunch of Riders with various levels of "good" and "evil", but in this case there are almost no true allies amongst them. Four "New Generation Riders" appear at the usual end-of-quarter mark, but they're antagonists. One of them, Kamen Rider Zangetsu, is a genuinely good person and tries to join Gaim's side once he realizes they're on the same page, but he's marked for assassination by his treacherous colleagues and blocked from providing any actual aid for most of the series. In Kamen Rider Drive, Kiriko's little brother pops up with Rider powers of his own as Kamen Rider Mach and starts fighting alongside Drive on the battlefield and assisting the police unit that Drive and Kiriko are a part of off of it. Later, The Dragon Mashin Chaser has a Heel–Face Turn and joins the Riders as Kamen Rider Chaser. Kamen Rider Ghost and Specter are later joined by Kamen Rider Necrom, who initially was part of the Gamma forces trying to conquer humanity but gradually gained an understanding and appreciation for humans, switching sides to protect people. Kamen Rider Ex-Aid mainly features a Power Trio of Ex-Aid, Brave, and Snipe; but plays with the "Sixth Ranger" concept with a number of other Riders: The new Rider debuting in the second quarter is Para-DX, and Kamen Rider Genm gets a major upgrade complete with a new Transformation Trinket system around that time as well. But they're a Big Bad Duumvirate, using their new powers to step out of the shadows and take the fight to the heroes directly. Much later on, supporting characters Poppy and Nico get powers and fight alongside the three as genuine allies, but they rarely take the field with the others and the show hasn't treated them as full teammates. Instead, an Enemy Mine situation develops with Genm, and he's the one who begins acting as the group's Sixth Ranger. Kamen Rider Lazer was originally introduced as the fourth main character, only to get killed off at the end of the first act. He returns Back from the Dead later, but by that point has been absent so long that he functionally acts as another Sixth alongside Genm. Kamen Rider Build: Kamen Rider Grease initially opposes the main duo of Build and Cross-Z due to fighting for an enemy nation, but he's a good man who just happens to be on the other side; and eventually alliances shift so they end up on the same side against other threats. Late in the series, longtime antagonist Night Rogue AKA Kamen Rider Rogue completes a long-brewing Heel–Face Turn and starts fighting alongside them as well. Kamen Rider Zi-O starts with Kamen Riders Zi-O and Geiz, who have Teeth-Clenched Teamwork, as well as supporting character Woz who idolizes Zi-O and acts as his Hammy Herald. The third Rider to appear is "White" Woz aka Kamen Rider Woz, an alternate-timeline version of the original "Black" Woz who reveres Geiz as much as the first Woz worships Zi-O (or at least claims to), heightening the rivalry between the two. Eventually Black Woz steals his powers and takes over as Kamen Rider, and a few episodes later White Woz is Ret-Gone when his home timeline will no longer happen. Decade and Diend also return from their own series, and effectively become Sixth Rangers to the Zi-O cast when they become heavily involved in the show's final story arc. Kamen Rider Zero-One: The role is filled by Kamen Rider Thouser — but rather than a new ally, he's the new Big Bad. He was The Man Behind the Man manipulating the previous villains and is now taking a more active role since they were defeated and shifted Out of Focus. Very late in the series, though, he has an abrupt Heel Realization and starts fighting alongside Zero-One and his allies as he tries to make things up to them. Kamen Rider Saber: After spending the first story arc as a Mysterious Watcher, Kamen Rider Saikou steps in to defend Saber when the other Riders are manipulated into turning against him. He becomes Saber's only ally as the rest of the Riders try to hunt them down. Later on, after Saber is able to get most of his friends back on his side, Co-Dragons Kamen Riders Sabela and Durendal realize that their boss is a Not-So-Well-Intentioned Extremist; and when he betrays them with "You Have Outlived Your Usefulness" they begrudgingly join Saber's group to help stop him. Kamen Rider Revice: Averted early on, as the show introduces all its main Riders in the first quarter and doesn't add new ones in the second. However, Kamen Rider Demons can be considered an honorary one, as while the rest of the Riders are a Sibling Team, Demons is instead an outside ally. In fact, it could be considered an inversion, as instead of adding a new Rider, the show removes one by writing Demons out (he's seemingly killed off, and even when he turns up alive later he's still too frail to return to active duty). Multiple Riders join the heroes late in the story, though none of them really rise to the level of the main Sibling Team. Most have little role in the plot and merely help fill in fight scenes: Aguilera and the second Over Demons are redeemed villains who had already completed their character arcs, while the first Over Demons had always been a bit character. Meanwhile, Kamen Rider Destream has an actual role in the plot, being the siblings' father; but he only appears a few times in which he only fights solo, never alongside his kids. Kamen Rider Geats features Riders competing with each other in a Deadly Game would inevitably have Riders come and go much like Ryuki. While there are more Riders that are involved alongside the normal players, the show begins and ends with the main quartet of Geats, Tycoon, Na-Go, and Buffa. Of the additional players that are outside of the quartet that are introduced as such, PunkJack and Nadge-Sparrow are the most recurring ones. The two don't appear as Riders much once they become recurring characters however. The end of the first quarter sees the introduction of Kamen Rider Glare, another case of the new Rider being an enemy. He's the Game Master who is tired of Geats' snooping and uses his own Rider gear, completely unlike those of the players', to take care of him for good. Subverted when he only lasts three episodes before his boss catches wind of his breaking the rules and fires him. Other staff members would continue to suit up from time to time with Palette Swaps of Glare's suit to keep the game on track, but even as a collective group they don't show up that often. A little while later at the halfway point, the game's audience start inserting themselves into the game as well, with their own Rider equipment separate from both the players and staff. It starts when one tries to usurp the game for her own ends and the others jump in to stop her. Of these, Ziin is most like a traditional Sixth, as he enjoys fighting alongside Geats whenever the opportunity arises, while the other allied sponsors prefer to provide support from the sidelines and only make token appearances in battle as Riders. But even then, Ziin is only a regular for one story arc and makes few appearances afterward. In Kamen Rider Gotchard, Gotchard's friend and ally Rinne had been backing him up the whole time, but she resolves to step up and fight for her own beliefs more strongly and becomes Kamen Rider Majade, joining Gotchard on the field as an equal partner. At about the same time, The Rival Valvarad upgrades his powers to become Kamen Rider Valvarad, but he makes clear that I Work Alone and won't be joining Gotchard, Majade, and their friends just yet. |

The titular guild from Noob gets a few additions over the course of the series: Ivy and Couette joined at the same time, giving the guild a Gadgeteer Genius and a second healer.

Pony POV Series: Trixie serves this role, being a second Element of Magic and performing a Heel–Face Turn when Twilight saved her from her Discording and an Enemy Within named Loneliness, joining the group afterwards. She proves to be a powerful ally, not only sharing Twilight's Power Copying ability, but by being a cunning Guile Heroine who makes good use of her weather generating abilities. Fluttercruel also ends up joining the team, after she pulls a Heel–Face Turn, nearly performs a Heroic Sacrifice to defeat Nightmare Whisper, is discovered to be a second Element of Kindness, and she and Fluttershy are given the ability to swap control of their body by Celestia. In the Dark World arc, Ditzy Doo/Derpy Hooves, Apple Pie, and Spike join the redeemed members of the Mane Cast as the new Elements of Loyalty, Laughter, and Generosity, respectfully. Also in Dark World, there's a villainous example, as Discord's sister Rancor joins up with the villains just as the Elements of Harmony start their campaign to liberate Equestria from Discord. Becomes a Sixth Ranger Traitor, as it turns out she was only bidding her time until she could steal Destruction's power from Discord for herself. Rainbow Dash gets demoted to this — unlike the other Mane Six, she goes into a Deep Sleep after her redemption in order to recover spiritually from the trauma of everything Discord put her through. As such, she doesn't join in the fight against Discord's forces until she shows up in time to save the others from Odyne!Cruelty. Likewise, Pinkie Pie, who isn't redeemed until close to the end of the arc and dies soon after anyway. Shining Armor's side story has a rather literal example — Cadence has Private Garnet reassigned to Misfit Actual (Shining's unit) not just for her medical skills, but because regulations dictate that units need to have six members. Silver Spoon ends up joining the Cutie Mark Crusaders, and is rather determined to make former friend Diamond Tiara join them too. |

The Metal Heroes franchise is no stranger to this trope, though: Tokusou Robo Janperson has a robot named Gun Gibson, a redeemed villain who's at first far more concerned with getting revenge on one of the main villains than he is with anything like helping people, and so clashes with the hero even after his initial arc as a proper 'bad guy.' He fits the secondary Kamen Rider mold pretty well! The same can be said for Ryoma Kagawa from Tokkei Winspector when he comes to the sequel series Tokkyuu Shirei Solbrain as their sixth member, complete with getting his own upgrade from the Fire armor to the KnightFire armor, and also acts as The Lancer of the team as well. |

Power Rangers Jungle Fury added the three Spirit Rangers to the original roster of Three Plus Two from Juken Sentai Gekiranger. Gekiranger already had three mentor characters who had weapons and mecha associated with them, so Jungle Fury eventually gave them Ranger suits as well in order to create action figures of them. They're unique in that either the Rangers or the mentors can project them at a distance; made from spiritual energy like the Zords of the series, nobody even needs to be physically wearing the suits. The Rangers often summoned the Spirit Rangers from their own power to fight without the mentors needing to be present, and in the finale the mentors fought alongside their own Ranger forms, awesomely. | |

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: In the original Mirage series (and most of the adaptations) this role is usually filled by Casey Jones who first met the Turtles after getting into a fight with Raphael when the latter stopped him from almost beating some street hoods to death. About a fourth of the way into its run, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Adventures, the Archie-published book based on the first animated series introduced Ninjara, a ninja foxwoman, as an antagonist. A few issues later, she joins the turtles and becomes a series regular, appearing in every story since. |

Two Sentai shows prior to Zyuranger also had their own additional members before it became a regular thing. J.A.K.Q. Dengekitai started out with a four-man team until the introduction of their new commander Big One (Sokichi Bamba), while the team in Choujuu Sentai Liveman originally consisted of three members before the addition of Black Bison and Green Sai. Other shows had guest heroes who would assist the team for two or three episodes at most, but none of them ever became recurring characters. | |

VR Troopers had one that didn't stick around: when an ally of theirs was warped into the Red Python, it was assumed she'd join the team much like the then-recent introduction of the original Power Rangers' own dark Ranger. Alas, no such luck. The only addition to the Power Trio can be said to be the clone of Kaitlin (that two-parter ends with Kaitlin and the clone being merged, and Kaitlin gaining a "Double Team" duplication ability.) In Jikuu Senshi Spielban, the situation was more like a typical sixth ranger; Red Python's counterpart, after being freed, joined the team with a new suit that matched Diana's (Kaitlin's counterpart), with her weapon from the time she was Hellvira included. |

Invocation of this trope also created an interesting situation for the production staff of the Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue. They wanted to carry on the tradition of the sixth ranger, but there was none in Kyūkyū Sentai GoGoV, the corresponding Super Sentai show (And despite Liner Boy being proclaimed as such on his debut episode by GoPink, he doesn't count). As a result, the staff created the Titanium Ranger from whole cloth and assigned him a Zord (The afforementioned Liner Boy) that didn't belong to any of the GoGoV Rangers. There was a sixth warrior in the Direct to Video The Movie in JÅ«ma Hunter Zeek. He dies and passes on his powers to Sho's (Go Green) friend Kyoko, allowing her to transform into Zeek-Jeanne, but despite being a recurring character, she does not use the Zeektector armor in the show, only to keep the number five theming. |

Magic: The Gathering has the 5 colors that represent 1/5 of the universe each, as well as artifacts that can do mostly the same things, though not as well. True to the trope, artifacts were almost nonexistent in Alpha, but have become more important (and useful) over time. Although not "good" (but, as of Eldritch Moon set plotline, not "bad" either, any more than the spring thaw's floods), the recent arrival of Eldrazi does add a more straight "sixth color" feeling to that "colorless" thing that used to be artifact's domain: a dedicated colorless mana. Prior to that, "colorless" mana meant "mana of any color you happen to have, as well as mana produced as colorless from the get-go". Now the latter is a special kind, making it for many intents and purposes the sixth color. There's even a sixth type of "basic land" added - Wastes - for its basic production. |

Yuri Leik is introduced in volume 6 as a New Transfer Student from a non-magic school, and quickly becomes a sort of auxiliary member of the Sword Roses, even joining the combat leagues as Oliver and Nanao's third after Team Mom Chela declines to participate. Arguably he's actually the Sixth Ranger Traitor, as he is in fact an Artificial Human created by Professor Demetrio Aristedes to be a Manchurian Agent to spy on the student body after the murders of two other professors. | |

Gekisou Sentai Carranger did not have an official sixth member; in fact, the show even parodied the concept with Radietta Fanbelt, a girl who dresses up as the White Racer, a self-appointed sixth member of the team. However, that did not stop Power Rangers Turbo from revamping the VRV Master, a supporting character in Carranger who appeared for a few episodes, into the Phantom Ranger. Because his Carranger counterpart was not a Ranger, there are those who also don't consider the Phantom Ranger a true Ranger despite his much-increased role and similarity to his predecessor the Gold Ranger, and feel that the sixth ranger role goes to the Blue Senturion (who was based on Signalman, the official extra hero in Carranger). | |

Basco ta Jolokia, a recurring villain in Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger, initially possesses the Ranger Keys belonging to the Sixth Rangers throughout the past 35 years (which at that time was only 15) and unlike the Gokaigers he can only summon clones of the Sixth Rangers with his Rapparatta trumpet weapon. Shortly afterwards, the Gokaigers defeat him and reclaim these other Ranger Keys, just in time for their own Sixth Ranger Gokai Silver to join the team and he gets those Ranger Keys for his own use.note Although he can use other Ranger Keys as well He has the unique ability to merge Ranger Keys together, first used to merge the Go-on Gold and Go-on Silver Keys together into a single Go-on Wings Key after being unsure about which to use when the five core Gokaigers became the Go-ongers. He can also fuse all 15 of the keys together into Gold Anchor Key that allows him to transform into the Super Mode Gold Mode. A later episode also shows him merging both Gokai Red and Green's Keys into a Gokai Christmas Key to fight a Christmas Episode Monster of the Week. Basco later reveals he has 10 more Ranger Keys, this time belonging to the "Extra Heroes" representing the Rangers beyond Sixths Deka Master, Deka Swan, Magi Mother, and Princess Shinken Red, as well as non-Ranger allies Signalman, Black Knight Hyuga, Wolzard Fire, Zubaan, Rio, and Mele. Upon his defeat, these enter Gokai Silver's arsenal as well. Gokai Silver's Power Rangers Super Megaforce counterpart the Super Megaforce Silver Ranger does not have to contend with having to obtain his Legendary Ranger Keys from a villain, and has already found them prior to joining the team. He also does not use the Extra Hero Keys aside from Wolf Warrior in one episode and Magna Defender in the extended cut of the finale. |

Some of the shows in the Ultra Series have featured secondary Ultrabeings that help out the main hero in times of need, although most of them were just guest characters that appeared for a few episodes or heroes from previous shows. It wasn't until Ultraman Gaia that the show featured two regular Ultra Heroes, the eponymous Gaia and his rival Ultraman Agul. Even then, it's used rather sparingly compared to both Super Sentai and Kamen Rider, being either not appearing much in their series proper or introduced in the post-series movie. Ultraman Mebius has Ultraman Hikari, whose story has more than passing similarities with the aforementioned Ultraman Agul, being (initially) a blue Ultra rival to the titular red Ultra hero. |

In The Heroes of Olympus series, the gods break the usual rule by sanctioning a seven-man team, justified since there are two camps participating and because their enemy is the Earth herself. But even then, Leo stands out among the group, being the only one not to have a love interest on the ship. He is outright called "the seventh wheel" once. Besides Leo, the group is also accompanied by Coach Hedge, who insists on joining as their protector, and later Nico. Both of them leave the group in the final book, leaving the seven without a Sixth Ranger. | |

The Beginning After the End: Volume 2 introduces the Lances, the six elite Magic Knights oathbound to the royal families of Dicathen. At the start of Volume 6, Arthur is inducted by Virion into their ranks as a replacement for the late Alea, whom he had discovered dying in Widow's Crypt at the end of Volume 3. The end of Volume 7 reveals that the Scythes, the elite cabal of Alacryan mages spearheading their invasion of Dicathen and the Evil Counterparts and Psycho Rangers to the Lances, have their own latecoming member to parallel Arthur. That member is none other than his former boyhood friend, Elijah Knight, who has been seemingly brainwashed into serving them. Except it turns out he is Not Brainwashed, and that "Elijah Knight" was merely a smokescreen for his true identity: Nico Sever, the former boyhood friend of Arthur's past self King Grey. The end of Volume 10 introduces Chul, a djinn/phoenix hybrid and resident of the Hearth whom accompanies Arthur in order to avenge the death of his mother at the hands of the Legacy. To an extent, Wren also qualifies in that he ended up in the Hearth after becoming a Defector from Decadence and accompanying Aldir in his exile, and after throwing in his lot with Arthur, he puts Wren to work alongside Gideon and Emily to develop new innovations for the war effort. |

Later, it followed Fresh's example and added a reformed Dark Magical Girl of its own: Cure Beat, who joins the team before Cure Muse. Both of them have different powers/weaponry from the already existing duo and each other, and both of them can transform on their own while the duo never transform without the other. | |

Kikai Sentai Zenkaiger has Twokaizer as the sixth member, who uses a golden suit based on the red ranger and mech of Gokaiger and wields Sentai gears with powers based on the Sixth Rangers and other additional Rangers of past teams; he ends up using the powers of anyone from Big One to Abare Killer to Geki Chopper to Koguma Skyblue and even the other Blue Turbo from that one episode of Turboranger. Near the end of the show they are joined by Stacaesar, an Evil Knockoff of Zenkaizer who is based on Battle Japan from Battle Fever J after he has a Heel–Face Turn. In the movie Avataro Sentai Donbrothers VS Zenkaiger, the Zenkaigers are also finally joined by Hakaizer, another knockoff of Zenkaizer who is based on Fire-Stealth Captor 7 from Ninja Captor and was freed from the villain's control during the show but didn't previously join them because he was busy looking for his missing wife. | |

Les Légendaires: The comic has had two sixth rangers so far: The first was Shun-Day, a Ninja Action Girl apprentice who temporarily joined the group in order to achieve her formation. She's eventually revealed to be a Sixth Ranger Traitor working as The Mole for the Evil Sorcerer Skroa, though she eventually develops an actual bond with the Legendaries and ends up helping them defeating her "father". The second was Tenebris, Darkhell's daughter, who joined the group in order to protect her love interest Razzia. Though her team-up with them was initially somehow intended to be temporary, she ends up joining them for real after Danael was possessed by God of Evil Anathos and became the new villain. Ironically enough, Shimy was so much expecting Tenebris to be a Sixth Ranger Traitor that she was willing to kill her in order to prevent it from happening, when in fact it turned out Tenebris remained loyal to them. |

Kousoku Sentai Turboranger episode 43 is entitled "The Sixth Warrior", but rather than introduce another prototype Sixth Ranger, the title actually refers to a young man who ends up as the Blue Ranger temporarily. This was notably poked at in Zenkaiger (see below). By this logic, Daigorou Kumano the replacement Yellow Ranger in Himitsu Sentai Gorenger would count as their sixth warrior, Maria Nagisa (Miss America II) and Makoto Jin (Battle Cossack II) the sixth and seventh warriors of Battle Fever J, Takayuki Hiba (mid-season replacement VulEagle) as the fourth warrior of Taiyou Sentai Sun Vulcan and Jun Yabuki (Yellow Four II) as the sixth warrior of Bioman. | |

El Goonish Shive started with a Comic Trio and spent over a decade with an eight-person main cast before expanding to 10. Among the eight, Justin and Nanase aren't really Sixth Rangers, but Grace might qualify if Aisha from Winx Club does. Susan and Ellen are definitely better examples, though: Susan started out disgusted with Elliot and Tedd before befriending them through Sarah, and Ellen began her life as Elliot's self-proclaimed Evil Twin. There's also Catalina (introduced 11 arcs in) occasionally added as a Sixth Ranger. She's a buddy of Susan's from the feminist club whose original purpose was to have an unrequited love for Susan and subsequently hangs out with her and Sarah sometimes. Given that six out of the original eight main characters were introduced in the first arc and Susan and Ellen in the second arc, it can be argued that none of them really count as Sixth Rangers given the length of the comic. Instead, if one considers which characters outside of the eight have become significantly close to them (to the point of inviting them over to a main character's house, especially the Verres' house) then the ones that best fit are Ashley (introduced a decade in) or Diane (introduced eight arcs in but spent a decade as a minor character). Case in point, Ashley is the first new character to be invited to the Verres' house (and hence potentially have access to all the magical stuff it contains) in a decade and Diane credibly argues for her inclusion. Catalina (and Rhoda who was introduced eight arcs in) are less like Sixth Rangers by this metric; Grace has considered inviting them but still has misgivings about it because they don't know enough about each other for Grace to be confident of a positive outcome of expanding the circle of trust to include them. Indeed, post said party, Ashley and Diane have cemented their status as main characters racking up over 300 cumulative canon appearances each while Rhoda and Catalina have less than 100. |

In Justice League: The Spider, when Spider-Man arrives in the DC Animated Universe, while he's never explicitly identified as the equivalent of a 'Sixth Ranger' as he becomes part of the Justice League's mass recruitment drive, he still ticks most of the key boxes even with the other heroes joining the team, as he had spent time living on the Watchtower with the rest of the League, was close friends with all seven founders, and officially joined the team a day or two before everyone else. | |

In The Magnificent Seven there is a bit of this going on in two ways. The character Chico is viewed as this by the other characters, although the character Lee, played by Robert Vaughn, unlike the others, does not have a counterpart in the Seven Samurai and was created specifically for the film, making him also a Sixth Ranger. | |

Denji Sentai Megaranger (Power Rangers in Space) notably introduced the Nezirangers / Psycho Rangers as a match for the Five-Man Band. Though they never had a genuine equivalent to the Sixth Ranger, he did once disguise himself as a "Psycho Silver" to confuse them. note The Boom! Studios comics of Power Rangers also introduce Psycho Green, but he never teams up with the Psycho Rangers. | |

Fans usually consider bassist Dave "Phoenix" Farrell as this. In actuality, he was a part of the original lineup, known as Xero from 1996-1998, but had touring commitments with another band called Tasty Snax, so he temporarily left the band. During the period he was away, the band recorded their first album Hybrid Theory and got their first mainstream exposure, which brought them great popularity. During the recording of the album, bass duties were split between lead guitarist Brad Delson, touring bassist Scott Koziol and session bassist Ian Hornbeck, and on the back cover, only the five main members are shown, which led many to assume those were all the people in the band. When Phoenix returned in November 2000, right as Hybrid Theory began raking up sales and the band started to enjoy stardom, many fans who didn't know about him felt that he was the Sixth Ranger joining an established band, and to many it still feels that way. | |

Kamen Rider Den-O: As Den-O and a group of Imagin allies work to protect the timeline, Ryotaro runs into Yuto Sakurai, another Kamen Rider (Zeronos) fighting the villains for personal reasons; as well as Yuto's own Imagin partner Deneb. In contrast to kind-hearted Ryotaro, Yuto is bad-tempered and antisocial, but he does mellow out over time and he and Deneb start to work more closely with the Den-Liner crew. Sieg also qualifies; he's a friendly but arrogant Imagin who is perfectly willing to lend Ryotaro a hand, but the rest of the Imagin hate him and keep him from becoming a permanent member of their team. As such, he is only relegated to his debut which was itself a tie-in to The Movie I'm Born!; Sieg later appears in the finale and has appearances in a few other movies that feature Den-O and friends. |

Averted in Kamen Rider Gaim. Like in Ryuki, there are a bunch of Riders with various levels of "good" and "evil", but in this case there are almost no true allies amongst them. Four "New Generation Riders" appear at the usual end-of-quarter mark, but they're antagonists. One of them, Kamen Rider Zangetsu, is a genuinely good person and tries to join Gaim's side once he realizes they're on the same page, but he's marked for assassination by his treacherous colleagues and blocked from providing any actual aid for most of the series. | |

And then later in the show comes Kamen Rider Saga, who goes through the Heel–Face Revolving Door as he's Wataru's friend and half-brother but doesn't understand why he sticks his neck out for humanity so much; plus they're in a Love Triangle over the same girl. | |

Iron Maiden had five men line-ups since 1980. Then when Bruce Dickinson and Adrian Smith decided to return to the band, Janick Gers served as a Sixth Ranger to a reunion of the golden years Maiden. This meant that the band had THREE GUITARISTS and is one of the few (and certainly the most popular) band to do so. It is said that Janick was kept on for three reasons - he had worked with Bruce solo, he kept the group entertained, and so that Adrian and Dave able to do twin solos and have a rhythm guitarist underneath. | |

The trope sometimes gets played with when a character has all the trappings of a Sixth Ranger, but doesn't join the team. The first Gold Ranger, Trey of Triforia, from Zeo and the aforementioned Phantom Ranger were Mysterious Protectors that only dropped in to give aid on occasion, while the Magna Defender, the Quantum Ranger, and Robo Knight were each an Aloof Ally to their resident teams, actively clashing with the Rangers over their goals. Even these were open to a Double Subversion; both the Gold Ranger and Magna Defender passed on their powers to people who did join the respective teams, while the Quantum Ranger and Robo Knight eventually became genuine allies. | |

Kaitou Sentai Lupinranger VS Keisatsu Sentai Patranger has two rival Ranger teams of three going against each other, and when a Sixth (technically Seventh at this point) shows up he joins both teams as a fourth Ranger. His entire gimmick is that all his gear has two different modes that each correspond to this dual allegiance - he even has two different super-identities, being the silver Lupin X when fighting with the Lupinrangers and the golden Patren X with the Patrangers. | |

Producer ZAK can also be considered their Sixth Ranger, as he was behind the desk for the band's seminal "Setagaya Trilogy" released during this period. |

Ohsama Sentai King-Ohger The sixth of the King-Ohgers is the white Spider Kumonos, the Half-Human Hybrid son of a sixth warrior erased from the original legends due to his forbidden relationship with a monster from the enemy forces who survived to the present due to being The Ageless but had his powers sealed away until he was able to trick the villains into unsealing them with a fake prophesy. Until the end of the first arc of the show, he is the only member of the team who is neither a king nor a prince, but plans to eventually become a king by overthrowing the first arc's Big Bad so he can make peace between humans and monsters. Interestingly, in a sense he is not a late addition to the team because while he does not appear in the beginning of the show, the team is not officially formed until episode 19, after he has already joined. So if spin-offs are not counted, this would technically make the King Ohgers the first team to start with six members. In another twist, he turns out to have been present in the show from the very beginning as The Narrator. Near the end of the show, the team is joined by Ohkuwagata Ohger, a Super Prototype of the King-Ohgers who had been pretending to be evil for most of the show as part of a plan to find a way to kill the true Big Bad. Due to his evil actions, he is not trusted by the rest of the team and so only gets to fight with them a few times. |

Basco later reveals he has 10 more Ranger Keys, this time belonging to the "Extra Heroes" representing the Rangers beyond Sixths Deka Master, Deka Swan, Magi Mother, and Princess Shinken Red, as well as non-Ranger allies Signalman, Black Knight Hyuga, Wolzard Fire, Zubaan, Rio, and Mele. Upon his defeat, these enter Gokai Silver's arsenal as well. | |

Uchu Sentai Kyuranger is a rather unique example. It actually starts with nine members (assembled over the first few episodes) and later adds three Sixths: Ryu Violet / Ryu Commander (the Eccentric Mentor / Mission Control), Koguma Skyblue (an Ascended Fanboy who Jumped at the Call), and Houou Soldier (a Sealed Good in a Can Super Prototype). Played with in that Ryu Commander and Koguma Skyblue were introduced right after the core team was assembled,note For context, the main team fully came together in Episode 5, Ryu Commander was introduced in Episodes 8 and 9, and Koguma Skyblue debuted in Episode 10. In contrast, Houou Soldier didn't show up until Episode 21. so it's not really true to say they joined "late" compared to everyone else; plus Skyblue doesn't even have the special equipment/mecha/etc. that usually sets a Sixth apart from the rest. Houou Soldier was ultimately claimed as the series' Sixth Ranger (in that he is more unique than the rest) in interviews and his inclusion amongst other Sixth Rangers in official mobile games, supported by his color scheme not matching the rest of the team (having red accents on a galaxy-print black outfit rather than black accents on their own color's outfit), his unique helmet (with the headset microphone), and piloting his own solo combining robot; Ryu Commander comparatively only has black shoulder armornote Added to hide that his costume was originally a kitbash of ToQ 7gou's suit and a long flowing cape/trenchcoat making his Ranger suit unique and is the pilot of a mecha that makes up the majority of a 3-part combining robot with two of the other Kyurangers, one of whom is Koguma Skyblue. Power Rangers Cosmic Fury, while taking some aspects from Kyuranger only has one Sixth Ranger this time around with Fern being the Orange Cosmic Fury Ranger. |

The Good, the Bad, and the Mediochre has Danny, who may also count as The Team Benefactor and The Driver since he only turns up when the heroes need someone with a van and an above-average knowledge of the Scottish road system. He leaves the group once they arrive at their destination, but turns up again in time to perform a You Shall Not Pass! moment, disappear for a while and eventually turn out to have been a Sixth Ranger Traitor all along. | |

The Camp Half-Blood Series: A three-man team is actually sanctioned by the gods; breaking it often leads to misery. In The Titan's Curse, Percy's team ends up consisting of himself, Grover, Thalia, Bianca, and Zoe. The team was originally without Percy, but he can't help but join (since what is at stake is Annabeth, Percy's Love Interest), making him the Sixth Ranger to them. Bianca dies in the middle of the quest, while Zoe dies during the final battle. In The Heroes of Olympus series, the gods break the usual rule by sanctioning a seven-man team, justified since there are two camps participating and because their enemy is the Earth herself. But even then, Leo stands out among the group, being the only one not to have a love interest on the ship. He is outright called "the seventh wheel" once. Besides Leo, the group is also accompanied by Coach Hedge, who insists on joining as their protector, and later Nico. Both of them leave the group in the final book, leaving the seven without a Sixth Ranger. In The Trials of Apollo, the only permanent members of the trials are the titular Apollo and Meg McCaffrey. Everyone else is basically a Sixth Ranger, joining the two at one time and leaving at another. In The Dark Prophecy, it's Leo and Calypso. In The Burning Maze, it's Grover and Piper. |

The Friends fic "This Charming Life" makes it clear that Mike is now considered basically part of the group after his marriage to Phoebe. While he is still sometimes taken aback by how involved the group are in each other's lives, such as when talking about Monica's troubles getting pregnant, the rest of the group make it clear that he's part of their dynamic now, such as Monica affirming that he can consider himself an Honorary Uncle to their children just as Phoebe is an honorary aunt, observing that "Aunt Phoebe and her husband Mike" would just feel wrong. | |

Kamen Rider Decade starts out with Tsukasa just the titular Decade, then halfway through the series Daiki Kaito appears who apparently knows truth about who Tsukasa is (though we never learn it ourselves) and has the power to turn into Kamen Rider Diend. While Decade has the power to transform into the nine predecessor Kamen Riders, Diend has the power to summon any of the preceding series' non-title Kamen Riders. | |

The midseason Rider in Kamen Rider Double is Kamen Rider Accel. Where the two people behind Double run a private detective agency investigating the Dopant Monsters of the Week, Accel is a member of the police newly assigned to Dopant cases. They actually become fast friends almost immediately and start teaming together on those cases. A sequel manga/anime, Fuuto P.I., adds a woman named Tokime to the existing TV show cast, as a person of interest in the first case who joins the detective agency afterwards. |

Rammstein started out with four members; guitarist Paul Landers joined shortly after hearing Rammstein's fist demo recordings, making them five. The sixth, keyboardist Flake, was essentially badgered into playing with them: they needed a keyboardist but he refused because it seemed blunt, boring, and strict. Eventually he did start to play with them on the condition that he'd leave if he'd get bored. According to Landers Flake has in fact never actually answered the question whether he'd join them or not. | |
