Line 123:
** [[Sixth Ranger|Second Rider]] [[Yuuto Sakurai]] has a very uneasy relationship with his [[Mysterious Watcher]] future self. The series treats them as separate entities for the most part, referring to the younger by his first name and the older by his surname.
*** During the episodes leading into the first movie, we have several moments where "Yuuto" yanks Ryotaro away seemingly at random and then drops him back where he came from. Ryotaro is obviously pretty upset, but when confronted Yuuto insists he hasn't done anything. Then it turns out that the version of Yuuto from a few days in the future is the one to blame, and he confronts his slightly-more-past self to explain the situation.
* [[Supernatural (TV series)|Dean Winchester]] gets sent into the future in Season 5, and meets his future self. They're more or less alike, except that the future one has finally ''completely'' [[Break the Cutie|snapped under the pressure]] of all the crap that is [[The Woobie|constantly raining down on Dean]], and abandoned all his remaining morals and standards. Seeing as Dean is already a quite pragmatic and cynical person, you can imagine [[Knight Templar|what that looks like]]. (He meets future-Castiel too, who also scares him, having gone from a guy who wouldn't know a joke if it bit him to a drugged-out sex guru.)
** Not forgetting that in that episode, Sam has been possessed by Lucifer for the last 5 years and is orchestrating a full on [[Zombie Apocalypse]].
* In ''[[Timeslip]]'', Liz and Simon both meet future counterparts of themselves. Neither of them thinks much of Liz's first counterpart, who has become inhumanly cold-hearted and clinical in the "Ice Box" research center of the far-off year 1990. Liz prefers her "hippie" future self from the alternative "Burn-Up" future of 1999, though she's troubled by her future self's seeming inability to act responsibly. Simon's future counterpart has given up his name in favor of an number, and has become opportunistic and ultra-rational to compete in the emotionless clone-dominated scientific community of the future. Simon, for some reason, likes and respects this future version of himself, until he turns out to be a bit of a tool.
