Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker + Village Bell-Ringer

Overview
Tapping Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker to create a token copy of Village Bell-Ringer produces a haste token that’s created by Kiki-Jiki’s ability and has an ETB that untaps all your creatures, including Kiki-Jiki. Because the token has haste () it may activate tap abilities immediately () and the token’s ETB untaps Kiki-Jiki so you can tap it again (summoning-sickness restrictions are overridden by haste per and ). Each token created by Kiki-Jiki this way will be sacrificed at the beginning of the next end step (the delayed sacrifice is applied by Kiki-Jiki’s ability). The interaction therefore allows you to produce arbitrarily many Village Bell-Ringer tokens in the same turn, each untapping Kiki-Jiki as it enters. If a different effect (for example, Clone) becomes a copy of a Kiki-Jiki-created token, that new copy will copy the underlying creature card (Village Bell-Ringer) and have haste, but it will not have Kiki-Jiki’s delayed sacrifice instruction (Ruling [2021-03-19]).
Step 1
Have Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker and Village Bell-Ringer on the battlefield under your control (Village Bell-Ringer must be nonlegendary).
Step 2
Activate Kiki-Jiki’s ability by tapping it: it creates a token that is a copy of the target Village Bell-Ringer, except the token has haste and the creation ability also causes that token to be sacrificed at the beginning of the next end step.
Step 3
The token enters the battlefield with haste (see ), so it can activate abilities with a tap cost immediately and its ETB triggers. Village Bell-Ringer’s ETB triggers and when that trigger resolves it untaps all creatures you control (including Kiki-Jiki) — untapping an attacking creature does not remove it from combat ([2011-09-22]).
Step 4
Because Kiki-Jiki is now untapped you may activate its ability again (summoning-sickness restrictions that would prevent tapping a newly-entered creature are overridden for creatures with haste per and where relevant).
Step 5
Repeat the create-token → token ETB untaps Kiki-Jiki sequence as desired. Each token created by Kiki-Jiki this way will be sacrificed at the beginning of the next end step (that delayed sacrifice is tied to the token created by Kiki-Jiki).
Step 6
If instead some other effect makes a permanent become a copy of one of those tokens (for example Clone copying a Kiki-Jiki-created token), that new permanent will copy the underlying creature card (Village Bell-Ringer) and will have haste, but it will not have the delayed sacrifice applied by Kiki-Jiki (Ruling [2021-03-19]).
Resolution
You can repeatedly activate Kiki-Jiki to make a haste token copy of Village Bell-Ringer; when each token enters it untaps Kiki-Jiki, letting you tap it again to make another token. Each token created by Kiki-Jiki this way will be sacrificed at the beginning of the next end step (the sacrifice is part of Kiki-Jiki’s creation effect). A creature that becomes a copy of a Kiki-Jiki-created token because of some other copying effect will be a copy of the creature card the token copies (Village Bell-Ringer) and will have haste, but it won’t be sacrificed at the next end step (Ruling [2021-03-19]).
