Dumb nitpick, the names in Zi-O are bad
So I was thinking about Tsukuyomi and it's sort of weird how we don't know if that's her first or last name.
It's fine for Woz, Uhr, Ora, and Schwartz to have cartoony one names, since they're basically villains. But why Tsukuyomi, she's a main character, right? And she comes from the same era as Geiz, who does have a family name.
But Geiz isn't much better either. He's got a last name, but he uses his first name for his superhero name, like a kid who wears an Optimus Prime shirt with a "I'm Optimus Prime" on it for Halloween and calling that a costume.
It's weird that they had a whole half episode explaining the names, but they don't touch on Tsukuyomi's family name. Maybe they're keeping it secret because Tsukuyomi is like Sougo's daughter or something. So maybe it's a plot spoiler, maybe it's poorly thought out. Who can say?
Hey, I said it was a dumb nitpick in the title, didn't I?

Re: Dumb nitpick, the names in Zi-O are bad
I assume she's special in some way. Or maybe she's just secretive and doesn't want to reveal it?
I'm actually kind of hoping for an episode where she or Geiz encounter their grandparents or something.

Crazy Theory Time
Spoiler
Tsukuyomi is a timejacker.
Evidence
1. The single name thing.
2. During the intro there's a strange segment where she is walking down the stairs and all the timejackers are around her then dissapear. This could signify she used to be one of them however she left them or was separated from them.
3. She also wants to make her own Zi-O just like the timejackers.
Extra spicy theory cherry on top.
- Not only is she a timejacker, she is the reason Oma Zi-O is there.

Back to Den-O, Hana from the beginning didn't have any family-name, just Hana or Kohana later. It happened until the truth revealed in last couple eps, so we know who is she.

Re: Dumb nitpick, the names in Zi-O are bad
I don't like how Geiz has the same name for his first name and rider name. I thought it was a codename at first but apparently it isn't? It's really strange.

Maybe she's Oma Zi-O's daughter who goes back in time to prevent Oma's appearance, but inadvertently caused his creation.

Re: Dumb nitpick, the names in Zi-O are bad
