I think it's for the best to, when referring to her, to use "Kou's Mother" to understand what the character's are saying without confusion or alteration.
I can understand getting annoyed when they change Rin calling Kaku uncle, that's fair, but with an unnamed character like Rin's mom, they really didn't have any options.
Also, concerning the kanji usage on "Ten" in Tenshin, Japan is like, the country of puns. It was probably completely intentional to use a dual meaning with Ten.
I agree with you and I know why they did it. Again, all of these are just minor nitpicks from what is a fantastic set. The subs as a whole are solid, grammatically correct, and I didn't notice a single spelling error. I'm so glad they did this but now I worry they aren't going to do Kaku after all.
Sure, the lack of the Kakuranger previews after the final Dai episode don't mean anything, but it is weird that they would have the Dai ones on Zyu but not Kaku on Dai. Maybe they were planning to bring Dai out right from the get go and are going to use the sales of that to determine Kaku. Meh, I'm probably putting way too much thought into this.
