The question of why Aruto not only wasn't cared for by his grandfather after his died is one of MANY questions I have regarding that family.

-What happened to Aruto's mother?

-Why does Grampa Hiden make a robot dad, but not a robot mom?

-What happens after Headphones Dad is blown up? Does Aruto just live in an orphanage for the next decade?

Aruto and his grandad never feel like they had some being falling out, but that old man avoided Aruto like he was radioactive. A lot of questions left to answer!

I KNEW I KNEW HIM FROM SOMEWHERE. Thank you!

And onto the production info. Which is somehow more detailed on the actual plot that the movie itself is.

I'm glad you had a good time with it!

It's also a thing in Geiz Majesty and Decade vs Zi-O, so it's neat to see it be that consistent after her form's really horrible debut in the series itself

I'm glad to see her at least on Woz'z level, as far as usefulness in fights. That's the bare minimum!

That said, my favorite scene for her in this movie was trying to wrangle Geiz in 2007, when he's just doing combat rolls in front of every robot he sees. Her being some perennially-overworked Time Mom is intensely nostalgic for me.

That's good to hear! All Dads Are Dead needs to stay in Heisei!

I love energy cloth accessories, so if you give me an energy cape, scarf, etc? I will eat it up!

It's a very good suit! My second-favorite series-wide, maybe, after ZeroZero-One. All the Ichigou touches are great, and it even references the bulk Dad Ichigou suit from the Ghost movie!

Yeah, there's a real narrative shrug here, with Woz going I Guess They're Combining Again. I don't care, it's just a movie, and we need them to team-up. But still! Not a ton of effort on justifying the return of a lot of the elements Sougo sacrificed so much to eliminate.
