A preview of issue one of the Zero-One comic. Warning: Minor spoilers
Gotta say, I was not expecting Ragnarok to be able to use the Flaming Tiger Key.

Gotta say, I was not expecting Ragnarok to be able to use the Flaming Tiger Key. I'm actually surprised they used "Henshin" and kept her name as "Izu" when it seems like they were really pushing the official localization name as "Is." Kind of wondering if there's a reason for that, other than appealing to people who watched it subbed back when it was airing. Last edited by Frontier; 10-06-2022 at 12:44 PM.. |

Honestly, keeping it as "Izu" makes sense because "Is" is a lot harder to parse as a name. Keeping "Henshin" is just plain weebery, mind.

Was she called 'Is' in Shout's official 01 subs?

While I understand the council (Toei/localization) has made a decision, given it's a dumb one I've elected to ignore it.
Like seriously though, this is the one time I will always push back against the official spelling. Because Izu looks better than Is. |

I like Izu better too, though it is funny that the two official pieces of media out for this series in the west are in conflict about localised names...

I actually liked "Is," especially once we got into the theme naming of her family of Humagear's, and I don't think it's pronounced that differently, but I know a lot of people prefer Izu.

There's also the fact that comics use all caps, so there's no easy way to distinguish the name "IS" from the word "IS". Using "Izu" makes things a lot easier to read.

Yeah Izu doesn't seem to have made the transition to comic book very well. She's a bit too emotive for a Humagear and her words don't match up with her show style. Aruto doesn't either, but that's an easier thing to accept.
