Tim Eldred is a lot of things. He did some Robotech comics back in the day where everything was GRIZZLED and HARDCORE. The men had manly stubble and his version of Yellow Belmont was almost completely unrecognizable. A word like, "Zents" sounds like something from those comics. Honestly, "Zents" is pretty stupid. It's like "Feddy" and "Zeke" from those awful Gundam dubs. Besides, after watching this episode you should know what they're called.
ZENTRAN! ZENTRAN! ZENTRAN! ZENTRAN!
