    Most of this information matches that in the Anime V text.
    No need for inconsistencies!

    All the books out there say this too.  Was this actually part of the
    Imperial family, or did they decide to adopt it from Tenchi and Youshou?

    According to fact #38, it's still Masaki.  There's no mention
    however whether this was also his "maiden" name.

    And the tree above may not be valid for the TV series as well...
