^ First impressions, first impressions are everything to how a character is remembered by the fandom...

Just like people who called Tsukiyama "Trashiyama" because of what he did in his introduction towards Kaneki, people etch the image of a person with something they did in the very beginning and doesn´t let go of it...

And the reason "Pineapple" is called "Pineapple", is because this half-ghoul is nothing like the Takizawa we known and loved before... in the eyes of the fandom, it would be like dishonoring a corpse by refering to him as "Seidou"... and since one of the first things he did that was memetic and memorable in the new series was "plucking pineapples" then the fandom latched on to it and from here on, refers to this "new" character as "Pineapple."

Well, that and ghouls have a tendency to get some pretty awesome aliases by CCG like "Devil Ape", "Black Dober", "Owl", "Centipede", "Gourmet", "Rabbit", "No-Face", "Jason" and etc... because of the one thing that makes them memorable by people. the fandom are just refering to the Ghoulside of Seidou as "Pineapple" like we think of Kaneki and "Centipede" as two different people despite being one and the same.

To make it clearer...

Seidou "Pineapple" Takizawa

Kaneki "Centipede" Ken

We have yet to see "Seidou" in Re so for now we refer to the "ghoul" of him instead... hence "Pineapple"... and another reason... We know that his supposed tha have the Alias "Owl" in-story... but if people referred to him as "Owl" here then you can imagine the confusion that would rise among the fandom since there´s techniqually three different people with the same moniker...

So for convenience as well, we call him "Pineapple" instead to make the distinction between him and Eto and Yoshimura.

Okay?
