The scene where Takeru shows up in TDA is during the epilogue of TDA02. This is the same Takeru that we're familiar with since the first day of Unlimited. As for the original Takeru of the war-torn world, we do not know his rank at all in the military.

Spoiler for The Day After 02:

UN was dissolved. It was not revealed how Takeru ended up with the imperial royal guards, and not the imperial army. Age decided to save the juicy part for the next episode. However, it's very likely due to his connection with Yuuko and being nurtured by her. Seijuro's older brother knew about it, and when he made such statement, the scene changed to Takeru immediately. Oh, and Yuuhi is not the empress, she's the Shogun.

Not sure which Unlimited ending this one follows, but TDA branch could be the continuation of Yuuko end or Meiya's normal end. As for the 00R... Shogun made an implication that it's no longer within her reach.

"Please watch over me, Takeru... I will never give up..."

Was her last line for TDA02, and then at the epiloge, Takeru shows up in his black konoe uniform.He should be called Kurogane Takeru from here on imo. lol.
