Subsequently, the term Senso was likely distinguished from that of enthronement and coronation, and for this reason Emperor Chukyo, who had become the emperor by Senso without an enthronement ceremony or coronation, was called Hantei (halfway emperor) and was not bestowed no daijo-tenno-go (name of the retired emperor) after his retirement nor any shigo (posthumous name) after his demise (his shigo was given 636 years after his death.)
これ以後、践祚と即位の区別がなされるようになったと思われる（このため、践祚のみで即位式が行われなかった仲恭天皇は、「半帝」と呼ばれて太上天皇号も崩御後の諡号も贈られる事も無かった（「仲恭」の諡号が贈られたのは実に崩御から636年後の事であった））。
