Enstarries are about the claim that the Kengeki no Mai album covers and the Opera outfits are also accidental even though it's so blatantly inspired by the imperial Japanese uniform during WW2 that it never got added to the CN and KR servers because of how fans were rightfully mad at the game glorifying a period of time where Easian and Seasian countries were brutally colonised by Japan, women suffered sexual abuse as comfort women to the soldiers and Unit 731 is one of the worst war crimes in history.
People are not 'too woke' and performative or looking to get mad at things, they're rightfully mad at how the uniform looks like Nazi uniform. Are you going to tell Jewish people that they're just reaching? Or what about the Easian and Seasians who suffered from Japan colonizing them during WW2? The pin on their shoulder is the sowilo rune which inspired the SS bolt so it appears like the company wanted to add Nazi dog whistles but also wanted to claim plausible deniability.
If the uniform is actually just inspired by the current imperial guard uniform, it's still weird to put Ibuki, who is Ryukyuan, in military attire and every military essentially promotes imperialism. Also the theme is related to the caterpillar from Alice in Wonderland so why exactly are they in military attire. Yes Alkaloid also had soldier attire however it was related to the card soldiers in the soldoer and is not really inspired by any uniform like Akatsuki's one.
By the way, it's the Japanese Akatsuki fans who do not like Ibuki and are insulting him because they want him out the unit. Not a single English speaking fan is doing this and are pointing out how canon Ibuki is being used as a mouthpiece to push the need to assimilate Ryukyuans into Yamato Japanese society. Stop blaming enstarries on twitter for things that they're not doing and yes enstarries are allowed to 'act ungrateful' and demand for change instead of expecting to accept this imperialist garbage without complaining.
