Hold it right there, big kahuna.
You've reached the back-end of my translation posts. As cool as that might be, the view from here is pretty unhelpful for navigating translations. To reach the main citrinesea masterlist, click here or click on the Keito below.
Thank you for your understanding.
AKATSUKI is a unit embodied by 和 (wa, lit. harmony, but also a self-designator for Japan). The word 和風 (wafu, Japanese style) comes from 和. During the Meiji Restoration, 和 was central to Japan’s efforts to unify and assimilate new territories under a shared cultural identity. On top of his membership, Ibuki's active pursuit of 本当の和風 (true Japanese-style) being the reason he pursues AKATSUKI is inappropriate, bearing this in mind.
Additionally, the Ryukyu Disposition was driven by military interests, particularly securing Japan's southern borders from other nations. In Okinawan schools, national pride was linked to serving Japan’s military goals. This had devastating consequences, particularly during the Battle of Okinawa in World War II. This in mind, having Ibuki join the self-proclaimed "war unit" is also inappropriate.

It's Ibuki's turn to have a personal outfit made at last. In order to help the Producer get to know him more, the two of them head to Okinawa.
