I love Ibuki Taki and I make it everyone's problem.

Fuck Happy Elements. How fucking disrespectful to Akatsuki producers. How disrespectful to everyone in the Enstars fandom. So hey as an Indigenous Japanese American immigrant I don't feel seen by this actually! This is sick!
PLEASE RETWEET!
I fear people are approaching the rumors about the situation with Ibuki far too casually.
Ibuki is Ryukyuan, and if he joins Akatsuki, that is effectively japanizing him which is offensive and insensitive.
It has been noticed that the new Akatsuki MV has a shot where the lighting resembles the Rising Sun flag which was used by Imperial Japan. This is probably not a coincidence. It aligns with the new direction Akatsuki is taking as it enters a metaphorical Meiji Period.
I want Ensemble Stars to stop using Akatsuki to push an imperialist agenda. Akatsuki is about celebrating Japanese culture, not belittling other cultures. This is too cruel. I want them to leave Akatsuki alone and stop using it for a twisted political agenda. Just stop.
According to Engstars:
Content that should be removed: Arashi talking about being trans
Content that shouldn't be removed: Aira calling his Indigenous friend a barbaric caveman
Interesting priorities.
No one likes Rinne and it's kind of hilarious. I made a list of people who like him.
• Hiiro
• Niki
• Kohaku
• HiMERU (conflicted)
• Shinobu
• Chiaki
• Subaru
• Sora(?)
• Kanata (conflicted)
• Hiyori(?) (conflicted)
• Hinata (conflicted)
And that's pretty much it.
One other note which did not immediately occur to me, please no one attack other fans or even Happy Elements about this. It is not confirmed. I just mean to express concern with some uninformed sentiment I am seeing and hopefully raise awareness.
