Etymology
The character for "aka" (紅) means crimson or scarlet, while the character "tsuki" (月) stands for the moon. Originally, Keito chose the name to showcase their role in The War: the moonlight that reflects the brilliant light that is Eichi. However, as AKATSUKI's role changed, its meaning became different as well. Currently, AKATSUKI uses the meaning of its homonym "akatsuki" (暁), meaning dawn or daybreak. For the unit, this name symbolises the dawn of a new beginning.[1]
