By my experience this game mode is literally training your umas even harsher than training SpecOps soldiers.

So this is (I believe) referencing the new training mode, where you can buy items from a shop during training that has effects that range from stat ups to increasing training stamina.

Here, Tannhauser is tired so she wants to rest, but instead she's given some food to increase her training stamina back up. In the third panel, normally when your training stamina is super low you have a super high chance to fail in training, but there's an item you can use that reduces all failure chance to zero (an amulet).

When you think about it, it's really quite shady lmao.

To be precise, the green juice... thing refills 100 体力 (energy?) but reduce mood by 1, while the cupcake increases mood by 1. And because this new mode is very unforgiving on the 体力 consumption, you can expect this combo and the amulet mentioned above will be used a lot.

... that starts to sound like us force-feeding them some questionable drugs to increase their performance

Not really. The items that buff their stats (from meager to something) is a form of a notebook to a book to a (Urara's favorite) Ninja Scroll. While it is not as much as training, it helps in a long run (provided you don't fk up in the training) But I do question the energy drinks though.
