New official alternate costumes for SauryFest. Also added the "future" remodel name of one of the newer shipgirls here, combining two potential BURs in two separate threads. Just following Historyanon's lead in this case because of Akizuki's new outfit.

In relation to BUR #50529, I've been second-guessing and actually reversed it from my original edit, but Nosaki was originally named Nankai, but Nosaki is her better known name. KCWiki names her article under her original Nankai name. Should we reverse the part of the BUR to reflect KCWiki or keep it as it is since this is the name I've been seeing on Discord and Reddit and this is the name Wikipedia uses? What's your say, @Historyanon and @ArcieA, since the latter of you typed the body of Nosaki's wiki here (sorry for the ping).

While Wikipedia does use her Nosaki name for the article, it should also be noted that she was originally put into service under a generic supply ship number before assuming the Nankai name. She was only renamed to Nosaki two years later so I'm honestly divided on how to treat her.

Though if the majority does prefer her as Nosaki instead of Nankai, then it works too. It's just that we'd be running against what's in the game where she starts out as Nankai. Then again, we use Tan Yang instead of "Danyang" because it's also what's accepted in the community.

It's also worth keeping in mind that the KC wiki is trying to catch up with everything just like we are. It'll probably be updated several times over the next few days, including putting in the actual images so we can update the images we have to source those instead of Discord links. We could easily drop Nankai/Nosaki from this specific BUR, see how she ends up after the dust settles in a few days, and make a BUR for her then.

Dropped Nosaki from the BUR for the meantime until there's general consensus. The original was implying Nosaki to Nankai (first name), but yeah, we're on the fence on this one, but again I do hear more of Nosaki than Nankai.

Sorry to bother you lads, but why is I-401 (Schoolgirl) (Kancolle) "schoolgirl" while Suzuya (School Girl) (Kancolle) and Kumano (School Girl) (Kancolle) "school girl"? An unrelated BUR's use of "schoolgirl" elsewhere made me check its use in costume tags and notice this abrupt inconsistency in qualifiers. I can only assume the reason why there's a difference is because there's one in the original Japanese, but this hardly seems like the best way to render it.
