The casual utility aliases don't make sense when what most fans consider their 'casual' attires have already been given names (Flare's Street, Watame's Street Casual, and Luna's Sundress). Formal for Luna's 4th feels a bit ambiguous ala Dress, since one can argue her default is also formal. Meanwhile, where did you get Princess for Towa's 7th? Searching "常闇トワお姫様" or "常闇トワ姫" just gives me stuff with Towa and Luna, and "常闇トワプリンセス" gives me Towa wearing her Bright uniform singing with Tachibana Hinano.

Noel's 7th having a Nun utility alias makes sense though, given how the tweet talking about it refers to it as a "Sister x Black Knight"-themed costume 「シスター×黒騎士」, and then talked about her sister-style look emerged out from being a Holy Knight (聖騎士), but how she wanted the complete opposite too, a Black Knight look (黒騎士), to create a contrast. So it's technically a "Black Holy Knight" costume, though it's also been referred to as a "Battle Sister" (バトルシスター) costume, at least comunally, unsure in the stream itself, but if it is there too then "Battle Nun" also makes sense. Though in that case, a "Nun" utility alias wouldn't make sense, since searching shirogane_noel_(nun would suggest shirogane_noel_(battle_nun) in the autocomplete.

Loungewear for Marine seems to make sense enough to go with, while Cyber for Towa may as well be Cyberpunk per Ayunda Risu since it seems that's what people have called it (unsure in the stream itself)

So would you be opposed to having Towa's 7th outfit be called "Formal" or something close? Also I believe it's just in tweets Noel gave a name to her outfit, as for Watame, maybe loungewear as well? Or should it be kept as "Casual"? Cuz I'm pretty sure I've seen in merch it was also called casual or something close? Also when I search ""Tokoyami Towa Princess outfit" in English I get lots of results for it (or I could remove the 7th outfit for now)

The only thing Google gives me for "Tokoyami Towa Princess outfit" is a singular YouTube clip, which itself does not feature anything mentioning 'princess' in it. Everything else is just images of her other costumes, like her Jirai Kei and her Cyberpunk costumes (and so I have to assume you're confusing it with her Jirai Kei costume). No one mentions anything about 'princess' in the Reddit thread for its debut. In her post-stream tweet she asked if her costume was cute and "lady-like" (お嬢様っぽい), and searching "常闇トワ嬢様" gives more results than my previous searches indicating that people view this as an 'ojou-sama" or 'lady' Towa, with one tweet going so far as to refer to her as "悪役令嬢", or Villainness (which at least one Reddit comment seems to go along with too). This is why I'm emphasizing actually checking the source, since the last thing we need is miscrediting an outfit because it fits the BUR proposer's personal vibes and without much more consideration.

Did you forget Watame already has a loungewear costume? It's very clearly outdoorwear too, so it's out regardless. But if you think it's been used in merch, try and find your source on that first.

So idk if it was a joke, but Watame called her 8th costume a bit of a "Gal" look, would "Gyaru" work?
