So Ugetsu's thing is he wants to start a revolution to usurp the fat and corrupt bakufu, and try to usher in a less class-based system.

Now of course, granted, we can't exactly take him at his word, and he's made to be sort of outright villainous, but like, when it's set against the "fight for freedom, viva la revolucion" themes of the MSQ, this feels really bizarre. His revolution is derided as something that'll usher in an Age of Blood, even as we're told in the Azim Steppe missions that "there is life in the crimson, and bloody revolution can bring new life"
