Look’s like that Akali playing role of an ancient warrior, which resembles a Noh theatre play. This was not the greatest skin of the Blood Moon, but they were first! The did not receive any new particles, animations or sound effects. Only new Model for Akali and her kamas. Right now players are begging Riots to rework those skins, because right now they are overpriced, compared to the new skins.
