I can see where someone would be upset that a white person is dressing as a Dia de la Muerte skeleton or an obviously Chinese-influenced costume.

i don't know much about dia de la muerte or its skeletons, but i'm not really sure why one would be offended by a white person going as the green-haired character in this? she's in a chinese-looking costume, but it's not like it's remotely accurate to any period in china. and anyone wearing her costume is wearing a costume of her, that specific fictional character, and not a ~geisha girl~ or a ~rice paddy worker~ or whatever stereotypical costume.

I'd say the costume of the "Chinese" character is more offensive (in the tradition of the ~sexy Asian~ costumes the cultural appropriation people keep raging about) than the thought of a non-Asian person cosplaying the (monster) character.

Exactly, it's not about the monster but about the cultural aspects of the costume
