Also, is it just me, or does Yuuna doing the hula look oddly like one of
Kamichu's characters trying to hula? 0_o?

(Which brings up the point that taking the series out of Hawaii, and
keeping it inside the Empire, means that there's no longer any
kissup-correct obligation to portray Hawaiian life and culture
accurately, eg. no Nani job-searching or Ice-Cream-Guy mainlande --
And Yuuna's hula can be portrayed as Just Something Silly She Thinks
She's Doing, like Sana's rapping.)
