Aww, Nemu looks so cute holding the pot-drum-thingy and the ukulele. :3 (PS. What is the pot-drum-thingy?)
Does she have a dango shirt on?
Cute!
Third Panel, FTW!
it continues to amaze me how you two can pull these jokes seeming out your hat!!
I LOVE IT! <3 !
Ash, the pot-drum-thingy is called an ipu or a gourd, which is used in traditional hula. I remember in fourth grade when one of the other classes had to learn how to play the ipu! =D
IPU it's an ipu...
Indeed, it's called an "ipu"! An "imu", for clarification, is the underground pit they use to cook pigs for the luau. :D
For more info about hula, I have an accompanying post.
Also, by request, I have some accompanying avatars for everyone to grab!
That is just so awesome! Nemu is so cute playing the ipu and ukulele! LOL! The olny time I played an ipu was in Hawaiian class for a program!
Wow, I've been living in Hawaii for all 13 years, and I never knew what that gourd thing was called. .-., XDD
Ah, I also enjoy your comic. It's just so adorable! My day is instantly brightened.
Ugh. Is it sad that I was born and raised in Hawaii, but no little to **** about some of this stuff? xD /shame
Awesomesauce! I like the last panel where Nemu and Kana are hula hooping! I wonder what will happen next...
P.S. Where is the next comic? I understand if there is a delay ;0
For those of you that dont know the difference between these types of hula read here.
Hula Kahiko: Ancient Hawaiian dance preformed by Hawaiians back den.
Hula 'auana: Modern hula you see today in Hawaii.
Hula Hoop: Just one hula hoop you see everyday for play.
Nemu looks SOOOO adorable with the ipu and all decked out!
Nemu would be the cuuuuutest kuuipo ever! Wow I just got this great mental image: Nemu as the kuuipo for a halau having the words "grilled cheese" in it. The halau would so win the Merrie Monarch! >_~
