Seriously. Go to Google, (ADD Moment: You can actually play Pac-Man on there right now, in honor of Pac-Man's 30th birthday. Super Smash Bros. is better, but...) and type in "Kamehameha." After one school website, and 2 wikipedia articles on the school and the Kings, you see Youtube entries outlining "real Kamehameha," and "Kamehameha After Effect Tutorial," and the Dragon Ball Z Wiki.
It got me to thinking. How did a Japanese guy get the name "Kamehameha" for a signature attack for his main anime character, that would be screamed by hyperactive little kids for decades to come? I mean, did he take a trip to Hawaii and see the name and say to himself "Ah, Ka-me-ha-me-ha... Sugoiiiii....."
Or was it a by-product of random syllables put together? Or maybe a "weird names" google search? I may never know..... O.o

About Me
- TallguyCPO
- Me in a nutshell: Governmentally Opinionated. Ecclesiastically Inculcated. Domestically Educated. Racially August, Relatively Speaking. Call me indoctrinated, because I'll agree, doctrine is a part of ideology. Call me close-minded, I'll agree, because the truth is all that is important. Call me weird, I'll agree, because... well... I'm weird. Boy, that's a big nutshell.
