@dj The Kamehameha is named after one of their kings, if I recall correctly.

@coded_artist @dj It's actually not. 亀 is the kanji for turtle, read as Kame in this context. ハメ (hame) can mean to break or to destroy something, or can be slang for "having sex." 波 is the kanji for "wave," read as "ha" in this context.

Thus, Kamehameha translates to either "Turtle Destruction Wave" or "Turtle Fucking Wave."

The similarity to some hawaiian is just a coincidence.
