Lead character is half haole/half Asian with a Hawaiian last name? How’s that?

silva0072 Kealoha is a Hawaiian name...how clueless.

If they’re calling her Kealoha, she should be a Hawaiian actress.

Doogie Howzit, brah?

the woman in that photo looks about 26.

Need to make sure the 16 yo really looks like a 16 yo. Original was good because Doogie really looked like a kid.

Her name’s still Doogie?
