Something I do enjoy about this scene though is the atmosphere.
We went from the color vibrant world of Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear to Yuna’s previous life on Earth. Her apartment is large, cold, and empty. It’s colored like a hospital room. Hell, even her clothing looks like a hospital gown!
There’s literally no music for this part, which just adds to the oppressive loneliness of the scene. And through a phone call with her grandfather we see a very brief glimpse on how she got to spend all her time in this lifeless room. Though considering how many people don’t fully get what’s going on here, I see a lot of misunderstandings.
Basically to sum it up, Yuna’s grandfather is the owner of a conglomerate, a very wealthy self-made man. He had three sons, Yuna’s dad being the third.
Yuna’s parents are like, the black sheep of the family. They go on lavish vacations for months or even years on grandpa’s dime and never actually be home. When Yuna herself came into money, they started begging her for vacation change.
Her uncles and cousins have all but disowned her, writing her off as the daughter of her parents. Her grandfather saw Yuna for who she was, but she always refused his help out of stubborness, and the fact he wanted her to join the family business.
Because of this, Yuna has always been alone, practically raising herself from a very young age. Because of this, she’s gained a strong sense of individualism, only ever having faith in her own abilities as they were solely the reason she’s survived this far.
Eventually sick of her parents begging for money, she moved into a penthouse apartment on money she made on the stock market and didn’t tell her parents where she was going to be living. Her grandfather had to become her co-signer because she was underage.
