究極の姉萌え！ユミナお姉ちゃん！
All roads lead to Moé.（全ての道は萌えに通ず。） あぁぁ、ユミナお姉ちゃん！あぁ、なんたる素晴らしさ！なんて清楚で美しく、おしとやかで、慎ましく、優しく、おくゆかしく、柔和で、簡素で、清貧で、ことば優しく、笑顔で、慈愛に満ちあふれている聖女様なんでしょう！まさに和顔愛語を体現してる聖女さま〜！そんな聖道の聖女様がバザールにおいて邪道な暴走族の「よろしく」Tシャツをピックアップしてるのです。なんというセンス！そんなユーモアたっぷりのユミナたん（笑）！今では死語となった日本語表記、その表音文字たる漢字は「イデア文字」となってるそうです。それがユミナお姉ちゃんの宗教の神聖文字なのでしょう。ちょうど、カトリックがラテン語を使い、仏教徒がサンスクリット語を使うように。それで、「夜露死苦（よろしく）」だなんて、よくそんなイデア文字が残ったものです。神聖文字なのに。
