Journey of Water
Moana first met Heihei when she was a toddler and shared a close relationship with him while growing up on Motunui. Though the villagers were ticked off by Heihei’s stupidity and wanted to eat him, Moana believed there was more to Heihei and convinced her people to keep him around. Though she was dumbfounded with Heihei’s unintelligence like the villagers of Motunui, Moana was patient with the chicken and never got angry with him. Moana blows her conch shell from atop Motufetu, and soon, her call is answered as other rafts begin to arrive from various directions. Maui compliments Moana’s tattoos by saying “my tattoos are still cooler than yours”. As they blow their conch shells in reply, it allows Moana to meet with the other islanders reconnected by Motufetu’s return.

Her hair also appears to be a little bit longer and some of it is in front of her face now.

The film was directed by John Musker and Ron Clements from a screenplay by Jared Bush and stars Dwayne Johnson and Auliʻi Cravalho in her film debut. It features songs written by Lin-Manuel Miranda, Opetaia Foaʻi, and Mark Mancina, and an original score also composed by Mancina. The film is set in ancient Polynesia and tells the story of Moana, the strong-willed daughter of a chief of a coastal village, who is chosen by the ocean itself to reunite a mystical relic with the goddess Te Fiti. When a blight strikes her island, Moana sets sail in search of Maui, a legendary demigod, in hopes of returning the relic to Te Fiti and saving her people. Moana and her parents rush to the healers, where Tala lies on her deathbed. She encourages Moana to find Maui and restore the heart with her last ounce of strength.
Following on three years after the first movie we find Moana (Cravalho) exploring nearby islands from her home of Motunui. In a vision, she hears her ancestors speaking to her, calling her to a new quest. She must find a way to rediscover the lost island of Motu Fetu in order to defeat the storm god Nalo and protect her people from extinction. So Moana, brave as ever, builds a crew and heads out into the open ocean to begin her next adventure, and it’s safe to say she encounters a bump or two along the way.
Moana looking fondly to the ocean after being gifted the seashell from her childhood. After Ralph resolves his insecurities, causing the viral clones to vanish, he is in danger of falling to his doom. Moana and the other girls see he’s in trouble and move to help him, with Moana and Ariel working together to create a tower of water that Elsa can freeze to serve as a slide to save Ralph. After he is saved, he is allowed a chance to meet and befriend the girls, with Elsa assuring him that “any friend of Vanellope is a friend of ours”, with Moana adding on “You’re Welcome”. As they climb a mountain to reach the entrance to the underworld, Maui wonders why the ocean chose Moana to save the world, to which she doesn’t seem to know it herself. Despite her sudden sense of doubt, Moana follows Maui into Lalotai and ends up finding the hook.
Moana heard Tala explain because Maui stole the Heart of Te Fiti, monsters roamed the seas and Te Kā’s curse destroyed islands and made sea voyage dangerous. Moana then saw Tala reveal that Te Kā’s curse has now reached Motunui and was shocked to hear Tala also reveal she had been chosen by the Ocean to save all of Polynesia from Te Kā’s curse as she was given the Heart of Te Fiti. As the next chieftain of her village, she is at odds with her responsibility to her people and her desire to explore the sea. As a child, she was chosen by the Ocean to return the Heart of Te Fiti, and when her island starts being overcome by darkness, she undertakes this quest to save the lives of her people, learning about herself and her heritage along the way.
