The downside of having anchor hair clip-ons (or would they be more hair barrettes?).

That is some seriously whiplash to be sure.

That, or its a joke on that "Akitsushima style dodging" aka that insane maneuever they did in battleship, but with a near full turn.

Anchors aweigh!

I like Akitsushima, but whoever designed her clothes just didn't know when to stop. She's just got too many weird things hanging off the ends and holes and frills...
