There's a whole new world (pun intended) of source material out there, and considering how little OUAT Mulan bears of Disney Mulan, I think they might very well bypass Disney by calling her Hua Mulan instead of Fa Mulan (her surname was not disclosed on the show), say it's a totally different thing than the Disney Princess and call it a day. OUAT is still affiliated with Disney. Disney would have stepped in before they had announced Mulan's sexuality. I'm betting on they didn't. or maybe they did and that's the reason why Mulan was sidelined in the latest episode. Or maybe they didn't and the writers want to do something else. Two can play at the speculative game. I'm betting 75-25 on the writers' choice rather than Disney involvement.
