Call me ignorant. But I still don't quite understand how player process are kept on arcades. I never played one.
Your Aime card is a player identifier, there's really nothing stored on the card itself; using your player ID, the cab connects to the server to grab the player details; this is the same as all Aime/E-Musement/Nesica et. al. systems in Japan. All the card is a login token, there's nothing but your player ID stored on it as far as I know.
However, you need the cards to actually use any of the girls in your fleet. The cards are nothing but a (RFID?) chip with a picture, the game machine just uses them to tick the box that you can use it - no card, no use, even if you've levelled them to max. This does mean that if you're with friends you can swap around powerful cards for each of your turns (as I have done). Also of note is that Normal/Holo etc are all the same ship ID in the system, so stats and equips carry over between them all.
Seems like I've seen that dance before?... Granted, all these idol dance routines done by CG girls kind of blur together, but it seems like this was just a simplified version of a dance from Miku Miku Dance or something...

Yeah, it's in the same style as the Caramelldansen meme, though the original dance was from the OP of Popotan.

Its the bunny ears pose, though people are gonna remember it as Caramelldansen

No, not carameldansen, I'd DEFINITELY remember that. I mean the rest of the dance reminds me of something I've seen where people were using Miku Miku Dance or something similar...
This will give you a good insight about that. Basically you need a SEGA Aime card to play if you want to keep your progress.

So you just need the card and it's going to connect you to a database of your played time. It's simpler than I thought. I thought there at least have to be some other verification or a card/device to store your progress instead of just ID. Basically, it's an internet based method huh?

No internet, no game. Well, you might be able to play in guest mode.
You need the cards to use the girl (and if you put multiple copies of a card in, you get a small boost to stats and drop rate for better version of that card) but that's about it - everything else is online. Your actual deck just lets you use that shipgirl; even if you've maxed one of them, if you don't have the card in, you can't use them at all.
This is exactly the same setup as Lords of Vermillion and other similar card-based arcade games.
