So it was a misunderstanding after all haha. We were all fooled, Hina included lmao.

Kana best girl! I loved her design, her personality, Ai Fairouz voicing her... everything! And I was so freaking happy when Teru saw her in his vision... let's go!!! xD

That said, I finish the series in love with Hina's way of speaking. It has to be one of my favorite Akari Kitou performances. Simply adorable to listen to her as Hina... “Ai Teru” is still stuck in my head xD.

Hina and Kana's friendship was great to watch right up to the end <3. And along with the sanshin part, this was such a great season finale.

Man, I loved this show so much, I'm sad it's over... I'm going to miss it. I hope it's not one of those shows forgotten with only one season.

Ah well its over, What a shame, I am glad I watched this while it was airing instead of in one or two sittings, It was really nice tuning into watch it every Sunday, The memories of Okinawa are nice now and this has become one of my favorite romance anime I have ever watched and I'm glad I've watched it. I also really thought that Teru Had confessed to Kyan-san in the last episode but nope, He was just handing things out and we ended up with no romance in a romance anime. A shame I really wanted to see Higa and Teru together they seemed like they were a good match for each other, Here's hoping to a season 2!

...I really wanna call this author a slur. I really thought we'd have progression after it was shown that he seemingly confessed, only for it to be yet another bait and a new level of bait at that. I hope a meteor levels the Okinawa this asshole loves so much.

The only thing I got out of the whole misunderstanding is that we got a glimpse of Hina's attitude toward romance. She's not totally ignorant to the concept, but it was obvious she solidly put Teru in the Friendzone. Kana might have got a glimmer, but Teru probably had gas... :' )

7/10, mainly for the characters and the lore.

This anime is deeji adorable to say the least. A great finale and hopefully given the supposed popularity back home, we will soon get another season. Just can't get enough of Hiinaa's uchinaaguchi and her friendship with Kaanaa, Teeruu's constant misunderstanding of Okinawa culture, Agena's teasing of Kaanaa, and Suzu's pranks on Teeruu.

See you all in season 2, iyasasa!!

I'm so sad this show has come to an end, it turned out to be super educational and the fact that I will be going to Okinawa myself later this year turned out to be a surprising welcome. As for the romance, I can't say that was particularly what attracted me to the show but I'm glad Higa-san got some much needed attention from Teru in that sense this episode.

I knew they'd find a way to calm down last week's cliffhanger and for it to be resolved in that manner was quite hilarious indeed. At least we know Hiinaa-chan's stance on the matter though. Hiinaa-chan and Higa-san's relationship is adorable as ever but a little too close, lol. Love the girls!

I don't know why this doesn't seem to be a standout for many from this season but it's definitely up there for me. Solid 8/10 from here! Going to miss the genki Op and seiyuu utaite EDs too, they were such great company.

I am going to miss this show, and yes the ending was lousy because the best girl (Kana) did not get her boy, but I think it was probably the easiest way to end the series without leaving one of the girls unhappy. I hope they make a 2nd series because it was fun.
May the Uguu be with you.

It was interesting to learn about Okinawa, a place that I only know about because it’s the destination for a ton of anime summer vacation arcs. But I have a much better understanding of it now. Maybe someday I’ll go there.

That being said, the rest of the show (the actual rom-com part of the show) was pretty weak, even by rom-com standards. He “fell in love with an Okinawan girl”, but there was little to no actual romance. I’m certainly on the Kana ship just like everyone else, it’s just too bad that there was so little romantic development, other than Kana crushing on him.

The end was, well, it was not much of an ending.

So 5/10. I can’t give more.

Shock confession huh. Good thing that Teru doesn't know the story about the weave though. The insight into Okinawan music was pretty curious. An excellent end to the series and loved the final scenes as well.

I think that this kind of open ending regarding the romance fits the show, especially with the backstory of the Yuta not telling which one of them is going to be tied to a stranger ahaha. Anyway I think the anime was interesting mainly because as a slice of life it has a very original main subject that makes it stand out compared to most other slice of life/romance anime, though my issue is that I'm sure they're very exaggerating the culture aspect, I went to Okinawa recently and it wasn't like that at all even though I went to most of the places they talked about in the anime, I think they're just pushing a lot of cliché to lure tourist that will watch the anime to visit the region.

Yep, this was another classic bait that I had to fall for once again! XD

The upside was that we got to see an embarrassed and blushing Hina which is always an irresistibly cute moment to see. It was also intriguing to know more about the Kankara Sanshin which was enjoyable the same way as it was educational and melancholic since it helped to bring more happiness after the war.

Overall, this series was a nice surprise for me. The characters were fun and the facts about life in Okinawa was great to learn about. I will have to check the manga out at some point in the future!

There have been positive signs indicating that Teru is starting to see Kana as a love interest. That's significant progress boys!

They sure like to tease a lot, of course they won't give a confession so easily. It looked like that Hina will become conscious of Teruaki but that didn't happen, later it looked like Teruaki will become conscious of Kana, yap that didn't happen.

At this point they're just play with our emotions. But still it was a fun watch and the purple hired girl will only make her appearance in next season it seem, if we ever got one.

I didn't even realized it's already the last episode.
It was just a misunderstanding! Of course it was!

Wholesome finale with the group. Can't believe our MCs even have that kind of "connection" of fate... may it be as lovers or friends.
Teeru finally took notice of Kaana.. Kaana bros I think we can win this fight.

This anime really hit me with a lot of nostalgia feels, so many stuffs that were quite similar to where I grew up.
And I really enjoyed all the okinawan lessons!

That's a pretty deep cut reference, not even all Indonesians would get that. Because the pelog scale is only used in Java and Bali traditional music.

What about the purple-haired girl though?! They focused on her so hard for the minute she was there last episode that I thought she'd have some part in this finale. This better get a second season--I need answers and I need more Kaanaa.

ofc the plot twist was gonna be a misunderstanding ahahahhaah it would've been wild if this show went full on in the romance aspect considering the goal of this show wasn't really about that ngl
I am genuinely upset this is over now, not my no.1 anime of this season but I think either 2nd or 3rd place

this anime was overall heartwarming and a very good time to be had learning more about Okinawa, gonna miss these silly goobers!

It's funny that even though Kyan was supposed to be the best girl on the show, fans liked Hina ten times more.

@MomoSinX The manga remains essentially the same, just expanding the cast.
@RobertBobert Aw, I fear then the manga will be either open ended or just "first girl" wins.

@MomoSinX Kyan was the first girl, but I highly doubt that she will win. Also, if you pay attention, it is Kyan who speaks about eternal friendship and platonic bond in this segment.

Such cute way to the end the series. Was so nice to see Teru finally notice Kana and the destined to be friends thing worked perfect for a series like this. I was very happy with this finale. I am going to miss Kana. Didn't think another best girl could sniff Maomao, but I have them as my 1A and 1B for the season. I also loved learning some of the differences between Okinawa and Mainland Japan. It may have been an advert for Okinawa tourism, but I thought it was a very cute, entertaining, and educational one.

All season long I thought this show was underrated, but now that it is above a 7, it feels about right. It gets a 7.68 from me. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

...and like every other occasion this season, there was a fake out in the first 5 minutes. The only novel thing about it this time was it was Hina, not Kana in the sling.

Rest of the episode I think focused on trying to emphasis that this was always about the friendship between Kana and Hina, which I guess is good, and their interpretation at the end sort of telling me that no matter who MC picks, they will be friends at the of the day.

Kinda wished Kana would've taken this as a motivation to confess, but if Hina never explained it to her...then I guess not.

god dammit... that was anti climatic.

Was a fun show, the Okinawa facts took over the whole romance aspect of the show honestly. It didn't feel like there was much romance in this at all really. Bit disappointed with how the first season went. Not sure if I will watch the second season if there is one cause I'd probably have to rewatch to remember everything that's happened and I just won't be able to rewatch this show honestly.

It had its moments and wasn't all bad but it just didn't feel like a romance anime really. 5/10

It was a sweet finale in the end ig, with granny and all lol, but that still doesn't save the overall show for me. Idk, something about the way it's formatted that I just really can't get invested. The art style also doesn't help.

And the romance.. god the romance in this show is either nonexistent half the time, or when it is, it's some of the worst I've seen. And the main girl is just plain. Higa-san carried me to slog through the show every week. Still though, this was still 10x better than the Hokkaido one, 100%

But at least with the Hokkaido one, there was some things to make me want to go visit it one day, this show did the complete OPPOSITE, as I do NOT want to ever step foot in Okinawa if it is THIS complicated to understand.

I'll can't agreed more to that..

Damn, what a fake-out. They sure left us on a cliffhanger in the last episode, thankfully it was all a misunderstanding. Still, it was cute seeing Hina all flustered over the misunderstood confession. Teru needs to be careful and avoid other misunderstandings. I loved seeing Teru come to realize that he has possible feelings for Kana after they visited the yuta to try and check his “lost” mabui. Poor guy was even more spaced out after that small event and he can’t seem to get Kana out of his mind. The cutest part of the episode was the flashback to Hina and Kana’s first visit to the Obasan’s house where she revealed that one of them had a very strong “en” (connection) that was far away. Hina’s answer to them not knowing which one had the connection was perfect. Hina said it didn't matter which one it was “because if they're connected to you, then they’re connected to me! ‘Cause we’re friends forever!” Now that’s true friendship, and I hope it stands the test of time. I’m glad they closed the season on a high note and we still don't know who the lucky girl will be and that’s good. Let’s hope this gets a second season because this was a pleasant surprise anime for me this season. Here’s hoping for the best! 👍🏻👍🏻

iiee dakarasa! this last episode does some recap and i think it blends well but sure left us some cliffhanger plot At the end.

One possibility was that it was a misunderstanding and... In the end, that's what it was.
Umh... I don't know if that calms me down or, on the contrary, it ends up angering me. Lol
I found the story of the instrument made from trinkets touching...
Those two visits (the unexpected one and the one from the past) to the shaman left me with some questions.
Maybe some characters' romantic interests have changed slightly?
I think a second season would be nice for more fun, answers and resolutions!
Cool, hilarious and entertaining anime. I liked it!

Interesting about the yuta in Okinawa . I dont even mind the confession turned out to be an accurate misunderstanding and it almost seemed like Teru realized he might have a better relationship with Kana than Hina, maybe.


This show was pretty interesting and cute.
