Synopsis

I, Teruaki Nakamura, transferred to Okinawa and fell in love with a girl… but I can't understand her dialect. Thankfully, Higa-san is always helping me out with translations.

A cross-cultural romance that's a wee-bit different begins on the southern island!

This kind of feels like someone from Okinawa watched "Hokkaido Girls are Super Adorable" and decided they wanted to do a similar series based on Okinawa.

The production value seems pretty high though. At least it seems that the main premise won't be the only plot of the show though. I like Kana more than the titular girl though. I think Fairouz Ai might have something to do with that though. She seems to be really getting a lot of roles recently

It's comedy where all the jokes need to be explained. Even to Japanese people. Nothing here really appeals to me.

The girl *can* speak standard Japanese -- she's done it several times unless the producers were getting bored and decided to record in standard Tokyo-ben -- she just seems to choose not to. When she's going full Okinawa I can understand about 10-15% of what she says.

I like this kind of edutainment though.

The girls are cute, but having some factoid about Okinawa shoved in my face every thirty seconds was pretty annoying. I doubt I'll make it through a full season of this.

A lot of shows like this feel like glorified tourist promotions.
