OKITSURA: Fell in Love with an Okinawan Girl, but I Just Wish I Know What She's Saying
沖縄で好きになった子が方言すぎてツラすぎる• Okinawa de Suki ni Natta Ko ga Hougen Sugite Tsura Sugiru
Synopsis
When Teruaki Nakamura transfers to laid-back Okinawa, he falls for the lively Kyan-san—but her dialect is a complete mystery to him. With Higa-san translating, Teru’s misunderstanding-filled island life takes off...and subtle hints suggest Higa-san might want his heart too. On this serene island, love flows as freely as the ocean breeze! (Source: Crunchyroll)
