Love comes in many forms and crossing cultural boundaries can make that difficult. It’s even harder when that person has a deep accent you’re not familiar with.
The upcoming Okinawa de Suki ni Natta Ko ga Hogen Sugite Tsura Sugiru TV anime, based on the manga of the same name by Egumi Sora, released the first full trailer for the cross-cultural romance series, showcasing the voices with subtitles as necessary for the Okinawan dialect!

Okinawa de Suki ni Natta Ko ga Hougen Sugite Tsura Sugiru is directed by Shingo Tanabe (I Got a Cheat Skill in Another World) under the supervision of Shin Itagaki at studio Millepensee, with the pair also responsible for series composition. Tomohiro Yoshida provides the character designs, while Tomohisa Ishikawa, Yoshimi Katayama and Ayana Kinjo are in charge of the music.
The series premieres in January 2025 in Japan, with the series’ synopsis as such:
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!
