Nakamura Teruaki, TēRū, who has transferred to a school in Okinawa, falls in love with his classmate Kyan Hina, HīNā.
Contrary to his expectation of a dreamy high school life, however, he cannot understand her Uchinaaguchi, an Okinawan dialect that she speaks just like a local in their seventies.
Higa Kana, KāNā, interprets what HīNā says for TēRū as needed, but actually, KāNā has one-sided feelings for TēRū and wants to get closer to him, although she acts cool in front of him.
For instance, when TēRū calls out 'Higa-san!' on his way to school, every single 'Higa' in the area snaps their head around at once, On this southern island so very different from Tokyo, a slightly strange, cross-cultural romance blossoms!
The opening theme song “Dai Dai Daisuki” performed by the Okinawa-band HY from Uruma City (the setting for the anime), features an upbeat melody played on the Sanshin. It blends Okinawa’s traditional instrument with a rock’n’-roll energy to create a cute, but slightly bittersweet, atmosphere.
It is one of the hottest coming-of-age anime songs.
