OKITSURA: Fell in Love with an Okinawan Girl, but I Just Wish I Know What She's Saying is a TV anime series from 2025, produced by Millepensee, based on the manga Okinawa de Suki ni Natta Ko ga Hougen Sugite Tsura Sugiru by Egumi Sora.

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)
