Premieres in January 2025. Check out the ANN article for additional information. Synopsis from AniList:
I, Teruaki Nakamura, transferred to a school in Okinawa and developed a crush on a girl named Kiyan-san, but I don’t understand her dialect. Higa-san is always helping me by translating the dialect. A slightly different cultural love starts on the southern island.
What is this title
Sounds like 90+% of the titles. Just an explanation of the plot.
I think it’s the trend in Japan. I personally like it. You know, instead of “Yhe Okinawan Challenge” or something cryptic like that.
The long title trend is originally due to how sites like syosetu work, where aspiring authors will write web novels that are then picked up by publishers and become light novels, which then become manga and anime. I wrote more in depth about it here already.
As far as I can tell, this series started as a manga though. So, the long title is not specifically due to how search works on syosetu, but just going along with the flow of others in the field.
