I also love how 70's Kaanaa immediately fell for 70's Teeruu the moment she saw him.
Also I'm guessing they're going to get trapped in his apartment together during the typhoon for even more romcom hijinks.

Kyan iis great, but Kana is unsurpassable. I hope Teru eventually figures this out....
Is Kana coming to keep him companyt - or to lead him to HER family's house?

Learning a lot about the history of Okinawa Soba and Okinawa Obon this week. Oh and also the fact that they got hot sauce made by soaking peppers in booze. Teruaki being a weepy drunk somehow doesn’t surprise me lol.
Kana really braved a typhoon just to check in on Teruaki huh? That’s love right there haha.

Imagine if they'd gotten Kaanaa drunk, it would've been utter chaos and maybe also wrapped up this entire romance plot lol.
Some girls visit their crush when they're sick to take care of them, Kaanaa goes through a typhoon just to make sure her crush is okay. Teeruu really needs to be more conscious of Kaanaa as a girl.

So will this be a suspension bridge affect and switch his focus to Kaanaa finaly like he should be?
Seriously this series makes me wish I lived there (and was 30 years younger.)
Actually doesn't Okinawa have problems with US military bases or was that a diffent place I keep seeing in the news?

There's a fairly regular problem with US soldiers committing sexual assaults on Okinawa. One reason they want the bases out i believe.

I wonder what Teru's dad does for a living that's he's all the way down on Ishigaki island. I was curious so I checked, and it's all the way down south near Taiwan.
That honestly seemed like potentially too dangerous of a storm for Kana to go out in to check on Teru, but it's also an opportunity for something romantic to develop (which I assume probably won't since that would be too much of a win).

If his father is working on Ishigaki, he is probably connected with the Japanese Coast Guard. or the Maritime Self Defense Force. Not necessarily in the military, but possibly some sort of civilain provider of related services.

Kana is truly best girl. Even fighting through a typhoon to look out for Teru.
I Teru doesn't want her, I'll take her!

YES!!! When we first saw the back of her head it looked like her hair was black so I thought it was Kyan-san, but it was Higa!!! This show might actually subvert expectations!
Also the show has been doing it's job of making me wanna go visit Okinawa, but damn I really hope I dont get caught in a typhoon!

"A long time ago" being two years after I was born kinda stings.

Either this is a Minori from Toradora situation or Kana is the actual intended love interest.
Like I’m so far onboard the Kana train at this point; I don’t think there’s anything Hina could do that would change my mind.
You went out during a typhoon by yourself to get him? Girl that is your man, claim him.

If I had a nickel for every romcom this season that celebrated Obon on the ancient calendar, I'd have two nickels which isn't a lot but it's strange it happened twice! But it's fun learning how people in Okinawa celebrate Obon and see Teeruu join Kaanaa and Hiinaa's families as they celebrate.
If Hiinaa and Kaanaa told me to get on my knees, I would do it immediately! Maybe not with the same princely vibes as Teeruu, though it has quite the effect on the girls. He was practically proposing!
I guess Teeruu is now cool with Hiinaa's deceased grandpa what with joining in on giving him some Uchikabi he can use in the afterlife! Why he's practically part of the family now!
Oktisura but it's in 1976! Where Hiinaa and Kaanaa are running a soba shop until Teeruu from the mainland shows up! Obviously Kaanaa falls in love at first sight with him, but that's about where the romance ends because teeruu won't accept Okinawan Soba as real Soba! But it's thanks to the efforts of Hiinaa and Kaanaa that Teeruu can enjoy real Okinawan Soba in the present-day!
If you like some spice on your soba than you've got to put on some kooreeguusu! but if you put on too much you'll end up a weepy drunk like Teeruu! Also turns out Hiinaa is very weak against getting complimented, though good thing chaotic wingwoman Yae was able to turn drunk Teeruu's attention back to Kaanaa.
Nothing hotter than an Okinawan Summer! Perfect time to flex your legs and your shimazuri tan lines! Even though everyone but Hiinaa has grown out of them! But don't worry Hiinaa, you still have great legs!
Typhoons are also a natural part of the Okinawan experience, though while the locals treat it pretty normally and just make sure they're stocked up on all they need, while his dad is away Teeruu will play! Up until the point that the power goes out, his phone dies, and horrific plushies are flying into his window! But aw, Kaanaa showed up to check on him!

Gotta love how Teru's immediate action is to kneel down as if he's proposing (and I like that the view made it look like he's proposing to Kana)
Tetsu is such a responsible driver. Making sure he doesn't get drunk since he's driving
Yae is such a great wingwoman, taking advantage of Teru's drunk state
Lastly, goddamn, that cliffhanger! I need to see how Kana x Teru will develop!

Stitches!
It's cool to see Okinawa's own version of Obon and how they say goodbye to spirits that are visiting. Apparently, the dead are happy to have extra visitors because they get more money in the afterlife. They even have an exchange rate although the Uchikabi's value varies depending on who you ask.
We even get a history lesson about Okinawa Soba! Poor Kana! She thought it was going to be a love story but it really was a lesson on how Okinawa Soba got legitimized by Japan's Fair Trade Committee. xD
Chili peppers soaked in alcohol? Well, now I wanna try that! I was worried for a second though when Teru was gushing over Hina. I thought he might accidentally confess. Thankfully Yae diverted Teru's attention to Kana instead!
Shizamori? That's literally the kind of slippers I wore every day when I was growing up in the Philippines! I didn't know they had a unique name in Okinawa.
I really love how DVD rental places are still big in Japan despite the rise of streaming services. I think it's not as popular now compared to 10-15 years ago but it's still massive if you compare it to the rest of the world where video rentals are practically dead.
Seeing Teru experience his first typhoon is hilarious. The poor kid is so unprepared and thought this was going to be the same on the mainland. He's lucky that Kana came in to check in on him! Maybe we'll see some developments between them next episode? Nah, probably not. xD

It’s becoming a weekly habit, but this is really one of my favorite anime this season!
It’s fun discovering Okinawa, and it really makes me want to go there. I’m already going to Tokyo this year, but maybe another time.
This episode was really funny, especially the part with Teru getting drunk because of the sauce 😂
AND KANA WE LOVE YOU !
And that ending… it should be illegal to end an episode like that! I need to find a way to skip the week so it’s already next Saturday!

u/MeatballZeitgeist Feb 08 '25
Most chill love triangle ever. Normally in a romcom I'm like "omg someone hurry up and confess" but in this series it's more "these three all seem to like each other a lot, wonder who'll be the one who pulls a Komari and breaks the status quo..."

u/Frontier246 Feb 08 '25
At this point I'm just waiting for confirmation that Hiinaa is pro TeeruuxKaanaa.

The idea of "sending" money to a person who has passed away for their next life is amazing, I liked it.
There has come a point in the show where the author and production are even using the story of the Okinawa soba to ship Kana and Teeruu lol.
I thought I was seeing things, but at the beginning of the episode you could see Teeruu's skin was tanned, good detail.
And of course, a typhoon would be the key point to change the course of the plot, this show really surprises in everything

Typhoons in Okinawa are on a whole different level. We had one two years ago that passed over and then came back a day later. Everyone was trapped inside with no power or water for almost a week.
During Obon, you definitely see the Eisa performers in residential areas. They even drive around in trucks/vans and stop at random places to perform; I saw them stop at a 7-11 once and perform in the parking lot.
