Episode5 Story
It has been four months since Teru began his life in Okinawa. As the first semester draws to a close, an unexpected sneeze from Teru sparks a conversation with Kiyan-san, who shares some Okinawan trivia: “There are magical creatures called Majimun in Okinawa, and we have plenty of talismans to ward them off.”

Synopsis: Okitsura
The story begins with Teru Nakamura, a high school student who transfers from Tokyo to Okinawa. Teru develops a crush on his classmate Hina Kyan, but he struggles to understand her as she speaks in a deep Okinawan dialect, known as "Uchinaaguchi." To bridge the gap, Hina’s friend Kana Higa, who speaks a more modern version of the dialect, steps in as a translator. However, Kana secretly harbors feelings for Teru herself, leading to a love triangle.
