Harukana Receive (2018)

Oozora Haruka, who's just moved to Okinawa, is generally cheerful and optimistic, but there's one thing she feels insecure about: she's taller than most other girls. Her cousin Higa Kanata also has one hang-up: she had to quit her beach volleyball because she was too short. The mismatched cousins find themselves paired up as a beach volleyball team.

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!
