This was a quick watch to bridge the gap between season 1 and the upcoming season 2. I think Love in Okinawa highlights how young Miki Honoka is. A character at some point says something about thinking she was a junior high student and I think that sums it up. Miki Honoka is not a mature teen and I have hard time believing that she is supposed to be married and in the area of 20. Furukawa Yuki was still as emotionless as he was in season 1. The real issue for him is showing any emotion when it calls for it. I enjoyed the incognito parents and brother for the bit they were in it. There was also a guest appearance by the cast of the Taiwanese drama, Fabulous Boys. I didn't mind it but it was just so random. I wish that this special had just been part of the regular series. As a stand-alone, the irritating parts stood out more. It highlighted how thoughtless Naoki is and how wimpy Kotoko is. Overall, though, it was on par with the first season and I like it about the same.
