Niʻihau (Hawaiian: [ˈniiˈhɐw]), anglicized as Niihau (/ ˈ n iː (i) h aʊ / NEE-(ee-)how), is the seventh largest island in Hawaii and the westernmost of the main islands. It is 17.5 miles (28.2 km) southwest of Kauaʻi across the Kaulakahi Channel .
As a result, Niʻihau is generally off-limits to all but relatives of the island's owners, U.S. Navy personnel, government officials, and invited guests. The island is famous as the location for the Niihau Incident, in which a Japanese fighter pilot crashed on the island and terrorized its residents during World War II.
The original 1979 series aired on public broadcaster NHK in Japan, and went on to inspire several other Japanese family drama series, and even a feature film adaptation in 2003.
