Uzaki-chan Wants to Hang Out!

This anime is one of the funniest anime of 2020. Uzaki-chan aka Hana Uzaki is 16 year old girl with immature mind who always wants to hangout with his senior. As the story advances we will see the funniest accident a teenager couple can go through. Though they not realized yet, but they both have feelings for each other.

I can't understand why this show is rated so low. It's funny, it's cute, it's memorable. The characters are outstanding. Theres just so much to gleam from this gem.

I'm a female who is usually put off by any ecchi themes in a series but despite its appearance uzaki chan isn't all about sexual stuff and is a fantastic series. loved watching this, i love the relationship uzaki and sakurai have. can't wait for next season, definitely my favourite anime

(16+) Another comedy romance that got most of the comedy right but still managed to miss a little on the romance. At least it has an ending highly suggestive that the protagonists are finally getting their act together. My major criticism of this anime is the ugly, weird looking cat that seems to pop up multiple times in every episode. What the heck!? Why!? That cat single-handedly cost this series a point on my rating, and it ruined so many scenes also. Whoever decided that this was a good idea should have been fired. The female protagonist is awesome and carries the show, and I recommend the series strictly based off of her. She is funny, well voiced, and her brutal and hilarious verbal beatdowns of the male protagonist is not to be missed! Other than that, I think this show carried out gags a little too much, but otherwise its a solid watch.

It follows the eponymous Hana Uzaki who is at first delighted to be at the same college as her classmate from high school Shinichi Sakurai. But when she sees that he has a rather mundane lifestyle, she decides to take it upon herself to hang out with him.

I get that there was some slight controversy of the series because of some moral guardians being critical of Uzaki's design. If not for her...assets, she would easily be confused for maybe a high school or elementary school kid. Her being short not helping matters. But...the show establishes that she is a young adult as in reaching her 20s at best.

Pushing the controversy aside, thus far the characters are very enjoyable. There's Uzaki herself for starters. She is energetic and preppy as well as a Grade A troll who loves to mess around with Shinichi. She has the potential to be annoying, but she squarely falls under the "not too obnoxious" side for me partially because it is a more funny kind of annoying wherein the character or characters are the ones being irritated by her antics.

But she also has her good side. There are moments where she does unwittingly drive Shinichi off the deep end and she apologizes. Ultimately she does have a good heart where she wants to ensure that Shinichi does live fully. Shinichi is a good foil. He tends to want to be by himself and enjoy that time and when Uzaki intervenes, you can understand his frustration with her. But he does find himself slowly enjoying being around Uzaki. Despite this, he does have a softer side such as loving cats and dogs. It's unfortunate that because of the perpetual scowl on his face, he comes off as imposing.

Supporting characters include Ami, her father, and Shinichi's only friend. Ami works for her father at his cafe where Shinichi works largely because of how attractive he is. Which comes across as interesting in terms of Ami: she lusts after Shinichi because of his physique, but much like her father, she is a passive watcher of Uzaki and Shinichi taking an interest in seeing their relationship bloom.

Sakaki is Shinichi's friend who is a ladies' man who also takes an interest in the relationship because he wants Shinich to get a girlfriend which puts him in conflict with Ami due to him wanting to take an active approach in getting them together. He's kind of sleazy to me, but that's from a minor glance. He may get better over the course of the series.

The animation and voice work is also good as well as the sound effects. Overall, a good watch.
