Uzaki-chan wa Asobitai! is a decent romantic comedy that follows the often raunchy shenanigans of Shinichi Sakurai, a college student, and his high school friend, the lively and energetic Uzaki Hana. Uzaki is a girl who infamously looks like a 12-year-old boy with honking back-breaking baby-busting tata bongos. She would classify as a manic-pixie-dream-girl if that term werenāt overused and grossly misogynistic. Uzaki and Sakari attend college together and spend their days hanging out together, to the latterās dismay. They get into mischievous (sexual) hijinks and slowly develop romantic feelings for one another. In season two, Shinichi and Uzaki are still in college, and their relationshipis blossoming. They continue annoying/entertaining one another and learning more about each other while balancing their studies and social lives. Their romantic chemistry is there; Uzaki likes making fun of him while also being attracted to him. Given that heās ripped, has a job, and is educated, I understand. Shinichi gives her sass right back too. Heās not a cuckold, unlike those other infamous teasing-centric anime. The raunchy humor is caused by Shinichi and Uzakiās follies more often than stupid contrivances, except the spa episode, and I appreciate that because itās much more cringe-worthy and less head-shaking. Conjuring cringe-humor from the charactersā personalities develops them while remaining tonally consistent. That way, the gags donāt appear unfunny or lazily written. The jokes are as prevalent as ever in this season, though there are sincere attempts at romantic progression. Seeing the two flustered over one another is funny (sometimes unintentionally), while every side character roots for them to get together in the background. The show introduces a few new characters, including Uzakiās father and her little sister, who looks even more gremlin-like than her. Their introductions are so out of the blue it could be called a retcon. Shinichiās coworker and friend, Ami and Sakaki, are also back to provide comedic relief and support, but they take a backseat to the new side characters. Uzakiās mom plays a more prominent role this season as she trains Shinichi to cook and continues to assume heās attracted to herāthe joke is pretty stale by now. Your mileage may vary on how much you enjoy the innuendo-riddled dialogue, and itās varied enough that I appreciated it in small doses. Some people find Uzaki-chanās over-the-top fanservice and cliche slice-of-life plot entertaining and relaxing. Itād be hypocritical of me to shit on all the fanservice since I appreciate the male fanservice. At the same time, others (me specifically) are tired of the predictable plotlines, repetitive humor, and lack of originality. Uzaki-chan is like the lesser-known anime cousin of Family Guyāyouāll see a few funny clips on social media or in compilations, but the actual show itself is primarily predictable, unoriginal, and boring. Itās possibly due to the massive hate the first season earned that Uzaki-chan has gained a niche following and continues to achieve success. When the first season aired in 2020, I vehemently despised it. I wrote a rant so unhinged that it (rightfully) got deleted. After rewatching the first season and watching the second, Iād say itās actually quite decent. The main draw of the animation is plenty of absurd facial expressions, jiggly jugs, and visual gags. Character designs are standard here, other than Uzaki, as previously addressed. Ami looks a little strange, which may be a problem with the animation. Her face is often off-model, and she looks like she has a unibrow. Thereās no need for exciting animation cuts here, though it wouldāve elevated the script. One aspect of the production that stood out was the Ex-Arm quality CGI cars. The soundtrack is also upbeat and cheerful. The OP and ED are boisterous and catchy and fit the annoying tone of the show perfectly. Overall, Uzaki-chan wa Asobitaiās second season is a wholesome and harmless sequel that will make you occasionally grin and maybe even chuckle. Although unoriginal, the characters are endearing, and their relationship is pretty cute. If you are looking for lighthearted and easily consumable romantic anime fluff, this should serve its purpose.

Well, surely, we didn't think that we needed another season of SUGOI DEKAI, but the series is still just as humongous and boisterious as it was when Season 1 aired back in Summer 2020, a relatively good 2 years at this point. To be frank, the relationship between Hana Uzaki and Shinichi Sakurai was kinda a bit of a frenzy back when we were first introduced to the both of them, the not-so-introvert NEET and the big mouth annoyance of a girl that defined just as much as the Senpai-kouhai difference. But after a season's worth of getting used to them, Season 2 continues that trendand actually refines a lot of the roughness surrounding the lives of both Uzaki and Sakurai themselves, even with the somewhat in-your-face comedy progressively shifting to that of the possible romance relationship as they are literally stuck with each other and being comfortable in each other's shoes. New to Season 2, would be the in-depth look into the families of both MCs, as we get to witness more of what made them as such: the Uzakis' of father Fujio, mother Tsuyu, younger siblings of brother Kiri and sister Yanagi. Yes, the periodic table of misunderstandings grow ten-fold as the comedy grows like weeds from within, awaiting the tingling senses of its origin story and inheritance that basically caused the eldest Hana to be this way. It's good to see Sakurai being less of a NEET (though he usually still is) by trying to be more social, as is the case that makes for some intentional comedy that does feel like mangaka Take's source material is more refined and improved over time, especially with the hints of romance budding as both Uzaki and Sakurai notice that they're more than just hang-out buddies at this point. The rest are practically just the same if you've already watched Season 1 before, I really didn't notice anything different in ENGI's production styles, which is fine by me since I would rather want consistency over any kind of rush to get the sequel out. The OST feels improved for Season 2, or rather, that's because of the change in tones in the sequel's contents that made it to be as such. The SUGOI DEKAI is still beating its heartstrings nicely, and if you're already caught up with Season 1, the sequel should be a no-brainer that it's just as (if not more) enjoyable as the series hits its momentum to give the stride.
Urusei!!!!!So 2nd season has ended a couple of days ago....So, let's get down to brass tax: Story- Not much has change only having to see both MC's family , like Uzaki's Otosan being a bodybuilder and her okasan at the age of 40 is still hot as an 18 year old , her sister who could be a potential rival for the girl's love interest and her kid brother who could pass as a hot girl...now as for the sempai , Sakurai, we get to see that his father is younger than her mother both were Judo aficionados and still manages to have another baby intheir 40's....the rest were just random and from the episode 6 everything becomes a chore to watch given that nothing has change and nothing has developed. FYI: as for the art, soiund and enjoyment...I'm not gonna say anything about these category given that this sequel still relies on the parent anime. Character: Ok, there only 2 main characters to mentioned around here, but given that there hasn't been any character development with Hana Uzaki and her sempai Sakurai, Shinichi so I'll be more on the side characters that has gave this sequel an impact: Father and Daughter : Asai, Akihiko and Asai, Ami, from the start it's not clear as to why the father and daughter cafe owners take interest on the couple Uzaki and Shinich who happens to work for them....now , either for them those couple were their source of entertainment or they're just insanely curious, but then again suing them as an added comedic asset by the original creator who call's himself "take" was simply just a way to cover up his dwindling writer's thought. Sakaki, Itsuhito: As Shinich's tomodachi, it was nice that he is the only one who reminds Shinich to get real about his feeling towards Uzaki, and it was nice that he doesn't let up , though he may have got himself caught up with the cafe owners shenanigans, he would've have been a very good Bestman if Uzaki and Shinich were to marry. Sakurai, Shirou: Shinich's otosan, well he's another side character that manages to have some manly talk with the latter, but in a rough and brutal way that is. Uzaki, Yanagi: Ok so she's Hana's kid imouto, though she could've have been a rival for her big sister's love interest , she seemly does tease Shninich to make Hana move fast or she'll take the guy from her.....of course that's just her messing with her big sister. Uzaki, Fujio: Hana's otosan, well you could say that he's one character who will non verbally that Shinich shouldn't mess with Hana or else , he'll have to deal with him. Tsuki Uzaki: Hana's okasan, well she maybe a reluctant rival for Hana's love interest , but fortunately it was all in her own misunderstanding..... Overall- Given that nothing has change nor anything has develop, I wouldn't recommend this , especially when it starts to become a chore to watch in the midst of the season.....so , season 3???? Don't even think about it bitch. Happy New Year.
Guys I literally tortured myself by watching all 13 episodes of this mess. Season 2 was a complete and utter disappointment. I thought maybe, just maybe, the creators would learn from their mistakes in Season 1 and actually develop the characters and plot. But nope, it was more of the same annoying and cringeworthy content. Shinichi, the main character, is still a wet blanket who can't even muster up the courage to hold Uzaki's hand by the end of the series. Like, what's the point of even calling this a romantic comedy if there's no progress whatsoever? It's just a tease, a constant tease that leavesyou frustrated and unsatisfied. And don't even get me started on Uzaki-chan herself. She's still as obnoxious and overbearing as ever, always forcing Shinichi to do things he's uncomfortable with. I mean, can't she just respect his boundaries for once? It's like the creators think it's cute or something, but really, it's just annoying. I swear, watching this anime was like pulling teeth. I had to force myself to finish each episode, and by the end of it, I was just relieved it was over. 1/10, would not recommend to my worst enemy. If you value your sanity, stay far, far away from this trainwreck.
8/10 Season 2 of uzaki chan is a very good surprise, and a must-watch if one is a romance fan, The main problem I have with a standard romance anime is how fictional and tropey the characters can be, they love each other wholeheartedly, and don't have a drop of malice or flaw in their character whatsoever. they had the most fated of encounters ever etc, But in Uzaki we have , The best wingmen/women ever , yet they fail to ever recognise each other as potential partners. Even though in season 1 we had already got enough hints since⦠Uzaki spends literally all her time with senpai, and even stays over . Sak only ever opens up to and is comfortable around Uzaki. They can even tell what is going on in each of the others heads , that's how close they are. Season 2 capitalizes well on this already established thing and opens the Avenue of romance , but they don't just suddenly "realize there feelings and get together" ofc if it were that easy they would have dated way earlier since high school. Plot (8/10) A slow and good progression is developed between the main lead, they finally begin to take each other and their relationship seriously , the supporting characters provide the very critical support that these two very volatile people need . The personality of these two leads to the most hilarious of cringeworthy yet funny and relatable situations. The new characters are also pretty out there and colorful and add a good layer on top, since the season has moved on from just Uzaki and antics to a serious character driven comedy. Characters (8/10) The old characters are as they were funny and quirky , but the catch this season is that they are suddenly presented with more sensitive information and their reaction to the same is quite the fun. The newer and secondary characters are also as wild as can be expected and provide the old ones much more of a push in the right direction , which they were missing last season. Sound and VA (7/10) The ost is a bit orthodox , with most characters having a sort of theme that is unique to them played out in a repeated way , the soundtrack itself is good for a comedy settting. The serious developmental / cute moments don't have a good soundtrack to accompany it which is a bit of a downer. The Op is pretty good music wise and quite nice to hear. ED is not to my taste but well done artistically. Art and animation (7/10) Pretty average all things considered and there aren't any changes from last season as i can recall. The art of OP is good and gives us a first impression of most new characters properly. This is a good watch , please give this a shot if you already went through the first season the payoff and development is worth it.
