Uzaki your cruise director
Soon after placing my order, I was reminded of a David Foster Wallace essay "A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again", about his experiences on a cruise ship. Wallace noted how determined the cruise line was that passengers enjoy themselves; the attitude seemed to be "You will have fun on this cruise even if we have to break your arms and legs." I figured out the connection. Uzaki has appointed herself the cruise director of Sakurai's life and she does go all out in her efforts, even giving him a concussion at one point. Uzaki is something else; this is a woman ready to go to war over the subject of mint chocolate. She also has a new job working at the same cafe as Sakurai. Meanwhile, we meet, Sakaki, a friend of Sakurai's and he and Asai, whose dad owns the cafe, find themselves in contention over how best to make Sakurai and Uzaki a couple. There is a trip to the beach and not surprisingly, Uzaki looks spectacular in a bikini. She reaches the legal drinking age and decides to sample alcohol, or over-sample, which gives Sakurai a delicate situation. Uzaki-chan Wants to Hang Out! continues to be a funny series. Uzaki has a winning charm which keeps her from going over the line into obnoxiousness. It will be worth seeing what she plans for Sakurai in the next volume.

A funny slice of life
Uzaki-Chan wants to hang out volume 2 continues the manga of Shinichi Sakurai a tsundere who has a friend with a big personality as they get in all sort of adventures. First and foremost the art is fantastic for a slice of life comedy it is beautifully drawn and the characters all have personality. The humor also lands mostly some jokes are funnier than others but it was still humorous regardless the scene with the beach and the watermelon was pretty funny I'm still laughing. The fourth wall also gets broken from time to time and the manga shows you its self aware which adds to the humor. One page shows a fan service friendly version of the waiter from the previous chapter and the author said she was a fan favorite. It was funny. The characters also play-off each other great we get introduced to Sakurai's high school friend and see the cast grow.Uzaki-Chan is a great manga an Anime is coming in the summer I can't wait for that but you should still read the manga for the art alone. Can't thank the Japanese Red Cross controversy enough for introducing me to this series.

Seven Seas Knocks Another Release Out Of The Park
Uzaki-Chan vol. 2 arrived on the scheduled date of release (Tuesday, January 14th, 2020) and in perfect condition. The paper the manga is printed on is just as good as the previous release. No bends, scratches or tears either. The condition alone is the reason for the five stars which it fully deserves.The manga itself gets a 4.5 which is an upgrade of half a point from the previous volume. The series, from what I've read, continually gets better and better. The comedy works more often than not, the characters become more likeable than they already were, and the story continues it's weird brand of romance in this volume. This is genuinely a good read if slice of life and 'opposites attract' romance interests you.This volume contains chapters 14-23 +an extra. Uzaki-Chan Wants To Hang Out! Vol. 3 will be released Tuesday, June 16th, 2020 so if you are reading this before then, you have a chance to see what all the hype is about. Please give it a go!

Those Darn Cats
Okay the random Poop cats showing up everywhere throughout Volume 2 of Uzaki Chan Wants To Hang out are the real show stealer of the volume. Wherever they show up it cracks me up. Like seriously I don't know what is up with them but I hope they never stop.But besides that the comedy/ chemistry between Uzaki and Sakuri is very entertaining. Though by this point I hope that they officially become a couple as I think that could open up a lot of new comedic territory. It'd go along way to starting to make the series stand out from others like it. As is though it's still very enjoyable with a more classic level of fan service more akin to late 90s/ early 2000s as opposed to more modern fan service series. -MickManga

This is my new guilty pleasure!
I am so in love with this manga. Uzaki is cuter than cute, & sassy too (I love that in a girl). I've got more than one "kouhai" myself, who all happen to be boisterous, busty, & full of smart @$$ remarks (and kinda like sempai, I can't get rid of them... sheesh...). So, I totally relate to Sakurai. Art, great. Dialogue, very good. Characters, believable, likeable, & relatable. If you like slice of life and/or fun rom-com, read this manga. Plus Uzaki in a bikini. I love it! "If you like pina coladas, & getting caught in the rain..."

FUN! Despite it being another Rom-Com!!
"The 'Rom-Com' has been done to death!", I hear you cry, but go ahead and give this a read anyways! Why? Because the characters involved are a delight to watch, and NO, not just because the main female character is overly endowed either! Once you start in on the story, you'll more than likely start wanting to see how the characters change and mature, and end up tripping over themselves and their friends and crashing and burning in the process! This manga is just plain FUN!

Una comedia romántica con mucha pechonalidad
Está es mi comedia romántica favorita.Sigue el día a día de dos estudiantes de universidad.La menor es una chica muy alegre, linda y bastante molesta para su senpai.Y el mayor es un muchacho bastante serio que se preocupa por su compañera pero es bastante solitario.Los diseños de personajes y arte son buenos. La historia es muy entretenida y muy divertida con situaciones variadas y un buen progreso.Una fácil recomendación si buscan una buena comedia romántica o si vienen después de ver el anime.

Good
I already read the translated version and it was more in-depth dialog wise. Sometimes it feels like it's really dumbed down emotionally and dramatically due to the translation.
