Uzaki-chan Wants to Hang Out!, Vol. 6 (My Kindle Review)

A romantically anxious Uzaki is determined to get Sakurai to confess his feelings for her while their friends and her crafty sister Yanagi try to add fuel to the slowly burning flames. We also see Sakurai visiting his parents who he rarely keeps in contact with, and discovers that’s he a big brother now. A- (91%/Excellent)

Uzaki still wants to hang out, but the context of said hanging out is still ever so slowly changing. With Shinichi suddenly the potential target of other women, it might be time for her to get something off her chest. Meanwhile, senpai lets it all hang out himself for a change, prompting some serious trauma.

This is a surprisingly strong volume of a series that I had kind of forgotten about and it leans hard on a ton of meta-humour, which I normally hate, and mixes it with some cute moments of genuine honesty between two people who are often anything but.

That meta stuff largely works because of those ridiculous screaming cat heads the author uses with wild abandon and make me laugh every single time. They show up as background characters, a horror montage, and, most memorably, a wailing censor box. It is such a dumb image but so stupidly good.

Watching two dummies who love each other acting coy can be frustrating, much like… most manga, really… but this volume spends ample time calling out their stupid way of thinking, even as it leans into it, and I do appreciate the mangaka at least acknowledging what they’re doing.

This gives our side characters more to do by way of commentary, especially Ami, who turns out to have a disturbing sixth sense about this sort of thing. The male friend, whose name escapes me, is perfect just screaming everything at the top of his lungs that the audience is already thinking.

The entire Uzaki family comes back again and the dynamics here are super fun. They work great as a unit and between mom’s horrible assumptions (now projected to Hana’s younger sister) and the brother’s unfortunate brush with serious inadequacy issues there’s a lot to love here.

We also get the introduction of Shinichi’s family and in the realm of bad manga dads, oh lord, this one takes the cake and his dad is so hilariously thirsty that it actually became something very, very funny. That’s a lot of why this volume works - it just doesn’t assume lewd automatically equals laughs and goes the extra step far more often than not.

I’m not saying you should particularly laud the behaviour of a man who kept his son away for two years so he could get more time to have sex with his wife, but that’s one elaborate plan and some really bizarre motivation. And he’s proud of it! The results of this, at their age nonetheless, are the icing on the cake.

There’s a perfectly genuine moment over both a cafe visit and proper names where senpai pulls into the lead by accident and then Hana gets eclipsed by her own sister. The overnight stay and Hana’s ridiculous revenge are also a nice, if predictable, moment (though the callback in the bonus manga is fun). There are enough moments of sugar and spice to make a whole volume, well, pretty darn nice.

If this series has a failing for me, it IS the especially ecchi stuff that (I suspect) most people are here for. I actually think the jokes are better than the fan service and I’m not outright begrudging them, but this writing is frequently better than the somewhat tawdry visuals.

3.5 stars and the mangaka being caught hilariously flat-footed by the anime getting a second series and some of the funniest dick jokes I’ve seen in ages (plus a genuinely enjoyable volume almost all around) leaves me with no recourse but to give it a rounded four stars, even if it’s so lowbrow at times it practically obscures my vision.

More of a 3.5 star rating;
I really like that Sakurai got to meet Uzaki’s younger sister and unknowingly meeting her younger brother as well. I’m really eager to see when he officially meets Uzaki’s father, as her father and not just one of his gym buddies; things will get very amusing when that does happen. I’m also really glad that we finally got to see Sakurai’s family and see that they have a pretty good relationship, despite lacking in communication.

I loved this volume so much! Uzaki and Sakurai both know Sakurai likes Uzaki at this point, but neither of them has realized that Uzaki likes him back! We did finally get some much needed verbalization of feeling from Sakurai - on accident, of course - stating that Uzaki is special to him.

Honestly, if this romance burns much slower, I might actually die.

Lo retomé desde donde se quedó el anime y no me decepcionó. Sí, es súper cliché, pero lo sabe manejar muy bien con sus personajes. Eso sí, uzaki se ve MUCHO mejor en el manga, su dibujo está muy superior a lo que vi en el anime.
Quiero ver cómo va a terminar esta historia.

A decent volume where Saku meets the other members of the Uzaki family in different ways. It was funny, honestly. Especially the sister chapters XD.
Saku's family was rather weird, it just felt weird ish
