Uramichi Oniisan #2
Life Lessons with Uramichi 2
Verbittert, zynisch und Moderator einer beliebten Kindershow: Bühne frei für Uramichi! Während Uramichi mit zahllosen Überstunden, unwürdigen Arbeitsbedingungen und wenig schmeichelhaften Kostümen zu kämpfen hat, lernt er hinter den Kulissen andere Menschen kennen, die innerlich genauso abgestumpft sind wie er. Doch obwohl sich hinter dem Digital Strategist Saito und dem Merchandise-Experten Hanbei scheinbar verwandte Geister verbergen, fällt es Uramichi schwer, mit ihnen warm zu werden. Es gibt wohl einfach niemanden, der ihn wirklich versteht … oder doch?!

I received this manga from Netgalley/Kodansha comics in exchange of an honest review.
As I said in my first volume review (see here) apparently the English volume is two volumes in one. I already wrote almost 600 words for the first one when I got to the end of the first half and found out there is another volume there. So I decided to split it up.
The second volume and I am so enjoying this one! We are back again with new shows, new hilarious scenes, and some depressing but at times funny dark comedy.
We see some segments from the previous time come back, but there is also introductions to new ones. And little boys and girls, you may guess how Uramichi Oniisan and Ikiteru Oniisan feel about it since they are the ones in the weird outfits with even weirder names to accompany them. There are also new and very weird songs. Love it! I cannot wait for 2021 when the anime should be arriving. I wonder who is going to be voicing who and I cannot wait to hear the songs! Hyped!
I laughed so hard when they had to shoot a new music video about SUMMER in the freaking WINTER. Hahaha. You may just guess how dead they were inside especially given their outfits. Yes, let’s pretend it is summer while I freeze my ass off. That whole chapter was just one reel of hilariousness. Though I also felt sorry for the group. The mascots had it easy. Finally some time they weren’t hot and melting.
Once again I love that we get some glimpse of the characters (either alone or in a group) outside of the weird show they are making. I also liked seeing the company trip (though poor Uramichi) and had such a laugh at how drunk and weird everyone got. Oh lord. 😛 Plus, we get some early before they were at the show glimpses, YAS!
OH, and I just had a big laugh, the kids are definitely getting influenced by this group of weirdos. During the crafts scene Utano was telling what they were going to make which turned out to be a chain. To which the kids replied this: “A chain?” “Like the Ones that keep grown-ups unfree?” And Utano quickly trying to make something else of it: “That’s right! It’s a necklace! We’re going to make necklaces!” Nice try there girl! 😛
Plus, when one of the mascots get sick and the bunny guy stands in for the bear guy the kids IMMEDIATELY know that something is up and that this isn’t Kumao-san. These kids are sharp! That is not what I am used from kids. Generally they won’t notice. But I guess in this manga they do and that is perfect for what the manga is about.
Oh, and as with the previous manga, the parts between the chapters have songs and other fun bits! So happy they were added there.
Once again, just like the first volume, there are tons of funny expressions and hilarious faces. The author really did a fab job on that. They capture the fake brightness, but also the dark and scary expressions perfectly.
All in all, I cannot wait for more of this series it is hilarious and so much fun to read! Highly recommended.

This is honestly one of the funniest series ever. There were times where I felt like some of the chapters just served as "fillers", but irregardless, I still had a fun time reading this.
I'll recommend this to those who are into dark humor and is just looking for a light read. :)

I seriously enjoy this series. It’s always funny to me and relatable at the same time. This had some cute stories I remember from the anime.

J'ai toujours autant de plaisir à lire les leçons de vie d'Uramichi. C'est tellement cynique, on pointe plein de situations un peu absurdes de la vie d'adulte pour mieux en rire. Les commentaires des enfants sont les meilleurs: ils frappent là où ça fait mal!
Le tome n'est pas très épais, mais les situations s'enchaînent et il y a plusieurs scénettes à déguster. J'aime beaucoup lire ces tomes par petits bouts pour faire durer ce plaisir un peu amer!

Cada vez me parezco más a Uramichi.
La vida de un hombre en sus treinta, sus constantes altibajos emocionales, situaciones de su trabajo en un programa para niños, sus compañeros de casi treinta enfrentándose a situaciones similares.
Adoré el viaje de la empresa, al igual los diálogos de los niños tan sinceros y hasta hirientes.
Estoy intrigada por el pasado de Uramichi.

Warms my crusty ALT heart. This one was also funny, but we got to see more of the characters behind the humor. This is definitely going to be a series I keep up with.

The last page is so unsettling. That's a genuine smile. AAAAHHHHH!
Also, I'm so happy I finally got to see them in their college days.
Who hurt you, Uramichi Omota?

Zynisch, staubtrocken, ein bisschen stumpf und lebensverneinend. Das ist Life Lessons with Uramichi.
Band 2 gefiel mir tatsächlich sogar noch besser, als der Auftakt, weil ich die Charaktere bereits kenne und einschätzen kann. Dadurch entsteht so viel Situationskomik, dass ich oft gar nicht aus dem Lachen rauskomme.
Was ich zudem begrüße ist, dass die Charaktere zwar alle so ihren Struggle mit dem Leben haben, aber dennoch grundverschieden sind.
Die Sprache ist manchmal etwas derb und sehr direkt, was ich sehr mag. Am besten sind die Situationen, in denen Uramichis Gesichtsausdruck und das was er sagt einfach nicht zusammen passen wollen.
Apropos Gesichtsausdrücke. Dieses Handwerk beherrscht die Manga in meinen Augen hervorragend, denn die Emotionen der Charaktere werden sehr gut übertragen.
Zwar sind die Bände relativ dünn, dennoch hatte ich nicht das Gefühl wenig zu erleben. Dadurch, dass er Erzählstil episodischer Natur ist, durchleben Leser:innen einiges mit den Charakteren.
Es gibt aktuell wirklich nichts, was mir an dieser Reihe nicht gefällt. Sie trifft einfach vollkommen meinen Humor und zudem sind Zeichen- und Erzählstil super.
