A new promo video was released this Sunday for the anime adaptation of Take’s slice-of-life comedy manga Uzaki-chan Wants to Hang Out! (Uzaki-chan wa Asobitai!). The new promo video reveals new cast member Yousuke Akimoto (Ubertino in Arte) as Master, the owner of the bar where character Shinichi works at. Check out the PV here!

A new visual was also revealed:

The main cast are:

·        Naomi Ozora (Satanichia McDowell Kurumizawa in Gabriel DropOut) as Hana Uzaki

·        Kenji Akabane (Tetsuo in Sword Art Online) as Shinichi Sakurai

·        Ayana Taketatsu (Nino Nakano in Quintessential Quintuplets) as Ami Asai

·        Tomoya Takagi as Itsuhito Sakaki

Series author Take has previously expressed their thoughts and excitement for the upcoming anime adaptation of their manga, saying that “it was the hardest thing to keep this announcement a secret”. They also expressed hope that audiences “could look forward to seeing Uzaki moving around”.

The series will be directed by Kazuya Miura (Kemono Michi: Rise Up), with Takashi Aoshima (Yuruyuri – Happy Go Lily, Himouto! Umaru-chan) overseeing the scripts. Character design will be handled by Manabu Kurihara (Kemono Michi: Rise Up). Kadokawa’s subsidiary studio ENGI is producing the series. The series is set for a July release.

Uzaki-chan Wants to Hang Out! is written and illustrated by Take. The manga was first released in online platform Niconico on December 2017 under the Dra Dra Sharp brand. The series is a huge hit in Japan, especially for an online manga—compiled volumes of Uzaki-chan by Kadokawa have reached 500,000 sales.

Seven Seas holds the English license to the series, and they describe the story as thus:

“Sakurai Shinichi’s one wish is for a little peace and quiet. But Uzaki Hana–his boisterous, well-endowed underclassman–has other plans. All she wants is to hang out and poke fun at him. With the help of her chipper charm and peppy persistence, this might just be the start of a beautiful relationship!”
