Uzaki-chan Wants to Hang Out! Season 2
Synopsis — from MyAnimeList
During the summer holidays, energetic Hana Uzaki spent most of her time accompanying her lonesome upperclassman, Shinichi Sakurai. Now that school has resumed, Uzaki's teasing continues to ramp up, much to Sakurai's constant annoyance. Nevertheless, no amount of ridicule can damage the pair's relationship—which only seems to be getting better as their college days fly by!
