(宇崎ちゃんは遊びたい!) is a slice-of-life romantic comedy manga by Take, serialized in Kadokawa's Comic Walker and later adapted into an anime series that expanded the franchise's international profile. This is the first printing of Volume 1 from 2018, the debut collection introducing college student Hana Uzaki and her reluctant senpai, making it the foundational entry point for the series. The copy is raw and ungraded, offered in Very Fine condition, which typically corresponds to the 8.0–8.5 range on professional grading scales, indicating light wear with well-preserved covers, minimal spine stress, and pages free of significant defects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- westblue:seo_v2 \/end --\u003e","brand":"West Blue Collectibles","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48302195245213,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/8532\/3421\/files\/uzaki-chan-wants-to-hang-out-vol-1-1st-print-japanese-manga-very-fine-8259553.jpg?v=1779072431","url":"https:\/\/westblue.shop\/products\/uzaki-chan-wants-to-hang-out-vol-1-1st-print-japanese-manga-very-fine","provider":"West Blue Collectibles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
