Anima Yell has been serialized in Manga Time Kirara Carat since 2016! The long-awaited anime adaptation began airing in October 2018. The story revolves around cheerleaders, and follows cute girls who try their best to cheer on others. Anima Yell is a true Kirara work, filled with friendship, laughter, and emotion! In this article, we'll introduce you to the charms of Anima Yell's main character, Ushiku Hanawa!

Kohane always acts for others, neglecting her own interests. Kohane always thinks about others and neglects what she wants to do, but one day, she sees some cheerleaders cheering for a baseball game on the riverbank. She is fascinated by their cute yet powerful appearance, cheering for others with all her might, and wants to become a cheerleader herself! She decides to do so. Unfortunately, there is no cheerleading club at her high school, but thanks to Kohane's unyielding enthusiasm, people gradually gather and the club starts working. By the way, the title seems to mean "Animal + Yell" because each character has an animal's name in it.
Ushiku Kana (CV: Shiraishi Haruka)

She made a brief appearance in the first episode of the anime, but was the last to join. The real star is a talented and experienced member worthy of a late appearance. With her joining, the cheerleading club was formed with five members! I wondered what kind of character she would be, as she appeared after many other characters had been introduced, but she turned out to be a much more charming character than I expected. In the beginning, Hanawa was quite hostile towards the cheerleading club, but that gradually softens. Her name is "Kana", not "Hanawa"! It is likely a reference to the cow and nose ring.

Hanawa is played by Haruka Shiraishi! She is a talented voice actress who has steadily gained popularity by appearing in various works since her voice acting debut in 2012. In recent years, she is famous for her roles as Kirie in Umaru-chan and Asirpa in Golden Kamuy.
Charm of Ushiku Hanawa 1: The best body in the series!

Until then, Uki was in charge of the nice body, but as soon as she appeared, she snatched that position! (lol) When she was wearing Uki's uniform and worried that the chest area would be loose because everyone around her is Uki's size, she got the answer, "Yeah, it's just a little tight, so it's okay," and she has a nice body that matches those words. She's a late-arriving supernova...
Charm of Ushiku Hanawa 2: Classic cuteness

Reddish hair, twin tails, and overbearing speech. She's packed with irresistible elements for fans, isn't she? (lol) How many cute faces, twin tails, and big breasts can you pack in? (lol) As the last to join, she has such amazing attributes that she can be called the ultimate weapon! She's surprisingly tall at 160cm, and has an amazing figure.
Charm 3 of Ushiku Hanawa: Cute Tsundere

After all, if you've packed so many good points into it, this is the last one! Hanawa has a tsundere attribute just like her appearance! Uki also has a bit of a tsundere feel to her, but she's the fifth member and it feels like she's finally here. I wonder why she didn't have the red-haired twintailed tsundere big-breasted girl join sooner (lol). Maybe it's because she was teased so much that we're grateful for her.
Charm of Ushiku Hanawa 4: Her ability as a cheerleader

As she is an experienced member, her cheerleading skills are quite high. The cheerleading club was basically made up of beginners and had a one-man team feel, but with her addition, the level has improved dramatically and the range of performances has expanded. Hanawa-chan has solid skills that match her arrogant attitude and is a model for the cheerleading club.
Charm 5 of Ushiku Hanawa: Overly Heavy Love

This is an important point that cannot be overlooked when talking about Ushiku Hanawa! Hanawa has admired Hizume since middle school, and even decides all his actions with her in mind. He is also a super yes-man who agrees with everything Hizume says! Uki and Kohane are similar, but perhaps this is a higher level of love. His words towards Hizume are so strong that people around him say they are too harsh. Let's take a look at some of Hanawa's love for Hizume!
Hanawa's love for Hizume Part 1: Bowing is natural

Hanawa bows down with all his might in apology for Hizume's absence, even though she had come all the way to the classroom for him! For Hizume, it was no problem for Hanawa to make her forehead kiss the floor! By the way, just before this, she had told Kohane that she didn't need to come to class, so the sudden change in her attitude was very funny (lol)
Hanawa's love for hooves Part 2: Inside the locker...

The cheerleading club members have decided to take on short-term part-time jobs during the summer vacation. It was only a short stay, so there was no need to do anything extra with a locker other than putting our belongings in it, but Hanawa's locker was full of his hoof collection (lol). Kotechan was shocked, but when I kindly praised him, he wasn't embarrassed at all, he got really shy (lol). He has such a strong love for her (lol). If this is his locker, I wonder what his room will be like... I'm looking forward to seeing it revealed to the public someday.
Hanawa's love for Hoof, Part 3: Even hating being smart

This is the scene where everyone decides to have a study session. It's basically a study session for Kohane, but Hanawa ends up regretting how smart he is. Because Hoof is the one who teaches him! (lol) Hanawa was really depressed that if she wasn't smart, Hizume would have taught her how to study. Being smart is a good thing though (lol)
Summary of Ushiku Hanawa's charms!

The fifth and final member of the cheerleading club arrived. As she was so eagerly awaited to be introduced, she is a character packed with wonderful charms! Red hair in twin tails, tsundere, big boobs, yuri! I think it's a bit too much, but she expresses everything beautifully! Of course, as a former cheerleader, she also has the capacity to lead everyone, making her quite versatile. I can't wait to see her appear more in the anime. Be sure to check out Hanawa-chan in the anime and the original work.
