The story revolves around cheerleaders, and is about cute girls trying their best to cheer on others. Anima Yell is a true Kirara work, with friendship, laughter, and emotion! In this article, we will introduce the charms of Anima Yell's main character, Saruwatari Uki!

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 of the show seems to mean "Animal + Cheer" because each character has an animal's name in it.

A childhood friend of the main character Kohane, Uki is a good friend who supports her devotedly while worrying about Kohane, who always gets hurt or does dangerous things for the sake of others. Uki always puts Kohane first, and it was Uki who encouraged Kohane to find something she herself wants to do. Thanks to his advice, Kohane was able to meet Cheer. The name is thought to be derived from the monkey and the sound it makes, Ukki.

Charm 1 of Saruwatari Uki: Her best style in the series

Kohane has a relatively childlike figure, while Hizume has a slender, stocky build. Since she was often with these two in the beginning of the story, Uki's large breasts were very noticeable. They were often the subject of jokes in the story. And yet she is not at all fat, which is exactly what you would call a nice body! Until Hanawa appeared later, Uki was the one with the nicest bodies. She is the big-breasted one in Anima Yell! I would love to see a cheerleader like her! (lol)

In the story, Uki is often caught between Kohane, who has a slightly amusing way of thinking, Hizume, who is too serious and disappointing, and other unique characters. Therefore, Uki, one of the few people with common sense, inevitably has to be the one to make the jokes (laughs). Unless the joke is extremely sloppy, he makes sure to make the right jokes and does his job properly, just like a craftsman! It's also nice to see how hard it is to do, but he still enjoys it. Everyone recognizes how high his jokes are!
Charm 3 of Uki Saruwatari: Surprisingly feminine

Uki has a cool and straightforward image, but she also has a cute side. One of them is that she doesn't like ghosts. She's so scared of ghosts that she does the somewhat mysterious thing of investigating them, but these unexpected sides are also one of Uki's charms. Uki also has a lot of other unexpected sides, such as liking cute things and being shy.

At first, she was forced by Kohane to start cheerleading, but when a third party made fun of her cheerleading, she showed a side of her that got really angry. At that time, it was her younger brother, but she cheered with all her might in front of him and showed off her cool side. If she does something, she does it seriously, and it's one of her good points that she shows such a cool side.
Charm 5 of Saruwatari Uki: She loves Kohane too much!

This is Uki's greatest charm! She's a best friend, a childhood friend, a mother, and a girlfriend. That's Uki. He clearly has extraordinary feelings for Kohane, and it's obvious that they go beyond the feeling of being best friends! He'll forgive anything for Kohane! Here are some scenes of Uki loving Kohane, so please be soothed by the unusually yuri-yuri Uki.

If Kohane seems to be having fun with someone, he immediately gets jealous (lol). When it comes to Kohane, he wants to be number one, so he always competes with Hizume in particular. However, he's good at socializing, so it never becomes a tense atmosphere. Everyone except Hizume knows how much he loves Kohane.

Uki loves Kohane and is very spoiled, but when she gets to touch her body with Kohane using a cheerleading technique, she gets really happy. That was fine, but when she gets to put her head between Kohane's legs, she gets really ecstatic. And the best part is when Kohane almost falls and puts her foot down, pinning Uki's face between her thighs... "Thank you" (lol). Uki is supposed to be a pretty sensible character, but I just wanted to see him as a pervert (lol)
Summary of Saruwatari Uki's charms!

Uki-chan is the only person in the cheerleading club who has common sense and is the straight man. But when it comes to Kohane, she is such a big fan of Kohane that she loses her sense of character. Uki is truly indiscriminate when it comes to Kohane, and she is like Kohane's mother, older sister, and lover all in one! I think that this kind of yuri Uki will gradually appear in the anime, so let's look forward to the day when we can see it soon.
