Synopsis

Umaru Doma is a model student who has a hidden side: when she gets home each day, she puts on her hamster hoodie and turns into a sluggish otaku fond of junk food. As Umaru continues these daily antics, the friendship between her and her classmates—Nana Ebina, Kirie Motoba, and Sylphinford Tachibana—deepens, and more and more interesting events begin to unfold.

Of course, these events give rise to numerous questions. What did Nana ask of Umaru's brother Taihei? Who is the mysterious girl with the diamond hairpin? And most important of all: why does this girl seem to know Umaru? These questions and more will be answered in Himouto! Umaru-chan R!

The second season is a lot better than the first. We're finally past the focus on the paradisiacal and gimmicky otaku life of Umaru and her dual personality.

A lot more time is dedicated to the other girls and their problems and concerns, which actually makes Umaru more relevant and interesting as a character since this time around she can be more than something for her older brother to bear and clean up after it. We get a chance to see her more of her behavior as a friend and ...

When I watched the first season of Umaru-chan years ago, I found it quite entertaining. But unfortunately I cannot say the same for the second season.

Without making the review too long, I will say that I don't care about Umaru's group of friends, all of whom are very annoying. The entire entertainment value of this anime was the goofy but sweet things Umaru did during the time she spent mostly in her room and the relationship she had with her older brother.

I wrote a review for this season, but it was too long since I was mostly venting my frustrations. Instead of talking about specifics, I'll just directly point out the main reason why this season was unbearable:

The brother main character keeps to himself the location and phone number of a brother of one of Umaru's friends, and they've said they've been looking for the whereabouts of that brother for 10 years. The brother MC notices the brother has the same last name as her, has the same hairband as her, acts like her... but doesn't bother simply asking that brother if he was related ...
