What is sugoi dekai?

"Sugoi Dekai" is a Japanese phrase that translates to "super big" or "really big" in English. It gained popularity through the manga and anime series "Uzaki-chan Wants to Hang Out!" (Japanese: "宇崎ちゃんは遊びたい！"), created by Take. The character Hana Uzaki, who is known for her playful and energetic personality, often wears a shirt with "SUGOI DEKAI" written on it in large letters. This shirt has become iconic and closely associated with her character.

The series follows the interactions between Uzaki and her upperclassman, Shinichi Sakurai, as she persistently tries to engage him in various activities to make his college life more exciting. The dynamic between the two characters provides much of the series' comedic and heartwarming moments.

"Sugoi Dekai" has since become a popular meme and catchphrase among fans of the series, often used to emphasize something notably large or significant in various contexts.
