I think what sets Bocchi apart is that it does not romanticize social awkwardness like a lot of anime. It shows that Gotoh missed out on a lot of stuff and when she actually interacted with her friends she began to do much better.

a minor thing i and some people have also noticed about nijika that i think is worth noting; in every other anime, nijika is pretty much the picture-perfect image for a protagonist. think about it; a dead parent, a sister who sacrificed her dream for her, and the dream of becoming a well-known band with the drive to achieve it by starting one herself. bocchi, in that kind of anime, would be the quirky side character who's there for comedy relief. instead we see that story unfold through bocchi's eyes and focus on her own little story of growing out of that shell to finally be the guitar hero we all know and love.

Massive shoutout to Kerorira, who was the Chief Animation Director and Character Designer. They worked on a staggering 500 to 600 key animation cuts where an average project would only be 100 cuts at most. Initially, they just read the manga and fell in love with it, so they started to use their connection to ask every producer they met about adapting the manga. They finally met Mr. Umehara, the producer who worked at Cloverworks. Kerorira sold his idea to Umehara, and they began working on it since 2019. Goes to show how much Kerorira loved the source material and wanted to see it adapted.

With all jokes aside, I think BtR has one of the most incredibly likeable and well written main casts of any slice of life I've ever seen. The dynamic between the main four feels so incredibly natural and they bounce off each other perfectly. It works for serious moments, it works for comedy and it even works in the music where you can feel the reflection of the character the wrote the lyrics for each individual song. Plus they seem to represent all 4 extremes of the sort of social spectrum in terms of introversion to extraversion and socially inept to adapt, so no matter who you are there's a character you can relate to. It's a show that holds a special place in my heart for not only perfectly representing some of my worst insecurities, but for also making me feel better about them by showing some work past those same struggles, and I don't think it could have achieved that if not for how perfect the main four characters are for each other

Not only the way they are animated during kessoku bands performances but how you can recognize what type and brand of instrument it is especially in the guitar store in the last episode. You see all the guitars on the walls and can easile recognize the les pauls, fender strats, Evh guitars and so on. And you can even recognize the different brands of guitar strings like the D'addario XLs and ernie ball slinkys.

The ticket quota episode is my favorite. She literally progressed mostly on her own, yes with the help of a drunkard but she didn't know Kiruki on a personal level at the time and was mainly doing this either out of blind trust or because she has social anxiety and can't refuse or even get away from Kiruki. Ultimately, she performed in front of a live random audience, met her quota, and gain that small bit of confidence. Compared to all her progress, I feel like here she skyrocketed, she grew exponentially and I love it. I hope to see a Mob Psycho level ending someday to Bocchi The Rock or maybe even better.

Problem is that I know that I am not exactly like Bocchi and I can handle some of the situations that she is in a lot better than she can.

I think one great writing thing that is also present in the manga is that the joke itself is also the plot point. Like, how Ryo is a bad spender, then Ryo is willing to buy Kita's guitar and eat weeds, and then to the cafe scene with her. Also when Bocchi meets Kita for the first time, tells Ryo and Nijika to become party people, and they meet in the street because of buying energy drinks, just before Kita runs away. It also shows how willing they are to listen to Bocchi's request. Also a little bit of a spoiler, the failed crowd dive is actually also a big plot point.

The original manga is a decent base, but the anime just knocks it out of the park. It's very nice to see such passion flowing from almost every facet of the anime, and the music is particularly great alongside all of the other creative visual elements and voice acting.

What I admire about this anime is how they can cover serious mental illness problems with comedy without the need to belittle the sufferer himself, which in this case is Bocchi with her social anxiety. This shows that is smart comedy is honest comedy that comes from our own anxiety. Not only from Bocchi's life struggles, but their struggle in building the band from scratch is really realistic and relatable (I was in a band for several years ago, so I can relate to that). Struggle they're looking for money just for gigs in small music clubs, selling tickets, promoting their bands, etc. What I can conclude is that this series shows the anxiety of the author as well as how passionate her and her team are in comedy and music. Relatable characters, relatable struggle, comedy and genre of music that I like for a long time. This anime has skyrocketed to become my top 3 anime series of all time, after Gintama and AOT, even after 3 months the impression still hasn't gone away in my head. . . . *ps: I think I wrote too much

Taking improv classes is a really good step in overcoming social anxiety. Assuming the classes are good, there's a gradual training in thinking on the spot, accepting that not everything has to land funny (a bad joke won't ruin a show), that others will support you instead of shutting you down ("yes, and" is a cardinal rule of etiquette), and ultimately how to perform in front of a crowd.

Bocchi does two things right out of the gate that hooked me, and they both happened in the first episode. The first is that it takes time and dedication to become good at something, the second is that changing your core personality is not simply a matter of just going “today I’m going to go out and talk to people and make friends”. Growing up shy it just doesn’t work that way, though people that aren’t shy seem to think it does, and media has pushed that idea so much that even shy people think that’s the solution.

the "imediatly get praised and become a puddle" is my main gut punch, cause the few times it happens i could not even know how to respond in any way that can be humanly acceptable, to the point where i try to change the theme or aim it at the other person imediatly even if i dont think they deserve it or everyone is saying it to me, like that one time we had to do some amateur voice over (something im really interested in) and LITERALY EVERYONE SAID REALLY NICE THINGS ONLY ABOUT ME, EVEN THE ORGANIZERS, i really wanted to die in that moment, and then i hear myself what i said and want to die even more because to me its hot garbage not even worth lisening a second off

Bocchi came as a surprised to me for being so good and it caming out of nowhere too. Also, if you're looking for another really good Slice of Life and CGDCT anime I'd recommend to watch Do it Yourself! from the same season but centered around a DIY club in the near future where manual labour has been decreased due to the advances in technology. It's really good and the cast is great too, also the opening is such a bop.

I always wanted to learn guitar but never did so..... Thats why i initially started watching bocchi, but turned out it was more about social anxiety..... Its take on social anxiety was totally different from many other animes with the same concept and for me, it was the most relatable one... the way they show the difference between a loner and someone lonely was beautiful... its comedy works like magic and the music is good too...Mostly i could see bocchi doing what i couldnt lol. A perfect anime!

[Haven't been by here in a while. I wonder how young Brandon is doing.] He's covering Bocchi ! Excellent choice. He Continues to be articulate and insightful. Makes good use of clips from the show to make his points. Not rambling over all the points, he wants to make but focusses in "chapters". Glad to see Brandon keeping quality anime reviewing alive. Thanks, Brandon

I can’t believe Yoshino Aoyama(Bocchi va) haven’t gotten any major role before this she’s so good or maybe she’s just perfect for the voice of Bocchi in the audition she was the only one who make the author Aki Hamaji laugh out loud while reading the line and Aki personally pick her

I really liked the realistic portrayal of how it feels to be an anxious introvert that does want friends. I also spent most of my school days alone because I had no idea how to interact with other kids. Turns out in my case it was less social anxiety and more general anxiety and undiagnosed autism, but the feelings are still there. I also appreciate that it shows Bocchi learning to manage her anxiety and not let it control her life, but in a realistically slow and step-by-step manner. This isn't something that magically goes away, but anyone can find small steps to take that slowly move them up the hill. And I like that being less anxious doesn't really make her less awkward, just awkward in a different way.

Bocchi is literally me. No other character can come close to relating to me like her. There is no way you can convince me that I’m not Bocchi. Bocchi could not possibly be any more me. It’s me, and nobody can convince me otherwise. If anyone approached me about this not possibly being me, I immediately shut them down with overwhelming evidence that Bocchi was me. Bocchi is absolutely me; it is indisputable. Why anyone would try to argue that Bocchi is not me is beyond me. If you held two pictures of me and Bocchi side by side, you’d see no difference. I can safely look at Bocchi every day and say, “Yup, she’s me.” I can practically see Bocchi whenever I look at myself in the mirror. I go outside, and people stop me from commenting on how similar I look and act as Bocchi is. I chuckle softly as I’m assured every day Bocchi is me in every way. I can smile each time I get out of bed each morning, knowing that I’ve found my identity with Bocchi and I know my place in this world. It’s amusing how similar she is to me; it’s almost like identical twins. When I first saw Bocchi, I had an existential crisis. What it Bocchi was the real me and I was the fictional being? What if she actually became aware of my existence? Did she have the ability to become self-aware?

In all honesty I relate more to Ryo more on the behavior part. There are times that I see how I relate to Bocchi, but I don’t think I have much of a social anxiety more than I just don’t have anything to say to strangers. If I need to speak up then I do, but I’m content with the friends I do have. Love the show though, since it gives insight on social anxiety that I haven’t seen from any other show

I think this is one of the best shows of what living with anxiety in general is like. You think of everything that could go wrong, even if it's the most outlandish thing ever. Even if you muster the courage to do something, you still feel nervous, those dark thoughts plaguing your mind like a tumor. Although Bocchi improves, she's still herself in the end, which I think is perfect. It adds a sense of realism to her character.

Brandon and bocchi the rock made a good point about introverts. It's not that we hate socializing, its just that we lack the abilities required to partake in a small talk conversation or smth like that. In fact I myself am an introvert, but I love talking to my friends and love other people, I just suck at conversing

personally i think the only reason why it became such a popular hit is simply because of how fun the anime is, you can really tell the creativity the animators put in and how much they're all having fun and it translates very well through the show itself, we even get a confirmation the studio literally gave the animators "artistic liberty" as long as the show follows the manga's story

Just finished watching the anime recently and I am related to this as former band member and an all-around instrumentalist. People keep saying that they also wanna have my talent so that they can use it to showcase while me on the other hand had always these some kind of similar anxiety which "bocchi the rock" was spot-on. Where you're doubting yourself but can pull off something incredible on stage. Like "Mask-On/Mask-Off" personality switching whatsoever. This anime is like a masterpiece that gives light to those talented individuals who's also suffering for anxiety and low self-esteem.

Absolutely agree on the jokes not always working in anime!!! Even as a massive SpyxFamily fan myself, the jokes you showed were definitely great examples of what you were talking about! I maybe chuckled a few times during the show, sure, but whenever I read the manga, it’s INFINITELY more hilarious! Comedic timing is such a MAJOR component of humor, and it feels like anime (and also shows in general) just don’t seem to quite get it right, but with the manga, it’s timed to how you envision it to be timed which makes it much funnier bc you likely time it perfectly in your head

What I liked most about Bocchi is that it's a genuine representation of being a musician. I was pretty reserved like Ryo, but threw myself into my guitar like Bocchi did. Same aspirations as Bocchi. What I did on stage was like the way Bocchi did it. So for me, it's a huge nostalgia trip. I'm a lot more confident and outgoing now than I was when I first picked up my guitar. So Bocchi the Rock hit really close to home. Fun fact: Bocchi's family name, Gotoh, is a Japanese brand of guitar parts. Good stuff too. I have a set of Gotoh locking tuners on one of my guitars.
