Watch episode 12 here! got.cr/cc-btr12

What's more amazing is the fact they actually released a full album titled "Kessoku band" the day after the final epsiode aired. This masterpiece of an anime really delivered a 14-song album for the fans so they dont feel sad about the anime ending. That's what I call Anime of The Year.

Looking forward to season 2. Bocchi is too popular to end with one season.

Reminder that Bocchi wrote these lyrics. She went from writing about loneliness and inner turmoil with their first two performances to gratitude and admiration (or love for BoKita fans) with these last two songs.

1:17 The little head nod was animated so well. They animated the character acting in this show so damn well.

this anime gave us so many good songs.

I like the detail of Bocchi playing with her head down, not looking at the crowd. Really sells how nervous and self conscious she is. She's contracting on the music not the crowd.

Even though I'm a big fan of Bocchi I must say this performance was carried by Kita. She really is the perfect foil for Bocchi.

There is no way they won't make a season 2 of this considering the succes of this anime in Japan and overseas. They sold out all album cd's and blu-ray dvds so the support is there.

I'm interested in what happens when Bocchi's UKposts fans start to realize she's in a band and start buying tickets to their show. Will Bocchi let the fame go to her head, lol? She has been working so hard in the background, improving her guitar skills literally in a dark closet. It will be nice to see a little light shine on her hard work and talent.

I will be rewatching this show for years to come..... how i miss it already

The head tilt at 1:17 is just so perfect!

I was confused in the first couple of seconds because Bocchi's guitar sounded different. Then I realized that at 0:10, Bocchi steps on the foot pedal below (which is out of frame) to switch the sound her guitar makes. The attention to detail for something that's out of frame!

From a hidden gem to one of the best animes of the year. Hoping Cloverworks announces season 2 asap 🙏

2:00 to 2:06 seems like Kita makes eye contact with those 3 girls in the audience and winks LOL. killing em with that lead singer rizz

I had not watched anime for a good few months, I didn't have any animation for it, but after seeing a scene from Bocchi the rock (the scene that Bocchi turned in 3d) I decided to watch it. And I don't understand why, but my eyes watered a little in the last episode, with joy. One of best anime of 2022 (sorry for my poor grammar, english is not my native language)

If Bocchi was made to shine in "f I Can Be A Constellation" then Kita-ura is so strong in this song. The lil claps she did to hype everyone at the start 0:02, them head bops at 0:47, 1:18 and 2:00, the eye movement at 1:50, and that wink at the end 2:05. THE KITA~N IS TOO STRONG!

I absolutely love this song, it has such a care free early 2000s pop punk vibe. Kita totally steals the show in it too

0:07 Good guy Dad with his camcorder. Always nice to have someone in the audience actually recording the performance.

Bocchi the GOAT

This song made me change my oppinion from "Bocchi The Rock was kinda fun" to "I actually loved this and want more" single-handedly.

I just love Kita's and Bocchi's relationship. I love how they are totally opposite from each other and yet Kita admires Bocchi and respects her ❤️

Love how they animated the guitar soloing so closely at 1:25, but then gave up as soon as the guitarist started sweep picking. "You want me to animate THAT? Have you ever tried drawing hands before?!"

That clapping animation is so satisfying. Also the head tilts. It's the little things that they do, it's so good

I will say, Ryo was right. After listening to and reading all the lyrics for the songs they have played, it IS kinda funny having a "normie" like Kita sing these lyrics so cheerily. She has a great voice that really fits their group's vibes!

Remember the advice Nijika's sister gave the band? I love how Kita has learned to look at the audience while Bocchi will still look down to concentrate on her playing. It shows how the characters are really stoic in their own ways and shows their personalities through their growths.

We will never forget the masterpiece that is Bocchi the Rock!

thats amazing detail that they animated the head bop every time even when you see her head on the side

W story W comedy W characters W art W animations W staff W music W anime W everything, this show was easily my top anime of 2022 and top anime in a looong time to be honest

She really did it. She bocchi the rocked all over.

As a regular performer, I wouldn't be able to come up with something like what she did because of severe panic mode, and just ultimately accept my fate until the band ends.

I cried 3 times during this episode alone. Truly one of the greatest slice of life anime of all time.

This anime is so detailed that the volume of the second voice is increased in this version versus the studio version to match with the fact that you can see Ryo singing some parts.

I love how the moment with more views in the video was Ikuyo saying "So many times before I die someday..." Ryo knew since her first peronal talk with Hitori

She is guitar hero. One day she'll beat the devil in a guitar battle that will require her to work the ocassional broken string, broken whammy bar, becoming suddenly left handed and doing all of those things to the devil too.

“The test asks ‘what was the author feeling here?’ … well how the hell should I know?” I really feel these lyrics honestly

All theses songs give me chills man

the characters movement looks so smooth!

Kita has really had a great development after Gotou, she has been the one who has cared for her the most and supported her from the beginning, besides that she has been a fundamental piece for the development of Gotou. I love Kita.

This Show's animation showed the dedication of team behind it. Every Episode i was able to feel the Passion of them

While I was watching it I realized that Bocchi wrote the lyrics, and her growth really made me happy

1:15 favourite part, and I love how for this episode their performance was the intro opening. Such a good idea wow👌

I am going to miss Bocchi.

The moment I saw that title my first thought was Asian Kung Fu Generation. Best cover ever!

Ryou was right. It is kinda funny seeing Kita sing those type of lyrics.

“If I could be a constellation” also gives real feels

This is undoubtedly one of the best anime that we had ever gotten in 2022. If Bocchi does not get a second season, I say we should riot.

What a wonderful way to end off the first season. I know there's a song after this, but this has more "send off" vibes while that one has more "overcome obstacles" vibes. The nostalgic and impactful lyrics, the catchy and soulful melody, combines with the still shots of the everyday places we can never go back to again. The ordinary life and days we'll look back on fondly, knowing they're out of reach forever. And they subtly show everyone being affected by the performance. Manager is looking on with a slight smile, knowing they're gonna crush it. Bocchi dad is crying, seeing his loner kid moving out of her shell and following a dream he once had. An audience member's eyes suddenly lights up as the song hits her hard. Bocchi herself makes a slight but significant perk at the crowd. And of course, Kita's clapping and head bopping and winking bring so much energy to the performance. They've really outdone themselves with this music and animation. That they have all original music and performances and they're freaking fantastic really shows how much love they put into this. They deserve all the accolades they'll get. I hope we can get a season two that has the same amount of love and care.

That little head shake. God I love this show so much. Even if I wanted to, I could never fight the smile on my face watching this. Not a chance.

Bocchi the Rock is now one of my all time favorite anime. The production team was amazing and showed lots of love for this anime. Hoping for a season 2!

Really hope this show gets the season 2 treatment it deserves. Cannot stress enough, how much we loved this series

2:07 that band synergy

It'd be epic if the songs from this anime was used as official Openings and Endings for future animes.

I LOVE THEM SO MUCH

Ahhhh Bocchi's experiences as a budding musician and her anxiety of performing on stage are extremely relatable for me. Especially the school festival, cause it reminds me of when my buddies and I performed for our high school talent show. The pressure of your peers in the crowd. That moment where you work up the courage to look up from your guitar and the wood paneled floor to glance at their reactions. I've shed a tear or two watching through this series for sure.

This is my anime of the year

0:34 -- each member of the band keeps their rhythm in a diff way via the headbob/swaying. the animation in this show is by the best ive seen in awhile. made me smile so many times, with great humor and artwork!

This show came out of nowhere and blew my expectations away!

i cried reading back the lyrics, oh my god. i dont even know why.

1:03 Always gets me VERY emotional when I see it. They've come so far in so short a time, but Bocchi has spent 3 YEARS, 6 hours a day, practicing for this moment. Where people will like and respect her. And we see it in this one moment as a random girl from her school enthusiastically calls over her friend to go watch Bocchi (and band) play on stage. But my favourite parts are 1:15 (most replayed part, so you all agree :p), 1:58 and 2:05. Kita is sooooo cute!

This Anime was rly the greatest suprise of the season

Finally. This was the only song I couldn't find posted anywhere and if I wanted to listen to it, I had to open episode 12 and rewind each time. If I could be a Constellation (the 2nd one they play) is a really good song as well but something about this song makes me want to put it on loop and just listen to it over and over again.

I could see myself pausing the anime to see what fret they are playing at when transcribing the song. Must be amazed at the level of details.

What a great ending, Kita really improved

I stayed up until 3 AM binging the anime in a day bc I got so hooked and I needed to see Bocchi show off her skills in the last episode, I’m so glad I saw this video as well. I needed to listen to the song again, I definitely will never forget.

One of the best Cute Girls Doing Cute Things I’ve ever watched,the directing and comedic timing of this show was beyond everything I could ever expect!

one of my favorite songs atm. i love the vibe it gives

The characters, comedy, animation, and even songs of this show are perfect! This show is no doubt a 10/10 imo!

Why is this so similiar to fuwa fuwa

We will indeed not forget :). Looking forward to s2

The animation so GOOD and the music just hits DIFFERENT! “I will never forget” this show 🗣️🔥🔥🔥💯

I love the band composition. The happy frontman looking directly into the audience, the gloomy introverts on either side and the energetic drummer in the back!

This is in my top 3 fav anime of all time. Love Bocchi!

Ah yes, slide guitar. There are dedicated guitar slides that you put on your pinkie finger but you could do it with everything from shot glasses to small jars.

Having just finished the season, and knowing I'm really late to the hype, I'm still really looking forward to season 2!!!

❤ wish we get the second season as soon as possible

I still can’t believe how good the idea of having this cheerful out going girl sing depressing lyrics. 👏🏽👏🏽

bocchis animation goes crazy hard for no reason

I really miss this anime already. I hope they make a second season

I just love how supportive her family is.

Man this has that nostalgic early 00s rock vibe 🔥

I need like 27 more seasons of this series, animation is god, comedy is god, music is god and bocchi THE GOD

The lyrics are amazing

What I didn’t realize the first time I watched this is when they clip to around the empty school. At first I was like yea it’s just to show Bocchis memories, not only that though it also shows that Bocchi is finally getting popular, getting attention. For the first time. You can see this because Bocchis class still has the butler cafe poster showing that kessoku band, is sold out. You can further confirm it with people that were previously not watching the bands enter the gym just to watch them. It’s a small but such an important detail.

i absolutly love how comfortable bocchi looks and is smiling, ryo's subtle bobbing, kita's eyes floating over to bocchi and nijika just killing it watching everyone.

Just finished watching yesterday. Hope a season 2 come. Love Bocchi.

Funny how clover works probably threw this into the roster as an afterthought and now it has one of the most dedicated fanbase in the industry XDD

1:15 Nankaidatte

The way they use the lighting on kita's face to show when she's still looking down at her guitar but getting more comfortable looking forward. Would have been hard to show otherwise but the lights do it so well

Can’t wait for season 2 of Bocchi

People clearly don’t know how bands work. They all come together, it’s not carried by any single member. They are all slaying it. Let’s give nijika props as well, drums are pretty hard to master

Bocchi was the best thing to end 2022 with. Such a phenomenal anime. Can't wait for season 2.

What i love of this song, is that on technical abilities, Bocchi’s part is one of the more complex and hardest to play between all the kessoku’s songs at date, but you can miss it because of the performance of Kita…and i think is intended.

MUST. HAVE. SEASON. 2.

" This anime was one of the biggest surprises in 2022 "

that riff on 1:32 was just so perfect

super amazing underrated underappreciated anime. great job bocchi!

I just finished Bocchi the Rock today. I'll miss this show. It sure had a lot of heart, and I related a lot as someone with insane social anxiety in middle and high school who's come out of his shell in more recent years. The music was fantastic, and I loved all of the different animation styles and references.

Waiting for season 2 announcement.

I really do love the lyrics lol
