I watched episode 5 and though the song they played was really good. I’m especially a sucker for moments when the music kicks into high gear when a character makes a heartfelt declaration, and Bocchi taking that step to really shred it, which reaches the other girls so they kick it up a notch too was rock

Theres a really strong little detail there. When bocchi starts going harder ryo glances back at nijika, nijika nods, and only then does ryo start backing bocchi up. Its a really good visual way of getting across that nijika and ryo have been playing together a while.

my suspension of disbelief is a little stretched by kita getting that good at guitar in like two weeks, even if she's just playing power chords, but w/e show kicks rear end

the amount of time that has passed between episodes is pretty vague honestly, kita's so integrated into the group that it could have been a month or two.

By the way, I know vtuber poo poo is verboten, but is anyone else totally parsing this show as the "Rosemi Lovelock joins a rock band" show? Because it fits perfectly.

SgtSteel91 posted:Bocchi imagining herself drunk got a little too real Yeah, that was rough to watch... Then again I'm firmly of the opinion that a comedy story knowing when to get serious is an extremely rare and valuable trait. See also Bocchi's magazine neighbor in Machikado Mazoku which wouldn't be half as excellent as it is if it didn't know when and how to transition into actually heavy subject matter. Relatedly the other really strong scene in the episode to me is the other girls in Kesshoku Band being totally serious about Bocchi and her problems and wondering if they put too much pressure on her to sell tickets. There's that old chestnut about laughing at versus laughing with someone, and while Bocchi's hangups are often the focus of jokes the series so far has done a really good job consistently sympathizing with her and getting across her problems non-judgmentally and showing her progress fairly realistically. So not only is the show really funny and really stylish, it's actually very well written.

Yeah, I really liked that Kita talked about Bocchi at their school, how she tries to invite Bocchi to hang out with her at lunch,Bocchi isn’t being bullied and, at best, the students in Bocchi’s class are just as awkward as she is and just don’t know how to approach her.

This show remains a treasure. Every little step Bocchi takes feels earned. She is growing up and learning to deal with her social anxiety and it's hard not to root for her. Even if the lessons are now coming from a disturbing alcoholic hobo lady.

speaking of the show mostly being nice to bocchi, it isnt the biggest deal but i think they overdid her parents being mean to her a bit. still ends in a positive spot for her so not the biggest deal in the world but they could have cut one or two lines imo Endorph fucked around with this message at 20:30 on Nov 19, 2022 |

Well it wasn't in a row, but I still cannot believe Bocchi-chan is loving dead for the third time. Also I cannot remember the last time I laughed as hard at ANYTHING than I did at the makeover scene.

this show rules, it could've easily just been hitoribocchi with guitars or k-on with social anxiety, but the level of character and creativity on display every week makes it so much more. you love to see it.

I love this loving show but there might be such a thing as being too relatable. Getting pelted with a barrage of traumatic high school flashbacks to the point I end every episode battered and bruised

This show is astonishingly good. That entire makeover scene was masterful. Her family being rude, especially her sister. And oh man the start of the episode was sublime, seeing Bocchi just standing there waiting for her friends and the building dread cause you know something cringeworthy is right around the corner and oh man, it's just great

Oddly I've had the opposite experience, the first two episodes were a little bit rough for me in terms of lingering cringe and in terms of how they were using the heroine, but I believe that since then the show has improved its pacing and more importantly started moving its characters. Also her parents, woof. I have had so many experiences with my parents utterly crushing me without even realizing it. Bocchi's folks are a little exaggerated, but honestly not by much…
