Speaking of Bocchi stuff selling good, the album is #1 on the Billboard Japan download charts https://www.billboard-japan.com/charts/detail?a=dlalbums&year=2023&month=01&day=02

Is there a pun between "Bocchi", "Hitori" or "Gotoh" and "Zock"? Edit: Bocchi za Rock > Bocchi Zock; duh!

Album is #1 on the download charts. Does this happen often for animes that aren't made to sell rhythm games? https://www.billboard-japan.com/charts/detail?a=dlalbums&year=2023&month=01&day=02

Is there an IRL band that’s recording as Kessoku Band or is this a one-off deal made for the show?
|
# ? Jan 1, 2023 16:18 |
|
its just for the show, yeah, though i think they got some actual j-rock musicians to write some of the songs

It's possible that the line up they got to perform as "Kessoku Band" will perform under that name in future though, since it's happened for various Macross musicians at the very least. While Mari Iijima, the voice of Minmay in SDF Macross is perhaps the most obvious comparison, since she's performed as Minmay occasionally in the past, she's also tried to distance herself from the role because she resented how much fans associated her with that one role and nothing else, so Yoshiki Fukuyama, the singing voice and guitarist for Macross 7's Nekki Basara is probably a better comparison. A real life line band was made up for the show, with Fukuyama, then a relative unknown, on lead vocals and playing lead guitar and the show was really successful when it aired in 1994/95. Fukuyama went on to form JAM Project in 2003, who he still performs with, but he and the other band members for "Fire Bomber" have continued making the occasional album under the name "Fire Bomber" with the last release being in 2009; an album which Wikipedia notes had 10 original songs on it along with re-recordings of popular songs. They were still doing occasional concerts as of January last year (as in, 2022, not 2021; for clarity) though, so it's entirely possible they'll release another album at some point.

Manga chapter 33, in which Kita has a sleepover at Bocchi's place. The scanlation's currently 12 chapters ahead of where the anime left off, chapter 21.

Been really just spending the day chilling and listening to the album on spotify and i really just like how good kessoku band is. Like yeah they are all professionals IRL and bocchi is literally Aimer's guitarist, but I'm just glad they went that route to show just how good bocchi really is despite being a disaster person. Aniplex really went all out on the music and it just is really top of the line J-rock all around. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6wAQRxcLUeE

Something that struck me about Bocchi that I haven't gotten from quite a few other musical anime is that when the plot calls for part of a musical performance to really impress the audience, I genuinely really enjoy and feel wowed by the music. The soundtrack is just really catchy, and I've gone back to rewatch some of the musical sequences multiple times so that I could experience it again. I never got that from Carol and Tuesday, or Ya Boy Kongming.

someone jumped 30 chapters ahead to post this side-story about the ijichi sisters. no spoiler content, it all takes place in the past.

I remember Fukumenkei Noise getting Narasaki from Coaltar of the Deepers to work on the soundtrack and thought it was good but the show itself was kind of a mess. Bocchi managed to nail both parts and I think that's why it's been such a success.

Ya boy was fine for me in this aspect because the stakes were so low and the songs were good enough, Carol and Tuesday was really the one where I had to super suspend my disbelief that the loneliest girl in the world singers were going to bring about world peace. Bocchi of course blew them both away, but I would say in fairness that's just easier for J-Rock to do than a pop focused track in general. E: just remembered Vivy also ruled so I guess that throws my J-Rock supremacy idea into a satellite Yawgmoft fucked around with this message at 22:23 on Jan 2, 2023 |

Also it's worth nothing that the escapades of this pink haired slug girl got me to pick up guitar again, and no other music anime came even close to doing that for me.

the songs in bang dream are often pretty decent but theyre really overproduced for high school bands. bocchis music isnt only good its also something the cast could believably be playing

# ? Jan 3, 2023 13:13 |

some of them really take advantage of having established that bocchi can shred it though, if 'to be a constellation' was in k-on i would have called bs, that lead guitar part is nuts

# ? Jan 3, 2023 16:21 |

the aniplex channel has videos of the guitar parts of the songs up which is interesting to see it actually being played. I advise watching through all of this one especially https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6wAQRxcLUeE

Respect to that dude for actually cutting the string.

# ? Jan 3, 2023 17:01 |

bocchi's lucky that all happened in the band's nascency or else otherwise she'd be expected to sacrifice a string or two and bust out the sake slide at every show

I never got that from Carol and Tuesday, or Ya Boy Kongming. I really liked how when they were supposed to sound a bit lovely (the rehearsal and the opening of their first show) they managed to make it sound exactly like a kind of lame teenage band. It was that exact sweet spot where it wasn't unlistenable but it was clearly a bit off, which was kind of impressive in its own way. Also binged this in two days, good show.

I watched eight episodes and I like it but I'm not as enamoured with it as some of you seem to be. Other than the occasional gag it doesn't feel that original. Also I'm just so extremely sick of the highschool setting. Would've been fun if everyone were adults but that's not allowed in this genre.

Don't they spend like 90% of their time outside of school?

I think Bocchi would be like, 150% more depressing if they were all adults and it would throw out the vibe balance that the creators were going for.
|
# ? Jan 7, 2023 09:38 |

also the highschool setting exists primarily so multiple characters can go 'i mean this seems important now but none of these high school anxieties will matter in 5 years.' thats like an actual thematic point. PA-san just mentions she dropped out once and the conversation moves on completely.

I liked the bit with SICK HACK and kind of hope there is more of that interaction with other bands and the music biz in any second season. Maybe the manga readers know more but I kind of hope there is less school stuff once the culture festival business is out of the way?
