to be frank, according to public reviews this should’ve been way worse than it actually was.
adapting a visual novel is never an easy task to do, especially when the plot itself is fairly complex, like in this case.
on a purely technical standpoint the animations were good, the soundtrack had absolutely no business in going this hard, both in game and in anime but for my taste, reducing it to 12 episodes is kinda meh.
thoroughly enjoyed the weird camera angles, never leaving any obvious shots at anything, as well as the color palette selection, truly gives a sense of ominousness.

To be frank, as a musician and sound engineering student myself, into this mainly because of the CGDCT format, which i’m an avid consumer of, but i was pleasantly surprised by the sheer amount of detail put into every single frame of this work (well we’re talking about cloverworks, theyre known for visual details) but i really enjoyed my time watching bocchi.
lots of people compere this to k-on, and i gotta admit aside from the fact that both are about high school bands, they’re actually quite dissimilar, but if i had to chose one, i’d chose k-on, maybe it’s because it’s practically a must watch ... |
