The Yamcha reference made me laugh so hard I started wheezing.

Bocchi waiting on her friends to make the plans is so relatable. Really enjoyed the train scene in particular.

Poor Bocchi, made me think of the meme picture "I just wasted another summer", at least she could experience going out with friends for the 1st time during summer vacations but the beach is too much to handle... you need to pay to take the escalators??? Capitalism really stole everything....

After their last successful concert the summer vacation begins and Bocchi spending almost half her summer only at home playing guitar and watching space videos? damn lol.

Bocchi was thinking about inviting the band to hangout but couldn't find the courage to do so so she ended up not doing it after-all.

Bocchi then totally not on earth starts making graves for cicadas lol, even the manager tells the other girls to say to Bocchi to knock it off. The other girls ask each other if they invited Bocchi to do something this summer and they all stare at each other, thinking that Bocchi would survive on her own which she didn't or barely did, even the manager said to change the bands name lmao.

Now the other girls ask Bocchi to hang out and to do something but Bocchi being unconscious totally doesn't hear what they're saying although she speaks some words though still. The girls recommend to go to the beach at Enoshima so they take the train towards it, also Kita starts screaming in the train out of nowhere where people are literally sitting haha, Ryo even telling Kita to quiet it down.

They arrive at Enoshima and Bocchi finally coming to her senses sees the beach and Ryo is getting an soft salt ice cream? Anyhow Bocchi finally being back to earth sees the beach but gets quickly interrupted by an guy and Bocchi goes back to crazy mode lol to the point of her literally exploding.

Bocchi and the girls finally eat something together and take a nice selfie together as well.

Kita suggests to climb the stairs of the Enoshima Shrine but the other girls are totally against it, meanwhile Bocchi notices an elevator that gets you straight up but it will cost money so Ryo being Ryo goes and offers the cashier guitars lol, but the cashier doesn't accept it so Bocchi ends up paying for it and asks Ryo if she can pay it back the next month since she forgot the last month, bad Ryo :D.

After a while they finally made it to the top of the tower and wow the view for sure is beautiful.

They go back and sit at a bench to enjoy ice creams and ofcourse Bocchi paid for Ryo yet again lol, but that doesn't last long until a bird steals Bocchi's ice cream and Bocchi goes in total shock mode, the birds even continue attacking Bocchi and making fun of her, they literally made an hole in the ground, stupid birds smh, luckily the girls got rid of the birds and they make their last stop at the shrine to wish for things, Bocchi wished for some interesting things which she totally doesn't want to tell XD.

Back on the train to home Nijika & Ryo fall asleep while Kita and Bocchi still talk to each other and luckily Bocchi had an amazing day with an smile that she showed, that's cute. Bocchi tells Kita that she can face school tomorrow and that she's ready for it. The next day. Bocchi having literal pain in her muscles and whatnot and tells her mom that she's not well but her mom thinks that she's lying, even her sister comes and grabs her almost lol.

What an amazing episode.

What's the point of dragging Bocchi out of her room if she still like corpse even when she hangs out with her friends? The other girls still felt way too basic and sort of just there to serve the gag for Bocchi being dead and toyed around. I would rather watch youtube videos the whole day in my room if I were her. The joke about her exaggerated facial expression for being anxious whenever she meets people is very repetitive. Introverts usually don't like being the center of attention and yet here with those facial expressions only to attract more attention? After 9 episodes, Bocchi felt like the one left out and still the same Bocchi. None of the girls ever really contribute anything significant to the showor at least aware to boost Bocchi's mental health to be less anxious. The dynamic between them is not even there. Bocchi always felt like the left-out one despite already has her own group and ends up as the self-gag machine. At least this episode is the most enjoyable one so far. I will keep watching the show if my opinion could change about this show.

Is it me or is Boccih's sister a mean girl in the making? Mini-mean.

Boochi's mom needs to throw out that pink tracksuit! Just seeing it makes me sweat. Glad they took Boochi on a fun day trip.

The new ending is really cute.

some bonding attempt, the team finally goes out with Bocchi in tow.

as expected, it's tough for her, thank goodness the flattened food is delicious. lol

Kita feels like a genuinely nice person on this episode.

and I was annoyed at Ryo trying to pilfer money from Bocchi.

it's nice the trip ended well. Looks like they might be joining as a band at the school fest?

looking forward to next week. :)

Até o episódio de praia de Bocchi The Rock é bem diferente, ela resume bem introvertidos q tentam ter uma vida de extrovertidos, extremamente exagerado, mas resume, mas é um exagero q é divertido, e boa parte disso por causa da Staff e sua incrível criatividade, sinceramente o melhor anime da temporada (superando Chainsaw Man)

Amei a cara da Ryo e da Bocchi, quando ela diz q a Ryo ainda não pagou ela pela primeria vez kkkk, esse episódio foi o mais engraçado até agora, sem dúvidas, e já temos o “próximo show” (q possivelmente será o último) no festival cultural.

Pior q eu senti certa semelhança entre eu e a Bocchi na parte em q ela tá deitada assistindo um vídeo sobre curiosidades do espaço, e sim... eu entendi a referência.

No one could keep up with Kita's "Kit-aura," everyone was literally blinded. Also watching Bocchi climb up the stairs on all fours was hilarious! Bocchi also got bullied an isane amount this episode, those birds though...

Episode relied a bit too much on gags for my taste, but still pretty good. And I guess this was needed after the big events of the past episode, with the concert and all. A change of pace helps to keep things fresh and entertaining.

Next time I head to Wales and see Kites flying around the countryside where I stay, I'm going to run for my life! Poor Bocchi got savaged by those pesky birds after brutally losing her ice-cream to them! XD

Kita was on fire in this episode for me. It was at the last minute, but the group hastily made their choice to hang out at Enoshima during the final day of Summer break and being the extrovert that she is, Kita was enjoying every second of it, although showing signs of annoyance at Nijika and Ryou when they weren't as interested in the scenery and stair climbing as she was. Coming from someone who enjoys the outdoors, I can relate to her frustrations here. =P

Still, they did the right thing to go together and Hitori herself really enjoyed the trip, aside from a few funny setbacks. Seeing her talk to Kita about how much she liked the trip out put a big smile on my face.

This was a nice relaxing episode to watch, although it seems that we might have a school festival approaching for Hitori and Kita's school. I'm looking forward to that!

BOCCHI THE ROCK IS THE DEFINITION OF A FEEL GOOD SHOW.

Episode after Episode, the team handling the show finds a new way to one-up its production and story every time. From visual, to auditory sensory, its an assault of good feelings that never seem to miss.

Bocchi might not escape being a social butterfly but on the flip side, I can't seem to escape the greatness that is this show.

This is a show I definitely love and will stay in my heart as the show that's too good to be true yet it is. There's no guilt, no cringe, no yikes. Just pure joy and fun and greatness. I fucking love this show.

Bocchi is just like me fr. Watching a kurzgesagt video even when I don't understand a single thing just to pass time. This is the loudest we ever heard of Ryou and she sounds so different.

Hanging out with friends and making memories during long holiday is something I wish I had done more in my teen years. But I don't think I could do it like Kita who goes out almost every single day with friends doing outdoor activities. If anything, I don't like climbing up stairs for a beautiful view on top of a mountain so I get how the girls feel lol. But beach is fine. I like playing in beach.

Thanks to the manager, Bocchi has made wonderful memories with her bandmates; ones she will never forget.

This anime is super good. Anime of the year. I was going to give it to Summertime Render but this exceeds that.

The worst episode so far. felt like they invited her to hang out purely out of pity, all these bs excuses... when you want to hang out with a friend, you just...idk... actually do that maybe? instead of thinking some horseshit like "I'm sure she got asked to hang out by someone else already". i mean yeah we are supposed to heal and find strength within ourselves instead of being dependent on others... but the previous episodes really made it look like they cared about her yet now they evidently are just pitying her. Kita's "I'll make sure to talk to her at school" is so sad too. it's not "I will talk to her because I want to", it's "I'll talk to her because no one else would"
and the way Ryou's always out of money and never pays back despite being rich is not funny at all, it's annoying. and she lends money from Bocchi, a person who she knows the least and to whom it's the most nerve-racking experience because she's so anxious to ask her to pay it back. it's edging bullying in my opinion.
also the way Bocchi was attacked by birds was not funny
also her low standarts are so sad. they what, rode to the beach, ate ice cream and climbed the stairs? that's like fucking nothing and it's extremely depressing that to Bocchi it was out of this world experience.

Fun filler episode. Kinda funny how Hitori insists on keeping the tracksuit, yet the others seems to change outfits on every episode.

The procrastination scene hit me quite hard... Glad I'm getting over that.

it hurts to watch bocchi waste her summer vacation like that. well at least she was able to make so memories with others so that's nice.

the party animal part got me good, couldn't stop laughing.

great episode as usual. 5/5.

The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.
Feeling half happy, half sad.

My friend told me in advance that this episode was filler-y and like it definitely is, but this is totally how filler episodes should be done. Fun, well-animated, didn't seem low effort at all, a quick episode to both hang out with each character and get to know them a little bit more while also hinting at what's to come. Good episode!
