Gween_Gween said: I loved how they gave more spotlight to Ryo in this episode, the character is just too authentic. So the animation directors a massive fan of Oasis, eh? Hopefully there wont be any fights. |
Only four episodes in and this is starting to be one of my favorite animes. Bocchi's weekly delusions and strokes are always so hilarious to watch, and the production of each episode is amazing. |
 |
| if it continues like this it's probably my favorite anime of the last 5 years along with Mob Psycho seasons 2-3, Sonny boy and Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu remake. |
| The formation of the Kessoku Band by taking photoshoots and forming a lyric. Ryo while having a conversation with Bocchi inside a cafe, suggest her to make lyrics that doesn't sound generic but stays true with her own heart <3 |

| I just love this show. My AOTS. I usually don't like overly-happy and bright characters but Kita is done so well and realistic. Bocchi and Kita tandem is great. Time cover and transcribe every song from this show. I'm a Jazz bass guy, but I'll buy a Precision just because of Ryo. |
| "I know a good exorcist' LMAO she put the photo all around her room as wallpaper... bruhh |
 |
| Oh wow that ending. The "Bocchi no!" moment after all that heartfelt development was glorious. I also really like the sliding scale of over the top comedy to genuine introversion. It's good that we can have subtle touches like Bocchi taking extra sips of water to avoid eye contact next to the full on seizures. |
| Bocchi being Bocchi XD Her expression when they suggested her to open a social media account. She filled every corner of her bedroom with the band's photo. |
 |
| Dang, Bocchi looked like she went full cyberpsycho this episode. XD Here freak outs are one of a kind in a very hilarious way. Loving this anime. Though, I do kinda wish there was actually more music. |
| I am become bunny, fluffing of worlds. |
| the idea of making an account cause Bocchi to have seizures. her mom even think she is possessed. xD and wtf, why does her room now look like the room of a psychopath? lol anyway, Ryo talk with Bocchi to compose the music that Bocchi likes instead of going mainstream had a good effect. looking forward to their song next week. :) 5/5 |
| It would have been the icing on the cake if they did the Weezer pose for one of the band photos, I woulda given the show a 10/10 no matter what happened next. |
| that laugh at the end XD |
 |
| It was great! I don't know how but Bocchi The Rock has superior animation and production quality, thanks to CloverWorks <3 For story, I really liked how they showed Ryu's past and It made a nice thought to Bocchi. I'm curious how'll be depressive songs with Kita lyrics. Addition; new ED is great, check it out! |

| Man, I just love this series. |
| This episode felt very special in terms of cohesion betwen the girls as everyone showed their unique life approach. Nijika is a true lead arranger, Kita is a baby face of the band, Ryo is the wisdom and confidence of it and Hitori being Hitori when in touch with the socitey which is always a vicious fight inside herself. I was dying of laughter when Kita proposed Hitori to have her personal photo account which resulted in a brilliant Godzilla-like drawing sequence. All in all it was a breakthrough for the band and I believe that all the viewers felt it by the heart. |
 |
| It's nice seeing that Bocchi was encouraged to write lyrics that are more like her, really looking forward to the song being played! |
 |
| "Are ya winning, Diners?" Bocchi is just too good at making me laugh so much! XD This episode was a nice showcase of how insane the visual direction goes when it comes to Bocchi. From the normal panicking faces to expressions that were so random that it made it even funnier. Not only that, but Ryo mentioning about anime having a group jump in their OPs being god-tier was a nice reference to the Kirara Jump. Speaking of Ryo, I enjoyed her chat with Bocchi at the fancy cafe. You can understand as to why she quit her previous band since they went for a more commercial and generic song direction rather than keeping the style that they had, which is what she wanted Bocchi to keep in mind when it came to the lyrics of their first song as a band. It makes me like Nijika even more than ever now since she was able to convince Ryo to join her and play as a band again. =) Overall, this series is standing firm in a season packed with heavy-hitting sequels and a certain chainsaw juggernaut. So far, it's been a blast and I commend CloverWorks for the production values that they've put into this series. I also like the new ED song, too. |
| man I haven’t added a show to my favorites in quite a long while, but this might end up on there |
 |
| Found a treasure here. Literal gold. |
 |
| It is clear as Kita-chan that this anime has now touched the hearts and emotions of the ones who has watched it. The love this series has, the expressive animation, the details to the small bits and dialogues along with the crazy expressions is next to nothing I've seen from a CGDCT, they are literally not afraid to make Bocchi look as weird and adorable with her reactions. I friggin love the jokes and the songs! this is such a treat before the year ends, |
  |
| That end scene xD so hilarious and creepy at the same time. Honestly though, this series is absolutely brilliant. Kudos to everyone involved in making it. |
 |
Absolutely. I loved that moment, it was so great. |
| We got a more serious moment in this episode. This time we dive deeper into Bocchi's and Ryou's 'real' characters. It turns out Ryou is a level headed and perceptive person beneath her usual jokes and pranks. And we see Bocchi is a little too excited about her first group picture to the point she covered her entire room with it. PS. Can anyone make a gif where Bocchi is shaking her head right and left at the beginning of the episode? Highly appreciated.  |

| The way she laughed at the end "eheheheheh" |
 |
| as always this anime is too relateable and that laugh at the end.. |
 |
| Bocchi glitching out on the floor is iconic. |
