| One of the best episodes so far! |
  |
| This was a really good episode for Bocchi. Showing us just how much she cares about the band, and is evening willing to put herself out there in order for them to have a better chance. Loved the conversations that were happening in the bar after their performance. Another wholesome episode to add to the series. |
 |
| Glad Bocchi started shredding on the second song after they all "lost confidence" and flubbed the first song. That other girl drunk spewing alcohol at her fans, rofl! |
 |
| While the typhoon is still ongoing, some of Bocchi's fans and other guests showed up, I'm glad they still found some people for their performance, although the 1st song didn't go as planned and they were offbeat, they still went on with it. Bocchi didn't want to end it there so she went full out rock mode with the 2nd song, all by herself she started playing the guitar and putting the sound in order and then she rocked away and the others followed along, finally the people looked up on the band while not staring at their phones, even the manager was surprised to see such an performance. After the show the manager treated them to drinks and food, it was all fun while 2 men sat there drinking their lives away and it seemed all depressing, I hope that man will be alright, anyhow Bocchi then decides to go outside and sees Nijika and they talk for a while and after its done Nijika calls Bocchi "Bocchi The Rock", Bocchi ofcourse being surprised and says that she'll do her best to make Kessoku Band big and famous in the future! What an rocking episode. 🎸 |

| is that blue monarch pedal bocchi use at second song ? awesome |
 |
| this show is such a roller coaster lol can go from wholesome to depressive in a matter of seconds, to being cute and funny again it was great to see bocchi muster the courage to make sure they werent gonna flop hard during the live concert they really conveyed well how much of a wreck they were during the first song with kita-chan's voice being a bit shakey and how they didnt seem to be in sync. |
 |
| What an incredible episode. Nijika is really the best character isn't she? Her kind is usual the comedic relief but she is so sweet that it really makes her stand out to the point she outshines everyone. Even our MC. Love the 2 sisters and really loving the anime so far. Also, she said it!! she said Bocchi The Rock! |

 |
| Everyone just seems so used to Hitori's random panics lol. Kita's Kit-aura moments were just as hilarious to watch along with her panic attacks too! I can't believe we are already on the 8th episode. Its going to be over so soon:( I want a second season but I think it would be better in a way if it had one seaon instead. |
 |
| I like the first song on episode 5, but Bocchi got a little bit character development on this episode and what a great episode and amazing song. I hope they're gonna give us a lot more song. |

| Holy shit when bocchi went off on her own mid concert I got goosebumps, and then the rest of the band followed that wave and went off, had the whole club turnt. That bit at the beginning of that whole sequence when it cut to the purple hair drunk chick and she smirked and the bocchi proceeded to go off sent a chill down my spine🤩💥 |
| clannad is the greatest piece of fiction to ever exist. |
| Loved it! What's not to love?? In many ways the finale feels closer than it really is. Bocchi and the gang have come so far in these eight eps. This was a huge high point for the season, no doubt about it, setting the build-up to the end. Not gonna lie, I look back to the first episode, my impressions and expectations, and I have to admit I did not expect to be so pleasantly surprised by this series. Yet another reminder to give future anime a chance despite knee-jerk first impressions. |
| woah this episode is amazing. I literally cried and laughed at the same time. |
 |
| That audience DID NOT DESERVE THEM!! Except for those two girls who were actually paying attention and not just on their phones pretending to be cool. Love how supportive they are! One day, when Kessoku Band makes it big, those girls can say they were their first #1 fans!

My jaw actually dropped! I enjoy seeing Hitori's growth. It would be cringy if she stayed the same as she was in the first episode forever, but that's not the case. She still has her moments where she dissociates and goes off in her own head, but she's really making an effort to come out of her shell. I love that for her!! This is well-written character development. And also, it's good that the other girls accept her the way she is even though she's a super anxious person. Man, though, those salarymen's conversation in the izakaya... I thought they weren't actually there and that was just a figment of Bocchi's imagination. That was so sad lol Btw, in Japan do they not check that everyone seated at the table is old enough to drink? This week's episode of Chainsaw Man was making me wonder the same thing lol |
| I LOVE BOCCHI, I LOVE THE REFERENCES, I LOVE THE HYPE, I LOVE THE MUSIC, I LOVE THISSSSSS, BOCCHI THE GOD!!!!! |
| How the fck is a SoL CGDCT doing this to me, this ep is by far the best in terms of story telling and directing by far, I felt bad for them at first cause they were botching the hell out of their first song and those 2 girls saying “knew we shouldnt have come early” I swear if Bocchi didnt snap they would have fumbled hard. Its amazing how you know Bocchi’s character is this shy girl who fckin stepped forward and owned the show with her solo play, you cant just help but feel proud for her, it is so fun seeing her character develop slowly and break out of her shell. The animators really went ham with Bocchi’s movements, every nook and cranny of her performance from the moment she snapped and solo played until the last part of their 2nd song showed so much emotion, Nijika’s sister having that big ass smug on her face like “yeah, those are my girls right there” Nijika’s backstory and her actual dream being revealed lowkey made me emotional, and she just killed me the moment she told Bocchi she’s “guitarhero” and that whenever they were in a pinch she suddenly breaks in and saves them like an actual “hero”, which she truly was in this ep, she rocked on and was the band’s hero. And that Nijika title drop! If MP100S3 wasnt airing this year, this would have been an easy AOTY and EOTY for me. Lets go Bocchi!! You truly are the main star of this series!! Show us more of your Rock! BOCCHI!! YOU ROCK!! BOCCHI THE ROCK!!!!!! |

| SHE SAID THE THING OMGGGG |
| Can't get enough of it! Everything has been on point. The humour, the drama, the soundtrack, the characters. This episode was amazing and as soon as I watch one episode I'm already starving for more. |
 |
| Blend S has it too. |
| easily the best episode till now. freaking amazing. it made me so happy to see bocchi's fans and the drunk girl come for bocchi. this was a very emotionally powerful episode for me. i cried once and was in tears 2 times during this episode. bocchi was amaing during that second song. seeing her everyone else started feeling confident too and the song came out great so did the concert at the end. the kit-aura part got me. kita's name though haha, the oun really got me. that was quite an unexpected drop that nijika found out about bocchi. nijika seemed pretty cool about it, i wonder how the rest of them will react to the news. nijika's backstory and the back story to how STARRY came to be was very nice. this anime just keeps on getting better. can't wait to watch next episode. |
 The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama. Feeling half happy, half sad. Kawaii waifus and precious best girls <3333 |
