I have a new Manga to read now. This was a wonderful little series, nice to see a group of girls being good friends, and it was freaking cute. This is another one I'm going to have to keep on hand for future re-watching, 8 / 10.

EP 3.
Because she looks like a delinquent, even kids mistook Nako as one. Its mainly cause she has a rough look on her expressions, Aru calls her out on that and tells her she should smile like her, she does in front of Bocchi before the ep ends.

A show slightly better in concept than in practice, some very interesting characters but overall not too much great moments. Perhaps opposite to Colors which had a bland tbh setting but turned out to be an organic and genuine SOL. This started out very well but got a bit gimmicky towards the end

Still a better than average CGDCT. 5-6/10

A thoroughly enjoyable series. This was quite a refreshing take on crippling social anxiety after the horror that was Tomoko from Watamote. I also loved all the puny names. Thanks, my dude! If we never see you again I hope you make tones of life-long friends in your second and third years too, Bocchi! Although Nako the tease will always be the best friend she made. Everything about this anime was wholesome. Everything except Kai-chan. Fuck Kai-chan still.

It was a good anime, with lovable and cute girls and a lot of funny faces. This was very well made but sometimes gets boring and repetitive so it's 7/10 for me :3

Never thought the episode that would make me laugh so hard many times will be the last one. This is such a cute, funny, and heartwarming series. The journey from getting her first friend to having six was quite entertaining. Though there were cringey and hard to watch scenes that made me skip them a bit. There were lots of laughter but there were some emotional bits as well. As she struggles to make friends while having extreme social anxiety and trying to take on that unrealistic condition that her former friend made was hard to watch. I dislike her for making Bocchi make friends with everyone when she has enough already and made me even more dislike her for giving her the cold shoulder rather than acknowledging her efforts.

I had fun. 8/10

This was a nice and cute series without too much Drama.

I like it. Rate it a 9 out of 10.

___ ___ ___

BTW, about that smartphone at the start of episode... an iPhone, LUL, not even Android.

As for the Ai, I actually never try it on my Samsung s9 except for some Google Assistant (which I don't even use it now...) and I try to deactivate Bixby cause I hate that button... (you used to be able to map the button to another app, but apparently Samsung decide to remove that function... so now you're FORCED to always have Bixby activated)

This is a very very good anime, with a lot of good life lessons to be learned.

We have Bocchi, a girl who at the start of the series is painfully shy, scared, frightened of everyone, to the point that she finds it difficult to say her name in front of a class of her peers...

At the end of the series...Bocchi is still the painfully shy, scared, frightened girl...who now has a bunch of friends, an apprentice, and an opponent (It makes sense in context)..

So, what does this show teach us?

That most of the time, anxiety comes from worrying too much about our imperfections. You don't have to. First off every other girl in this series...IS NOT PERFECT. Nako has issues with being more sociable, and needs to smile more, Aru needs to stop trying to be superperfect., Sotoka and Ojousa are both lonely girls who hide under a facade, and as for Konari...

Yet, these girls form a friendship clique..and the unifying factor is a shy scared girl by the name of Bochi...

All because Bocchi faced her fears about being imperfect, and decided to make friends anyway...imperfections be dammed...so in the process learning more about life, relating with others, etc...

As the good book says...iron sharpeneth iron...

We should all be like Bocchi.

love this, and i agree <3 the key to love and friendship (with others AND yourself) is not letting your "imperfections" keep you from accepting yourself and following your dreams.

this was such a wholesome, comfy, relatable and funny ride, There are so many CGDCT shows out there, but this one has a charm that I can’t quite put my finger on. It has great pacing and all of the jokes are on point, Here's hoping for Season 2, until then I'll be reading the Manga. 8/10 for Me.

Smartphone has joined the friend circle, nothing is too crazy to become Bocchi's friend.
Damn middle school graduates, getting pregnant

Don't know why but I want to see a crossover with Watamote and let Bocchi meet Kuroki Tomoko, that would be one awkward thing to see

Barfing at the first and last episode, the cycle is complete.

Very enjoyable anime. Her first 3 friends (Nako, Aru and Sotoka) are interesting enough that you would make a whole serie with just those three but 29 friends!? (23 if you exclude the ones who are already her friends) It's going to be interesting to see the new classmates in the next seasons. You can do it Bocchi!

lol that show about guessing what Aru would want.. ;p I'd actually want to know, what she actually wanted..
Kako gets different when she's ill, hm.. Well, I would prefer her healthy and being the way she'd like to choose, really.. Whether it to be more or less talkative, or anything..
Why they had to finish like that, though.. ;/ Poor Bocchi..
In the end, I liked anime.. Some episodes more, some less, some characters more, some less.. I think there are a lot of unsolved things left, we were teased about.. Like Sotoka's reasoning to become ninja somehow related to her family.. And Bocchi's friendship with Kai.. In the end.. I hope, girls will live well.. Happiness to Bocchi and girls.. ;P

A sick Kurai-san, seeing off the 3rd years, and starting year 2 with a vomiting Bocchi to end our series. Never change Bocchi. XD Or, well actually, change! That was certainly what this series was all about anyway. And while Kai-chan's ultimatum always rubbed me the wrong way, even when I read the manga, I must admit it was the catalyst for a pretty cute, adorable, and all around enjoyable series. Certainly worthy of a solid 7/10. :)

Show started of soooooo strong, but some things were just so repetitive. The main thing was Aru's unfortunate/zanen joke :( there was also sensei being scared of Nako-chan, Bocchi's barfing, etc. Still enjoyable series as a whole though. And I'm glad Bocchi showed character growth c:

I would likely watch S2.

It's obvious Kai never intended Bocchi to actually succeed at making friends with all classmates. It's like, if you aim for 29, you can achieve atleast 6.5 ( 6+Kurai :D ). Though some scenes were slow and dull, overall it was a cute series.
Also was it just me or the girl with yellow eye patch who kinda stood out many times, i thought she would become one of Bocchi's friends but she was just there ^_^

A heartwarming ending. <3

It was a nice CGDCT, although not one of my favorites.

It's odd that Bocchi's voice actor hasn't done any other roles besides her. She did a great job as Bocchi and deserves to have more roles in the future.

Finally stopped procrastinating and finished this, and it was worth it. A nice little show, not the best but still pretty enjoyable. I agree with some of the people above about the jokes sometimes getting too repetitive but it still being alright regardless. The Aru character song was pretty great too, lol. The whole little cast was generally pretty enjoyable. Probably going to read the manga to completion soon now, seeing as how it finally ended a month ago after so long.

A good wholesome series with a lovable cast of characters (excellent seiyuu's), enjoyable premise, even though the whole situation with Kai-chan and Bocchi is strange and a little forced. Maintained it's quality and humor (for the most part, Aru-chan's unfortunate joke got stale quickly lol). Left me wanting more, 8/10.

That smartphone part was really funny.

Aru looked so disappointed when Bocchi took a picture of her instead of a video.

Nako recording a video of Bochhi was hilarious.

And then Nako got teased by the girls while she was asleep.

Kako has a beautiful smile. No one couldn't believe their eyes when they saw her that happy. Unfortunately, it was only a fever that made her to act like that.

That corsage scene. xD Bocchi and Nako were in a total panic.

Poor teacher is still scared of Nako. :P

And the final dose of Bocchi's reactions.

It's so good to see how many friends Bocchi has already made, and this is only the beginning. She's going to make plenty of more in the future. :)

"Blegh!" A perfect way the end show, haha.

Very good finale. Overall, a little better show than I remembered. I love these girls. <3

Anime of the season right here, as far as I'm concerned. The most wholesome anime I've seen since Mitsuboshi Colors. Simple straightforward story with lovable characters that aren't recycled cliches, genuinely funny comedy, none of the tired "subversive" meta commentary that you see in pretty much every anime these days (making it a cliche in and of itself), and next to no fanservice.
8/10. I hope it gets more seasons.
@Vhailor Only thing i didn't like in this anime tbh is the repetitive use of "Don't call me unfortunate!" With the matching headbutt. It was so overdone throughout the show.

I enjoyed Aru's hilarious unfortunate moments but that repetitive banter between Aru and Nako gets tiring, they should've come up with new jokes while still highlighting Aru's unfortunate moments.
