You're clearly that Chainsaw Man fanboy and Bocchi The Rock hater, so cringe and disgraceful.

Also, you missed the mostly important information about Bocchi The Rock......

Bocchi is very relatable, great characters with distinct personalities. How they express love for the music and band. The funny kits and style are also entertaining, defo something. What I liked the most is the music and how they you camera technique like recording from a sports camera.

Quase morrir de desespero com o inicio, aquele dessicronismo, todas nervosas... quase morro, mas como Nijima disse, a Bocchi foi a heróina da noite, aos poucos ela está evoluido e vai evoluir ainda mais agora Nijima descobriu q a Bocchi é o Guitarhero, tanto em personalidade como em em sua habilidade musical.

Amei como a Bocchi foi sincera sobre oq queria com a banda :).

Good to see Bocchi-chan come out of her shell during the concert, and bounce back.

Finally, the first live performance was held after Kessoku-Band became a four-person system. Last time, Bocchi-chan was able to complete the ticket quota by performing a street live performance, but a typhoon hit the venue on the day of the live, Maybe because I was nervous, I couldn't perform as usual, and the audience who came all the way went home, I was worried about what would happen next. However, the heavy air was overwhelmed by Bocchi-chan's guitar performance. At that moment, Bocchi-chan was undeniably a "guitar hero". And Nijika-chan's real dream and title recovery were done, and I personally thought it was a perfect episode.

Honestly, this is easily one of the peak episodes of this anime. Spectacular humor all the way round, emotional moments, random scenes that fit perfectly, animation being on par just when it both does and doesn't need to be.

The reveal, finally! Not the way I expected it to be, but it was hiding in plain sight, now that I think about it.

Also, ED3? Is this a new trend we should expect in anime from now on?

The fact that the first song played out of sync was perfect and gave it a very realistic feel, I mention it from the perspective of a drummer.

For real. Really appreciated how "naturally" sloppy the first song felt. Made for some serious impact with the 2nd song.

Pretty damn good episode.
