Bocchi is so cute.

I like what I see so far. Just a simple anime showing her school life with good amount of lighthearted humor. Lol Bocchi. Happy to see Sunao too!

For Bocchi/Katsuwo fans, we've come this far. Congrats.

This adaptation is actually more graceful than the manga. Rather than looking like moeblob-comedy like in the manga, this adaptation gave me more shoujo vibes. It felt like less of a comedy but more of a SoL. Either way works though, since Katsuwo works are always super wholesome.

Looking forward to Aru next week/fortnight, the biggest loser of the franchise.

Ok, Friday is officially the day for cute female leads.

Really laid back series and the fact that the comedy isn't overdone works better for me in this case.

I love it, loved the manga, love the anime. It's cute and funny and relatable as I'm also a socially awkward woman with few friends.

A show doesn't have to be unique or special to make you smile. I couldn't help but smile the entire time. Bocchi is pretty aloof and I can see why some may not like her over exaggerations, but I take it with a grain of salt, she's fresh out of elementary school, and I'm sure most of us can relate to growing out of our shell. So yes, Bocchi might be slightly retarded, her initial plans were pretty suspect, but that's why I already love her. Cant wait to see more

Art and Animation is nice, i like the character designs. Its nothing special at this time but episode one gave me some laughs so Ill keep on it. Curious about Nako and Senseis relationship. Siblings maybe? or maybe Sensei is just terrified of Nakos looks lol.

If you don't like Bocchi at her Barf,
you don't deserve her wholesomeness.

I have a high anticipation for this anime and so far the first episode is pretty well recieved.

Incase you didn't knew; the voice actor that's voicing Bocchi it's her very first debut and I think she's doing a fine job already!

Looking forward for next week.

I know this more of a comedy but her social anxiety seems a bit off. Seems like she can interact just fine after the hurdle of initiating the conversation, albeit awkward. At the very least there didn't seem to be much of a hurdle compared to other forms and uses I've seen of social anxiety.

Well if anything, this show just makes me want a Komi adaption more.

Ok, seems bad so far. The characters are generic, simple, and stupid. The art is really lighthearted, it's not special in any way, the animation is casual too.

I was worried, but it came together well.
I laughed at the OP, the part where everyone was riding on the back of giant Work Hard Fairies was hilarious and I naturally laughed at the parts that were already funny in the manga
also Nako's voice is spot on

Clearly you've never met a socially awkward person before. You'd be quite surprised how difficult it can be when trying to communicate with them and vice versa.

Yay I’m so glad I decided to check this one out an hour ago. I think I’m really gonna enjoy this anime. Man I love Bocchi already so much. Like I can really empathize with her and relate to her. Almost everything she thinks and does is what I predicted and would’ve done too. Like the cutest character I’ve ever seen. Shes gonna go right on my favourite characters list. I really like the comedy in this anime aswell. Haven’t giggled like this in a while now. I wonder why the teacher is so terrified of Nako lol. Overall super fun and entertaining episode 5/5

So far so good, at least she has made a single Friend. Can't wait to see who's next to be her friend.

Overall it was a good opening episode, me and this series are going to get along like a house on gasoline and fire. I'm light hearted like that!

I just started watching the first episodes of a few different anime this season and out of Senryuu Shoujo, Midari no Ao-Chan..., and this one, this is my favorite. Bocchi kinda reminds me of my younger self. I love this show <3

Well, this was awkward... until Nako saved the episode.

The first part wasn't really interesting but the second one changed that. It was nice to see Nako so willing to befriend poor Bocchi. Not to mention that the use of the cell phones to communicate between each other was something I really liked.

Overall, this first episode wasn't something really special but It was cute nevertheless.

This is some serious fluff of cuteness , i'm sure once the rest of the cast rolls in the high-jinks will be great now i'm praying for a Mitsuboshi Colors cameo hell the girls could be classmates whose to say this doesn't take place a few years after that lol.

I'm glad that she got a friend, hopefully she goes for the foreign girl next =)

And her old friend is a fucking idiot, who the fuck demand something like that? She don't need her , her new friends are going to be much better

Big plus no male interference ,only see them in the background where they should be .keep that up until the end and i will give high point for that

Give it a 7/10 its was a ok first episode ,definitely going to see the next one

"We won't be friends until you befriend everyone in your classroom!" What...

"Class 1 has been abolished. Immediately transfer to different schools." This is as tryhard as can be.

"All of humanity is my friend!" I think that should convince Kai well enough.

"Nana, Shichi" I expected a double Nana haha.

She ran out to get some juice and came back a few seconds later. That's actually pretty rare to see.

So much emphasis on the "KA?".

"I didn't have gaming as part of my options, so can we skip that?" Hahaha! Does anyone have any instruction manuals on how to become friends?

"When I get home, I'm dying!" YES! So direct!

"Please talk about something interesting." WHO TEXTS THIS?! HAHA!

You gotta give big props to Nako for being able to put up with Bocchi's eccentric behavior. That right there is a good friend to have.

This ought to be a fun series.

You don"t help a person by emotional blackmail, that is psychological abuse

She should absolutely encourage her friend by not in that manor

And she is not a fuck up at all, she just need some time

Don"t even understand why you need to start a argument about this, we obesely see things differently, i have better thing to do then arguing with random people in forums ,its pointless but have a nice day
