First of all, what does “Bocchi” mean in Japanese?

Bocchi is an abbreviation of “hitoribocchi” in Japanese. It means being alone, solitary, isolated or lonely.
First of all, let me explain about what Bocchi means in the title of this anime. Bocchi is a slang and abbreviation of hitoribocchi in Japanese. It means being alone, solitary, isolated or lonely. It usually expresses a negative feeling.
So, the title, Bocchi the Rock means that a person who is being alone plays rock music?

The original manga is a 4 framed manga that is serialized in Manga Time Kirara Max!
This popular title was selected within TOP10 ranking in one of Japanese manga awards, Next Manga Award!

Bocchi the Rock is originally a 4 flamed manga that is serialized in Manga Time Kirara Max, a famous 4 flamed manga magazine.
Manga Time Kirara used to serialize “K-ON!” which is a similar music band manga, Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu ka? (Is the Order a Rabbit?), and so on. Basically the magazine seems to like titles which describe girls’ nichijo and pursuing their dreams.

The story of Bocchi the Rock!

Gotou Hitori was a lonely girl.
If someone invite her to do something together, she started thinking “is it really ok for me to join them?” So while she was hesitated to join, she lost a chance to join most of the time. She was always being alone.
One day, when Hitori was watching a TV show, a member of a famous band answered an interviewer that he did not have any friends and was always alone while he was in school. But now he is in a super popular rock band. Hitori thought,
”If I start a band, I may not be alone any more like him.”
She borrowed her father’s guitar and practiced 6 hours a day seriously, every single day.
After 3 years, Hitori is very good at playing a guitar, And......
She realized that she did not have any friends because she focused too much on playing guitar for the last 3 years while she was in middle school.
When Hitori started going to high school, she gave up making a friend.
Living in an internet society, if she uploads her songs, she could hear voice of admiration.
It’s almost the time for school festival. She was hoping to talk to people in school while she was carrying her guitar on her back. However, no one talked to her. She told herself that she can use the internet to connect to people. She also told herself that she is okay to be alone for real. Then, a girl came up to her.
“Isn’t it a guitar? Can you play it?”
“Can you please play it in my band for one day as a substitute?”
Before she said OK, Hitori was taken to their place!
What is going to happen to Hitori? Her fate may change!

Very relaxed band anime!
It is very easy to watch and heartwarming story! Very sweet anime!

Bocchi the Rock is a comedy taste anime. Hitori will experience various things and meet new people. You will feel very relaxed and warm atmosphere.
Most fall 2022 anime are very interesting but some of them are very intense and serious. So if you want to watch easy and relaxing anime, I highly recommend this Bocchi the Rock!
