About Bocchi the Rock!

Bocchi the Rock! is based on the popular four panel manga by Aki Hamaji, serialized in Houbunsha’s Manga Time Kirara MAX.

The television anime aired in fall 2022 and quickly became a major hit, especially among younger audiences. The story follows the extremely shy and socially anxious Hitori Gotoh as she joins Kessoku Band and grows alongside her three distinctive bandmates.

The series earned widespread acclaim both in Japan and internationally. It won a record eight awards, including Anime of the Year, at the 2022 Anime Trending Awards. It also ranked first in the TV Broadcast and Streaming category at the Newtype Anime Awards 2022–2023.

In music, Kessoku Band’s full album Kessoku Band topped Oricon’s annual Digital Album Sales Ranking for 2023.
