Wait, they really named her sister Futari??


Hitori - One (Hitotsu)
Futari - Two (Futatsu)

Just the usual way of numbering the kids in Japan.

So many people with their mind in the gutter smh.
And it was supposed to be that way itself. How the meaning behind their names have that subtle resemblance with their respective characteristics.

But of course you have to went out of your way, shaking head on something which isn't even there much less being hinted. And then having the audacity to think you don't belong to the group of people with their mind in gutter.

Her sister totally knows her. And this new girl is going to die from drinking too much.

We got a Yamaha user now. Such underrated instruments. They aren't as hyped as Fender or Gibbons, but they always deliver.

Bocchi still having trouble to sell those tickets, she wants her dad, mum, sister & dog to come along but her parents tell her that dogs and underage kids are not allowed in the concert, she then falls into her own thoughts and drowns in her own thoughts it seemed like.

Bocchi now sitting alone thinking how she can sell those tickets, the other band members having already sold their tickets is leaving bocchi in despair. Bocchi decides to not reply to the text and shrugs it off. Bocchi then gets almost jump scared by Hiroi who collapses on the ground, Bocchi ofcourse getting in panic wants to call the ambulance immediately. Hiori on the other hand only wants water, hangover meds, miso soup & crave porridge and she wants to rest on a freshly sun-dried fluffy bed (wow that's a lot), Hiori only likes 2 things (booze & bass) it seems like, the amount of drinking in this episode was nuts lol. Hiori actually loving Bocchi's guitar. Meanwhile Ryou, Nijika & Kita are all wondering why Bocchi hasn't replied yet to the text. They think that they gave her unnecessary pressure while in reality Bocchi got dragged along by Hiori lol. Bocchi wonders what it will be like when she was drinking later in the future, lemme tell you, its not pleasant. Hiori suggests to do an street performance and so they can get the attention of the public and maybe Bocchi can sell her tickets that way, a lot of people are there for an festival. Bocchi ofcourse being totally against it because she's anxious ofcourse. The other girls in Bocchi's band still worrying ofcourse and thinking its their fault. Bocchi starts playing with one eye open and one eye closed, Hiori ofcourse not knowing that, Bocchi did pull an awesome performance though. 2 girls were super nice to buy the tickets off from Bocchi and Hiori was super nice to take the last ticket off from Bocchi. Bocchi now has sold all tickets! she's super happy and decides to message the other members of the band but they all thought she is probably lying but they don't know that she actually sold her tickets.

Amazing episode

I will stop saying that the direction is incredible because it is the case for every episodes xD Finally Bocchi made a friend by her own (even though she's the one that came to Bocchi of course) and it's an alcoholic adult, it's an anime so it doesn't matter but still it's a bit sad it's a true and very hurtful disease that can easily lead to death in real life so it shouldn't be something to joke about but anyway that was great how they did that street concert and it's a miracle she managed to sell her tickets xD Even her friends don't believe it

They turned a single chapter of a 4-koma manga in a 24 min episode while adding a new subplot (the other band members had like 1 panel originally), giving us more of always-drunk Kikuri (thank you) and a lot of artistical depictions of Bocchi's mental crisis for having to face a new social experience (anyone who had to sell show tickets or raffle tickets for school will fell touched).

All in all, the anime staff seems to be having fun making this.

I never expected to like this anime so much. Especially when CSM and Golden Kamuy are airing this season. I like them all three but Bocchi takes the crown, my AOTS.

If they keep up this quality, it's gonna be my anime of the year. I just love it so much.

This was also a great episode, I really love how they can creatively deliver comedy when needed but the show still gives the characters enough focus, especially Hitori, so it actually feels like there is some weight to the story.

I can't wait to see more of Bocchi's development, I'm rooting for her.

man this episode made me so happy.

bocchi took a great step forward today and even learned a valuable lesson. i'm pretty sure that experience is gonna help her face the audience better now. it's al thanks to those 2 girls in kimono too and of course the drunk bassist hehe.

no wonder they can't believe she actually sold all the tickets. they sure gonna be shocked at the practice next day.

5/5. can't wait to watch the next one. if this continues this is gonna get at least a 9/10 for me. so fun.

The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.
Feeling half happy, half sad.

I fucking died when a happy faced Guitar Man was thrown into the water by Hitori's ghost of doubt. So many things happened even before the opening, like more in depth look into Gotou family and one hell of a DMT trip inside poor older sister head.

A wild drunk angel appears in Hitori's life and she is also into escapism and rock, what a coincidence. And while the girls at rehearsal tried to crack the loneliness code of Bocchi our heroine climbed the ladder of success up to the point of getting personal fans on the streets. Hustle hard and burn the fear, live by the law of the spiral of happiness (multiple transplanted organs needed). Seriously, Kikuri's persona adds a lot of flavor (and a heady smell of freedom) to Hitori's growth and it feels so natural and easy going for viewers pleasure. And she has a fang, uwu.

For someone who has a big case of social anxiety, trying to sell five tickets did prove to be a daunting task for Hitori at first as her original plan of having her family come along to the performance fell apart. While she was contemplating on what to do next, a drunkard fell in front of her and thus, Hitori's day would change for the better.

Hiroi might be too addicted with booze, but she was able to help Hitori to come out of her shell a bit by helping her with a street performance, without a permit for one of course! Aside from that, the duo were able to gather a small crowd and thanks to one of the girls vocally encouraging Hitori, she and Hiroi put on a great performance.

Thanks to her, Hitori was able to sell her five tickets. Her bandmates were worried as Hitori didn't respond or join them for practice, but I guess they can rest easy now that Hitori done her job, even if they didn't want to believe it at first! XD

And with that, we've reached the halfway point and this series remains one of the best of this season, with its great characters, development, animation and music. Here's hoping the latter half keeps up this excellent quality that we've had so far! =)

Haha, I like it how Hitori, even though she's got such a social anxiety, is still a very good girl at heart, always helping others. If you really think about it, she's doing hr best when it comes to helping others, inspite of her shortcomings. It's nice to see her slowly grow and come out of her shell.

Awww Bocchi is slowly crawling out of her shell. When she opens her eye (singular), no one laughs at her. What a character development. That bassist girl is mysterious indeed. She's drunk from start to finish even during their road show.

I'm glad Bocchi sold all those tickets and her mom didn't have to bring her friends. You can do it, Bocchi and Kessoku Band!

That thought into the future legit made me scared for some reason. Guess the panic attacks I had a couple years ago around that same thing might be a reason.
You can always turn your life around guys, at least you can try.
A very good episode as usual. Really liking the anime so far.
That "do your best" girl was adorable and the ending is hilarious :D
