| No I won't make make the same mistake again and watch Bocchi content. Learned my lesson to not trust hype for this kind of anime from the first season |
| The time has finally come! Staff changes can be tricky but I have faith. 🤘 |

| @Softhenic03 considering they rotoscoped some of Sono Bisque Doll, it'd make sense if we don't get that for another year or so lol |
   |
| It was obvious, but I was surprised that it took relatively so much time. |
 |
| best news in a long long time |
| Sony was more worried about combating piracy and making DEI sjw woke slop, than giving this show a second season, so that's why it took so long. |
 |
| For how immensely popular the first season was not only in Japan, but around the world, I'm floored it took so long for a second season. But at least we're finally getting more. |
| Aww it's a shame Keiichirou Saitou isn't directing for s2, presumably because he's busy with Frieren. Suffering from success fr. Still hype though. |
| welp this is back. just have to wait and see if this'll be as cringe as the first season but i can already imagine the inflated score. |
 |
| After 3 years of waiting. WE ARE SO BACK! |
| For fuck sake Sony better make a dub of the first season now. |
| Those recap films were worth it. |
Bum Bum Dum Dum |
| If they stopped at just the recap movies, that would’ve been a serious loss, so I’m glad they finally back! |

| Am I the only one who kind of has lost interest in this series? I enjoyed the first season but having a 3 year break on a quite good enjoyable series before new season announcement, it kind of makes one lose interest. It'll probably be a year or two until this season start. I might watch this, who knows. |

| @Softhenic03 Yeah no. The new director said they haven't done anything yet, no arrangements no animation, nothing. He also explicitly said making anime takes a long time. We won't see this before 2026, maybe even Summer/Fall 2026. |

@ryzxgum you can tell when the 1000+ show logger stared too hard at the abyss when watching Bocchi, sad it got under your skin like that.
| @jesuscristo you don't need to watch 1000+ shows to be able to tell it's overrated, not sure what that has to do with anything anyway. just typical bocchi fans making as minimal sense as usual it seems. |
|
| Typical K-ON style boring-moe show, but it got overrated to death because of the herd mentality of the this new weird generation. These people give scores according to instructions of YouTube nerds. So, it's not surprising to see that it has this high of a score. It is only about hype now. Back in 10-15 years ago people would be ecstatic about the batch release of the shows like JoJo part 6 because they can binge watch it, but nowadays these weirdos grieve over it because they can't talk about it weekly on twitter. Anime or other mediums are just reduced to a mere tool for their weird TikTok videos and pseudo friendships. |
| Nice, first season was really funny, hope this one delivers as well. |

| @ryzxgum I wholeheartedly agree with you; however, it is still not as overrated as One Piece. That is the absolute disaster aside from world building. |

| @Raiseii not sure what one piece has to do with this thread, the mentally ill seem to be attracted to me today. anyways try bleach, demon slayer, jjk, golden kamui, dorohedoro, vinland post prologue or re;zero if you wanna see an actual disaster. those don't even have worldbuilding going for it, just pure slop for the smooth-brained. |

damn the quip went right over your head, a more neurotypical person would have got it was about you spending 1/20 of your life watching anime and feeling a bit too called out by the socially awkward character but I guess it was too much to asknot sure what that has to do with anything anyway

that's just a ridiculously basic and off the mark take on the showK-ON style moe show
| @jesuscristo 2010 facebook level boomer ''quips'' would be somewhat clever years ago but the world has moved on since then. ironic you say that when the only reason the corny incel/femcel fanbase even enjoys bocchi is because she's so relatable to their loser lifestyles, so the mental gymnastics from you here is hilarious. not much i can do for you unsavable NEETS who think being awkward is a flex, so sad. |

| @TsukuyomiREKT stop being a sensitive little dumbass coming up with lame excuses and grow up. this isn't about popularity, i've seen shows that are much popular which are way better than that garbage. now either come up with something actually worthwhile or stop wasting my time because not everyone is a pathetic NEET with no life like you. |
