Bocchi the Rock! Continues to reap success

There is no doubt that "Bocchi the Rock!" was one of the most relevant releases in all of 2022, rivaling others such as "Chainsaw Man" and "Sono Bisque Doll wa Koi wo Suru". And although the anime adaptation practically does not continue due to the fact that what follows are two compilation films, the protagonist group "Kessoku Band" continues to raise the name of the franchise.

After a successful participation in the JAPAN JAM 2024 music festival in Japan, the Kessoku Band announced a national tour for Fall-2024. The core group of "Bocchi the Rock!" announced the Zepp Tour 2024, a series of concerts at Zepp venues around Japan, with concerts scheduled in Osaka, Sapporo, Tokyo, Nagoya and Fukuoka.

Recall that the group is made up of the voice actresses of the project, which include Yoshino Aoyama as Hitori Gotou; Sayumi Suzushiro as Nijika Ijichi; Saku Mizuno as Ryou Yamada, and Ikumi Hasegawa as Ikuyo Kita. In fact, a recent video became a trend by showing a fragment of the Kessoku Band's participation in the JAPAN JAMP 2024, where, among other songs, they performed "Seishun Complex", the opening of the series.

While the tour is scheduled to take place between September 8 and December 22 this year, the two "Bocchi the Rock!" compilation films are scheduled for release on June 7 and August 9 this year in theaters in Japan. Fans are more than sure that, following the airing of the second season, a second season will finally be announced for this project. The success of "Bocchi the Rock!" is definitely a business opportunity, but will a follow-up be possible?

Synopsis of Bocchi the Rock!

Hitori Gotoh, "Bocchi-chan", is such an introverted and shy girl around people that she always starts her conversations with "Ah..." During her high school years, she started playing guitar and wanted to join a band because she thought it could be an opportunity for even someone shy like her to shine as well. But since she had no friends, she ended up practicing guitar by herself for six hours every day.

After becoming an expert guitarist, she uploaded videos of herself playing guitar under the name "Guitar Hero" and fantasized about performing at her school's cultural festival concert. But not only could he not find any bandmates, but before he knew it, he was in high school and still couldn't make a single friend! She was very close to becoming a ni-ni, but one day, Nijika Ijichi, drummer of Kessoku Band, approached her. And because of that, his daily life began to change little by little...
