Bocchi the Rock Announces Special Live Event

By Evan Valentine

Bocchi The Rock became a big contender for one of the best new anime to arrive in 2022. While the rocking series has yet to confirm if a second season is on the way, the manga has continued to this day by creator Aki Hamaji. Now, the anime franchise is hyping an upcoming live-action show that will re-create the music from the anime and assemble voice actors and musicians who brought the tale of Bocchi to life.

While Bocchi The Rock Season 2 is still up in the air, the Bocchi The Rock anime series gained quite a fan following thanks to CloverWorks. Following its notable tenure on The Promised Neverland, CloverWorks went on to not only work on this rocking anime but partner with Wit to create the juggernaut that is Spy x Family. The upcoming musical live event is slated to take place on May 21st next month in Japan, with the website of the series dropping new details for Bocchi's unique comeback.

If you haven't had the opportunity to check out the musical anime, the first season of Bocchi The Rock can be streamed on Crunchyroll. Here is how the streaming service describes the series, "Hitori Gotoh, 'Bocchi-chan,' is a girl who's so introverted and shy around people that she'd always start her conversations with 'Ah...' During her middle school years, she started playing the guitar, wanting to join a band because she thought it could be an opportunity for even someone shy like her to also shine. But because she had no friends, she ended up practicing guitar for six hours every day all by herself."
