Bocchi The Rock!

The day continued as usual in Shimokitazawa, with bustling streets, open shops, and the distant sound of instruments escaping from small studios and music venues. In the basement of STARRY, the Kessoku Band tried to keep yet another rehearsal in order: Nijika organized everything with her lively manner, Ryo seemed lost in her own thoughts, Kita chatted with her usual energy, and Hitori Gotou remained huddled in some corner, holding her guitar as if it were her only shield against the world.

While Seika observed the activity with her serious expression and PA-san took care of the sound, the routine of the place began to take on that strange atmosphere that seemed to accompany any gathering of musicians. Between performances, rehearsals, unexpected visits, and conversations about bands, even people outside the group could end up getting involved in that little musical chaos.

On the other side of the underground scene, Kikuri Hiroi, Eliza Shimizu, and Shima Iwashita also carried the striking presence of SICK HACK, mixing talent, chaos, and eccentricity. And, away from the stage, the Gotou family continued to be Hitori's silent support system: Michiyo and Naoki with their quiet patience, Futari with her overly direct energy, and Jimihen completing the domestic atmosphere of the house.

Amidst guitars, drums, bass, anxiety, friendship, and dreams of performing on stage, that day seemed like just another ordinary beginning. But for anyone who approached this world, a simple conversation, a performance, or a small coincidence was enough to become trapped in the unpredictable rhythm of these bands.
