Crunchyroll has obtained the rights to Bocchi the Rock! movie compilation. North American theatrical screenings coming soon. The first film, Bocchi the Rock! Re:, premieres in Japan soon. Second film, Bocchi the Rock! Re:Re:, arrives in August.

The opening sequence of the first film features newly animated scenes paired with Kessoku Band’s latest track, “Tsukinami ni Kagayaki” (Sparkle as Usual), with lyrics by Ai Higuchi, composition by -otoha-, and arrangement by Ritsuo Mitsui.

Aki Hamaji‘s four-panel manga Bocchi the Rock! serves as the source material, telling the tale of Hitori “Bocchi-chan” Gotō, a high school loner whose passion for her guitar knows no bounds. Her life takes an unexpected turn when she meets Nijika Ijichi, the founder of “Kessoku Band.”

Directed by Keiichirō Saitō, the TV anime aired on various channels in Japan in October 2022. Crunchyroll streamed it globally.

Hamaji launched the manga in Houbunsha‘s Manga Time Kirara Max in December 2017.
