1. I hate it when I'm right.
Copy !req
2. Nijika and her friends made them.
Copy !req
3. But the typhoon still came in the end.
Copy !req
4. Well, it's not like rain charms
actually affect the weather.
Copy !req
5. Even the people who bought tickets
might not come at this rate.
Copy !req
6. I hope they're not too
heartbroken by the small crowd.
Copy !req
7. They practiced so hard for this.
I feel bad for them.
Copy !req
8. Real bands get screwed over
by life all the time.
Copy !req
9. They need to learn to make it
through any situation.
Copy !req
10. I've got a handkerchief.
Copy !req
11. Oh, go away.
Copy !req
12. Tickets go on sale at 5 pm
Copy !req
13. Looks like my friends can't come either.
Copy !req
14. S-Same with my parents.
Copy !req
15. M-My grandma was supposed
to look after Futari,
Copy !req
16. b-but now she can't come, so...
Copy !req
17. Yeah. Makes sense...
Copy !req
18. Our audience is going to be
less than half of what we expected.
Copy !req
19. Well, it is what it is!
Copy !req
20. Let's take it in stride!
Copy !req
21. Yes, of course!
Copy !req
22. Nijika-chan always stays so cheerful,
no matter what happens.
Copy !req
23. C'mon, look alive there!
Copy !req
24. It's the low-pressure system. So sleepy...
Copy !req
25. That's right. Even during the concert
where I was just helping...
Copy !req
26. She worked so hard to cheer me up
when I was scared.
Copy !req
27. O-Okay!
Copy !req
28. For today's concert...
Copy !req
29. Sergeant for a Day
Copy !req
30. I'm gonna bring the hype!
Copy !req
31. Bocchi-chan, this is a serious concert.
Copy !req
32. No messing around.
Copy !req
33. You really like that outfit, huh?
Copy !req
34. Y-Yes...
Copy !req
35. Wow, look at that rain!
Copy !req
36. Bocchi-chan, I'm here!
Copy !req
37. M-Ma'am!
Copy !req
38. Oh, you came here for Bocchi-chan?
Copy !req
39. Heck yeah! Yay!
Copy !req
40. Y-You know each other?
Copy !req
41. She was my junior in college.
Copy !req
42. Betcher havin' an after-party tonight, right?
Copy !req
43. Picked an izakaya yet?
Copy !req
44. You reek of booze!
Copy !req
45. I know a good one, 'kay? 'Kay?
Copy !req
46. How did you become even more
of a pain in the ass?
Copy !req
47. She's as annoying as a college student
who just learned about drinking parties.
Copy !req
48. And look at you! You're soaked!
Copy !req
49. I'm so wet!
Copy !req
50. Hitori-chan!
Copy !req
51. The girls from our street concert!
Copy !req
52. Y-You really came?
Copy !req
53. Of course we did!
Copy !req
54. We're your fans!
Copy !req
55. We'll be expecting a performance
powerful enough to blow away the typhoon!
Copy !req
56. Fans...
Copy !req
57. Y-You are Hitori-chan, right?
Copy !req
58. Did we have the wrong person?
Copy !req
59. My fans!
Copy !req
60. Congrats! Congrats! Congrats!
Copy !req
61. My fans!
Copy !req
62. It is the wrong person!
Copy !req
63. Looks like the rain's
only going to get worse.
Copy !req
64. Worse than this?
Copy !req
65. Yes...
Copy !req
66. Maybe we should just stream it
as a no-audience concert
Copy !req
67. and act like it was supposed
to be that way from the start.
Copy !req
68. We're not doing that!
Copy !req
69. It's way too late to get anyone to tune in,
Copy !req
70. and we've already got a couple people here...
Copy !req
71. I-I-I-It'll be okay!
Copy !req
72. A-As long as we have p-people
waiting to see us p-perform!
Copy !req
73. Ripe Mangos
Copy !req
74. Don't you dare!
Copy !req
75. She's evolved somehow...
Copy !req
76. Ripe Mangos
Copy !req
77. Ripe Mangos
Copy !req
78. It's just about start time, and there's
really not many people out there...
Copy !req
79. But the other bands' fans are here too,
Copy !req
80. and I'm sure they'll all listen to us!
Copy !req
81. And I'm sure more will arrive if we start.
Copy !req
82. Hey, you ever heard of this
first group? Kessoku Band?
Copy !req
83. Don't know. Don't care.
Copy !req
84. Yeah, seems like a waste of time.
Copy !req
85. W-Well, we're new,
so of course no one knows us!
Copy !req
86. Don't let it get you down!
Copy !req
87. E-Exactly!
Copy !req
88. Don't sweat it. Don't sweat it.
Copy !req
89. R-Right!
Copy !req
90. O-Okay, it's almost time!
Copy !req
91. Let's do that concert, you guys!
Copy !req
92. A pleasure to meet you!
Copy !req
93. We're Kessoku Band!
Copy !req
94. We appreciate your kind attendance
in spite of this awful weather!
Copy !req
95. Kita-chan, that's way too polite
for a rock band!
Copy !req
96. I want my mango box!
Copy !req
97. Actually, I want to disappear altogether!
Copy !req
98. Well, let's get to that first song!
Copy !req
99. Please lend your ears to our original song:
Copy !req
100. "Guitar, Solitude, and the Blue Planet"!
Copy !req
101. A sudden evening shower falls
Copy !req
102. And yeah, it figures,
I don't have an umbrella...
Copy !req
103. Who cares how the sky's feeling, anyway?
Copy !req
104. When it's time for the seasons to change
Copy !req
105. What are you supposed to wear? Who knows?
Copy !req
106. Nijika-chan's drumming feels a little slow.
Copy !req
107. Spring and fall... yeah, where'd they go?
Copy !req
108. The pressure of information, suffocating
Copy !req
109. And Kita-san's making mistakes
she didn't make in practice.
Copy !req
110. A spiral of vertigo
Copy !req
111. Ryo-san and Nijika-chan
aren't in sync at all.
Copy !req
112. Don't know where I am
Copy !req
113. I can hear myself breathing
so loud, so loud...
Copy !req
114. But why? I can't hear the
sounds of the world...
Copy !req
115. It's not enough, not enough,
No one knows I'm here
Copy !req
116. I screamed when I couldn't
make a scribble of a sound
Copy !req
117. We're not playing the way we usually do...
Copy !req
118. Who am I supposed to show "just who I am" to?
Copy !req
119. So I'm singing just like the fool I am
Copy !req
120. Let's lay it all out to the stars!
Copy !req
121. That was "Guitar, Solitude,
and the Blue Planet"!
Copy !req
122. Yeah, what a waste of time.
Copy !req
123. We should've showed up later.
Copy !req
124. Um...
Copy !req
125. Kita-chan, you need to
introduce the next song!
Copy !req
126. R-Right!
Copy !req
127. The next is another of our original songs,
Copy !req
128. and it's one we just wrote...
Copy !req
129. Our performance and
our songs still aren't good enough.
Copy !req
130. But...
Copy !req
131. I refuse to let it stay this way!
Copy !req
132. That band's songs sound to me
Copy !req
133. like shrill laughter all around
Copy !req
134. That band's songs are to me
Copy !req
135. like the piercing clang of a railway crossing
Copy !req
136. Don't push me forward
Copy !req
137. There's a train coming
Copy !req
138. I close my eyes
Copy !req
139. There's a halo in the darkness
Copy !req
140. I cover my ears
Copy !req
141. There's a steady beating pulse within
Copy !req
142. Deep in my chest
Copy !req
143. My heart makes my body sway
Copy !req
144. I don't want to hear anything else
Copy !req
145. Nothing but the sounds I'm making
Copy !req
146. Hey, not bad!
Copy !req
147. Yeah!
Copy !req
148. That was super cool!
Copy !req
149. Yeah!
Copy !req
150. Magnificent smugface.
Copy !req
151. That was our second song, "That Band"!
Copy !req
152. Now, here's our last song!
Copy !req
153. Kaomise
Copy !req
154. Cheers!
Copy !req
155. Well done, all!
Copy !req
156. Nice work on the concert.
Copy !req
157. This is all on my tab, so drink up.
Copy !req
158. Thanks, Sis! Though we don't drink...
Copy !req
159. Love ya, Senpai!
Copy !req
160. You pay your own way. Get off.
Copy !req
161. Who exactly is this woman, if I may ask?
Copy !req
162. Genius bassist and unparalleled
bass-lover, Kikuri Hiroi!
Copy !req
163. I left my bass at a drinking party yesterday,
Copy !req
164. but I forgot which drinking party, so...
Copy !req
165. Instant self-contradiction.
Copy !req
166. I've been to a lot of your concerts.
Copy !req
167. Aw, for real? You got good taste, hon!
Copy !req
168. You spray booze on the audience.
Copy !req
169. Blind drunk concerts are the best!
Copy !req
170. Sorry, forgot the words!
Copy !req
171. But hey, that's how concerts go sometimes!
Copy !req
172. Don't be mad, you jerks!
Copy !req
173. I treasure my memory of
you stepping on my face.
Copy !req
174. Thank you, Shinjuku!
Copy !req
175. I love you mother******s!
Copy !req
176. There's so much about rock
I have yet to learn.
Copy !req
177. It might be okay not to learn all that.
Copy !req
178. Glad your concert turned out well in the end!
Copy !req
179. For an audience of ten, sure.
Copy !req
180. But every single one of 'em left happy!
Copy !req
181. Yeah, guess so!
Copy !req
182. Well, keep it up, and you'll pick up fans.
Copy !req
183. Work hard for your next concert.
Copy !req
184. And make sure you pay your quota fee.
Copy !req
185. That'd be really inspiring
without the last bit...
Copy !req
186. You worked really hard today too,
Bocchi-chan...
Copy !req
187. Wait, why's she a husk?
Copy !req
188. Bocchi-chan, don't turn to ash!
Copy !req
189. I've grown so tired...
Copy !req
190. Congrats! Congrats!
Copy !req
191. That's the wrong show!
Copy !req
192. Go on, order as much food as you like!
Copy !req
193. R-Right...
Copy !req
194. Watcha gettin', Bocchi-chan?
Copy !req
195. I was thinking of ordering karaage!
Copy !req
196. S-Sounds good...
Copy !req
197. What are you doing?
Copy !req
198. But this looks pretty good too!
Copy !req
199. Isstagramming!
Copy !req
200. I'm the minister!
Copy !req
201. Minister?
Copy !req
202. What do you like so much about that, anyway?
Copy !req
203. What?
Copy !req
204. I guess it's like
giving people a piece of the fun...
Copy !req
205. Isn't everything more fun when
you share it with your friends?
Copy !req
206. Kit-aura
Copy !req
207. Kit-aura!
Copy !req
208. Kit-aura
Copy !req
209. Nice!
Copy !req
210. Use that Kita-chan power of yours
to purge my sister's twisted spirit!
Copy !req
211. Twisted?
Copy !req
212. But the manager's really nice!
Copy !req
213. Kit-aura
Copy !req
214. Kit-aura
Copy !req
215. Kit-aura! Kit-aura!
Copy !req
216. Stop it.
Copy !req
217. You're killing me.
Copy !req
218. I-I've made up my mind. Here's the menu.
Copy !req
219. Thanks!
Copy !req
220. Let's see...
Copy !req
221. I'll have the avocado and
cream cheese pinchos!
Copy !req
222. And the Spanish omelette
with hollandaise sauce!
Copy !req
223. The what?
Copy !req
224. Here! The omelette with hollandaise.
Copy !req
225. Hollanda-what?
Copy !req
226. Kita-san's so fluent in trendy gibberish.
Copy !req
227. Nice! Nice!
Copy !req
228. Keep ordering!
Copy !req
229. I bet she can casually
walk into a Starpucks.
Copy !req
230. I bet she could make the most complicated
orders like it was nothing.
Copy !req
231. I'll have a short puri-puri pepero
papipupepo peroppe pacina!
Copy !req
232. Kit-aura!
Copy !req
233. Bocchi-chan? What do you want?
Copy !req
234. Oh...
Copy !req
235. I w-won't be the way I usually am!
Copy !req
236. I'll make a trendy choice too!
Copy !req
237. Bocchi-chan?
Copy !req
238. Th-Then, I'll have the M-Machu Picchu Ruins,
Copy !req
239. Mississippi River,
Grand Canyon San Diego hash...
Copy !req
240. M-Machu Picchu, Machu Picchu, Machu Picchu...
Copy !req
241. Where's that exactly?
Copy !req
242. Oh, I read it wrong...
Copy !req
243. I meant fries.
Copy !req
244. How did you read that wrong?
Copy !req
245. Pickled fish offals for me.
Copy !req
246. How old're you again?
Copy !req
247. You're already moving on?
Copy !req
248. Izakayas are like my home ground, y'know?
Copy !req
249. Hey, how do you read this one?
Copy !req
250. It's my first time at an izakaya,
Copy !req
251. Which one? I don't think
I can read it either...
Copy !req
252. but they're actually kind of fun...
Copy !req
253. You're so knowledgeable, Ryo-senpai!
Copy !req
254. I wonder if they'll be even more fun
when I grow up and can drink.
Copy !req
255. My wife's taste in clothing
changed all of a sudden.
Copy !req
256. And she suddenly started
locking her smartphone.
Copy !req
257. What, you check your wife's phone?
Copy !req
258. No, I just happened to notice.
Copy !req
259. Sounds like cheating to me.
Copy !req
260. Yeah, gotta be...
Copy !req
261. But maybe I deserve it.
Copy !req
262. I'm so busy with work every day...
Copy !req
263. You don't deserve it.
Copy !req
264. Hours of unpaid overtime, forced to spend
my days off golfing with clients...
Copy !req
265. And when I do get an early break,
I have such a hard time facing her
Copy !req
266. I go drinking with you instead...
Copy !req
267. What am I even doing all this work for?
Copy !req
268. Hey, you all right, man?
Copy !req
269. Sometimes I look at the station platform, and
I find myself about to jump onto the tracks.
Copy !req
270. C'mon, have some more to drink.
Copy !req
271. Excuse me! More shochu!
Copy !req
272. Sure thing! One shochu!
Copy !req
273. Is life just an unrelenting hell?
Copy !req
274. If I can't make my stage
debut in high school,
Copy !req
275. I'm going to have to get a proper career too.
Copy !req
276. I'm not smart enough to get into college,
Copy !req
277. Fail to make debut,
get a job
Copy !req
278. Graduate high school
Copy !req
279. Move on to college
Copy !req
280. and I don't even know what I'd go for...
Copy !req
281. Sales Results for December
Copy !req
282. 100
Copy !req
283. Gotoh Ozaki Hasegawa Koizumi Ogawa
Copy !req
284. 5th 4th 3rd 2nd 1st
Copy !req
285. Your sales for this month were the
lowest on the team, Gotoh-san.
Copy !req
286. Gotoh-san again?
Copy !req
287. It's partly the boss being cruel.
Copy !req
288. He transferred her to sales
to try to make her quit!
Copy !req
289. Tokoroten
Copy !req
290. E-Excuse me...
Copy !req
291. W-Would you like to buy some tokoroten?
Copy !req
292. It's well-aged, and it goes down smooth...
Copy !req
293. No, thank you!
Copy !req
294. Transferred to
sales department
Copy !req
295. Fail at door-
to-door sales
Copy !req
296. Stress quit and
become a shut-in
Copy !req
297. I see as plain as day
where my Game of Life is going!
Copy !req
298. Hitori-chan, won't you open up? Please?
Copy !req
299. You don't have to go back to work.
Copy !req
300. Just come eat dinner with me again!
Copy !req
301. Please?
Copy !req
302. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Copy !req
303. Another of Bocchi-chan's episodes?
Copy !req
304. Oh, so that is typical for her!
Copy !req
305. If I can't make money with my guitar,
I'll end up a NEET.
Copy !req
306. Her face is scary when it gets like that.
Copy !req
307. If I can't make money with my guitar...
Copy !req
308. Really? I think it's got personality.
Copy !req
309. Are you for real?
Copy !req
310. Sandpaper, please.
Copy !req
311. It's kind of a chore, huh?
Copy !req
312. Whoops. Think I botched it.
Copy !req
313. It's okay.
Copy !req
314. Just do it like this. See?
Copy !req
315. They're used to it!
Copy !req
316. Up we go.
Copy !req
317. Did I make her face too long?
Copy !req
318. I think it's about right.
Copy !req
319. Oh, thank you!
Copy !req
320. A-Actually, can I fix it up a little?
Copy !req
321. By the way, Ikuyo.
Copy !req
322. You played pretty well today for only
having done this for three months.
Copy !req
323. Huh? Who's Ikuyo again?
Copy !req
324. Dunno! Who'd have a crummy
old name like that?
Copy !req
325. It's your name, isn't it?
Copy !req
326. Oh, it's Kita-chan's name?
Copy !req
327. That face is contagious, huh?
Copy !req
328. I hid it for so long!
Copy !req
329. I hate my name so much!
Copy !req
330. How come? It's cute.
Copy !req
331. You wouldn't understand,
since you have a beautiful name
Copy !req
332. that means "song of the stars"!
Copy !req
333. Look at her freak out!
Copy !req
334. But mine sounds like a bad pun!
Copy !req
335. "Kita! Ikuyo!" (I'm here! Let's go!)
Copy !req
336. Are you serious?
Copy !req
337. I think we broke her.
Copy !req
338. My full name is Kita Kita.
Copy !req
339. Seeing you withdraw into your shell is fun.
Copy !req
340. You're sadistic.
Copy !req
341. So, as for what you were saying before...
Copy !req
342. You were mumbling about supporting yourself
with the guitar and becoming a NEET.
Copy !req
343. I-I'm sorry for losing my head...
Copy !req
344. Hey, nothin' wrong with it.
Copy !req
345. But lemme give you some advice
as your senpai in the world of bands.
Copy !req
346. Just chill out and enjoy yourself!
Copy !req
347. If you put the weight of success
on your own shoulders all the time,
Copy !req
348. you'll just make yourself miserable.
Copy !req
349. That's right.
Copy !req
350. It's important to enjoy the process
of making your dream come true.
Copy !req
351. By the way, Senpai, how come
you suddenly quit playing?
Copy !req
352. Th-The manager was in a band?
Copy !req
353. Oh, yah. They were super popular.
Copy !req
354. Then wh-why...
Copy !req
355. I got sick of bands.
Copy !req
356. But you run a club.
What's the deal there, huh?
Copy !req
357. Shut up and drink.
Copy !req
358. Nijika-chan never said a word about that...
Copy !req
359. What, I can? Thanks a bunch!
Copy !req
360. Huh? And Nijika-chan's been gone a while...
Copy !req
361. I'm not paying for you, though.
Copy !req
362. Aww...
Copy !req
363. E-Excuse me.
Copy !req
364. I have to use the restroom.
Copy !req
365. Manager, keep 'em comin'!
Copy !req
366. E-Excuse me... Nijika-chan?
Copy !req
367. Oh, Bocchi-chan!
Copy !req
368. I-Is something the matter?
Copy !req
369. Nah, just getting some fresh air.
Copy !req
370. I-It's been getting cold
at night lately, huh?
Copy !req
371. Sure has.
Copy !req
372. Next thing we know,
summer break's gonna be over!
Copy !req
373. I hear nothing.
Copy !req
374. I know nothing.
Copy !req
375. Summer break never ends.
Copy !req
376. I'm not a student.
Copy !req
377. Trees, water, planets, Milky Way...
Copy !req
378. Bocchi-chan! Back to reality!
Copy !req
379. S-Sorry.
Copy !req
380. E-Excuse me...
Copy !req
381. Say...
Copy !req
382. I realized something while I was
watching you play today.
Copy !req
383. You're guitarhero, aren't you?
Copy !req
384. W-Well, a-actually, n-no, about that...
Copy !req
385. It was pretty obvious from the
on-point way you were strumming.
Copy !req
386. And I finally noticed
you had the same guitar.
Copy !req
387. No use trying to hide it now.
Copy !req
388. Um...
Copy !req
389. I am.
Copy !req
390. B-But I didn't hide it on purpose.
Copy !req
391. S-Since I'm anything but a hero right now...
Copy !req
392. I w-wanted to wait to tell you
until I fixed the way I am.
Copy !req
393. E-Especially you, Nijika-chan.
Copy !req
394. A-Are you shocked to find out?
Copy !req
395. Nah...
Copy !req
396. It made me all the more happy to have you!
Copy !req
397. What?
Copy !req
398. See, I told you I had a dream before, right?
Copy !req
399. Y-Yes?
Copy !req
400. My mom died when I was little,
and my dad was never home,
Copy !req
401. so my sister was pretty much my only family.
Copy !req
402. But since I hated being alone,
when my sis started a band,
Copy !req
403. I had her take me to her clubs all the time.
Copy !req
404. It all seemed so shining to me.
Copy !req
405. I was never happier anywhere else.
Copy !req
406. I was her inspiration for quitting her band
and starting up this club.
Copy !req
407. Starry is a place my sister made for me.
Copy !req
408. Though I'll bet she won't admit it.
Copy !req
409. So my real dream
Copy !req
410. is to make a band popular
enough for me and my sister
Copy !req
411. and make Starry even more famous!
Copy !req
412. But when I actually started my band,
Copy !req
413. I spent a while thinking that
it was kind of out of my reach.
Copy !req
414. And everyone was so disheartened today.
Copy !req
415. But every time things
are looking their worst,
Copy !req
416. Ripe Mangos
Copy !req
417. you're the one who breaks through it for us!
Copy !req
418. Bocchi-chan, you were
one heck of a hero to me today.
Copy !req
419. Ryo wants to use this band to finally
get to play music from the heart,
Copy !req
420. and Kita-chan wants to really
do something with us.
Copy !req
421. They've all invested their hopes in the band.
Copy !req
422. That reminds me, you never actually told me
what you were doing the band for now.
Copy !req
423. I...
Copy !req
424. As a guitarist, I want to make the
Kessoku Band we all care so much about
Copy !req
425. the best band it can be!
Copy !req
426. A-And I want us to become such a popular band
Copy !req
427. that we can make money
and not have to finish school...
Copy !req
428. That's a pretty tall order!
Copy !req
429. But I accept your investment!
Copy !req
430. I sure do wish you could play the way
you do in your videos every time, though...
Copy !req
431. I'll d-do my best...
Copy !req
432. But now I know it for sure!
Copy !req
433. Having you with us will
make our dreams possible!
Copy !req
434. So keep showing us more and more.
Copy !req
435. Of "Bocchi-chan's rock."
Copy !req
436. Bocchi the Rock!
Copy !req
437. Okay!
Copy !req
438. What's wrong with not
letting my sound die down?
Copy !req
439. BOCCHI THE ROCK!
Copy !req
440. What's wrong with being young?
Copy !req
441. BOCCHI THE ROCK!
Copy !req
442. Hey, why doesn't it stop?
Copy !req
443. The rhythm that I can't stop
Copy !req
444. keeps reverberating through my body
Copy !req
445. The melody playing in my earphones
Copy !req
446. is the only thing that lets me be who I am
Copy !req
447. The sky is tinged in red
Copy !req
448. But what color is my soul?
Copy !req
449. Tell me
Copy !req
450. where should I go?
Copy !req
451. I've always been searching
Copy !req
452. for something precious (hey!)
Copy !req
453. If everything's going to be lost some day
Copy !req
454. let's engrave it as deep as we can (now!)
Copy !req
455. My most pathetic nights
and cackling laughter
Copy !req
456. And days when I couldn't say
more than "You know..."
Copy !req
457. What's wrong with not
letting my sound die down?
Copy !req
458. What's wrong with being young?
Copy !req
459. Watch it!
