What I absolutely love about Bocchi the Rock! -- apart from the absurdist humor -- is all the love it has for the Japanese music scene, a scene that I, perhaps like most outside Japan, have found impenetrable. It felt like an education I didn't know I need. And it timed very well with me dipping my feet back into music writing!

And then I remember I am in my mid-30s as well and probably will not have the strength to do any of this. Like I ever had when I was in my 20s, but that's a different thing altogether.

Really glad I was not the only person that felt incredibly called out every time Ryo was the main focus!
