Bocchi the Rock! first aired in Fall 2022 and immediately captured the hearts of anime fans, especially those who love slice-of-life and music genres. The series follows Hitori Gotoh, an introverted girl who dreams of becoming a rock musician. She eventually joins Kessoku Band and gradually grows both as a guitarist and as a person. With its fresh humor, charming animation, and relatable story, Bocchi the Rock! became a massive hit. Now, the highly anticipated second season has been officially announced!

Official Season 2 Announcement

Great news for anime fans! Bocchi the Rock! Season 2 was officially announced during the Kessoku Band TOUR "We will B" concert on February 15, 2025, in Tokyo. During the event, the band members and production team expressed their gratitude to fans for their continuous support since the first season.

Alongside the announcement, a teaser trailer and a new visual were also released. The teaser showcases iconic moments featuring the characters, along with new locations that will serve as the setting for Season 2.

Production Team and Director Changes

One of the biggest changes in Season 2 is the director swap. Keiichiro Saito, who directed the first season, has handed over the role to Yusuke Yamamoto, who previously worked as an assistant director on Season 1.

Despite this change, the core team remains the same:

• Erika Yoshida returns as the series scriptwriter.
• Kerorira and Keito Oda continue their roles as character designers.

With a strong returning staff and a fresh director, Season 2 is expected to bring new elements while maintaining the signature charm of the series.

Bocchi the Rock! Season 2 Release Date

Although the second season has been officially confirmed, the release date has not yet been revealed. Studio CloverWorks is once again in charge of production, ensuring that the animation quality remains top-notch. Fans will have to wait for further updates regarding the exact premiere date.

What to Expect in Season 2?

In the upcoming season, we can expect further character development for Hitori, especially in terms of her confidence and social growth. Additionally, Kessoku Band will likely face new challenges in their musical journey, including competitions, bigger concerts, and internal dynamics within the group.

Of course, Bocchi’s signature awkward and hilarious interactions will return, bringing plenty of entertainment for longtime fans.

Season 1 Recap & Success

Since its debut in Fall 2022, Bocchi the Rock! quickly became one of the most popular anime of the year. With its absurd humor, engaging storytelling, and relatable characters, the series gained a solid fanbase.

Hitori Gotoh, with her social anxiety and overactive imagination, resonated with many viewers who saw themselves in her struggles. She is a talented guitarist who thrives on social media but struggles in real life—one of the main reasons why the anime became so relatable.

Beyond the anime’s success, Kessoku Band also gained popularity among music fans. Songs like Guitar, Loneliness, and Blue Planet, along with various other covers, went viral across social media, sparking discussions among the anime community. Before the Season 2 announcement, Bocchi the Rock! even received two compilation films, released in June and August 2023.

The announcement of Bocchi the Rock! Season 2 has sparked excitement among anime fans. With Studio CloverWorks returning and the production team still intact, the upcoming season has the potential to be even more exciting and emotional than the first.

Although an official release date is yet to be confirmed, fan anticipation is already high. For now, all we can do is wait for more updates while rewatching the first season and enjoying Kessoku Band’s music. Stay tuned for the latest news on Bocchi the Rock! Season 2!
