As Saya continues to pick through the ruins of civilization, a single robot appears before her.

In the face of such loyalty, the girl can’t help but ponder her own seemingly endless mission. Are there still any survivors left for her to find?

NO ALCOHOL, NO MUSIC! Kikuri Hiroi-genius bassist of Sick Hack, terror of concert venues, eternal deadbeat, and all-around poor role model-has always believed there’s no problem you can’t drink your way out of.

Surely her personal life isn’t a total disaster...right?! Find out in this freewheeling spin-off of Bocchi the Rock!

Things are finally starting to get serious for Hitori “Bocchi” Gotoh as Kessoku Band sets its sights on participating in Unidentified Riot, a teen music festival!

Hitori “Bocchi” Gotoh once played guitar in solitude, but ever since Nijika roped her into joining Kessoku Band, she’s started to emerge from her shell...kinda. She may still be a nervous wreck, but with a show or two under her belt, a part-time job, and even some real-life friends, those rocker fantasies don’t seem so unrealistic anymore! However, the band’s about to face its biggest challenge yet-performing onstage at the school festival! Can Bocchi hold it together and become a rock legend, or will she embarrass herself in front of the entire student body? (Why not both?!)
