Having great theme songs is an essential for all anime, but even more so for shows about music itself. This season's BOCCHI THE ROCK! rose to the challenge and is already blowing us away with opening theme "Seishun Complex" and ending theme "Distortion!!" performed by the cast's Yakusoku Band — Yoshino Aoyama, Saku Mizuno, Sayumi Suzushiro and Ikumi Hasegawa — which you can now jam out to nonstop with the official videos below.

 

"Seishun Complex" is written by Ai Higuchi (Attack on Titan Final Season ED) and composed by otoha, while "Distortion!!" is written and composed by KANA-BOON vocalist Maguro Taniguchi (My Hero Academia Season 4 OP2). Both are arranged by Mitsui Ritsuo.

But not only could she not find any bandmates, before she knew it, she was in high school and still wasn’t able to make a single friend!

 

She was really close to becoming a shut-in, but one day, Nijika Ijichi, the drummer in Kessoku Band, reached out to her. And because of that, her everyday life started to change little by little...
