      There is unfortunately only ever bait in the show.

      Bocchis personality is exactly this though. Right down to the point where her internal worries escalate to the point of getting jailed for violating the geneva convention.

      The show is amazing. But it’s about life, social anxiety, and chasing one’s dreams.

          Yuri.

          There is a shitload of stuff about anxiety. One episode is literally just Bocchi getting over how scared she is of people, so she can sell her share of their concert tickets.

          In it, she finds a mentor in Kikuri, who ends up making her do some street-music to promote the band.

          The concert scenes are also insane. The way Bocchi loses herself in the music, completely forgetting her anxiety when she’s playing, hits hard.

          Who hasn’t said or done something in a fit of passion, to only realize a split second too late that you’re supposed to be terrified and embarrassed?
