i just caught up to current in the bocchi the rock manga and i gotta say, that manga is pretty mid! it's got some funny 4koma beats but the anime really punched up the pacing and made it more cohesive than when it gets awkwardly stuffed into the rigid 4koma structure. and obviously the whole "performing as a band" thing plays a lot better in a visual/audio medium.
the anime feels like the best way to experience it in my imo so im not gonna personally recommend people go back to the source material on that one. truly an incredible anime adaptation, made so much with so little
They really did do incredibly transformative things with that anime, it’s wild.

Sleepy-girl representation is important
