Bocchi finally takes the stage in English, and she's
brought her best friend-crippling anxiety! Hitori Goto just wants
to make friends, but the thought of approaching a stranger on her
own makes her so nervous that she's spent the entirety of middle
school teaching herself how to shred on the guitar-to moderately
successful (albeit anonymous) YouTube fame-in the hopes of seeming
cool enough for someone else to reach out to her instead. After
bringing her guitar to school provokes zero interest, Hitori's just
about ready to shrivel up and die...which is when Nijika Ijichi
comes across her moping in a playground and begs her to fill in for
her band's flakey guitarist for their first-ever live performance!
It's like her wish came true-but does this most antisocial of
introverts have what it takes to perform in front of real
people?!
