The renowned
producer of CloverWorks studios , Shouta Umehara ,
surprised his followers on Twitter by sharing a peculiar experience he had
during a visit to the dentist. In his post, Umehara revealed that while
he was undergoing a dental procedure, his dentist decided to put on the popular
anime “ Bocchi the
Rock! " on the screen. What made this moment even more
surprising is that “Bocchi the Rock!” is a series in which Umehara participated
as a producer.
- « When I dropped my
phone at my doctor's office, the dentist noticed the sticker on it and
asked me: “Are you a fan of “Bocchi the Rock!”?” "I told him that he
worked in the anime industry and that he had participated in this series,
and in the end he decided to put the anime on the screen ,"
said the producer.
“ Bocchi
the Rock! “, A series that follows the story of Hitori Gotou, an
extremely anxious and socially awkward young woman who longs to become a rock
musician despite her struggles, while fulfilling her wish to make friends one
day. Her life takes an unexpected turn when she is taken in by Nijika
Ijichi to become a member of her newly formed band, Kessoku Band.
This
encounter at the dentist not only surprised Umehara, but also his followers on
social networks, who could not help but share their astonishment at this
curious anecdote.
- « When I went to the
Bocchi the Rock! exhibition, there were many people with their children.
It is not a series that wants to attract only otakus, but all families in
general .
- " I also want to go
to a dentist who plays anime in the waiting room ."
- « It really caught my
attention when I saw the series in the Family Area during this year's
AnimeJapan. The young fans of Bocchi the Rock!, I thought about the
possibility of brothers and sisters watching it together, it is certainly
a great series for all audiences .
- " I think it was a
great decision to remove the ecchi content from the original manga, such
as Bocchi's big breasts that are usually on display ."
- « Imagine if you had a
Shizuku-tan sticker and were asked, “Do you also like Saint ♡ Slippery's
Academy for Girls?” I would not have liked the final result .
- « I have a huge fear of
dentists, maybe this would help me relax? ».
- « I feel like I would be
the anti-fan in that waiting room, unfortunately for me .»
- « Bocchi the Rock! It
really remains an anime that breaks borders and generations .
