This is a hidden gem that I strongly recommend watching. The storyline flows seamlessly, and the music are fantastic. This is not a flower story in which a prince comes to rescue them. It's about how they tackle their challenges together and conquer them by learning about one other. That is the part I enjoy the most. Also, they behave like normal girls without engaging in Barbie doll antics.

I could argue it's teeny bit unrealistic at times, but the most of the shots in this show are pretty beautiful and enjoyable. The animation is CGI and in rather high quality. I enjoy the girls' actions and occasionally find them humorous.

Finally, if you haven't seen it yet, I recommend that you do so. Totally worth your time!

Girls Band Cry is a deeply emotional and visually stunning anime that took me by surprise. It's not just another music show-it's a raw and honest portrayal of youth, pain, growth, and the power of self-expression. Each girl has her own struggles, and watching them come together through music felt incredibly real. The animation is unique and fluid, and the performances feel alive. The story doesn't shy away from darker themes like depression, isolation, or failure-but that's exactly what makes their journey so powerful. Highly recommended for anyone who craves more than surface-level storytelling.

Story: 7/10 Characters: 7/10 Musics: 10/10 Animation: 8.5/10 Overall 8/10

First of all the story itself is kinda cliché but that doesn't mean it is bad. The 3D animation style is unsual and really fun to watch. I thought I would hate the animation style but you get used to it and like it. The musics are 10/10. I listen to this bands songs in my daily life thats how I learned this anime existed.

If you are wondering there might be a season two. (they said if the merchs sell well then they might do seaaon 2)

If this is going to be your first music anime give Bocchi a try first. It is enjoyable.

I found this gem by accident. I am so mad and so happy at the same time. Why is, no one talking about this anime: Girl Band Cry. The animation in this anime is spectacular. Focus, clearly on the background, and tell me you were not blown away by the beautiful design/graphics. There's a scene where the main character eats, a bowl of rice, meat and, onions; if you look at the finished bowl. There is grease residue from the food, looking so vivid. I know I am being petty. But it was just so detailed and beautifully made that I just cannot get over it. The music and the lyrics complement not only the main character but all secondary characters. Also focus on the action and interaction of each character. They all complement each other's self and storyline. I wish, I could say more but then, I would ruin this magnificent journey that you will have as soon as you, hit play! Also, I wish they give this anime a second season. It truly deserves to expand into adulthood. It definitely gives me K-Dramas, vibe.

I don't know what it is, but I don't really have a lot of mood swings while watching this, instead I get more and more excited as I try to dig into the logic of the plot. Overall, I think it's a very good show so far, and the spirit of defiance that it's trying to convey is right up my alley. Secondly, the animation, song production, and character performances are clearly above average. But at this point I'm not going to judge the show by the same standards as I would a normal anime, so far it's been great, but I'm hoping for something that touches the audience and my heart even more. Enough said, I can only believe in Hanada (and by the way, the songs are really good!). /ep 13 Although there was no car crash that I was worried about, but the scribbling of the end is obviously not satisfactory, from the eighth episode onwards the pace of the series is getting faster and faster, if he was willing to make 24 episodes of the series, the narrative rhythm can be captured a lot better than it is now, it's not bad, but it could have been done better.
