Kikuri Hiroi from Bocchi the Rock. It’s an anime about a shy high school girl who learned to play guitar because she thought it would help her make friends but now she’s just shy and really good at guitar. It’s a wholesome anime and Bocchi is just like me fr fr. Kikuri is an older base player from another band that encourages Bocchi…and is almost always drunk.
So it’s like BECK but with girls ? I haven’t watched beck in several years but I don’t think the main character is shy. He’s an adolescent teen and is portrayed as such. I remember the show to feel vary grounded, very real.
The name of the anime and vague memories of it suddenly popped up in my mind after forgetting it for so long it kinda felt weird.
Calling her shy is an understatement honestly, she clearly has social anxiety disorder and much of the anime focuses around comedy derived from that. And it somehow manages to be funny without feeling like it trivializes her issues, it’s one of the most accurate portrayals of social anxiety in media that I can think of.
What is the context behind this image? On second thought, I don’t want to know

The character is actually wholesome and sfw. Well unless you consider being a drunkard nsfw…
