It's extremely difficult to animate guitar playing imo because hands are one of the hardest things to draw. And the more you have to move them obv the more frames you have to get right. I don't mind it too much in animation but its really cool when they pull off stuff like this

[@Kokochocomouchoco]

Yea just any instrument proper animation really is difficult. It’s like animating running….except u gotta animate like 32 more joints

The instrument playing in shows like this is usually rotoscoped off of live band footage to make that sort of things more accurate and simple.

"Kids on the Slope" has an upright bass that was finger picked. It was an excellent anime about Japanese kids learning about the wonderful world of western jazz way back in 1966. I've watched almost 1000 series now and this one comes to mind because it is a very rare concept. It was very well done and damn did it put a smile on my face when they jammed. Released in 2012 and the legal streaming sites let it go years ago. Clips still exist here on youtube but for legal streaming, it's just a memory. It was a wonderful adaptation.

I realised two things: even though I am a massive K-On stan, I think the music in Bocchi will probably be way more up my alley and this might be the strongest argument to watch it so far. And second: The direct comparison of all the video footage made me realise how epic Given's animation truly is. I already love it so so much, simply because of the story and since I am a big sucker for pretty visuals, I already enjoyed that aspect. But I will appreciate it even more now! Kinda how like YOI had such beautiful skating animation. I love it when there is so much love shown to their sport/art.

5:40 Pretty cool name, It will be my child name in the future as a fan of Davie and inspiration.

[@pepothedude6547]

Ok but the bassline in K-ON! songs like Samidare 20 love is actually pretty good, and when I saw the original thumbnail (which included Mio) I expected an actual review on Houkago Tea Time's (or Mio's) basslines lol

[@onlydusty6093]

@Davie504 no one noticed that you swapped bases in 4:11 😅

[@akihikoeditzz]

I DID!!!

[@pietroallievi6369]

I never saw the anime Bocchi the Rock, but I heard that the drunk bassist Kikuri Hiroi is inspired to Margaret Hiroi, bassist and singer of the japanese progressive experimental rock band 88Kasyo Junrei, and they are really something

[@justelisan1766]

Mio from K-On is my favorite. Especially in the song Samidare 20 Love. The Bass is great in that one

[@evalleyn]

Same

[@PETEYBOY954]

We’re blessed. David just bocchi the rocked my freaking socks off. Gets me so emotional. This video gets 504 slaps out of 10. EPIC.

[@nonononothere]

I personally love bassists from Bang dream. Their VAs also perform live so respects for them!

[@greenbean1576]

anyone else thought the video ended at 1:43 ?

[@SacredHelper4]

Davie is the kind of person who would play at a gender reveal party and the gender is revealed he just takes out either his pink or blue bass and plays a song Edit: I don't do that weird shit but I would find it funny if I saw a video of it

[@M_SC]

Ew no he rejects gender reveal parties as does the rest of the world

[@r.a.s5177]

That is the weirdest anology every

[@schultz7687]

i'd never expect davie to slap that hard on " guitar, loneliness and blue planet "

[@uselessimp5179]

Huge shame you missed the drunk bass player, there is a stree performance scene and another where Bocchi goes to see her acid rock band live, both were pretty amazing.

[@Silent-1119]

sirens in the distant started just as they began 2:58 and thought it was part of the anime like "damn this sounds awesome with sirens"

[@gedegosali6281]

I think you forgot 1 anime Davie. In "Sakamichi No Apollon" or "Kids on the Slope", there is also a bassist. He is Mukae Tsutomu, the father of Mukae Ritsuko (main heroin), and the leader of The Mukae Tsutomu Quartet. He plays the double bass and I think he is very good especially if you like jazz music

[@illumi142]

1:26 ada Indonesia Coy!!!

[@alfiial7916]

Lu napa dah

[@wantedxd3316]

overprot

[@Danime83o]

For those curious, the drunken bassist in Bocchi The Rock is a reference of Hiroi Margaret, the bassist of "88Kasyo Junrei", a Psychodelic Rock band from Japan.

[@felixstoll2277]

Never stop Anime bassists! We need more of them, always!
