Goodness, it feels so good just to step away from the African-American stress. Rex Club was so good with Bass Culture and the DJ played Electronic, Techno, and HOUSE with super deep bass. I wanted to Shazam the whole playlist. Oh my poor knees and I was drunk only off cranberry and strawberry fruit juice. It was a good mixed crowd. Hilarious moments are seeing European white folks and Asian Indians dance onbeat, offbeat, and crazy steps all combined into one. Bumping into people, touching each other, brushing up against each other, or accidentally stepping on each other's foot did not start any fights.

If you’re into Bocchi the Rock! and wondering if it was inspired by Asian Kung-Fu Generation, the answer is a little more nuanced. directly there's definitely a vibe that connects them. Hitori Gotou (aka Bocchi) is all about indie rock, and her world is a love letter to Japan’s alternative music scene, which includes iconic bands like AKFG.

Also the band member names Gotou, Ijichi, Yamada, and Kita appear in both Kessoku Band and Asian Kung-Fu Generation!

The introspective lyrics, energetic riffs, and aesthetic of Asian Kung-Fu Generation mirror the musical world Bocchi admires. And let’s not forget the killer album art designed by Yusuke Nakamura—if you've seen AKFG's covers, you’ll catch similar vibes in the visual style of Bocchi the Rock!

It's less about being "inspired" and more about Bocchi the Rock! celebrating the spirit of that indie rock culture that AKFG has been repping for years.

This years I cosplayed as Yamada san. I really love the bass sound and hope to learn to play it someday.
