A Glimpse into the World of “Rock wa Shukujo no Tashinami desu”
For those unfamiliar with the series, “Rock wa Shukujo no Tashinami desu” (literally “Rock is a Lady’s Hobby”) tells the story of Ririsa Suzunomiya, a student at the prestigious Oshin Gakuen High School, where only the most refined ladies are accepted. Despite striving to earn the esteemed title of “Noble Maiden,” Ririsa harbors a secret: she was once a commoner who loved rock music and playing the guitar, a passion she suppressed to meet her mother’s expectations. Her life takes an unexpected turn when she encounters Otoha Kurogane, a fellow student who secretly plays the drums. This unexpected meeting ignites a youth rock anime where “true feelings” collide, exploring themes of authenticity, friendship, and the power of music. The series is currently available on various streaming services, and you can learn more on its official website: https://rocklady.rocks/
