Okay but people keep calling 'Bocchi the Rock!' a slice of life show...

It's literally a character drama about social anxiety, the music is just the vehicle. I checked the director's notes from an interview last year and he said the same thing. Anyone else get annoyed when a show gets put in the wrong box?

Exactly! It's pure character study.

What's next, calling a car chase scene a quiet nature documentary? I'm with @finley777 on this, it's a deep look at one person's headspace. The band stuff is just how they show her fight with her own brain. People slap the slice of life label on anything with a school in it now.
