March has been a big month for physical releases of popular anime, so it'd be understandable if some of the earlier releases in 2024 slipped past you. Let's take a look at a handful of the anime releases you have missed in January and February.
Bocchi the Rock
First up is Bocchi: The Rock, a must-watch anime series for anyone who loves music. Hitori Gotoh, a high school girl and talented guitarist who dreams of rock stardom but is also incredibly introverted, is eventually pulled out of her socially inept shell when she joins a local band. Dubbed Bocchi-chan by her bandmates, Gotoh finally finds a platform to help her grow and face her severe social anxiety, little by little. Bocchi: The Rock is a terrific combination of polished visuals and a killer soundtrack, mixed with endearing characters and hard-rocking performances. The Blu-ray includes all 12 episodes from the first season, promos, and clean credit sequences.

Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean
Another anime to check out but with a far more confident heroine is Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean. January's release for Part 1 of the saga contains 18 episodes, both English and Japanese language tracks, clean credit sequences, and a 48-page booklet in this limited-edition release. This Jojo series focuses on Jolyne Cujoh--and yes there is a Jolyne song reference in one episode--as she finds herself locked up in the Green Dolphin Street Prison. Framed for a crime she didn't commit, Jolyne has to get to the bottom of a mystery that will bring the war between the Joestar family and Dio to a fateful end.
