Bocchi the Rock! Gaiden: Kikuri Hiroi's Heavy Drinking Diary - Ch. 23 - Ch. 23

This shows how Sideros prepped to win the competition, which is nice since we just saw how they just simply won Mikakunin Riot in the main story.

That said, Sick Hack being a former winner is a big lore drop imo. Though they must have won it at an older member age-wise (not how old the band was) because Sick Hack started kicking on after Hiroi got regularly drunk (and Eliza joined).
On the other hand Sideros winning it as a group of highschoolers meant that they are quite something.

So, just take all your strength and start playing anime songs while dead drunk. I never thought that the secret of rock success is so simple.

It's been over four months since anyone else did chapters of this manga. After such a long-ass time, anyone is within their right to pick-up a series that's not been touched for so long.
Ignore all the people calling it a "snipe" or complaining about your scans for such petty and unreasonable reasons.

Thanks for the TL this is great. Dont worry about it too much!

Good work on the TL! No shade to Unrelated Translations, but since they're taking so long i think it's only fair.

The secret to rock is being rock 👍

I gotta call bs on the mikakunin riot retcon. Hiroi and Shima are 25. Eliza moved to Japan at 18, 3 years ago. Mikakunin Riot is an event for teens only. So either they won 6 years ago without Eliza, or they won 2-3 years ago with the majority of their members being 22 or more.

Almost always when a group takes 3 months to release a chapter it's considered free game to pick it up, unrelated translations hasn't released in 4, and from what I know (and tried) they are pratically unreachable so contacting them to see if they were working on it sounds a bit unreasonable.

Thanks for picking the series up!

 

[KZO]

Oh, that's really cool, wasn't expecting that, and I don't think it was mentioned in the main series?

It's actually accurate. My bass playing improved exponentially after I picked up some anisong score books and tried playing along. Those girls are hardcore.
And of course I had a few drinks on the side.
