[Oshi No Ko] Season 3

Ruby on action! Can't wait for the next episode

I love how this episode handles adult content makers, controversy, and sexual harassment in the industry. You can see and feel every character's distress and understand their POV. You can see where each of them is coming from. Plus, Ruby is brilliant and calculating. I enjoyed!

I loved this episode. Aqua and Akane's relationship is honestly adorable, even with Aqua's feelings. And I love seeing this more calculating side of Ruby. I like comparing her with the version of her from the earlier seasons, because everything is so much more of an act now.

Oshi No Ko is a work of art when it comes to animation, storytelling, and characters, as always. It definitely shows the darker sides of stardom, and represents what a fixation on revenge or a person can do to you. The conversation between Kana and Memcho was emotional and raw.

I read the manga before so I already know what's going to happen but my god I just wanna say that every season, they really made a good job adapting this piece to a masterpiece! Can't wait to see more of Ruby plans to be adapted soon ⊙⁠﹏⁠⊙

First time watching Oshi no Ko and immediately fell in love with the anime. I like that the show the dark side of being an idol/ entertainment industry

This is so the best anine

Okay, finding out Hikaru was only fifteen when Ai got pregnant seriously makes me feel so much worse about everything, especially since he's the dad. My perception of Ai's whole murder just got completely twisted, and it makes me wonder what other dark secrets are hiding in their past.

My jaw kinda dropped seeing just how tangled the production committees and legal stuff are behind the scenes; no wonder projects often get so messy. I'm honestly just annoyed for the animators and creators now, knowing how much their vision must get compromised by all those hoops they have to jump through.

I'm just so frustrated watching Aqua realize he was totally blind to all those obvious hints about his dad, like how could he have missed them? Now that everything's crumbling for him, the episode title

That look Ruby gave at the very end just sent shivers down my spine, honestly. I was so caught off guard, realizing then how much she truly orchestrated that whole apology setup behind the scenes; she's definitely got a darker side I hadn't fully considered.

Meiya putting in all that meticulous effort on the costumes, only for the director to just dismiss her like that, really got under my skin. I swear, it just makes me wonder how many talented people behind the scenes get treated like dirt in this industry, and it makes my blood boil for her.

When the director showed up in that ridiculous handmade outfit to apologize, my first thought was just how disingenuous it all looked, a total slap in the face after his past behavior. But then the chilling realization hit me that this was probably Ruby's manipulative hand at work, forcing a performance, and it just reinforces my feeling that genuine emotion is a rare commodity in their twisted entertainment world.

Ruby’s knowing look when Aqua confronted her on the way back home totally gave me chills; it was like she already knew everything he was going to say. I'm starting to think she's been playing 4D chess with everyone this whole time, and I'm really curious to see if Aqua even realizes how far ahead she is.

Watching Ruby break down over everyone she loves dying, while Akane and Frill just watched her, really showed how much she is suffering beneath that idol smile she always wears

I am still reeling from Kana announcing her graduation so suddenly and the way she talked about being a lesser panda really hurt to listen to because she has worked so hard for B-Komachi and Aqua is just treating her like a tool for his revenge movie while she is blushing over him saying she is special

I can't believe Akane figured out it was Hikaru Kamiki just from those old theater tapes, but those white roses have me terrified that she is next on his list

My skin crawled when Ruby asked the director to keep using her because she sounded just like Aqua and her eyes were so cold and I hate that she is losing her innocence for this industry

When Aqua just completely broke down in the rain, learning his father was still out there, it honestly sent shivers down my spine. The way his past self materialized felt like such a cruel taunt, and I'm just so worried about how much deeper he's going to sink into this revenge quest.

Aqua's lifeless eyes at the very end totally froze me, it's clear he's gone beyond just searching for Hikaku now. I just know he's going to dive headfirst into something super dangerous to get to the bottom of this, and my stomach drops thinking about how far he's willing to go.
