I was thinking about checking it out, but I heard some strange things about it. Like that there's age regression and incest-y vibes. The plot synopsis makes it seem like that could be true lol. With it being an idol show too, I was wondering if this show is more of an otaku-pandering type thing that gets popular on reddit or if it's more than that?

No don't worry about it, There's nothing of the sort in Oshi No Ko at all. So check it out if you want to. It's really good

Wow this thread is embarrassing, I’m sorry as a fan of this show I can see why you may perhaps assume that, so without telling you anything I’ll say give the first episode a watch. The less you know the better! If you don’t like it at the end of the episode it’s not for you

i've personally seen all the episodes so far and i can tell you it does not give off those kind of vibes, the anime does not need any of that at all. story goes a lot deeper than that

The onset of the series is indeed peculiar given what the later stuff is about. You can even say it's stupid as it wasn't needed.

The synopsis is essentially taken care of in the first episode, which is where the "weird" premise gives way to a thrilling plot which portrays a more realistic depiction of the idol industry. And as you've probably read, the twins are reincarnated, but retain their original minds.

Not fetishistic enough.

But for a serious answer, there isn't incest and "age regression" is more like reincarnation which isn't exactly the same. It got popular because its from the same author as Kaguya-sama and the "shocking" first episode.

I know you already know this but don't believe everything said on the internet. The only way to truly know what the show is about is to watch it. And it isn't what you thought people say it is. Yes, it is an idol show but it's more than that, it explores the inner workings of the entertainment industry, and it gives you an insider view of how dark the industry actually is compared to what it presents.

yeah no, not at all. the plot synopsis is one of the worst synposis' ive ever seen and i recommend people not read it before watching. i made the mistake of reading it and thought this was some weird satirical crude sex joke ecchi type isekai. and its completely different in every way shape and form. its very normal, and has a story that fits the typical mainstream safe agenda.

sakuta never comes any closet to kaede to it to be called incest, he is only taking care of her! the joke that kaede does are on purpose to show off How little she knows about the world! it's not like suguha from SAO.

Dont worry, this isnt Bocchi the Rock.

Whoever you heard/read about this show having incest vibes/age regression from sounds like they've been reading/watching way too much hentai.

literally the polar opposite of what you just said 😂. I’ve never had an incest vibe from it and it’s main plot line is exposing the entertainment industry, from idol culture to acting etc. But even still it’s more than that. Just give it a go yfm

Whatever you heard was clearly wrong because there’s no incest type anything in this anime lmao.

Not at all.

Oshi no Ko isn’t pandering in that manner, in fact, a major point of the show is criticising the industries where those things often run rampant in scandals.

hopefully russia nukes all of these retards.

I don't even support russia or china, but I would be fucking glad if the amerimutts trigger a war in the south china seas, or escalates in Ukraine, because it will eventually lead to nuclear war and the deaths of 99% of all amerimutt subhumans.

from the looks of it, the amerimutt golems really are heading towards this by their provocations, so I am glad and can sleep well to see the amerimutt golem empire fall to ruin in my life time (btw I don't even support the cpp or the kremlin, I just want amerimutts and their influences to all disappear)

good news is, that burgerstan is about to default on their debts the end of this month,
and to cope they even left the quad submit lmao.

also the rest of the world is de-dollarizing already once the petrol dollar is no longer the worlds most used currency,

the entire amerimutt economy will collapse like a house of cards, and burgerstan will devolve into a massive civil war with riots all over the country. 
its going to be much worse than 2008 and the great depression(especially since china actually bailed burgerstan out in 2008, but of course they won't this time)

it would be glorious.

Hello.


People who say this has "incest" are the same people who think the gag crush Becky from Spy X Family has for LLoid is "pedophilic". Or coomerbrained hentai addicts producing fanart and fanfics out of it. So, weirdos and freaks.
 
 
If by otaku pandering you meant moe-moe-kyun vibes and pure clumsy waifus, hell lol no. Ai is literally pregnant of twins, and the industry of entertaiment is mostly depicted as a soul eating machine who cares only about money, not art or talent.
 
 
I dont know what do you mean by "fetishistic". You are not seeing lots of panty shots of underaged kiddos or boob grabs, if that's what you meant.


"Age regression?". Well, I guess, but not in a creepy fetishy way, who I guess is what you are talking about. By episode 2 the MCs are already 14/15, their times are weird talking babies is very short-lived.



TL;DR, either you got feed by trolls, creepoids projecting their fetishes on the show, or twitter hipster weirdos (also, plz, NEVER use twitter for anything but to see fanarts, or follow proper news channels for fast breaking news; for everything else this hellhole is just multiple bubbles of mentally ill narcisists trying to get angry all days for free).

This show is completely asexual when taken in the context of sexual fetishes and idol culture. I won't talk about incest to avoid any spoilers, but it's also not an imouto type of show. The main non-child content in this show is to criticize the psychological impact of show business on the audience and the celebrities themselves, as well as the very idea of an idol in general.

It seems to me that more anti-pedo people are obsessed with SxF than actual pedophiles. Because the Fodger family clearly sees each other as a surrogate family, and Becky's crush on Loyd is always played like childish nonsense.
