Sheesh Aqua even took out the glasses to try to be like his past self lol. Looks like Ruby was able to cheer up Aqua a little, hopefully he'll be able to "smile" again.

And that kiss oof, gotta catch him off guard huh? Ig that was the only way to get them to kiss lmao. Aqua was mega shooketh fr.

Never ending plan to watch list...

Incest no Ko strikes again…

Nah more than anything this shit is so funny to me. I ain’t mad or anything lol.

@IzanaSolos

Totally agree, I hope authors have good laugh by seeing how people reacted to this. (kinda wonder how this affects views and manga sales)

but in the same time I'm kinda irritated how many people didn't saw this obvious outcome... probably it was combination of denial and reading comprehension of half baked potato.

Manga recommendation:
- Spy x Family (Ch.108/? - biweekly) | Sakamoto Days (Ch.195/? - weekly)
- MARRIAGETOXIN (Ch.110/? - weekly) | Machi and Oboro (Ch.18/? - biweekly)
- Make the Exorcist Fall in Love (Ch.80/? - biweekly)
- Monochrome Days (Ch.10/? - biweekly)
Anime recommendation:
- Deca-Dence (Finished) | Wave, Listen to Me! (Finished)
- If My Favorite Pop Idol Made It to the Budokan, I Would Die (Finished)

I hate that I didn’t despise that as much as I should have-

I just don’t get how people are dropping the whole manga over this, sure, it’s a VERY unhinged relationship, but it’s fiction lol. Yeah, sure, I still like Aqua x Kana better, but that change doesn’t make Oshi no Ko any less of a masterpiece IMO.

@Atsunome Lmao this'll make the manga a masterpiece for me. Aka and Mengo surely planned Chapter 143 to be released on 14/3 with Ruby saying 143. They also planned the one week break between 142 and 143.

Bruh this chapter is hilarious. It was nice to see aquas true feelings spill out but man Ruby did not hold back. I don't think it will go down the incest route. it's quite obvious that it's not gonna happen but still that kiss scene was funny asf, watching many lose their shit. it was bound to happen eventually. The Twincest is hilarious 😂 😭😭🤣🤣 Ruby's real emotions 🤣😂

even tho im against the twincest route i have to say that wasnt as bad as i thought. guess thats just a storm warning and waiting for the fade to black scene thatll come later but supposedly that was the climax of the movie
wonder if ai wrote something about the doc in the movie, idr if anyone was casted for that role but shouldnt the hospital stay also be another major point in the documentary

I’m surprised a lot of ppl didn’t see this coming like it was foreshadowed since CHAPTER FUCKING ONE how did you haters not see this coming??😭🤦🏽‍♂️😭🤦🏽‍♂️😭🤦🏽‍♂️😭😭

I for one am gonna keep reading this and see where this goes and lowkey idk why but I’m rooting for Sarina bc she had cancer in her first life and wasn’t able to live a full love and fall in love with the person she loved. She transcended death, got reincarnated with a healthy body she deserved to be with whoever she wants to be with🥹🩷

Well this is... something. It's not exactly the direction I'd liked to see this manga going, and I'm still a little bit confused by this desicion as a whole. In general in this chapter Ruby's behaviour made me cringe hard lmao. So for that and the fact that the story acknowledges that she is a blind follower of Aqua and that he is a very fucked up person, I still have hope that this fucked-up ass relationship won't be really endorsed and romanticized. I'm not sure that's the intention, but considering the overall tone of the series this far I can just hope. The previous chapter about the "responsibility of telling stories" made me conclude that Aka and Mengo are doing this 100% on purpose and conciously (at this point I'm also sure that the mangaka characters are pretty much tools for Aka to exteriorize his thoughts regarding manga industry as a whole).
As I said in my post above, even though I don't really endorse this, I won't drop the manga, there is still some things I want to read regarding this story and if this ends up romanticizing this relationship (which I hope it doesn't) I'll guess I'll do the best to shut my brain off and criticize it with a friend of mine that holds the same stance as I in all this bullshit.

For me, this chapter was top-notch after ages. Finally, some serious character growth!

a loud silence
deep breath
I have two sides: One side says what did I read,
the other side says this thing is so cute.

After all, it happened and we cannot change it. This is the punishment for our sins. We deserved it. But I think everything was pretty sweet until the kiss. Between the devil and the deep sea. I was left on the edge of the cliff. But it will be strange to see what will happen in the next episodes and watch the reactions of other characters.

Another bait and switch in the end....seriously!! Everything is set for Aqua to fail and have everyone hate him like it was foreshadowed. Eclipse said it was a bad move and now should be obvious for everyone why it's the case.....he will go down rock bottom (probably)....because his trauma will kick in again after all of this....most likely...and then he will get up....but that will have a price...most likely in blood...it was foreshadowed as well. (Think back at Tokyo Blade!!)
People need to pay more attention to the meta-commentary...You're supposed to hate Aqua at this moment for his stupid pursuit of revenge and think that Hikaru was just a victim...because the two characters who were always in the right were right...what do you know? But he will take responsability....Akasaka as well because subtext on storytelling....meaning Aqua will suffer like never before.

I never thought that I've seen something that can sell an earned happy ending more than the last chapters...
People who might have a negative reaction are acting this way because of their investment and projection, not because of the writing...it's still consistent/good writing...Welcome to the real world of entertainment!! We have acting!!

When the doctor and his dying patient who had a crush on him are reincarnated as siblings, thus leading down a road that ultimately ends with incest: 🤯🤯🤯🤯

All jokes aside though, this outcome was painfully obvious from the jump so there really shouldn’t be any 🤯 reactions. Personally though, not a fan of it. Quite literally zero reason to throw some reincarnation thing into the story and have a grown adult and young child become siblings. I legit believe the story could still work in the exact same way if you take away the “past lives” and reincarnation stuff, and just have Aqua and Ruby be who they are from the beginning, but as childhood friends who worshipped the same idol and are now working together to find the person responsible for her death.

Hopefully this is the extent of it and it doesn’t escalate any further than kissing for the movie scene. And those who think this somehow “improves” the story are just straight weird lol.

@thebrentinator24 Yeah the story should be safe and predictable. Every form of entertainment should be as close to my hero and demon slayer as possible. If the manga is causing the reader to think at all that is bad. It's poor writing if the reader is given a complex scenario that defies real life logic while bending what you believe if right or wrong.

If you died today and were reborn as a someone else, but retained your memories from your past(current) life, would you still be you?

If you were married to a woman, and she also died and was reborn as your sibling, also retaining her memories, would you and her now disgust each other?

Don't have a panic attack, its not real. There is no recorded history or evidence of someone being born with memories of a previous life. This is all for entertainment and personally the darker and more bizarre it is the better. If I wanted a generic happy love story there's thousands (if not millions) of other options out there across all mediums.

I can't believe he pulled the same trick as the sex scene in Love is war. End one chapter with a massive cliff hanger as to if the thing is gonna happen, then build up thinking it won't only to pull the rug out and do it anyway. It's the exact same trick and it worked better than last time.

Let's put aside the incest for a second somehow. Sarina and Goro's relationship is messed up too.

I think this isn't going the incest route, Aqua really does not like this, but man, Ruby needs help...

I have told way too many people to watch the anime for this to happen, they will never listen to me again.
