| Rahhhh Akane masterclass! Loved every moment of she and Aqua and hanging out. Detective Akane about to get to work on the case and I can’t wait to see how they handle what she cooks up next. Kana part of the episode was well.. if I speak I’m in big trouble, but I did find it hilarious she had an Aquakane picture saved on her phone 😭 whole time on that date Aqua was just thinking about being direct with Akane, which is about damn time. She’s carried the story the least you can do is be honest with her. “So you don’t need me anymore. I knew from the start you had a cunning side.” HUG HER DAMN IT. I guess Aqua was honest and didn’t wanna lie since he definitely had intended to use her but still. The fact Akane knows this and still wants to be around him and help him just shows how clear she is as best girl. She’s determined to help carry that burden and even willing to commit crimes for him, how can you not love her. The murder suicide lore was a little heavy even for her tho lmao. THE ENDING OMG. People had been fan casting Ishida Akira for Kamiki, but Miyano Mamoru sounded awesome and that lead in to the ED will never get old. “Burning” has really grown on me. |

Mamo-chan is too goated he and Matsuoka are literally the best voices you could pick to play any antagonist with an aura or a charm. |
| Aqua reluctantly following B-Komachi to their R&R and filming in Miyazaki, and here's Kana trying to fit his cute or sexy (?) tastes because she's just that into him, even if it's on a casual date to buy a suitcase. But when even the colour of the suitcase he wants matches her glowstick colour, and him offering to hold her handbag for a moment, Kana really just wants to savor her moments between her and the former 30-year-old doctor who knows how to treat women, but doesn't want to get romantically involved too much in the way of his revenge, that now has all but completely ceased. Kana and her fantasy ideas though, she ALMOST had it with Aqua. From one girl to another, Aqua dealing with Akane is quite the different matter since she's related much to the double suicide case, but she literally has no substance for him anymore, which leaves the business relationship nowhere but to break up, which also has to do with time as well, and Akane herself knows it by going back to the same bridge where the latter almost lost her life with Aqua saving her out of her rut back then. Even then, he opens up to her of his extensive behind-the-scenes DNA testing that eventually amounted to nothing. Akane knows that this is not truly the end of his suffering, and Ruby visiting Ai's grave while a mysterious man also comes with offerings...he's definitely one to watch over the family drama as their biological father. From one trip to the next, this drama only gets spicy from here on out. |
 |
All fun and dandy till the revenge plot comes back into play, watching Akane distorted by the realization that escape Aqua is quite unnerving. |
| maybe im just really dumb right now, but can somebody explain me that "loophole" which akane is mentioning? |

| @Nepgear2206 I think by loophole is that akane realised that the person whom aqua think is his father is not actually his father because she realised the possibility that probably himekawa's mother cheated on his husband and the results was himekawa born and the person with whom himekawa's mom cheated her husband, is the man that made Ai pregnant. |
| This episode actually gave me goosebumps. I knew it couldn't end in such a plain manner, there had to be something more. But I didn't expect for Akane to be the one to realise the whole "mastermind" plan that was omitted by Aqua since the whole story made sense from his perspective. I'm so excited to Akane to spill the beans and see what's going to happen next. Amazing episode, probably was the best episode this whole season. |

| @SabreDrago ohh that makes sense. now get it. Thanks a lot! |
|
| Kana was so cute this episode I love how flustered she gets about Aqua. We got to see Aqua's and Ruby's father now I can't wait to learn more about him. |
What kind of muzan is this? So this is the father who returns after buying cigarettes |
 |
| mamo-chan lezgoooo! |
| Bruh. Kana's excited noises remind me so much of Kaguya from Love is War. Kana is what Kaguya would be like if she wasn't so into love being a war. Speaking of which, where the hell is Kaguya-sama Season 4??? Anyway, I feel bad for Akane. She was in a fake relationship for half a year and she knew that her "boyfriend" only wanted to "use" her. It would've been abusive if she didn't internally consent to it. But still feel bad that Aqua like half-rejected her (Kinda? Idk wth happened on the bridge). I love both Kana and Akane. I might root for Akane more than Kana now but doesn't mean I hate Kana. I'll feel bad no matter whoever loses. Akane proving again why she's the smartest character of the bunch. She instantly discovered another possibility whereas Aqua accepted the "truth" quite easily. That Himekawa's "father" wasn't actually their biological father and the mother potentially had both of them from a different person. I was spoiled so I already knew he wasn't the dad but even without spoilers, it's not that hard to figure out what was overlooked, and no way this was going to be so easy. I don't completely blame Aqua tho. He has been on this revenge quest for such a long time and he got tired and started making mistakes. It's good that his soul found closure for now. But it's going to be devastating if he finds out that his "dad" is still out there, potentially impregnating more women and killing them in clever ways. I wonder if Akane will be the one to break the ice to him. Speaking of the dad, his entrance was amazing. And he's voiced by freaking Mamoru Miyano himself?! I didn't realize it was him while I was watching it. This was a crazy revelation. Can't wait to see how this cat and mouse chase will unfold. |
| too much Kana screentime, I would prefer less of that specific side character |
 |
| I live for this to finally be adapted, this is literally a dream come true. Thank you Doga Kobo. |
 |
| Wasn't the father dead? Now another character appears and says that Ruby is his daughter. Did Ai have children from 2 different men? Impossible for them to be twins! The lies must be cleared up! kekeke |
| Akane's so great, that was both adorable but also sad. I really hope the best for her. Looks like she realised the loophole that Aqua missed. Things got intense at the end there and the revenge is far from over as the guy himself appeared. Also lmao who better to voice him than Miyano Mamoru, should have known. |

| Akane it's Jover (ig?) This started so light and cute and ended in such disgust. Seeing Kana being this delusional and downbad for Aqua is so cute. The entire date was her wildest dreams coming true.  Aqua rizzed her up so well in every move. Paying bill, picking white for her penstick, reserving resturant (btw why a empty restaurant need reservation) and it made her happy as he intended for sure. After being "freed' Aqua finally trying to taste joys of life like romance for.. Date ended with (not a)bang with Kana running her fantasies whole hitting with a cold water "He dropped me at home"🤣🤣😭😭 While the other side of the coin Aqua confronts Akane to discuss about their ongoing "business" relationship. Aqua finally wanted to end it as he doesn't want to keep dragging Akane along and using her for his own wims. Akane was fully aware of Aqua only wanting to use her but she didn't really complained as she genuinely wanted to help him. Maybe Aqua did have a point that Akane herself isn't really sure is she really loved him romantically. Kana has been way to clear that she indeed does. Akane has been supportive of Aqua all time and he also saved her but both of them didn't really take the step to close the distance between them.  But seeing this still hurts Akane still really cared about him. I wish her all the best.🥲 Sure that was painful for Akane but how much pain and suffering waiting for Aqua when he will be aware that his revenge isn't complete. 5 million spent on 100 DNA test that's what 17 years of dedication does. I can totally understand he wanting to free himself so he can finally move on and that's why omitted the potential loophole. Akane as the genius figured out details instantly. Well the scum is alive... It was like a punch to the gut. I expected some nice date & romantic episode then they hit with this as always with OnK. Can't wait for this scum to get torn to pieces..(hopefully) |

| Kana won't waste her chance to go on a date with Aqua, Kana doesn't know what to wear for the date and thanks to Doga Kobo for animating such a great sequence. Kana helps Aqua to realize that love is the freedom of a human being and she says this not for herself but for Aqua who already feels free to feel other things besides her revenge. Kana was completely conquered by Aqua on this date, her expectations were always broken by Aqua, but not for the last one instead of being sent home lol, Kana's imagination was too wild. Aqua thinks about what he should do about his relationship with Akane, Aqua wants to break up with Akane because he thinks that he feels guilty for using Akane's intelligence for his own interests, Akane tells him that she really has feelings for Aqua because from the beginning Aqua has helped Akane from the foolishness she did in the past. Aqua opens up to Akane and tells her that the purpose of her life has been lost, namely her father who turned out to be a cheater and he committed suicide along with his wife too, Akane realizes something that is a gap that Aqua does not realize that his biological father is not the one who committed suicide but another, Akane is confused about what to do because she does not want to interfere with the pleasure of freedom that Aqua is experiencing. HIKARU KAMIKI IS HERE BABYYYY AND OH MY GOD MAMO-CHAN AS HIKARU ITS TO GOATED, PERFECT VA. Really looking forward to more scenes of Mamo-chan as Hikaru in the future, and finally we are almost there with one of the epic moments in this show, Dark Ruby incoming.  |

| I enjoyed Aqua and Kana's date, they had some cute moments. It's also hilarious how she was hoping for a different kind of meat, only to get sent home instead. Our boy actually seemed happy and like he's finally given up on revenge, which is nice. ...But unfortunately, good things never last in [Oshi no Ko]. Detective Akane's such a genius that she's already figured out his father is still alive just from one short conversation. I do wish we saw more of her thought process, though that might spoil later plot points. And then we see Big Daddy himself, which is an amazing build-up to the Miyazaki arc. I'm looking forward to how this season ends, as that's one of my favourite parts in the manga. |

| It was obvious that the guy wasn't their real father. Still I don't understand what the loophole that Akane mentioned is. |
| This episode had at least some part of it dedicated to each girl (except Mem-cho for some reason). Aqua went on a pseudo date with Kanna were she was basically bamboozled the whole way through and now has expectations for the trip. Then he basically broke up with Akane not before laying out his honest feelings about it and what made him stop pursuing revenge. However, it seems like she's one step ahead of everyone since she figure out that it's actually not the case and Ruby could have been a witness of it after her visit to Ai's grave. Something gone go down hard in the next few episodes, I'm sure of it. |

| I want to give it more credit for actually having Aqua miss something with this being intentional, but I'm fairly sure that the loophole Akane is talking about isn't the one I was thinking of (the timeline making the whole murder plot impossible) |
| Hang on, I'm not sure if I got this right. Does that mean Aqua's half-brother is actually Ai's son from the dead father? If so, then she got banged pretty damn early lmao. |
No, this isn't my signature-desu. |
| I know there's one more episode to this season but... I need a season 3 ASAP lol |
