| Dark ruby is the goat. And she is super cute when entering dark mode. Oshi no Ko always 10/10 |
 |
| What's "The 15-Year Lie" proposal right before the ED? (use spoiler box) |
*kappa* |
| Absolute cinema. Also lmao Hina Kino voices the crow girl. Wonderhoy!!!!! |
| I am now officially invested in this series. I thought we would get more of an understanding between Aqua and Dark Ruby but they definitely teased us. I need more of this! As a believer in Akane supremacy, during the whole Akane x Ruby scene, never have I been quick to go from "NO! NO! NO!" to "YES! YES! YES!" That post credit scene scared me thinking that it was her for a sec. Overall, this was my favorite show this season. The animation was well done and the character development and plot building was all on point! Happy that season 3 was announced. Things are about to go insane! Score: 9.1/10 |
| Season 2 Ends with AQUA's revenge, and Season 3 Starts with RUBY's revenge. |

W season, giving this 8/10 since we were suffered by the Tokyo Blade arc which lasted 9 episodes (and as a manga reader, i can confirm that the tokyo blade arc is straight fillers)
see you guys in the 3rd season
see you guys in the 3rd season
| @ItsAmsyar I am truly glad that, as a fellow manga reader, I am not the only one who does not like the Tokyo Blade arc. While most people are hyping that shit up. |

| Fuck, I was nothing but tense the whole episode, even the Pop In 2 MV was not enough to alleviate the tension. The Pop In 2 MV was amazing though, but I can't help but be unsettled everytime Dark Star Ruby appeared. While, I was unsettled, it still looked really cool and honestly made the MV even better. While I am Team Kana all the way, Akane and Aqua was cute, but of course I am very sad for Kana. Though, once Aqua learns his father is still alive, Akane will probably unfortunately go back to being Aqua's tool, even if Akane doesn't really mind. Man, what a twist of fate, just as Aqua has ended his revenge, Ruby's now the one that's awakened her dark stars, but she's relying on Aqua to exact their revenge and she doesn't know he's already given up. I wonder how Aqua will find out his father's still alive. I really want to start reading the manga, but the anime experience is just too good. I'll see if I end up reading it, since I heard it's almost at the end anyway, but I'll put it at the back of the list, since I have other stuff I wanna read anyway. Anyway, this season was amazing, Tokyo Blade Arc, delicious, Return to Miyazaki Arc, scrumptious. I am so glad a season 3 was immediately announced, I hope Oshi no Ko gets a full adaptation. Would be perfect if Kaguya Season 4 gets announced soon as well. |

| Gosh I feel so sorry for Ruby, I can feel her pain. Great conclusion to the season and a setup for the next one. I look forward for more. This season overall was sensational. The first 2-3 episodes were calm and uninteressting but after that each episode got better and better. Same with season 1 this is an easy 9/10 for me. And probably putting Oshi no Ko now on my favourite anime list. |
| Doga Kobo went above and beyond on this adaptation. I'm excited for season 3 and so happy that it's confirmed. |
| Bruh. I thought this was coming out on Wednesday. Nearly missed this. No freaking way. Aqua kissed Akane again but it was for real this time. I feel so happy for her. But I also feel bad for Kana... :( I wonder how she interpreted what Akane said in the bath. So, Ruby awakened her dark star eyes. Ngl she looks terrifying with them. She's Aqua's sister after all. The new MV of B Komachi was really cute. And man Ruby looked so menacing in it. Loved it. Man, that was a great finale which also left me craving for more which is what I think a finale should be like. And sure enough, they already announced Season 3... While that's great news, it does make me wonder how the studio Doga Kobo is doing. I think it was one thing for Season 2 to be released not long after 1 but a 3rd season so soon? Probably gonna have to wait longer for this one. If not, I feel bad for the staff since they struggled to put out Season 2 episodes in time and even got the final episode delayed. I just hope that Season 3's production will go more smoothly. It almost seems like Ruby took Aqua's place. That post-credits scene was crazy. I wonder if Kamiki only goes after actresses with starry eyes. I feel bad for all the people he manipulated. This season was amazing. Maybe even better than Season 1. I am eagerly anticipating what comes next. Especially more great reveals. |
| Holy damn is Ruby scary af in the Pop In 2 MV, Doga Kobo captured her "transformed" essence perfectly |

| Corrupted Ruby is finally here !!!!!!!! and she awaken her Dark Mangekyou Star Eyes too lmao, can't wait for the 3rd Season !!!! |
 |
| Man I will never stop loving Aqua and Ruby's father he's so majestic, Ruby has finally entered her villain arc and of course I'm sad for her as she's basically going down Aqua's dark path. But really I'm just happy were getting more Ruby in season three since Ruby and Aqua are my favourite characters. I'm guessing eventually Aqua will hop back on the murder his father train when he realises he's still alive. Excited for season three, season two was much better than the first season. Ill be surprised if they manage to top s2's opening though. |
| Lol Ruby's got pretty, she is now more entertaining. Their father was a boy? Hmm, didn't expect tha Ai fell in love with some brat. So what did we see at the end i hope it was't Akane but just some random chic ? Akane is a great character. I loved sces with little girl, however we got some mysterious character and paranormal. However i wish she didn't have any direct contact with twins. |
 |
| Oh no not Ruby too Her going dark mode it's unnecessary, weird and cringey. Leave that to Aqua or their crazy ass Daddy |

| You know it getting serious when Ruby awakening her Mangekyo Sharingan Dark Star eyes. What a great eps to ending season 2, season 3 got announced and I hope the best art get adapted. |
  What Does Pot of Greed do?  |

| @ssjjfar The scene clearly shows a short boy that looks like Aqua and the stalker that killed Gorou and Ai being taller than he is. I will let you do the rest of the math. |

| @ssjokg I'm going off what crowgirl was saying, but heighwise you probably right, wasn't gonna go back and look they both were young. |
| The POP IN music video was very nice. I think this is Oshi No Ko's best arc, nothing really comes close though the twist are certainly something as the plot moves forward. Season 3 as expected. |

| @ssjjfar And Ai was killed 4 years later so a bum collage student that couldnt graduate because he spend more time on being an Ai simp is very easily possible. |
| Ruby and her darkness, the true didn't bring anything good to her!!! Well, we know the assessin face now!!! kekeke |
| I really loved this season. Definitely a step up from season 1. I'm very excited for season 3 particularly since we'll be getting more Mamoru Miyano - I like when he plays villains. I was really rooting for Kana but I didn't want Akane getting her heart broken either.. though I feel like that will be coming at some point. I didn't particularly like Ruby but I've loved these past few episodes that have brought her back into the story. Her revenge mode is scarier than Aqua's. The MV at the end is super cute!! A lot of love & effort was put into this season.. the couple of delays made me concerned so I hope they take more time with season 3 or bring in more staff. |

| Ruby has those dark eyes now. Interesting. I hope she'll take on a bigger role in the next season. |
| This is what I waited for.. a shame it was all deviated by the play for over 10 episodes. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Did I miss something? How did Ruby jump to the conclusion that Aqua is looking for a murderer? I mean, she could consider it a possible reason for his actions, but from what I saw, she didn’t have proof to be 100% sure (only Akane's answer, but again, 'because there’s someone he wants to meet in showbiz' doesn’t necessarily mean he’s looking for a murderer). And funnily enough, because of that conclusion, she’ll now think Aqua is continuing his investigation, but he isn’t. |
 |
| Well for anime onlies I hope you’re ready because season 3 is where the hype for oshi no ko really gets going. Season 2 was way more enjoyable in anime form for me with the play not being one of my fave parts of the manga, but the detective drama and unravelling the mystery of Ai’s murder and the twins father in s3 is gonna be amazing. Shoutout to Doga Kobo for the amazing job they did here. Finale in general was perfect, had some of my most anticipated moments of the season and perfectly brought them to life. Aqua dumbass finally appreciating what he got in front of him with the Akane and all she’s done for him, that kiss was everything for me π the way Akane couldn’t even focus in the bath because she was thinking about it is so cute I love her sm While Akane on cloud nine though, Ruby descending to hell. Her black star awakening scene was so good, no one does these moments like Doga Kobo. I can’t wait to see her quest for revenge in season 3. Her going from this happy go lucky idol stan to cold and calculated character will be fun. Pop in 2 performance was really good. I need a real life ILLIT x B Komachi collab lol. That ending montage!! 15 year lie reference and some other massive stuff from later in the manga+ Kamiki doing what he does best, being a murderous psycho. Can’t wait for season 3 man. Doga Kobo really cooked with this one and elevated the story. The best is yet to come though! |
