So this girl is an idol, and despite knowing that idols forbidden to have a relationship by contract, she still decides to let some guy impregnate her, and instead of quitting an living save life, she continues to be an idol, which causes her to be killed. Did author really wants people to think that it not 50% her fault that she is killed? Of course nothing can justify murder, but if you break the rules, there's always consequences, especially in idol business, there's a tons of IRL stories similar to that. And then author desides to diss all media industry of Japan.

Being a manga reader of this show for 2 years this brings smile to me face the animation was perfect the voice acting was perfect everything was just PERFECTLY PHENOMENAL😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😩😩

I’m still surprised this has a score of 9.38 I’ve never seen a score that high before even when bleach aired back in fall it was only at a 9.22 so this being a 9.38 is insaneeeee😳

Cant wait for the next episode but I gotta say this show is about the Idol/acting industry so I don’t think this is gonna be a lot of ppls cup of tea🤷🏽‍♂️

I love that the episode had the full first volume in it without any major cuts. Also the artstyle changes in certain scenes were amazing. Looking forward to the rest of the show.

So.. I just finally decided to watch the episode today cause I kept seeing it all over MAL esp with the manga readers saying its really good as well as the people whose seen the 1st episode early..And I wont lie...THE FACT ITS #1 IN THE RANKINGS IS WELL DESERVED!!!! I wont say shes a bad mother, she never treated her kids badly and she did what she thought was best for them while also prioritizing her career at the same time. She spent time with them, she showed them nothing but love even if she may not have said it til the very, sad end :( but it was so beautiful to see how he understood what was going on with the murderer esp when the same person killed him. Aqua connected the dots real fast to their father. 

Let the revenge BEGIN!!!! I wont lie.. as much as I'm a FMA fan and all, I hope it stays #1 for a good long time cause I wont lie this 1 episode really grabbed every other anime by the nuts and said I'm the boss in this mfer LMFAO. 

I so would've looooovveeed to see a Mother and Daughter Idol combo. It would've been sick bringing her daughter on stage and revealing their mother n daughter then they both make the crowd go CRAZY with their talents. I wouldve love to have seen that be a thing. Ai Hoshino, may she rest in peace. Beautiful character 

10/10 OFF EP 1 ALONE!

Omg first pilot episode, 1 hour and 22 mins. basically a MOVIE.

I know there are a lot of hyped behind this Anime Adaptation, you know with other Manga that got an Anime it usually failed to meet the expectations but DOGA KOBO Delivering it HARD!!
wow i'm actually surprised by this, it really meet up to the HYPED.

I thought i'm going in for an Idol show, but it turns out to be a REVENGE STORY.

Absolutely Beautiful, crazy behind the scene about the dark side of Idol industry, that PLOT TWIST is INSANE.


Holy shit so they hired Rie Takahashi just for one episode?
RIP AI HOSHINO.

10/10 Masterpiece First Episode!!

Honestly, it's not a bad anime, and I did like it, but for it to have this much hype and people rating it to the top 1 in anime, is crazy. It def does not deserve #1, it's a normal average anime with drama. If you like a bit of comedy but also like drama animes then this is your go-to, but for anime fans that like a well written story that is intense, this is nothing for us. It's just a normal drama type anime with nothing really special in it, and for an anime like this to be #1 is just unbelievable. The ending of the episode where she dies is really emotional and I did like that, but just that obviously won't change my opinion, but that ending was beautiful and sad at the same time as she died. Imo this is no where near FMAB or Aot or popular animes like those tho, and it still gets #1. Imo I'll rate the anime a 7/10 with my most honest review. It's nothing that special, if you like becoming like attached to characters or smth and only watch drama animes then this is perfect for u, but everyone likes different types of genres, but I will say this is a good drama anime, though rating it so it's the top anime is too far imo.

I still remembered when the first chapter was released after seeing the announcement that Kaguya-sama's author was creating a new manga... but damn, I didn't read it cuz I thought it's just another idol story. Now I have learned my lesson to read anything that Aka Akasaka puts out.

Been reading the manga almost from the very start of this series. I am so glad episode 1 came out amazing as it was. Hopefully the studio is consistent with their animations and directions. If so then this will turn out REALLY GOOD of an anime!!

My Lord, Aka Akasaka I kneel, Doga Kobo I kneel. What an absolutely amazing premiere. Kaguya-sama being one of my absolute favorites of all time, of course I was already interested in Oshi no Ko, but when I heard it was getting an anime I hold off on reading the manga and boy am I glad I did. After this season is over, I'll definitely probably jump on the manga.

Their decision to air this part of the story as a movie is fucking genius, I can't imagine waiting for these developments now across 3 or 4 episodes. Thank you production committee for absolutely destroying me, I really appreciate it. Also, from a business standpoint, this is pretty genius too, I am pretty sure they would've lost some viewers if they didn't hook them now. 

From what I've heard this is only the tip of the iceberg, only the tip and it's already this good. Though I am going to miss Ai. There's a lot more I can probably say, especially regarding the plot and the things that happened in the episode, but I'll leave it here, as I'll end up writing a whole ass essay. As long as I got across how amazing I think this show is. I rarely rate shows while they're still airing, much less rate them a 10, but Oshi no Ko deserves the 10. I can't wait for the next episode.

Absolutely amazing, adapting the first volume into a 90-minute episode was definitely the right choice. The animation was amazing and the story had many twists, hopefully, it gets the renown it deserves!
