No Offense and I HAVE NO ISSUES WITH ITS HIGH RATINGS 

But you guys really cried? It was honestly a good episode no doubt but I guess the only reason why it hit 9.35 ratings was surely because You guys witnessed AI's death and chick hearts felt it heavy......also again NO OFFENSE in that as well 
Also the timeskip AQUA engulfed with an absolute REVENGE......loved that 

I saw her death coming as the ATMOSPHERE in the ep changed and ofc the STAKER was the MAJOR 




also no 💢DEATH SPOILER💢from other animes.....there was one of 💢DEMON SLAYER💢 in other post but since everyone watched it so it wasn't a spoiler so

Was sad but not enough to drip tears

Nope. I didn't find Ai to be particularly likable and the scene was way too melodramatic anyway. Tragic death scenes are rarely actually cry-worthy especially when the dying person goes on a monologue.

I was spoiled about that death before but that still couldn't stop me to shed some tears for that brave mother

I mean I didn't exactly cry but it was definitely sad enough to shake me a little

To be honest, even though the episode was 80 minutes long I dont think it was enough time for me to connect with Ai. To answer your question, no.

The lovely thing is, I have not watched Mugen Train yet so the DS spoiler actually was a spoiler for me. But yeah didn't cry and already read the Manga beforehand so I saw it coming.

Same here. Kinda hard to cry when you’re just waiting for that scene the entire episode

I cried so so so hard. I easily cry to anime, heck I even cry to love live. I could definitely see something working its way up but nothing can prevent me from crying when that stuff happens. The moment was so well carried out, the art was amazing, and I really felt it.

I didn’t cry, regardless I did enjoy the episode and was surprised by the death but I’m not much of a crier when it comes to anime, all I thought was “damn that's kinda sad”.

The premise of your question is wrong. You make the false assumption that one will only cry if they didn't see it coming (and vice versa).

I actually never cry over fictional works. I physically can't force myself. I always limit myself only to the feeling of sadness deep down. But that doesn't stop me from appreciating them, as in this case (although her death monologue may have dragged on a bit too much).
I didn't expect this plot twist at the end for a moment (I didn't read the manga, and about the anime only general descriptions talking about the reincarnation thread). Maybe I haven't watched enough of this type of production to feel the signals.

I was spoiled of what would happen and it was heavily implied that Ai would die but regardless, it was pretty emotional.

Even though I saw it coming I still cried. Things don’t have to be unexpected to be emotional. And this ep was a pretty good example of that imo.

Depends on your emotional investment and circumstances. If you were cooking with a flammable wooden stick one a 1 meter squared campfire with a 2 yesr old siblings or skiing in a forest while holding a laptop then maybe you wouldn't have been crying.

I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P

Nope, not at all (and I easily get emotional in tragic moments). Expected her death when the show suddenly started "developing" her character with pure exposition roughly 10 minutes before her death.

Her death itself also wasn't sad at all for me, after the stab she just went on and on monologuing like she prepared the death speech or something. Too melodramatic and in a bad way imo. Would be better if the stab actually realistically hurt her (gut stab wounds are not pretty) and the stalker guy would freak out by what he actually done and ran away or she tried to protect her kids from him instead of this 10 minute monologue we got.

I'm baffled how this death gets people depressed and traumatized since Ai was not really a prominent and developed character before her death.

No I didn't cry, I wasn't a huge fan of Ai and the only reason I found it sad was because of the children witnessing their mother's murder. I definitely didn't see the death coming though, certainly not as brutally as that. I thought the whole plot twist and episode was done almost perfectly

Dude the major part of the score is because of the bots and multi accounts made just to inflate the rating.
They literally have only Oshi no Ko on the anime list, and literally one forum post in this anime's episode thread, I've even seen comments like just "oooo" without any substance at all not even an actual word xD

I didn't cry, but I did tear up a little. It was more like a punch to the gut, in which they pulled it out afterwards. It definitely left an impression on me, at least enough for me to not be able to stop thinking about Ai and the episode ever since I watched it. The whole episode really made me fall in love with Ai

Haha I did. My mouth also wouldn’t stop talking about it even while at work. My colleagues now knew the basic storyline of this anime/manga even without knowing it. Everywhere I go, I remember the scene where she died and feel sad.

When in rl life or imagination, real s*** happens. Unfortunately.
