| Great 2nd episode. Obviously it couldn’t top the 1st one but let’s see this story play out. I can see that some people may not like the mc Aqua, but I can understand why he wouldn’t want his sister to be an idol, and he gave her the most logical reason though not like that would stop her. I’m glad that her situation seems a bit better by signing with the family studio, but I guess we’ll have to see how successful Ruby can be. In Aqua’s case, I’m quite sure he’s gonna return to acting as it was Ai’s wish for him before her death, but the “behind the scenes” career he was willing to settle for does make sense for his revenge purpose. Also, he’s just too good looking to not be front and center. I wish some of Ruby’s cheerfulness can rub off on him though because the poor boy needs it. Also, the OP is a banger |
| They are growing up and have their own way but still in the entertainment industry. The OP and ED song are really cool! |

| ITS SO GOOD I LOVE IT ITS INCREDIBLE!!!!!!! |
| I was expecting a tone down as it would be rather hard to follow up quite the triple-length first episode. But instead of instantly switching to some SoL with revenge in the background, it managed to keep the ball rolling with the 10+ year time jump (should be about 12 if they're starting JP high school now). Both twins have been affected by the murder of their mother, and have grown up with quite the different personalities - although it is also likely to be due to how they were in their past lives. Ruby adored her mother and is now older than she got to live previously, so aiming for Idoldom was a given. Aqua is in an interesting place. He's vowed revenge on those who were instrumental in guiding the stalker to Ai, but what's his reasoning? Killing his mother, or killing someone he admired and wanted to help succeed? Or the fact that he's twice been denied the promise he made to Ai to ensure she had healthy chilldren? - first when he was killed as the doctor, and now her not being able to see her children grown and healthy. It's nice to see Aqua being the calculating intelletual with an edgy vibe, but it'll be nice to see if he allows himself to open up and enjoy the revenge downtime with his classmates in school. Wonder if he'll be pressured into the performing arts by Baking Soda-san and dwelling on Ai's final question to him "will you become an actor?". |

| bruh they didn't have to end the ep like that. Anyway, really good episode. Opening is incredible, yea that's really. |
| That was a great 2nd episode. I'm glad it didn't just rely on an impactful 1st ep. |
| As an anime-only, this has to be the most anticipated episode for me in quite awhile: because like, where do you go after that first episode? What direction will it take? Will it live up to the stage it has set? And the simple answer is... yes. This story shows no signs of slowing down; Ai's death will be echoed throughout and will influence the events of the lives of her children, a daughter who wants to follow in her footsteps, and a son who wants to protect his sister from the same fate that Ai suffered. I feel like Doga Koba is going to put every last ounce of love and care they have into this show. I for one really want to wait until this season finishes airing and then watch it all once, but idk if I have that kind of self-control |

| Kana is so cute now! Aqua and Miyako's determination to protect Ruby is admirable too, although they're on different levels lol. Aqua is scary with his determination to protect Ruby and avenge Ai! |
 |
| Wild but understandable seeing Aqua actively go against his sister's dreams of becoming an idol. I really enjoyed this one! |
 |
| Nice set up, let's see where Aqua goes next. Oh and Ruby hopefully gets her singing in place too lol |
| Nothing really happened that much. Just setting up things after the first episode. |

| Yessss, as an idol fan, I love this episode so much |
Hello everyone, i like Slice of Life and CGDCT (Cute Girls Doing Cute Thing) anime. I'm also like to make a lot of friends online, so feel free to add me as a friend or invite me to a club :)  |
| Oh no, I can see this devolve into idol antics instead of focusing on actually finding the father. There's certainly no beating Perfect Blue when it comes to the Idol stalker thing. Oshi no Ko is a huge step down from that. The show thinks it's super smart, but then it spells things out for the viewers as though they're children. The whole idols and actors are a lie thing is still a bit annoying as a core theme. Yeah we know, everyone knows this. Bit surprised this is based off a seinen manga. Having said that the anime is still entertaining and I do like it. Director guy and his mum are the best characters. |
| Good ep! Definitely a calmer one after that brilliant first long ep/movie XD Aqua is totally gonna become an actor again. I wonder how long this series goes for? Will one season be everything? Keen to see more! :) |
 |
| Nice episode. Kana was so cute despite the short appearance towards the end. :) |
