| When you can tell the studio and ppl who produce this love this series and go all out on their production, you can totally see it from Oshi no Ko adaptation. One of the best manga adaptation in recent years , with next to perfect pacing , artstyle, production, and some of the best anime original contents (they totally dont need to animate some of those performances but they go all out on it instead, like Kana MV, chicken dance) Even if you read the whole manga is totally worth watching the full adaptation, just like Kuguya love is war. Cant wait for season 2. |

| Akane and Kana rivarly is pretty interesting I would love to see more on the next season |
A few random things I liked about this episode:
This show really is quite clever. You could really go over this series with a fine-toothed comb, and you would discover all sorts of little details, connections, and throwaway gags. I love it. |
| It looks like I'm not the only one who thinks that the only good episodes are the ones revolving around Ai or Akane (eps 1 and 6-8). From the authors of Kuzu no Honkai and Kaguya-sama, and after a great premiere episode, I expected more than just a decent watch. |
 |
| Oshi no ko is amazing cannot wait for the other season the animation the style is magnificent and the one sided love between aqua, kana and akane tbh I root for Arima kana cause I really like her but I feel like it is a one sided love cause aqua doesn't feel the same way about Arima who knows maybe something might change in aqua's heart GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO what does this part remind you of     |
| unfathomably overrated show |
| Outstanding idol performance of Kana, Ruby, and Memcho. I love the rivalry between Kana and Akane. I'm excited to see the Tokyo Blade stage play. Amazing adaptation and I'm hype for the second season! |
 |
| The adaptation quality is really something else. Everything is on point or even way better than the original counterpart. I'm truly impressed, Doga Kobo. This anime truly deserves a high rating. This is just me but ...I just wished most visual novel adaptation were like this. OH COME ON I JUST WANT TO GO STRAIGHT SEASON 3! |

| Definitivamente es cine |

| Well we didn’t get that Scarlet>Fire cover but as expected they blew the roof off the venue with their performance, even managing to recapture that former fan of Ai, and damn it looked really nice too, as someone that watches idol anime I am used to a mix of CGI and drawn animation but this was all drawn (or at least it appeared that way) and it looked stunning, some really amazing scenes in there. And Aqua doing that dance he did as a baby was great lol, the absolute perfect boost to their performance, especially Kana. And speaking of Kana it was really nice to see her come back around on Aqua after giving him the cold shoulder for a good bit, really enjoyed her teasing Aqua too lol. And the rest regarding that 2.5D adaptation of a popular anime seems to be setting up the next arc for the just announced season 2, sounds like it’s gonna be an interesting one, especially with the newly discovered rivalry between Akane and Kana lol. And so ends this super popular anime, but I’m ngl I think it deserves the popularity, it’s a damn good show. From the massive first episode which set the stage for everything that came after it, to the darker themes and the general goofiness, I had a lot of fun with this one. Only issue I had with it was the fact this anime was so popular it probably overshadowed some other amazing shows this season, but I can’t fault the show for that lol. And for my best girl, I think it’s gotta be between Akane and Kana, it’s a hard choice for me so I won’t pick one just yet lol. And Doga Kobo really slayed this adaptation, for a studio that usually does SoL they really brought it this time. But I guess with that, we wait for season 2 to come and stomp another season with popularity lol, I’m looking forward to it! |
| Such a great episode and season. Those few still frames at the start of the ED tho; chef's kiss! 10/10 |

| Looks like they've finally took to the stage, and what a performance it was! Seems that Kana is back on normal terms with Aqua. We also found out she is going to be "competing" with Akane, now that they are also on the same project that Aqua is going to be doing next (season 2 I guess). I thought it would be ending on a cliffhanger, and even then I still think they left it on a very satisfying point. |
 |
| I'm glad that Ruby, Kana and Mem-Cho put on a great first live performance at the idol event. Once again, Aqua worked like a lunatic with his fan dance which almost made Ruby and Kana laugh while they were still performing. XD Not only that, but Kana now knows that Aqua and Akane's relationship is a working one and not what she thought it would be, which she was VERY relieved, as you could tell from her blushing face. Mem-Cho, on the other hand, is now at that awkward position of not knowing who she wants to support more in this intriguing love triangle. Speaking of which, Kana meeting Akane and Aqua during their "date" shows how much of a grudge the pair have for each other. This was made even more apparent now that all three of them have been cast for a stage play, where the characters that the trio will be playing are also part of a love triangle. So that wraps up Oshi No Ko and this episode, just like with the rest of the season, have been stellar. Doga Kobo went all out with this series and it really shows with how beautiful the visuals are and how the animation quality is. I'm happy that a second season has already been announced. so it won't be too long of a wait until we get to see this great cast of characters once more on our T.V screens or monitors. 9/10 is my final score. |
| The anime of the season is finished, waiting for the 2nd Season (I'm so excited about it). Actually is the first time I see what Oshi no Ko did to anime since it was released, not only because the score. The genre "Idol" was totally changed because this anime and I'm so happy about it. Without a doubt is one of the animes of the decade, now we just can wait for the 2nd season. Thanks Doga Kobo for this adaptation. Final score 8/10!! |
| if i could change one thing it would eo replace kana with akane. Akane is cooler and she could also the the star eyes thing. kana is annoying jealous whiny bitch. |
 |
| What a ride. Looking forward to the rivalry. |
| Quantum ille canis est in fenestra |
| The decision to not include Mana Suzushiro's short plot line and instead immediately start the introduction of the next arc was weird. Especially since they showed her at the beginning. |
| Underwhelming. Boring. Repetitive. Anticlimactic. Bonus points: - more flashbacks (during the performance nonetheless LOL) - focus again on highly unlikable Arima (grumpy, cynical, ungrateful, immature, no redeeming qualities, annoying voice) - highly hateble Akane brought back into the mix (oh poor me) This story is dead. Moreover, it was never alive. |
| Prediction. Once the deluded fanboys and fangirls move on this anime will fall to a more realistic rating. I expect a 7 or 6. Of course, what it really deserves is a 4, but fandom culture will not allow that happen. People watch and support almost everything. No matter how poor the work. It's this lack of needed discrimination and imbecilic acceptance that pollutes and poisons the well. Well then, enjoy drinking out of the gutter. |
| bro bro bro bro i need more n0W!1!1!! i shIP ar1M4 anD 4Qua!! idc 10/10 |

Isekai Ojisan somehow found his way to a different anime |
 |
| absolutely amazing show. my only complaint is that the first episode set the bar way too high. the rest of the episodes were enjoyable of course, but that first episode was miles above the rest of the season and definitely put people's expectations at an unreasonable level. loved seeing the new b komachi perform. i feel like at some point kana will be looking out to almost an entire crowd of people waving white glow sticks. so many things to look forward to in the following season(s) |
