I hate Ai for being pregnant at 16, mainly because I wasn't the one who bred her, if I was well I wouldn't mind at all but because she's an idol and there's the show is literally saying "simp for her" well to me Ai is just a sl*t. They really out there trying to normalize simping, like bro she got pregnant from another dude and you're telling me to be her fan ? wtf has Japan gone to

fuck this anime, man people nowadays really lowering themselves. Simping for idols who get pregnant at 16 behind the scenes, meaning you're just a fucking cuck, simping for a girl just because she's cute while she's getting railed behind the scenes, bruh wtf is this shit

Confusing start, but this episode really got me hooked for more. I mean its a double Isekai within a Drama. It's quite the experience and the sole reason for me to make a MAL account. First time i've been so satisfied with Anime.

Amazing episode, actually sent chill down my spine.
The only thing I did not like was how Ai remembered the fan's name: realistically, she would have not known the exact name, maybe only his gift.

Despite me not being really ok with teen pregnancy the relationship between Ai, Aqua and Ruby was just so precious. Man, I felt so bad at the end.
Also the soundtrack. God tier ending.

What an interesting anime, I've heard about how good Oshi no Ko is from the manga readers and it's indeed enjoyable....

That was very good prologue, RIP Ai, her last scene hit me quite hard :(

OMGGG ISTG No one can say this episode is t one of the greatest of all time😭😭😭😭 we got a top tier waifu Ai and manager girl who got one of the best char development in a few mins🤣🤣 and an emotional rollercoaster. I won’t even lie Ai alone deserves a 5 but the story hit deep and solidified it😭😭😭😭. Aka truly is a goat for having two of his anime’s reach 1st place worldwide more than once and he sure as hell knows how to write a good female character 😍😍

Oshi No Ko blew my mind, it was intense with so many different emotions!
It's the strongest contender for Best Anime of the Year imo :)

I- Ok- What the heck just happened!? That was probably one of the best first episodes of any series that I have ever seen so far. But what the heck, that was so much. It was an amazing episode though. In all, I am stunned and shocked beyond belief.
