How Oshi No Ko failed its audience

Summary

Aqua could leave after the end of revenge, free himself from hate and stick to responsibility.
Aqua's actions after the completion of revenge, such as fulfilling promises and forwarding, led to a satisfactory end.
The story failed in narration, especially with the Arc film using shock value and comedy, which influenced the overall story.

Last year, Oshi no ko closed with its final chapter. After a long, harrowing path of what it means to be in industry, the truth behind the showbiza and the complexity of relationships ended up, literally literally, what the audience referred to as “anti -lim”. Aqua finished his revenge, but committed suicide, framed Hikar, his father, as the perpetrator, while both drowned.

It can be said that Aqua simply felt that he would not be worthy to live as a result of revenge. Ruby's happiness, however, was often solved in the sense that if the revenge of Aqua was completed, it would be sad if he was gone. In a story that was supposed to criticize a cycle of hatred and free himself from fate, it was just to throw away.

What could have been

An alternative end created by a fan 半吊子 Bill on YouTubethey imagine the end again Oshi no ko In which Aqua goes through his revenge, but instead of killing himself, he acknowledges his own value and leaves the scene to relieve this hatred. Yet he still accepts responsibility that only Aqua would live with the fact that he had committed murder. As in other chapters, it was given an explanation of how he managed to get away.

Aqua, by introducing as his father, created a witness in the hotel worker and thought Hikaru was still alive. This would affect how the authorities would determine the time of death. In addition, Aqua took part B-KomachiThe final concert, encouraging Ruby and fulfill his promise of KANA – homage to their first concert. This is observed by Akane, who keeps the secret between them. Although Aqua still has doubts in his mind and his actions chase him, he is able to move forward. Aqua fulfills its promise AI, Ruby moves on, the end is satisfactory.

Go downhill

As observed in fans, other chapters and series of events did not have to change to end the story in a different direction. But one arch failed in his narrative. The film arc where Aqua and Ruby portray their parents, let them kiss on the screen. Kana acts as a surrogate viewers and points out how strange it is to show (let alone promote) incest. Although it could have been used as a means to explore the acting industry (because there are real cases of family members playing lovers) and solving the problem, it was still used for the value of shock and comedy.

How Oshi No Ko and Perfect Blue explore the culture of idols, explained

These two anime have wild tones, but they explore similar themes in the Japanese culture of idol and pop culture as a whole.

Moreover, after Ruby learned about Aquaina identity, she began to chase him. Again, it could be examined that her childish desire to be transferred with him from the mandatory “strict” that Goro brought her in her previous life. But instead of being exposed and clarified, Aqua seems to have no problem with it; Although he kept her away from his drama in the previous chapters.

Until the sequence of dreams he has with his previous self, Aqua is doing his earlier identities like Goro and appealing to Ruby as his sister. Ruby seems to move from him, but the audience has never explicitly seen. Obviously, Aqua has always seen Ruby as her sister no matter and considered Sarin as her patient. From the beginning, it would be more sensible for him if he set the borders with her earlier. However, the potential opportunity for the development of characters and greater insight into the entertainment industry has just dropped.

The learning of the past

After the previous work of the author, Kaguya-sama, They ended, readers noted that the final arch and the end were also assembled – many people led to the belief that the same would happen Oshi no ko. Assuming that the sequence of events in the story was the result of rushing was right. But given the reception of the audience Oshi no koIt ends, hopefully the error repeats for the third time.
