So we get to know what went down between Hikaru, Nino and Ryou. Aqua accuses Hikaru of his crimes. And shit, apparently Aqua plans on ending Hikaru for Ruby's sake.

“Aqua, with a knife in his hand and white stars, says it's time for Hikaru to disappear for Ruby's sake.”

Aw hell nah

Far better chapter than the last, with an awesome Hikaru panel.

Hopefully, Aka can follow through on this.

More than anything, I hope Aka doesn’t do any bullshit last minute cop out like he’s done for the last couple chapters.

Aka Akasaka when I find him.
What's up with that Hospital flashback? These retcons... at this point, the quality of the writing has certainly decreased somewhat.

At least we're finally getting some revenge confrontation, but is he really going to kill Hikaru? That would be bad for Ruby if that happens.



The anime is going to retcon this chapter so much, I’m sorry for Doga Kogo, they're so cooked.

Aqua holding Kamiki at knifepoint, let’s see if Aka will go the distance and have him become a murderer.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol.

Author is playing musical chairs for who to play villain. A gets redemption and then B becomes main evil, but then B is shown to be "not" the main evil, it's in fact again A, because... A won the musical chairs.

Seriously, this should just end now. It's been overdue.

How can Aka think that tey can create doubt about Hikaru's motives and/or evilness after showing him ruthlessly murdering some random actress during a hiking trip??

Does Aka think we're stupid? Or is all going out of the window now in a mangaka's table flip?

Damn, Hikaru's psycho face in that panel is beautifully horrifying. Mengo's such an incredible artist, her art perfectly captures [Oshi no Ko] and its strong emotions.

I like how Aqua's "lying eyes" changed from black to white after talking about Ruby's love, she truly showed him the light. It's great symbolism which proves he isn't the same manipulative bastard as his father.

Anyway, now we've got our second stabbing fake-out (probably) in three chapters now. I wonder who'll stop it this time...

Mengo-sensei art is always beautiful, and I really only have praise for her art.

I love how there is a parallel between Ruby and Ai and a parallel with Aqua and Hikaru: daughter and mother, son and father.

Hikaru continues to be an intriguing character, and I still have a lot of things I wonder about him.

To be honest, it won't go through, it only happens if he actually did it in a random panel without stating his intention, that's always how Oshi no Ko works, Nino mumbled about killing Ruby so that it won't happen

Feels like either Aka can't quite make up his mind on how this ends, or he knows but wants a million twists before then.

What doubts? It's transparently clear that Kamiki is being disingenuous here.

@yoroshikus Most likely just to mislead us, even Aqua and company. However, Aqua did predict(Or more like he made a safety measure just in case) that Hikaru might pull another Ai death scenario.

I had faith in Kamiki, that he was pure evil. He is manipulative and made others do his dirty work. Ruby is shining like Ai, inheriting her mother's will. Doubt Aqua will stab Kamiki, someone should be there to stop him.

Thank god the stupid redemption thing for Hikaru was just a bluff, I hope there’s no cop out at the end where they do end up forgiving him.

hum. I've just caught up to manga (was anime only, till 3 days ago) and MAN what a journey.

But I feel like the author doesn't quite know what to make with the finale, am I missing something?

A lot of things that were spoiled to me, turned out to be fake, so I don't know what to make of it.

Now about the chapter, Kurokawa being batman as always, she's the best!

Kana taking a W and being happy, that's lovely.

Aqua/Amamiya may end this drama once and for all, but I feel like the author has changed the outcome of the story... I don't know what, but it's like some concepts being introduced and the abandoned, don't know.

Decided to get up to date with the manga after seeing the Tokyo Blade arc as an anime only in the last couple of days. I really like that they did this anyway after the small redemption bit they gave Hikaru, but I'm afraid Aka will back out and make Hikaru commit suicide or something, something that will make Aqua get out of this clean which I think would not be satisfying, even though I do care about Aqua... We'll see.

I'm curious if the manga will end in 2 or 3 chapters, because that would make sense volume wise (each volume has about 10 sometimes 11 chapters and volume 15 ended on chapter 152). I feel like the arc would be over to quickly in 3 chapters but I'm not sure if they can stretch out the drama for another extra 10 chapters on top of that. Love this story so I kinda want it to be as long as possible though I have to admit it never hit me quite like season 1 again at any point...

Fire chapter, in all honesty. The Star Eyes have finally been explained directly by the expert Hikaru Kamiki. Although i have no idea how he actually knew about the details, or even got them in the first place, but whatever. I swear to god, when Aqua asked him if he tried to kill Ruby with his eyes gone dark, and then Kamiki just smiled like the creepiest character in a horror movie, i felt it down my spine. So excited for the upcoming chapter.

I take back everything I said about this final arc (for now)

This chapter just exudes aura, Ruby's performance in the dome, Kamiki's twisted personality, and Aqua's revenge. Hopefully Aka won't tweak anymore with these endings
At the end of the day, we all love watching trash.

Kamiki's eyes and smile are scary! And, Aqua is the same as Kamiki. 😩 Both men have to manipulate other people to get what they want. But now, Aqua is on the offensive to protect Ruby as he has a knife with him to stab Kamiki! And Nino is with Ryosuke on that fateful night that Dr. Gōrō got stabbed!

The writing has just been awful for a while now. I never want anyone calling Aka a genius again. This reads like a fanfiction done by a 14 year old.
