This season of Oshi No Ko is so good! Everything is just perfect. The animation, the music, the characters' development. Literally everything! The best arc of Oshi No Ko by far

I don't know what to say at this moment, the show is on fire!🔥 The colouring is what amazes me the most but I can talk about other aspects too. Previous episode was mostly about Akane, while this one is about Kana. I always liked this show because even though there is so much characters that involves with Aqua, they show pretty much everyone's past which gives them a deeper meaning. I can't wait for the next episode...

Kana's brilliant performance. It was nice to see Aqua has to suffer with this. Don't enjoy acting. Do everything for real. Defeat em' all, Aqua. Become the star you're supposed to be.

Amazing episode!

Kana has found her way and Aqua has also "found his way". It'll be interesting to see how they adapt the next episode.

Keep in mind they have to do this over and over again instead of just once for camera.

Sooo did he actually bite him? Lol

Director seems like his only jobs these days are in JAV yet he is the most caring adult around.

I gotta say, using your anger and vengefulness to help you succeed isn't wrong, but holy can't say I'd want to be in them shoes.

It's Kana special episode. Sometime I hate Kana, sometime I love Kana. Lol.
This episode is full of AquaxKana. It is a beautiful scene of them both.
I never wanted to wear any contact lens. It's so creepy to touch my own eyes. Haha.

Director Gotanda out there helping/saving child actors left and right. Man, I had no idea his role would be this relevant.

Cool episode. Kana shone so much the animation started looking blurry and it seems Aqua has learned to use his PTSD to evolve into the ultimate edgelord. Impressive.

Poor Kana I can't imagine the pressure she got as a child actor by her mother... and now we're getting Aqua's berserk mode related to how he feels towards everyone regarding Ai's death... we're seriously getting some deep development for most characters during this stage play, it's just great.

Kana thought that she was handing over the stage to Akane. However, it turned out to be quite the opposite! The things Kana does on stage actually make her stand out even more, shine even brighter. And, like the last 2 episodes, we were shown Melt and Akane's back story, now it's time for Kana's back story.

Himekawa throws ad-lib and Aqua picks up on it and throws it at Arima. Arima’s past is shown and how she went into survival mode and did bare minimum to exist in the industry. Aqua pushed her back to her true talent, and Akane is fangirling 🤣.

When Aqua’s scene came, Aqua channeled his anger and hate into his role. Aqua is determined to defeat Himekawa, Arima and Akane to get the recognition he needs in the industry, to get his revenge. Acting will be the tool to his revenge.

The way they put Akane/Saya's death very realistic is a bit too cruel, huh. I'd definitely get a panic attack if I were Aqua.

This season was wayyy better than the first one! Loved the animation, the visual representation of the actor's feelings and how human each of them were. Finally getting to see the unhinged dark part of Aqua was really exciting, and I can't wait for the next season!

Kana giving it her all and shining so brightly even Akane had to start fangirling out again! With so much weight and responsibility on Kana's shoulders. I'm glad she can still find joy in acting.

Aqua may not be using the healthiest mindset to fuel his acting, but he's giving off the performance needed to portray the grief of Toki. This was another gorgeous episode. I'm super pleased by it!

Kana suffered a lot in her childhood, there were some pieces about it before but this episode gave even more about that.

Damn, Aqua is legit terrifying!

Not even sure which episode I’m commenting on, haven’t watched the end, I’m sure it will be great…but I can’t just stand by and say…you can’t just bring in shonen fight sequences to something like this….

I can act better than you! Oh no! My acting is all I have, time to use my acting trump card!

All in front of an audience?!?

Like…nobody has ever challenged anyone in front of an audience to an…acting battle?? Still haven’t finished the arc yet…hoping for better…but so far…a show about revenge/how terrible the art industry is/ how terrible idol culture is…

I’m hoping for something else

This was by far the best episode so far for me, I loved getting to see more backstory of Kana. As well as the part with Aqua that had me really captivated, his revenge and pain is so strong and obvious to see it’s incredible

8+ episodes and barely any forward momentum of the main plot of revenge. 8 steps taken that has been a pretty scenic view but has led us nowhere further than where we were at the end of the first season. Boooooorrrrrriiiiiinnnnng

Previous episode was Akane's but this one is Arima Kana's.

Aqua is really good at give the spotlight to the one of the best girl of the series... so smooth!! Then her memories of past rushed through her what was doing, why was working hard for!!! Great episode!!! Arima Kana is truely a STAR 🌟.

And the final expression of Aqua is really damn what can I say, just outstanding, goosebumps ToT. Can't wait for the next episode.
@nirererin also can't wait for the next episode :3
