Holy sh*t! Akasaka Aka sure has a thing for creating stories of geniuses having exagerated battle/interaction with each other, doesn't he? This and Kaguya-sama, both introduces an array of highly specialized geniuses in their own way. In Kaguya-sama we have the all around genius Kaguya & Maki, genius attendant that can do practically anything in Hayasaka, the genius people manipulator Chika, etc. In here, we have genius advert/marketer Mem-cho, the manipulator/director Aqua, genius all-around entertainer in Ai, genius camera awareness Yuki, and now a practically CSI BS level of genius profiler in Akane.

In can be too much in the long run though if things keep developing unrealistically like this, just like how at some point Kaguya-sama (the manga) lost its charm for me. Let's see how this will progress....

Awesome episode. I love the part where everyone came to support Akane and working together to stop the internet backlash.

Aqua totally underestimated Akane's ability as an actress and get blown always by her perfect role-playing as Ai. Those were some impressive research she was doing.

Social Media x Entertainment World sure is a nice match huh.. anyhow I'm glad for all the support that Dating show casts have done for her especially Aqua with his genius skillz.
But at the end tho with Akane imitating Ai really surprised the hell out of me with the starry eyes making her an actual talented over the top actress damn.

Legit wth is with the cliffhangers mann, like they rlly know how to tease the viewers but can't wait for another peak episode!

Let's go, Oshi no Ko wednesday is here, aNoTHeR GReAT ePIsoDe.

Many people missed how Aqua ended up there at the exact same time and saved Akane in the previous episode, even though it was obvious. The episode showed Akane texting on the group chat that she would go buy some food, but there was a typhoon. As a result, it was natural for the others to be worried and look out for her.

This anime is incredible and each episode has been outstanding, propelling the story and character growth. The overall quality, including the visuals, music, storytelling, and voice acting, is exceptional. It's truly refreshing to witness such unwavering consistency and commitment in an anime. It seems like I've already mentioned this before. I might be praising them too much.

Akane best girl let's GOOOOOO-

Thanks for the meal

In regards to your post in the spoiler tag, well said brother, I had to explain that same thing to one of my closest friends last night

Nope. That’s just a problem with Akasaka’s writing. He doesn’t know how to move main plots forward.

May I ask why you are so obsessed with ruining everyone’s fun with this show? You post on everything with some sort of comment dissing the show. Even on good episodes you would say, “well to bad this is the only time it’s good”. Like I get not liking a show, but bro you’re obsessed

You took the words out of my mouth, "obsessed" is the perfect word for it. I get it, you dislike the show to an extent and I respect that, just post your opinion and leave. There's no need to constantly force your feelings upon others who actually enjoy the show and ruining their experience. You are constantly on each of these forums. Don't you think there's better things to do than calling people bots and causing drama in the discussions?

Even though I sorta predicted that Akane would succeed in imitating Ai, it was portrayed so incredibly well that even though I knew it, it felt so amazing. And the way Akane deducted that Ai had a relationship was so amazing that it just left my jaw open. I loved it!

What I love about Akane's character is that she exhibits this dedication to portray AI's persona flawlessly. Much like a cake assembler assembling a cake, meticulously harmonizes every intricate component that goes well and not out of place to not hinder it's own meaning. MANAKA IWAMI KILLED ITTTTTT in the end.

Ahh those are the words I was looking for. Quite the shiver I got seeing Akane in her room researching Ai. I felt like she was accidently going to find out that Aqua was Ai's son.

I think now i understand what the star eyes design for, it shows "lies". It shows when Akane play role (acting totally different from yourself, which considered as lies) as Ai, her eyes become like that

It apply for Ruby and Aqua considering their past
