It's interesting to see that although both twins deeply love AI, were raised by her, and spent much more time with her than anyone else they are still at their core IDOL FANS and can't see through her because of that. The director, Kana, Akane, and even Nino understand AI much more because they are at THEIR CORE entertainers like Ai. Even as her children, they can't see that Ai is just a human because like every Idol fan they still want to be lied to. such good character writing
Thats the whole point of it because of how both Aqua&Ruby keep dehumanised Ai & see her just as perfect idol. But the difference is Aqua know this thing about Ai because he is an adult while Ruby still keep her fanatism about Ai. This recent development with Kana really an eye opener for Ruby because she finally realised that the real Ai Hoshino isn't invincible like she thought.
I think the conversation with Frill, this chapter, may have given us a hint about how the relationship between Ai and Hikaru formed when they were younger. Hikaru and Ai acted together in Lalalai, and maybe they had a role as a Couple. The both of them could have fallen into the feelings of who they were playing, and for a while thought they loved each other. Or at least, Ai thought she was in love, but as soon as the role was over... Yeah, she snapped out of it, but then she was already pregnant.
The problem with Ruby and Kana especially Kana is with method acting, you got know when to turn off the characters off. Instead, the charcter Nino is bleeding into Kana's life and personality. That's what Frill was so great at doing is not letting the character bleed into her personal life. Sadly Kana is falling into that abyss where she'll become Nino until someone pulls her out.
But Kana understanding about Nino could also help her grow as a person & actress because she finally confront her own personal demon that she kept dismissed. Thats the whole point of the feeling of love & hate because she not just dismissed her own darkness but also all ppl around & this is also why Aqua said she easy to manipulate in chp 117. For me personally I love her current character development because its gave more nuance to her character.
Poor Memcho. Even if I don't like Kana's move, sacrificing herself and the friendship, it was correct and we can see it here. Finally Ruby understands that Ai was not a goddess like she thought but she was just a normal and vulnerable girl. Ai's pain expression and Ai crying (we only see her crying when she died) destroyed me.
As much as i love kana, her move was far from correct, its making her understand Ai, but at what cost? You saw the panel after she eas done shooting, she was broken.. Maybe this might help or act better, or it might do the contrary, by literally breaking her, after all Ruby is under the impression that Kana has hated her all along,, glad to see kana finally being able to do something. But this is just not the right thing kana!! 😭 Aka be making Ruby suffer again after she just barely recovered.
@@SsShelu It was correct in the sense of making Ruby understands Ai and her real feelings. Like i said i don't like Kana's move. But in that sense it was correct. Only by feeling the same pain Ai felt, Ruby can fully understand Ai.
Okay, I have to be bluntly honest, but don’t take anything I say the wrong way. There is a reason I haven’t watched the series or follow the manga of Oshi no Ko. I don’t hate it, at all. Far from it. I respect this series and how it can cause the reader to emotionally connect with its characters. When a series like this can bring realism, create such stories and characters that you can just ‘get’ their emotions, not relate, mind you, then you know you created a series that is iconic, is memorable, and is among the greatest. For me, I can’t help but enjoy writers who create a series that can impact you this hard. But it is THAT reason I don’t read it. I am emotionally driven, so when a series can make you feel depressed, pity the characters, mourn for the death, and stir up so much grief in your heart, I avoid it. I won’t deny that more times than not, I am worn and torn from the reality of the world, which is why I look for the upbeat, light-hearted stuff out there. I felt that emotional connection with series like ‘My Happy Marriage’, but only because I knew there was a light at the end of the tunnel. I could endure so long as I reach that point. This series… I haven’t seen that light, yet. I am waiting for it. And until I do, I won’t read or watch it.
speaking of my happy marriage, im sad i barely can read the manga online but i do glad the anime has parts the manga translation didnt have. it just feels connected. plus whats really good about that series is that drama gets fixed in an organic way not because a character can fix it by being a know it all. i dont feel dislike on miyo for her actions before because i understand what she gone through, she even admits she made a mistake. plus it didnt have much annoying cliche tropes. it uses it in a better way.
I bet that Kana is going to be the first to realize just how dangerous Nina is to Ruby and will take measures to make sure that Ruby is safe. However, I do think Kana's envy and jealousy are real and she is using them to tap into Nina's character. I just hope Kana can ride that line without completely destroying her relationship with Ruby.
I cant belive it just accured to me But this is actually the first time we see Ai not smilying I mean she even smiled in her death But this is the actual first time we see her like that Fuck
Go ahead, Kana. With every heartscar Ruby takes, we march one step closer to pushing her over the edge of the abyss. The point of no return. The line that separates Alabamans from mere mortals.
I ended up disliking Kana in this chapter due to her behavior and mistreatment towards Ruby. Although perhaps in the previous chapter, 133, it seemed at first she wanted to 'help' her and give the push she needs to better understand Ai's personality, she did it the wrong way. Now in this chapter (up to readers perspective & the way Aka is writing the plot), who know if what Kana did was just an 'act' or really disliking Ruby in general. I'm starting to believe she disliked her from the start and everything a facade. It could have been handle differently instead of this outcome.
She always wanted to be on centre stage since her childhood, but after her career tanking, she became more and more passive to get on everyone's good book so that she can get roles more often. When she joined b-komachi, Ruby just focuses on increasing her own popularity and sidelined both kana and mem and reduces them to “background charector ", which certainly leaves a sence of inferiority and jealousy toward Ruby that's why she decides to leave in first place. In this arc she shared to behaving such to bring Ruby much closer ai's true self of solitude, but ended of feelings that these are here true feelings all along. This entire thing is like when you have a overachieving friend and you have some ill emotion towards him deep within your heart, ended burst out all at once.
Broken? Sorry excuse. I was broken, too. Over and over again. Pain beyond your imagination. Then, I found a greater power. This changed everything. Everything. Poor Ai, it is hard to be a celebrity and rich. Yet this is an amazing experience one should have.
Bro im getting bored with the manga plot and with the whole corny of making a movie to make boboo of daddy hikaru is just not doing it for me man i think im out with this one
@@cakiEDITS yup I agree because ONK is not exactly a plot driven story but more to character driven story. Even myself only continue read it because I'm to invested in Kana character arc itself since the Scandal arc & I really don't care much about the revenge plot at this point lol.
