This Episode Wrecked Me... | Oshi No Ko Episode 6 Reaction! 

What's worse is the production staff purposely put that scene on the show fully knowing how they basically just made Akane, a highschooler, as the walking target.

I think the insane thing is that literally everyone who's actually in Akane's life, her mom, castmates, manager, even Yuki, are on her side. They're even trying to checkup on her. Just shows that it's hard to know how someone is really doing or feeling.

Nice to meet you, I'm Japanese. You are a very kind person who gets angry and sheds tears for her. I wish for a world in which there are fewer such cruel things in reality and more people can see the good side. Thank you for always reacting. (I'm sorry for my poor English because it's an automatic translation.)

This show keeps delivering every week. This one was rough to watch. It made the tears flow.

I honestly have not felt emotions like this from an anime in such a long time, the Realism in this anime is unmatched, the ending made me tear up, I was saying in my head "please don't let it happen, please don't" The ending sequence with Aqua was so well done, made me shed some tears, this anime is something incredible, Akane's this episode, this anime just keeps getting better and better, when an anime can make viewers sit and contemplate about these topics while evoking these discussions and emotions, just shows how amazing this anime is Edit:your reaction > the last sequence really hit deep, really love your channel

This episode got us all😢,Oshi no ko is a masterpiece so far

I've been watching your reactions to this show, and this one I noticed I'm not subbed to you yet! But I cried again when you said "you matter" and words I really needed to hear. This is the most relatable episode I've seen so far, and it really cuts deep. Thank you for stopping and discussing about your thoughts on all of this. You're an awesome person.

whoever directs these episodes is doing a phenomenal job, transitions and sound are also fucking amazing. really shows you what online hate can fuckign do to you, and how much it happens. its disgusting.

People with low self-esteem/Anxiety are usually huge people pleasers which is pretty sad. Good take on mental health and especially in modern times. Very good episode.

This why I like aqua bro, mans want revenge and can be cold but he went all the way there to save Akane and can be comical and smile at times. This why I don’t consider him one of those “emo” characters , he’s just a little mentally messed up from seeing Ai die right in front of him unlike ruby who just heard everything, which is why she’s more outgoing than him. But this series honestly has me hooked every week

This side-story with Akane is based on the real life story of Kimura Hana, who sadly did not have a guardian Aqua standing by for the last second save.

This episode had me crying....... 😭, also loved what you had to say at the end!

Great analysis at the end, spot on! It's hard to remember in the moment that the opinions of others shouldn't hinder your opinion of yourself, and that loving yourself is one of the most important things you can do in life.

Sad because people don't understand what acting is and send deaf threats and tell people to kill themselves all the time this was really upsetting but i was happy she was saved by Aqua

This episode + your Intense Reaction = wow. 110% agree about your comment / reflexion about Akane's situation. 22:51 --> Aqua, ... so precise.

Sad thing is people's opinion does really matter for Akane and people of her jobs. I'm pretty sure most of people know basically nothing about Johnny Deep, yet majority people who talk about his divorce case act like omniscient sage, and we can see how become of his career right now.

The reason they couldn't say what happened after the accident was because, contractually, they couldn't talk about things that didn't happen in the show. So they showed the accident, but not the make up, so they couldn't talk about it

This episode was such a rollercoaster. And while I expected Aqua, I was almost preprare to be devastated. And you have no idea how glad I am seeing you react in almost same way I did. Simply because I know that someone else feels as I do about people cruelty and kindness. Yuki hugging Akane was peak heartmelting for me

At the end of the day, I was just happy you gave the series a chance. But for you to go in THIS HARD with a Psycho analysis? I consider myself fortunate. Thank you!

Sadly this episode is directly based on Hana Kimura, who took her life after being severely cyber bullied for a similar situation on the reality show Terrace house. Unlike Akane, she didn’t have an Aqua who was there for her. The chapter has a dedication to her at the end and was released 2 weeks after her passing.

This episode should ignite a lot of important discussions

There's only one problem with public opinion: you may not care about it, but you'll have plenty of problems either way. It's unbearable to lose your job that you loved and worked hard on because you was cancelled (even though it's all lie or misunderstanding). And we've seen it in real life, all of it, and with a lot of different outcomes...

私は英語は良く理解出来ませんが、素晴らしいリアクションだった。 あなたはアカネに感情移入していたので、アカネの気持ちが分かる真面目で優しい人なのだと伝わりました。 私も一緒に泣きました。ありがとう

They put in a contract with the cast that doesn't leak situations that didn't go on air. Perhaps this is a clause to prevent the cast, who were friendly on the show, from saying, "It's actually all a lie and acting~" on their SNS or channel. But this ultimately prevented Akane from revealing her reconciliation with Yuki to the public, making her apology less persuasive.

i can't believe how real this show is WOW this episode give me goosebumps.. the moment she jumped scared me.. hope more people watch this show and learn something, also the thing about "leaving no mark" happened in daily life too and i feel that way sometimes like the feeling of you're not that important so u tried so hard to make any kind of impression that will make people remember u

Aka put this in a month after Hana's death. A lot of the tweets you saw were the real thing Hana saw on her phone and computer. Aqua was there to save Akane because this is fiction and the hero comes just in the nick of time. Realty many suicides the cry for helps comes way too late and even worse the ones that show no signs that look happy one day and the next they are gone because they wore that mask so well. This gets you really thinking about life and how real life can really swallow you hole.

I think she screamed more because of a fact, that she thought she was being grabbed by a hater, so once Aqua said, that he is not her enemy and she recognized his voice she got back to her senses. She didn't really want to die, its just that she got to that mental state, to the weak point, where she as she said "didn't want to think". Its this astral state, when you act as if you are possessed. Its similar to how chronic depression works right, you don't really make that decision to end your life, people with such illness usually chose to fight, and to live despite the fact that they can't ever be happy, and when they unfortunately get to that moment of weakness, whether its because of the disease itself, if we talk about chronic depression, or certain events like in Akane's case, they simply can't understand what they are about to do.

This episode made my heart ache, and I nearly cried. Unfortunately those in real life don't have an Aqua to save them last minute, or watch over them they go silent alone. So I'm happy they included a helpline at the end of the credits, people most know they aren't alone no matter how alone you feel.

this episode was sheer poetry. a pure masterpiece

This was such a strong/emotional episode... And I love how - like this video - it brought so many people (reactors, and others) to talk about their own experiences, or their views of the world/situations like these, how people treat each other and all that.

Anonymity is a shield against accountability, for better and worse.

Thank you for this reaction. I cried buckets afterwards and wanted to feel if people felt the same while watching. It's incredible how this show can showcase the truth of this industry and how hard it is to be a part of it. I remembered Hana Kimura immediately, but didn't know it was a reference to her (found out through your comments). It's heart breaking.

In my opinion episode 1 and episode 6 are contenders for episode of the year, oshi no ko has peak storytelling, the only anime I see better is vinland saga, that's it😊

This episode is one of the most personally meaningful and important pieces of storytelling I have ever seen. it doesn't matter how many times I see it, it always gets me. The depiction of Akane's mental state is so alarmingly authentic that as someone who has been there, it felt like it was a narration of my own thoughts. When she says "I am so tired of thinking, I just want to stop thinking" that gets me. And her scream at the end is just... yeah. It's an amazing episode for an amazing character in an amazing show, and your reactions as heartfelt, honest, vulnerable. I really enjoyed it, and I will be watching more of your stuff from here on out.

Buena reacción...veo tus reacciones con subtítulos..me llegó al corazón este capítulo...es difícil no hacer caso a los ataques de internet..el mundo es muy agresivo ..pero también hay gente muy buena

that's exactly why if you are part of any kind of entertainment you should be very confident and it shouldn't matter to you what others think except for the important ones

Akane is sweet, timid, insecure, and wants to make everyone happy. The things that make her such a likable character are what make her an easy target for anonymous keyboard commandos. It happens way too much, and not everyone has an Aqua to save them.

i can't😭 i was crying watching your reaction. but then i go reading comments and some are pointing out that you put a wrong oshi no ko logo in the thumbnail. so i checked and it does say "pee" in the thumbnail. i am currently laughing & crying at the same time 😭

Some people who dont know the context of the akane arc might shrug this epsiode off and say that it's over exaggerated but ironically this arc was written one month after this happened to a pro wrestler starring in a Japanese netflix show. The situation is almost a 1:1 recreation of the catalyst and online mob, the only difference is that she didn't have an aqua to save her and ended up taking her life

Great commentary, thank you. I know this anime, and the story is very enjoyable, but I am amazed at all of the subjects this, thoughtfully touches. Why I feel no teens should be exposed to social media until at least 17 or 18, as many doctors have pushed for. You, awakeprod, are much more mature, intelligent, and strong willed, then the teens in a reality show... reality shows that are happening all around the world, .... in real life, with real lives at stake. Haunting anime, I hate it, love it, love that any mass media, makes me/you feel anything.

Of course there was a rational way of disputing that conflict in the show, but you know obviously we need the plot. However, I'm appreciative of this episode for the plot that's displayed, that is a very serious topic in the entertainment industry of many cultures around the world it's rather a common stigma. I want people to realize how easy it is to break someone down on the internet, cause it's not just the hate in itself, but the numbers of people who hate. One comment is one comment to you, but to that creator whether they deserve it or not, hate piles on like a fuckin mountain.

Hope you’re doing okay Love seeing your take on scenes and thoughts on all the shows you react to. Thanks for taking the time to make these 👍

Finally, a reactor to cry with me. I needed this.

I know behind the scene Aqua chek on her activities. Because He was a doctor in past life, I'm sure he know some que of depression patients so I'm expecting He to be there on time. What a great Dr. Aqua.

really loved the post episode discussion!

Gotta take a walk outside, after this episode

As a Japanese, this episode is important to remember about Kimura Hana.

I love your reactions, this episode was really hard to watch, thanks for your words of encouragement, it means the world to everyone who's in that spot

At times like this I’m glad I don’t have Twitter.

Bro, this series is so educational on what goes on behind the scenes of the entertainment industry. This is too real to be anime bro, i've seen lots of idols go through similar experiences. It's heartbreaking. This episode needs to be watced by literally anyone more people need to learn the damage of cancel culture, and what happens if you dont understand the whole picture

“Get on the internet’s bad side, it’ll leave you with a mark that won’t heal”.

I've watched this like 8 times today. Every damn time Mephisto kicks in, and we see that powerful Blue Star of Right shining in Aqua's eye.....just, damn. I fall in love with this anime all over again, and again. And I thought the Black Star of Vengeance was cool!

You gave some really valid points, but you also have to remember and put into considerstion that Akane is a highschooler. I dont think anyone in that age has enough experience, mental maturity, and mental capacity to "just ignore them". Especially not here in the east where your image to others holds more value than, I'd say the west. Even moreso in Japan, a collectivists society. Stand out too much and you'll be looked at with questioning gazes, or in worse cases like Akane's, hateful glares of ignorance. That's also why Akane can't exactly "go out with your friends", remember that she's a celebrity, an actress. One whose currently on a pretty big dating reality show on TV. Going out in that circumstance is like asking people to (metaphorically) stone you.

Gracias por ver este anime con nosotros, un gran abrazo desde México!

That just one of the Twitter moment. I don't think it'll ever gonna change. It us had to adapt to it hellish. Takes their tweet as like a bunch of ants.

I think everyone needs a hug after this episode...just hugs all around

I heard this episode is based off similar events to a girl named Hana Kimura. She committed suicide due to cyber bullying. What makes this episode so powerful is that this does happen in the real world. This episode just made it feel all the more real

RIP Hana Kimura (1997-2020), whom Akane was based on. She was cyberbullied for slapping the hat off someone on Terrace House, a reality TV show, for accidentally ruining one of her expensive wrestling costumes in the laundry . The drama was staged by the producers.

Akane's voice actress is absolutely amazing.

サムネイルが『推しっ子』になってる！！！ 推しっ子→おしっこ ミス？

Yea this episode got me. The past 5 episodes made me forgot how dark this show can actually get

Btw Thank you Love ur reaction best so far feel genuine same relatable this victims need hugs ❤ TT wish everything go well now for u too

In Australia, I got similar vibes on how irresponsible the producers are with the mental health of the reality dating show contestants. Looking at you "Married at First Sight".

Thank you for the reaction. I'll have to watch this later. 👋😁👍

the last episode was goofy as shit and not gonna lie, nearly made me wanna drop the show, but this episode brought me back in fr fr. Amazing visuals, and the message it gets across is a great one.

Lucky Aqua is there, btw thanks for this episode reaction❤

I mean, I'm a bit sadistic and I very much enjoy your suffering but still I love your work, I hope you only be sad by anime and I wish you the best of the world.

In this situation i think what u said is valid about not caring for people's opinion (even though its more hard for an actor ) But what about people with a very low self esteem who hates themselves Its really sad that we dont learn about controlling our emotion and mental health in school maybe just in my country idk The last thing i want to say is if u got hate for some of your reactions dont let it bother u be true to yourself

😮 Another good one i see. Can't wait to check this one out later

I remember when i first read the manga. The scanlator put a thing at the end talking about the real life equivalent to Akane from a show called Terrace House. Someone already talked about her in the comments, but i remember that the scanlator ended what he was talking about by saying something like "You never know the power your words may have on someone else, so use them positively." I think this episode does good at showing just how scummy and trash it is to bash people like that online.

from now best girl akane will grow stronger & stronger ❤

hey, spell of title is mistaken . not 推しっ子 but 推しの子. 推しっ子 means pee in fact.

around 5:00, this is the reason there's a pretty popular "rule" about not dating new people that you meet until you've known them for 3+ months. Apparently most people that do this *usually* show their true personalities within 3 months of knowing another person.

Thank u ❤ Finally start one of the best moment best girl akane aqua best couple time ❤

When I was watching I really thought it was going to happen, what a relief

Maybe the only good thing that came out of this ordeal is that Aqua saved her, and as he's a doctor, he should be able to defuse the situation smoothly.

that overpass scene broke my heart as well. 😢

I am your comment number 200, cheer up :D

If only everyone shows kindness and more forgiving to each other our dialy lives would be more tolerable.

On what you said after the end Well said

Even knowing about this I still cried a little This story is dark As Shit

A slightly interesting thought for anyone who get criticism is I’ve been thinking of typing a super dumb joke after people watch this episode. The joke would go something like “I wish u would become not alive… so that u could be reincarnated as my child and I could love u even more” but I never post that because of the fear that someone would only read the first part and disregard the joke of it. Now ffw to a day when I am having a horrible day and I see someone has an opinion that I disagree with my thoughts turn vitriolic so fast that my normal self wouldn’t ever recognize a comment I make as being from the same person. My point is If u see a comment that u feel is disgusting then instead of taking it to heart feel sorry for that person because their life is probably hell or at the very least disregard it completely because almost no one actually cares about someone they barely know. Especially not to the degree to actually give proper “constructive criticism”.

I don't think she screamed because he stopped her from jumping. I think whether you're suicidal or not, screaming is a natural response to getting unexpectedly tackled from behind. She stopped when she realized it was someone she knew.

I know, I know. It happens to me. It got me really upset. 😢😢 By hear other peoples's voice on Twitter it makes me want them to shut up and stop talking at Akane. I don't want Akane to die like Ai from the first episode.

The cruelty of social network and entertainment industry in a nutshell.

推しっ子=おしっこ→Ｐee 「つ→の」 推しの子=おしのこ

And then imagine Aqua use her like a tool This is the kind of show honestly

Cool thing is that this show is that cruel we actually believe Akane would do this. Not just like "Oh, she will be saved, just watch" because she's the main character, but after first episode we know this doesn't work anymore, so i personally really was scared. Sick episode, omg

Goddamn, great reaction and commentary.

My boy saves the day.

Thank you for noticing that Japanese manga and anime always look at the subtleties of the human heart.

I liked your reaction 10/20 and god

You're a beautiful, articulate person. I've subscribed. Take care.

The most sad part of this is, it's base on a true story.

Was it an accident, though? Could it perhaps have been a setup? Cause the episode gives so much focus to the shiny object put on the nails. I'm not saying it was a setup, just that the episode gave special treatment to the nail scene. Maybe it was just foreshadowing, though. Of course I'm not saying everything was premeditated, it is just that the object was put there with the hope that something dramatic would happen.

This girl needs LowTierGod love yourself speech

“I don’t understand why people are so cruel” lol I remember watching your Mushoku tensei episode and you being happy Rudeus was depressed lmao

The letters on the thumbnail are "oshikko"! oshikko means pee

from the start, akane should have just left his agency, moreover, the 80:20 split was impudent, although I don't know how the agency works

Why do the morals and decency that exist in the real world collapse on the anonymous Internet? I think it's because people who are smoldering in the depths of society who have accumulated stress that they never meet in the real world are active on the Internet. Also, on the Internet, it is not possible to determine whether the other party is a child or an adult. Adults can't stop children from ranting.
