I really enjoyed this one, let me know what you guys and gals thought down below!

Just to revel to you: the one that drawn the manga is the mangaka of scum wish and the one written it is the writer of kaguya sama and it exist in same world has kaguya so that why it is so similar

[@dylanfleurentin647]

I'm glad you liked this one. Can't wait for season 2! 🤩

[@ChimeraLotietheBunny]

Thus is a well done video as an anime wins and oshi no ko fan

[@kodytiffany5686]

This video is to short clearly you did not list all the great things. I mean it has a time limit that is clearly to short. This is one of the best versions of Skip Beat+Violet Evergarden+Carole and Tuesday out there. Phenominal series next week is to long a wait for the next episode let alone X number of months.

I love how the second season was announced literally one day after the season finished airing

How is someone so talented at writing characters, mangaka writes kaguya-sama love is war, finishes it, and then goes “how about i write another masterpiece” like it’s no big deal

[@aohige]

Not even after it finished, he started Oshi no Ko WHILE still running Kaguya. Both weekly manga running in the same magazine. And once Kaguya ended he started a new one, also a weekly in the same magazine, running concurrently with OnK. Akasaka is a madman lol

[@cedricgagne2722]

[@Kharaen]

Apparently the OP for this got #1 on the 100 Billboard, the first for an anime. Not only that, Aqua and Ruby were featured on the cover of the Japanese Fashion magazine "Spur", something no other manga or anime character has done before. This series has become quite the phenomena.

[@CrowsRevenge1]

Not just the first time for an anime, but any Japanese song ever.

[@AATproducer]

all correct expect i think that a JoJo Character was on a cover of spur or similiar magazin

[@OleanderGardenGhost]

It's so cool because you also have to realize... this show is an idol show! And a weird and darker look at that. Like Shonen and stuff I could see but I never imagined Oshi No Ko to blow up this big. I love Oshi No Ko. I'm not hating on it but you must admit that the first 30 minutes if episode 1 was a bit weird. Especially for more casual anime fans. I am glad that it's getting the recognition tho.

[@bjrj8117]

Yeah it got like #1 on the global billboard for songs which is amazing since it's the first time an anime song has ever done that

[@CrowsRevenge1]

[@samfisher6606]

I love the detail that when channeling Ai, Akane pronounces Aqua name "Ah-ku-wa" like how Ai did but everyone else, even Ruby pronounces pronounces it "Ak-wa." And that pronunciation difference is how Aqua was able to tell that there was something different about Akane.

My guy speedran the editing for this video. This came out 3 days after the show ended. Honestly, I think your channel is criminally underrated, you're wholesome, pretty relatable and so consistent with your content. This channel should get a max 2 wins.

[@krasherom]

The way each episode ended with the ED being perfectly well timed was one of the best parts, to the point where I was looking forward to how they would happen each time.

[@toucandraws3959]

Yesss I loved the way the ED started to play, and how it fit the vibe of emotional, heartbeat, or other tone the episode ended on!

[@TheLittleBasterd]

Did you miss near the beginning of episode 8 when Kana walks to school and overhears the girly talking about shipping Aqua and Akane, how all the colours were really muddy and desaturated an how all of the colours returned, the exact moment Kana heard Aqua's voice. That being once again a really great way of showing Kana's feeling without spelling them out? Or did that just not warrant a win for you?

[@ariaakee]

Idk if it's been shown in other anime but I noticed it here first so I'll say it. I love it when the characters' hair have some loose strands here and there, especially on close up shots. It doesn't feel like they have sheets of paper as hair.

[@avestruce6388]

The thing I loved most about the last episode was that the confrontation between Akane and Kana wasn't centered on getting Aqua's attention, but more on them competing on who is the best actress

[@xXTheXXMrMasterXx]

I particularlly enjoyed her being blind to the white glowsticks at the end, possibly because of all her self-deprication. Only seeing it after Aqua went all out with the dance moves as if to instill more self confidence (as we the audience also notice more white glowsticks)

[@jdoggivjc]

Really nice to see when a studio like Doga Kobo realizes what kind of series they won the rights to animate in Oshi no Ko and they give it everything they have (and probably even more than that) and the end result is a masterpiece-level production. This honestly looked like a production that one of the highest regarded studios like KyoAni would have made IMO. I really can't wait until S2, because the 2.5D Stage Show is one of the best arcs of the entire series.

[@Forien]

One more thing I loved about this show you didn't mentioned is that the second song they performed in the last episode (when Aqua got "struck") was the same song old B Komachi performed in the studio in the 1st episode where everyone went from "they are probably mid" to being speechless. And I swear, Kana's kiss in that bit looked exactly how Ai's kiss did. Quite poetic way to close the loop for the season in my opinion

[@IZEASGT]

And Kana’s reaction to Aqua’s wotagei was a visual mirror of Ai’s, and happened at the exact same point in the song.

[@AnimeWins]

I only just noticed now somehow that Ai is voiced by Megumin from Konosuba who also did Emilia in Re:Zero, how I didn't notice that until now, (unless I forget) I'll never know lol.

[@jaltersimp9639]

ain't going to lie. Ai's death broke me and so did Akane after she was saved. This anime was so damn good.

[@HelenaSan425]

Oshi no ko is peak Anime of the Year! 🔥🔥🔥 No one is going to change my mind!, Every main character are simply amazing! Best girls Kana and Akane! 💙❤️ U are awesome as always!

[@nerd660]

This show hit me like a truck. Very rarely do anime seasons meet the hype built up by manga readers but I feel this went above and beyond. I'm sure even some manga readers would think so.

[@danielsantiagourtado3430]

The season finale was incredible! This anime is among the best and i thank you for doing this!❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@nothu]

I think many scenes deserved more wins but still im very satisfied with this video. Thx for making it man

[@B3FMandCProductions]

As always, great video! Two things: 1. Another win could've been how the manga for "I'll Go With Sweet Today", the show Kana and Aqua acted in, was also featured in Kaguya-sama. That was the manga that gave the student council "Shojo Manga Brain" and I loved how that reference ties this show into Akasaka's other major work. 2. Speaking of Kaguya, Mem-cho gives major Chika vibes and I absolutely love it. Not a win necessarily, just something I personally appreciate because Chika is one of my favorite characters in all of anime and Mem-cho radiates that same chaotic energy, but also has a deeper backstory, much like Chika.

[@griffix2841]

Every single time I see ai’s death I tear up, damn that first episode is a masterpiece

[@noahbitter2143]

[@castawayoloman]

I love how he kept going on about plot twists before knowing about THE plot twist

[@lohjutsulegend]

You asked if the idol and entertainment industry is actually how it's portrayed in Oshi no Ko and though I'm not an expert on this I can surely say that it is. Aka Akasaka made this the main theme of the show besides the murder mystery revenge story and it may even be the most important aspect of Oshi no Ko making the story just a way of conveing it. The part about Akanes breakdown was also very similar to the story of an actual suicide (which led to some drama with the mother of the victim, she even received death threats despite the episode condemning exactly this). I'm not sure if the manga based it on that or if it was written before that happened.

[@tess3681]

love what you're doing and really glad you chose this anime, it's become one of my fav. they can switch from happy go lucky to dark real fast and just everything else, it's an amazing anime, glad you covered it. again love you man ❤

[@MichaelHylands]

Loved this anime so much! I was very hesitant to watch it at first because I had never been into the idol anime genre, but finally caved after hearing so many anime reviewers mention it and all leave off with the ambiguity of "just watch the first episode" and not reveal anything. So glad to have gotten into this one and the manga!

[@Professor_Wisteria_]

i had literally zero expectations for this show because im not really the romance/ slice of life guy, but holy hell. masterpiece of an Episode 1, and the way the following episodes take that momentum and keep it rolling kept me HOOKED. this is the first anime in a LONG time that had me genuinely excited enough to want to read the manga. I NEED TO KNOW WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT DUDE

[@lyaluna7047]

I had the same experience. I viewed this anime as any normal idol anime, but the hype made me curious, and now i really want to start the manga. On the other hand, i want to see season 2 blind tho, so if you have read the manga, can i ask if it's better to read it now or wait for season 2?😢

[@Professor_Wisteria_]

@@lyaluna7047 S2 was announced literally the day S1 finished so I would wait. If they can keep this level of dedication and love in the animation then it will be SO worth it to wait

There is only one other anime that hit me harder than Oshi No Ko and I don't even want to say the name of it in fear of spoiling it for someone. I actually had to stop watching that show for awhile because the death of one character literally hurt. Thankfully the show did have a happy ending.

[@user-jm7yz3zu1k]

it feels illegal to be this early, GREAT VIDEOOOOO, THank you for making his videooo

[@Yk-qe8dz]

This show got me hype in ways I never thought would be possible! (I'm looking at you Aqua's stalker's scene and Akane personification of Ai at the end of ep7 :p) Aqua scene really made me aware of the importance of voice acting, and the power they can carry. And as for Akane, it's about the amazing feat someone can pull off when invested into a character. To the writing of the show, and its well-written characters to the visual aspect, sounds and voice acting, this show is easily top tier in my book. And it's also one of the few shows where I won't read the manga until I live the anime experience first (hello Re:Zero) , no matter how much I want to know what's next. This is how good this show is for me.

[@arondimeny9274]

To be honest, I do not usually comment on your videos, but this is probably the best time to express my (and probably most of your viewers) gratidute for your work. I can't even imagine how much effort must go into making excelent content like this. Thank you for this and all your other videos!

[@spinkey4842]

i wasn't expecting to actually like this one. but when you want to jump into the anime to help the characters, they did something right. another anime in the books that actually made me feel some type of way
