Even then, it only began to be released digitally in English last April, so it’s entirely fair to say that most people probably didn’t hear about Oshi no Ko until around the time the anime premiered.Ĭhances are if they heard about the premiere, it was because of how it became the event of the anime season.
The manga was written by Aka Akasaka, the same author behind the enjoyable and popular rom-com Kaguya-sama: Love Is War, but the first volume of Oshi no Ko was only released physically in the West this January, with the second volume releasing next month. Oshi no Ko’s sudden surge in popularity is a bit weird to parse, as this series didn’t really have much of a foothold in the West before its first episode. However, no premiere was quite as strong and as commanding as the premiere for Oshi no Ko, which has gone on to dominate the entire anime community in the two weeks it’s been around. And of those several dozen shows, a significant number of them are new series that need to convince viewers to give them a watch. When a new anime season begins, while decades ago there would only be a handful of shows vying for attention, this spring season alone has over 70 different shows competing against each other for your viewership. Before the credits rolled, Aqua declared that he would "go out with a bang" upon returning to filming.There’s something to be said about how important it is for an anime to make a good first impression. The episode ended with Aqua obtaining a sample of DNA from his target to help uncover the truth behind his mother's death. He agreed only after learning that someone on the set might have a connection to his mother, Ai Hoshino, who died under mysterious circumstances. Arima revealed that she was working on a TV drama and convinced Aqua to join as an actor. In the previous episode, "Manga-Based TV Drama," Aqua took center stage as the male Hoshino twin became involved in a TV drama with Kana Arima, the child actor he met in the first episode. Despite its dark themes, the anime features bright and colorful visuals, quirky character designs, and excessive use of colors. The anime quickly climbed to the top of My Anime List's ranking for top anime of all time and remains one of the most popular titles in the spring anime line-up, despite some viewers' criticisms about its overhyped nature.īased on the manga of the same name by Aka Akasaka, the creator of the popular series Kaguya-Sama: Love is War, the anime adaptation of Oshi no Ko delves into the dark world of the Japanese Idol industry, television, and film production.
Oshi no Ko has been labeled as the biggest launch in HIDIVE's history and has already garnered significant attention from fans.
