Oshi no Ko’s Kana takes the lead in the battle of ships
If you haven’t yet given the manga a chance after the first season, you’d better do it, because we will talk about events that are spoilers. What has caused the biggest furor among Oshi no Ko fans was undoubtedly when Ruby confessed her feelings for Aqua, something that scandalized the internet because they are twin brothers. But to clarify this, it is necessary to know another important event, because there is a crucial point in the story where both brothers learn that they are reincarnated and that they knew each other from their past life.
In his previous life, Aqua was the young doctor Gorou, who came to care for the beloved Idol Ai Hoshino and also Ruby, who was a girl named Sarina and who had a terminal illness. With time and the attention she received from Gorou she fell in love with him and although they knew that her time was numbered, they made a promise to marry once she recovered and was of age, both knew well that this would not happen, however, Gorou agreed. Finally, they both perished in different ways and wished they could be reincarnated as children of a celebrity because they thought it was a carefree life.
Now both have a new life with no difference in age or diseases, but with a direct blood relationship because they are twin brothers, but even knowing this and their past identities, it did not stop Ruby from reminding Aqua of that promise. So fans began to bet on a possible northern route that over time became stronger with the show of affection that she, chapters later gave Aqua. Despite these events, the other Oshi no Ko teams do not stop supporting their favorite girls.
In Oshi no Ko, Ruby is not the only love interest of Aqua, who meets Akane Kurokawa, the actress girl she meets in the reality show LoveNow and they eventually go out together, but without a breakthrough, because the relationship was not reciprocated, it was only superficial. And the favorite of many from the beginning, who can be considered a childhood friend, Kana Arima, the child actress prodigy who over time gained less visibility in the media, but still loves acting and has agreed to be an idol for Aqua.
With the 150th chapter of Oshi no Ko, the plot has taken a turn that has revived this “war” of ships. The chapter shows us an introspective view of Aqua with his former self, Dr. Gorou. In this conversation they both evaluate whether it is worth pursuing their revenge until they get justice and corner her father, because they have already fulfilled their duty of supporting Sarina (Ruby) to fulfill her dream of becoming an Idol.
But what made Oshi no Ko’s northern team “finished” was that Aqua recognized that he only sees Ruby as his sister, so he should protect her and not try anything with her. Although Aqua still thinks he doesn’t deserve to be happy, he also has the idea of pursuing a life as the teenager he is and next to the girl he is really interested in, yes, he thinks of the child actress. Undoubtedly, this has made the fans of team Kana assume that she will be the one who will win, since Aqua has accepted to have feelings for her since a long time ago.
Kana on the other hand, also has her own insecurities, but unexpectedly receives Akane’s support, so there goes another team with no future advancement. Not having much hope of achieving anything with Aqua, Kana gets up the courage to ask him out. The following arcs of Oshi no Ko will be fundamental to the story, will the Aqua x Kana team become canon? Let us know what you think of this preview.
