Im betting an arm that Sarina's mother deeds will come back to bite Ruby in the ass. Thats a really low blow for Ruby and if she discovers it will make her for sure become even more bitter, and shes quite jaded already compared to how she started the story.

Aqua is even more jaded and cynic, but at least he was far older than her before he died so his mental state no matter how twisted it is is more "stable" so to speak than Ruby's
About time to destroy Ruby's dark eyes with Akane-suicidal depressed eyes.

She abandoned her to die alone and never visited her even when she had little time left. And that photo shows her perfect little new family with her pretending to be a good mom with no mention or sign of Sarina when she left her to die
I'm gonna add something to this, she also says "children just want to know their parents are healthy" and show a picture of her family going oh don't drink too much, so and so in good spirits, juxtaposed with Sarina, a child in her death bed, ghosted by her fucking parents, writing as her new years wish for her parents to be healthy when they dropped her in a hotel in the middle of nowhere to die without being a nuisance to them. Oh she's a pos alright, I hope she gets her just deserts and they don't show her to secretly be a good person or some anti vengeance bs

Welp, time for the big reveals…it’ll probably blow up with Aqua finding out who Ruby was. As much as I want him to also reveal who he was, considering the path he’s chosen for himself, it’s likely he’ll keep that hidden.

Imagine taking care of someone who you know was about to die, doing everything you can to get in contact with her parents to hopefully at least let them have a moment with each other before she passes, but fail because the mom was busy. This mother never, even once came to visit her dying daughter, up until her last moments. Then you find out this mother figure was enjoying her life elsewhere, seemingly without a care in the world, as if completely forgetting about her daughter. No memento, nothing. “As long as the kids are healthy.”

She abandoned Sarina. Aqua was taking care of her for a long time. He has the right to be pissed. I know I’d be too.
I get you. Sometimes I forget to put myself in the character shoes. To Sensei (Aqua's previous life) this woman might feel like the peak of hypocrisy. It just that the photo seemed very innocent to me, but as you said that innocent photo might've felt very unfair to Aqua. Thanks for the insight.

As for the mother, I feel that there's more to her. The fact that she heavily drinks (even on the celebration photo she has a bottle and there's a reference to her drinking) is in order to cope with the guilt of having failed Sarina.

I really like her inclusion. I just can't predict where the plot will go. With Ruby "needing" to feel the abandonment of a parent for her role, while at the same time really needing the exact opposite, for her real life. I wonder to which path her encounter with her previous mom will lead her.

I think Ruby really have to meet this old hag Marina, for acting purposes only, she already got two loving mothers now. And now that I think about it, Sarina would be 29 or 30 if she's still alive.
So the ones in the picture are her younger siblings... half or true siblings we will know.

I just wish Aqua decides to punish her too :xxxx

btw it took long enough for Aqua and Ruby to know their past life geez.... this plot device is quite lame u.u
There are only a few shows who can do it as good as ERASED, and oshi no ko is NOT one of them.

So she's in her mid 50s, that picture is when she was 54, and her kid(s) could be as old as or a little bit older than Aqua and Ruby. Which would mean she started a new family while Sarina was sick.

yeah... its too forced and quite predictable how it is going to be ised as plot device.... sad...
Can’t believe I’d live so see the day where weebs defend ERASED as being unpredictable/subtle and not forced.

I guess after enough time, people just forget the details in a story. Besides, being unpredictable doesn’t equate to being good or well-written. It’s usually the exact opposite.

Many of you guys seem to have missed out on what Aqua noticed. Normally, when one thinks of how Sarina was treated, and sees a drunk woman, they think of a deadbeat mother who pays no attention to her family. That was what he had assumed. But when he saw the picture, he realized, "Ah. So this is the type of person who behaves like a normal kind person to those whose existence is convenient to them, but won't hesitate to cut off their own child when they are useless."

If anything, this makes her even worse than what we thought. She's completely remorseless... She probably even tells herself she's a good person. At the time, she probably thought something like "oh well, I'm busy right now, they are taking care of her there at the hospital, I'll go check on Sarina some other time," repeatedly and never blaming herself, but deep down she just stopped loving her own daughter when she realized she would die, and those were just her justifications for not wasting any more time on her.
