Calm down and look at the second most popular comment in the chapter discussion on Manga Plus. The one who wants a fight here is the one who attacks people instead of clarifying what they meant.


Autistic? I've missed a lot of chapters lately. Has Ai ever given any reason to consider herself autistic?
No but in modern social media people love, and I mean love, to project mental health and sexuality onto characters and then act indignant when people call them out

:nyoron: Jealousy huh. I wonder if it is bad to feed off of jealousy that was uncalled for? And easily seen through becasue you are so close to them you can basically interpret their every heartbeat. Also, does reception of jealousy varies form men to women? Do men usually feel good when someone close to them turns jealous? How would Ruby feel now if she was a boy?

I don't need to talk about this after all the shipping controversies I've been involved in :D. But I’m used to the fact that it’s usually at least based on something, even if it’s forced. But sometimes I can't understand why people jump to conclusions about characters' identities so easily.

I think it depends more on the "type" of jealousy than on gender. Although I almost never heard the famous phrase about “jealousy motivates” from girls.

Let's take bets, how long will this last?

1. Aqua/Miyako/Mem or the director clear the situation in the next chapter
2. Kana explains herself in the next chapter.
3. There is a mini arc where this "Kana hates Ruby" thing continues.
4. Ruby starts hating Kana and they never reconcile.
3, and 1 or 2. aqua will either rip into her and make her explain her jealousy, or he will already understand why she’s doing it.

Kana is a good actor. And Ruby knows that. So if Kana really wants to salvage the relationship, she should have plausible deniability to say she was acting in order to help Ruby figure out the character. On the other hand, Kana's jealousy of Ruby is likely 100% real. So she's not pulling this all out of thin air to hand it to Ruby. Kana's normally not the kind of person to let it control her though, because she did consider Ruby a friend. She's decided to let it control her to help Ruby get the part down.

Ai was the target of jeallousy from the rest of her team. And she knew that and shone even brighter in spite of it. Ai's attitude was more one of "I really am better than everyone else, and you being jeallous just proves it." But it still got to her. That's why her kids were precious to her, because they were someone she could talk to who didn't hate her. And her fans were precious to her, because they worshipped her.

Damn... Would you go so far for a friend to sever a bond just so they can understand the feeling of being envied? I'm honestly scared of what's gonna happen next.

Yeah.... she goes tar far for a dear friend to self sacrifice that friendship to make Ruby act well and understand that feeling. Lets just hope that doesn't escalate... but I bet Aqua will interfere if that end to happen and talk with Kana and will understand why she did that. After that, they might reconcile and become friends again.

5. This backfires horrendously in regards to the mental and emotional health of Ruby; possibly even resulting in self-harm, but somehow the movie will be a massive cult success.

I do wonder if Aqua would agree and also psyc Ruby on the Kana hate you actually motivation route or just step out an let the girls resolve things the 'proper' way...

But Kana is right, Ai is a perfect 'idol/entertainer', maybe even autistic in the higher spectrum...
Autistic? Ai seemed more like a sociopath, literally incapable of feeling and understanding emotions like the "normal" people.

I would even call her borderline psychopath, only borderline because she didn't actually commit crimes.

She is neither autistic nor a sociopath. Aka repeatedly showed that she was marginalized by those around her and therefore had little experience of healthy social relationships.

Oh i know that she is not actually a sociopath, but if we are trying to explain her mentality I think it would be the closest because she shows many of the traits, with pretty much just lacking the part that her mental state was a consequence of her environment and not so much of a mental illness.

You literally are the first person to comment on that here, the people before you where just commenting about the content of this chap.

Smells to me like you are purposely baiting another flame war, you WANT a fight.
Idk if he meant it on this comment section. I've seen comments online and on different forums about people who dropped oshi no ko after the 'incest' chapter, and they won't go back into it even after being told that it wasn't about that...

It was about the mangaplus section, where the second most popular comment was the hope that "incest groomers" would stop ship Aqua and Ruby after she called her brother a member of her family.

Personally, I always saw her as a teenager whose life was so abnormal that she simply did not know how to react to ordinary things. Remember how long it took her to realize that children needed to be told that she loved them?
