【Oshi no Ko】 - Vol. 16 Ch. 164 - FINALE

[EulBassist]

Daaaayum

 

[SuperOniichan]

I instantly knew there was SOMETHING in this chapter when I saw it received over 30 comments within half an hour of being posted. Well, it looks like I was wrong and Aka really decided to pull out “what a twist!” without letting anyone save him. But I’m very confused by the way his death was shown. Or “death”? Especially after that dialogue about the importance of Aqua’s new identity. Is it possible that in the next chapter there will be another “this is the twist” and Aqua will really be saved or this turns out to be a fake future? Who knows? I’ll wait for the next chapter, of course, if this is really not the ending. Then I’ll be disappointed, to be honest.

Ngl, it would be funny if, now without Aqua, Ruby... you know. That would make Aqua’s dumb plan completely useless.

Well, it is initially useless, since he is the closest person to Ruby and she already broke down once, losing him. And this could break her again, her father again killed her closest person in fact and Aqua should have understood this. That is, through such revenge on their father, he himself actually repeated what he was taking revenge on him for in some sense.

Finale... so, where is the epilogue where Aqua is alive!? Please don't tell me this is how you make the ending, author!!! I will bring a knife as a gift for you if this is the ending.

How I wish it ended here.

 

[tobias5678]

At the very least I gotta respect an author who doesn’t go for a fake out death.

Well, don't be so sure. He coos often.

 

[strider_01]

I can't believe akane's a widow now I'm never forgiving aka

 

[ssj4maiko]

I now imagine Ruby searching for a man to impregnate her in haste, because there could be a chance again, right?

Spoiler: plot twist

Ruby collected his semen just in case every night while he was sleeping.

What? why can't we make the ending even heavier?

But when it says "You body was found by a fisherman 20Km from the scene, the damaged seemed to be minor", I thought `wait, he survived after being carried away for 20Km from the scene"!?

It most likely mean that the body/corpse was properly conserved due to the cold sea.

 

[Sholvq]

Called it. Glad Aka didn't pussy out.

 

[radstylix]

A bit disappointing but also respect that he actually killed him off. I have a feeling he might get reincarnated again (as Ruby's baby of all things), but perhaps there might be a limit to that.

And oof, I am NOT looking forward to Ruby's reaction.

Worse-case scenario: Ruby also offs herself which ruins the whole point
Depraved-case scenario: Ruby is pregnant with Aqua's baby, and reincarnates into that

 

[HunterCO]

Holy shit Aka actually did it

 

[ariche]

Oh hell na 😭

 

[LordTartaros]

Guys there are 3 chapters left, he can still respawn.

[Valle_reading_manga]

Nooooo, no miracle happened.
I'm surprised they'd just air the movie with two key figures going missing shortly before premiering though.
And relatives first hearing the news through TV seems rather weird as well... (my only rational criticism of this ending ig)

---

Akane best girl confirmed, although she failed in the end.

---

Why can't I have a happy end
Rip Aqua and ig next is everyone close to him getting depressed. Or we just get a huge timeskip to the past grief phase. Gotta hope neither Kana nor Ruby commit seppuku by then, but I wouldn't be surprised about more characters dying...

---

Can't wait for Aqua to be reborn as Akane's (or alternatively his step brother's) child

 

[GastrointestinalLot]

Akane vs. Kana for like 150 chapters but this was really just a tragedy for both of them

 

[Knighto]

eren yeager: did you score before coming here?
aqua: no, it's kinda complicated
eren yeager: I see, she called me family as well in my case

just saying Aqua did got late with at least Mem-cho (ch. 83 kiiiinda implied)

 

[wolfgang000]

so he is fucking dead for real? fuck... what the hell was this manga

 

[tobias5678]

eren yeager: did you score before coming here?
aqua: no, it's kinda complicated
eren yeager: I see, she called me family as well in my case

Didn't Eren NTR'd Historia just because?


This was the defining moment of aot. Every author loves NTR. ERENTR!!!

 

[silens]

I bet he'll be reborn as Ruby's kid.

 

[tobias5678]

just saying Aqua did got late with at least Mem-cho (ch. 83 kiiiinda implied)

I won't be surprised if Aqua actually plowed some seeds left and right but not on sight.

( Ruby & Mem-cho IMMA lookin' at you 2 ).

 

[UnvalidUserName]

Ngl, it would be funny if, now without Aqua, Ruby... you know. That would make Aqua’s dumb plan completely useless.

Imagine if Kamiki just swam ashore
I bet the mf will be reborn just so he can fuck her sister
