Oshi No Ko Finally Addresses His Feelings About Aqua Ruby
The series finally makes it clear that there is no romantic connection between Aqua and Ruby
In Oshi no Ko Chapter #150, Aqua talks to Goro about how Goro wanted Aqua to live his life, but he still wouldn't let him move on Sarina, i.e. Ruby. But in response, Aqua said that she only sees Ruby as her sister and nothing else; After months of the story dancing around Aqua thinking about Ruby's feelings for her, it's incredibly satisfying for her to finally be able to comment on it and scrap the idea of a relationship with her.
Who will Aqua and Ruby end up with in Oshi no Koda?
With the incest plot officially dead, it leaves the anticipation of who Aqua and Ruby will end up with. As for Aqua, his relationship with Akane has been steadily deteriorating for the past few years, despite Akane's growing feelings for Aqua, so it's unlikely they'll be a couple by the end of the series. On the contrary, Oshi no Ko In chapter 150, Goro forced Aqua to admit that she had feelings for Kena for many years.so depending on how things progress in the last part of the chapters, it makes the most sense for Aqua to end up with Kana.
As for Ruby's romantic prospects, there is little to comment on. While Ruby has had moments with characters that could be considered romantic, her relationship with Goro has been the only serious romance she's had that has been annoying, even after finding out she's been reincarnated as Aqua. Chapter 150 officially ends the incest plot, however Oshi no Ko it's likely that Ruby will end up not being romantically involved with anyone.
A big part of Ruby's crush on Goro was that she saw being in a relationship with Goro as proof that she was living out her dreams, but something that's brought up repeatedly in the series is that people need to trust themselves more. and don't rely on other people for validation. Therefore, The fact that Ruby didn't end the series in a relationship would better reflect the overall themes Oshi no Ko if it ended in oneso it's a better way for his arc to come in.
Did Oshi no Ko's incest hints help or hurt the series?
While the drama invoked by the incest subplot was beautiful on its own, it made the series feel very uncomfortable every time it came up in earnest, and on a meta-level, it took a huge toll on the story's reputation. , as Oshi no Ko the manga now gave the impression of mainstream manga revolving around something as taboo as incest. Oshi no KoHis reputation was at its lowest when incest really seemed to be on the table.so it's to everyone's advantage to throw it away.
Was incest ever a serious possibility in Oshi No Ko?
Aka Akasaka is great to have Oshi no Ko His incest is done with the subplot, and the important question is whether it was ever serious on the table. After Ruby learned that Aqua was Goro, she became more physically and emotionally close to Aqua, to the point where Ruby kissed Aqua under the pretense of practicing for the movie. It was clear then that Ruby's desire to be with Goro had gotten stronger after everything had been revealed, and being Aqua's sister did nothing to make her give up on that dream.
What's important about all of this, of course, is that the incest plot is only from Ruby's point of view. In the chapters dealing with Ruby's feelings, Aqua's view of things is never shown, and after chapter 150 it's easy enough to come to that conclusion. Aquan's lack of romantic feelings for Ruby meant that the incest story never happened. Future chapters Oshi no Ko will likely center around Ruby getting over her feelings for Goro, but for now this confirmation does a lot to settle the main point of contention.
