The DARK Side of RUBY Hoshino | Oshi No Ko
Ойын-сауық
In the Oshi No Ko manga, Ruby Hoshino has gone from the happy, cheerful sister of Aqua trying to become an honest idol to a girl consumed by the desire for revenge on the day she learned more about Ai and Goro’s deaths. Now with only vengeance on her mind, Ruby begins to take the same dark road Aqua once did to get closer to getting revenge. This video will cover essentially the first time we saw the dark side of Ruby truly in action.

Yo the end of Rubys arc where she figured why be close to the assistant director and wait till he promoted when she could just get to the director now? by masterminding everything solidified my respect for her character. To me, I’ve never actually seen Aqua manipulate people simply for his gain. He always ends up taking the blame or caring too much like with Akane, who was legit willing to murder for him. I’ve never seen him just be completely selfish and cold the way Ruby had been in that moment; she was like the Devil appearing as an Angel of help when she caused everything! I was blown away.

Light want to kill anyone in his way including his dad and misa. Aqua wants to take revenge without anyone interfere even if he is using Kana and Akane. I don't know if you read the manga but many times he kept on saying he will do everything himself while using anything he can. Yes he use them but he also trying to protect them, during Akane break up he is using her to find his father. Akane know Aqua is using her but she sad because she cannot help Aqua to kill his dad. Aqua told her he will take care of it and isolate himself from Akane after he got the information from Akane.

@@ZephyrRetro Characters with black stars can show pure stars. Aqua had black star at the age of 4 but we see that his eyes were bright star multiple times. Same goes for Ai. When she talk with Gotanda, she had pure black eyes but she had bright stars in every other scene. What i am saying is, Ruby can get over with her problem in this arc or can get even worse after this arc. Normal star eye she had in chapter 2 does not limits the posibilities.

Thing is you're right but most people miss that somehow. Everything that happens is because of Ruby/Sarina. Gorou loved Ai because of Sarina. He went down this path because he felt like he failed Sarina because he couldn't save her. Aqua's whole revenge path is because of Sarina. Ai died and he felt like he failed to protect Sarina's love.
And now after Chapter 133, the consequences of Ruby's past actions during her dark star arc are starting to appear
While she was stabbed, she said "To me, lies are truth" something like that let me watch the clip again 😅
this makes so much sense
I think it would be I think it would be interesting to make a video about the most powerful oshi no ko characters the reason why I think it would be interesting is because how complex power in this series is you could define power as who has the most powerful connections or maybe you could define power in pure acting or strategic skill overall I think it would be interesting to find out who's the strongest character overall because there are so many variables that make a strong character in this series.

I think eventually they will find out about their past lives and make peace. If they joined forces and stopped being stubborn they could bring Hikaru to justice. In fact, if they were open to all of the people in their lives they could have more support than by scheming and utilizing people as mere tools for a goal. If that were to take place in the final arc(s) it would be a very satisfying thematic payoff. It breaks the established consensus that lies are love. Because they're really not. They're an impediment to attaining real love.

Once they learn about the other’s past life, I believe they make peace with each other as well. I think you bring up a good thematic point as well. If they stop lying to others, they could have a larger group to support their ambitions, which would be an excellent payoff. Like I’m sure a lot of the characters we’ve met already that are close to the siblings would be willing to help them achieve their ambitions, Rather than Aqua being self destructive.
