Hey everyone! Here it is - my reaction to ep 3 of season 2 of Oshi no Ko! Omg, we really get into it in this one! We get to know Abiko a bit better and see just how she might come to the conclusion that compromising even just a tiny bit on something like an adaptation will result in disaster. But her unwillingness to compromise on anything has made life pretty hard for her, and her mentor is here to give her some tough love over it, dang!!! They were fighting dirty!!!!! Also, I love Aqua's plan - he's truly a genius! What better way to convince her than to show her irrefutable evidence of how much goes into a 4D play?! Can't wait to see where this is going! Great ep! Enjoy! ~ MH

Lol this series definitely brings discussion. There’s a give and take when sharing your work, especially when successful and actually getting something like an adaptation. Restless nights, lost sleep, just to see what wasn’t exactly there on paper. Yet who else sees your vision exactly like you do? Fans possibly to an extent but then there are other factors to consider. Like what’s actually possible on paper and in live action. How much you can get away with as opposed to what needs to be changed for viewing discretion etc. I love how it’s breaking down the fourth wall so-to-speak without actually breaking the wall. It’s more than just self awareness. You really get the behind the scenes takes on other facets of the processes; not just the show. It’s really good stuff.

Right?! It really is a give and take. It's so hard to give up a little bit of your exact vision like you said, but yeah, there's always logistics to consider like how certain things will translate from medium to medium. Omg yes, it totally is and isn't fourth wall breaking! It's excellent!

Hey Melissa, sorry I'm a bit late for Oshi no ko this time because I've been putting off watching the episode all week. But now I finally got around to watching this episode with you. And wow, this episode was brilliant. I really don't understand why many people don't think this season is so good. Because you get so many insights into the life of a mangaka. And I've always wanted to know what goes on behind the scenes. Of course I could imagine that it would be very stressful, but I've always found it very interesting to see exactly what a mangaka's day looks like. And now I finally have the opportunity to gain an insight into it. Apparently it's not exciting enough for many people, but I personally think it's really great. The episode was so good, it went into the depth of a person who's good at things but is not at socialising in the most realistic way possible. Looks like Abiko's arrogance and sense of control is her coping mechanism to all the stress and work she has put on herself. It's really nice that Yoriko being a good friend, let her let off some steam. The part that stood out to me is Abiko as a perfectionist, being a weekly publisher, the reader's input and a monetarily successful series on the line causes her to deviate from her ideal story. She doesn't want to make concessions but Yoriko makes her realize that she already does that. That weekly mangaka life is no joke, Abiko looked horrible when Kichijoji showed up to her place. This is why I’ll never complain when any weekly series goes on an extended break because of the author’s health. They’re literally killing themselves. I really hope that Abiko gets more inspiration for the script from the stageplay and maybe arrange an agreement with Goa Senpai so that they can both work on the script. Because they are both fantastic people at their jobs and should work together to make this project perfect.

Hey Leonie, don't be sorry! This was such a great one! I can't believe there are folks who don't like this season! What! I think for me, the subject matter is maybe even more interesting because I have a lot more personal attachment to the manga industry than I do to pop. I'm glad Yoriko could help Abiko here! Her attitude is definitely a bit more understandable under the circumstances. OMG, I couldn't agree more about weekly manga! I'm not sure how anyone does it! You're so right that this will give insight into Goa's scriptwriting too. Sending her to the play was such a great idea!!
