Thrilling News: Oshi No Ko Anime Season 2 - Jaw-Dropping Twists Await!

The first season of Oshi no Ko has just concluded, but fans will be pleased to know that a second season has been confirmed. Before its release, Oshi no Ko garnered a lot of attention for being the latest work by Aka Akasaka, the creator of Kaguya-Sama: Love is War, and for having a premiere that was as long as a film. In the weeks following its premiere, the anime lived up to the hype and received high praise from both fans and critics for its stunning art and animation, as well as its captivating and deconstructive storyline. In fact, it became so popular that it had the largest launch in the history of HIDIVE.

Undoubtedly, Oshi no Ko was one of the biggest anime series of the spring 2023 season, if not the biggest. Now, plans for a second season are already in the works. Following the finale of the first season, it was officially announced that the second season has been green-lit. This means that the story of Oshi no Ko will continue, providing both old and new fans with more enjoyment. While details about the second season are currently limited, readers of the manga should have a clearer idea of what the story will entail. Undoubtedly, the second season will take the story to even more dramatic heights than before.

When Will Oshi No Ko Season 2 Premiere?

With the confirmation of season 2 for Oshi no Ko, the question that arises is the premiere date for the upcoming season. While season 2 has been officially confirmed, a specific release date has not been provided. Therefore, it is highly likely that season 2 will not premiere until at least 2024. There is a possibility that the premiere may be scheduled for later in the year, as occasionally seen with other anime series. However, this usually applies to anime that were initially announced as split cours, which is unlikely to be the case for Oshi no Ko.

Oshi No Ko Season 2’s Story Explained

The details of Oshi no Ko season 2's storyline are currently scarce. However, based on both the anime and the manga, it is plausible to predict what will be included. In episode #11, titled "Idol," Aqua receives an invitation to join the Lala Lai Theatrical Company, which is the same company that Ai belonged to. Aqua's participation in their production of Tokyo Blade leads Kaburagi to theorize that Ai encountered Aqua and Ruby's father during his time at Lala Lai. Therefore, Ai's involvement with Tokyo Blade is expected to serve as a means to uncover more information about Ai's history with them and possibly discover his father's identity in order to seek revenge.

Nevertheless, Oshi no Ko season 2 is likely to continue beyond this point. Season 1 covered the first four volumes of the manga. If season 2 maintains the same pacing, it will encompass up to volume 8. This significant development not only alters Ruby's situation in the story but also marks the transition into the "main story," with everything preceding it serving as a prologue. Ending season 2 on such a dramatic note would be ideal. However, for now, all we can do is speculate and await further information.
