Annointed posted:Everyone wants a piece of Aqua But Aqua's a useless drunk! ...Oh, you mean the doctor. Right, right. Caught up with this not a couple chapters ago. (Kinda figured I should between a friend recommending it, liking Kaguya, and the artist doing a ton of really good Chainsaw Man fanart) It's good, and I like it, but I'm not always sure where it's going, and not just in the good way. It doesn't quite feel like the manga has a firm baseline structure. Not that it has to keep it once it has one, but being able to get a basic feel for the story at a given point, even if the ground collapses under you the next chapter, and I'm not sure how well Oshi no Ko does that.

theGrooseofLegend posted:Honestly look forward to the bombs that is Aqua and Ruby's mom and Aqua's ultimate goal being dropped on any of these girls Without the reincarnation context (and that one's going to require a lot more trust to reveal), it's probably going to look straight up oedipal.

The filmed Pieyon was noted to be much buffer than the Pieyon this chapter (by the one person who's only seen the real one on youtube), and he does a voice that would make a fake easier to manage. Meanwhile, the Pieyon in chapter 22? Quite buff. Moreover, if you look at how Pieyon speaks in his previous appearance, his dialogue is very different. In chapter 22, he's confident and direct with everything he says. Even his questions are practical and on point, usually asked when he already has an answer in mind. Here? An um, a well, lots of ellipses, lots of interpersonal questions. He's got a completely different style of talking. There is a real Pieyon, basically. He's just not in this chapter.

This is only barely relevant, but I just felt I should mention here that Yokoyari Mengo got 71st in the second Chainsaw Man popularity poll, above such luminaries as the Hell Devil and Reze's boss.

MonsterEnvy posted:It depends. But generally the more successful the Mangaka the more control they have. Some also have different standards and don't care too much about adaptions. It's definitely the case here. The bit we see has intermediaries manage to move this scene should be less dramatic" to "up the drama". Poor screenwriter.

Don't know if anyone else here cares, but this week, Oshi No Ko got referenced in Shonen Jump. Me and Roboco, the pseudo-Doraemon series known for its meta references, had Roboco work as an assistant for the writer of "Oshi Noko", a reincarnation romantic drama with such a convoluted premise it was a surprise that it could be a hit at all! Roboco even claimed her name was "Arima Kana" when asked. Just thought it was worth noting.

Nebrilos posted:Kana has no chance with Aqua, right? He would never risk a repeat of what happened to Ai. I don't get why he hasn't officially rejected Kana. We saw that, in the future, Kana will be calling Aqua "A-Kun" and talking about how he'll get mad at her for going too far in an interview. She's got a pretty good shot.

Nebrilos posted:Why is everyone saying Akane is going to die? She doesn't appear in the flash forward and she's walking right into the middle of a murderous conspiracy while tripping death flags left and right. She's not definitely doomed, but she's at risk even aside from the whole "Make Aqua suffer" running theme.

Dexo posted:weird, you mean finding out and thinking that your revenge target is already dead, doesn't fix like a decade of mental trauma. Everyone knows the only treatment for wanting revenge is either 1) Getting revenge or 2) Farming. If you don't kill everyone responsible, and don't farm, you're just going to keep those issues going.

Or am I missing ironic post context since I haven't read the spoiler posts? There's a Vtuber in Oshi No Ko, so that lead to jokes about forum drama. That's pretty much it for now. Series is going well. We're finally getting more Ruby after she was backgrounded for a long time.
