【Oshi No Ko】 (2023– )
9/10
A Bold and Heartfelt Story of the Entertainment Industry
16 April 2023
I was blown away by the first episode of "Oshi No Ko" (Pushing My Favorite Child), which tells a realistic and daring story of the entertainment industry. The character development is incredibly nuanced and touching, drawing me in from the first scene.

Clocking in at a feature-length 90 minutes, the first episode breaks conventions and tells a complete story of the protagonist's mother. The themes of idol life and the contrast between lies and reality are expertly explored, making for a truly extraordinary viewing experience.

Furthermore, the episode is elevated by the beautiful and haunting soundtrack from Yoasobi, which adds a layer of depth to an already emotionally resonant story.

Overall, "Oshi No Ko" Episode 1 is a masterpiece of storytelling, and I am eagerly anticipating the rest of the series, which promises to be a thrilling detective story in the making.
