What Happens in Oshi no Ko Season 2, Episode 8?

Kana Arima in Oshi no Ko season 2 episode 7

Oshi no Ko Season 2, Episode 8 was all about Kana Arima getting back into the spotlight. Throughout the series, Kana struggles with her self-worth, which stems from her childhood acting days. Because of the bridges she burned and the relationships she lost because of her arrogant youth, her acting prowess had taken a backseat to her professionalism in an extreme manner. However, Aqua uses his one scene with her to propel her back into the spotlight, allowing Kana to put her true talent on display for the first time in a long time with a stunningly animated sequence.

Oshi no Ko Season 2 has been using the Tokyo Blade arc to examine the psyche of each of the main players in the series, cleverly weaving the manga characters they are playing into mirroring their personal lives. Moreover, the episode ends on a dark note, teasing Aqua’s desire to use acting as his revenge, with Episode 9 likely exploring his psyche going into this performance.

So, Oshi no Ko Season 2, Episode 9, will be released on Wednesday, August 28, and will be available to stream on HiDive.
