One user commented: «Isn't she being ignored too much? The current theme is quite relevant, about a manga author who intervenes in the writing of a play's script, causing the original scriptwriter to retire.». However, others believe that “the current arc is the weakest in the manga"And that the series"is broadcasting too late, a year is too long to wait.”

Despite the criticism, there are those who defend the quality of the current season, pointing out that “It's so much fun". Although, There is a consensus that the success of the first season was largely due to the popularity of its opening theme song, performed by YOASOBI.. “During the first season, the only thing that was talked about was the opening, not so much the content of the episode.“.

The series “Oshi no Ko” is about the dark secrets and challenges of the entertainment industry in Japan, presenting an intriguing and exciting story that attracted a large audience in its first issue. «The plot of the second season is still interesting, but the speed at which we consume and forget content in the age of TikTok is alarming.», reflects one user, suggesting that the rapid obsolescence of trends may be one of the reasons for their reduced popularity.

Other netizens pointed to the lack of impact of the new opening and the absence of favorite characters as possible factors. «The absence of Ruby, who is extremely popular, affected the reception of the season.». Some believe that the change in musical theme also had a negative influence, «YOASOBI's first opening was legendary. Not using a song of that caliber for the second season was a mistake.».

Despite these diverse points of view, the discussion on “Oshi no Ko” continues, showing the strong bond fans have with the franchise and their concern for the evolution of the series. «The story is still good», concludes one user, reflecting the hope that the series will regain its prominent place.
