Status Updates From 【推しの子】 14 [Oshi no Ko 14]

And these incidents don't just happen to Showbiz; these can be commonplace to the workplace as well. 😖 It's hard to live nowadays. It's hard to set physical boundaries.

read Chapter 141 Volume 14 MangaPlus on Feb 25, 2024 (11th out of 11 chapters=100%) - Ai is right. Even if Airi was sexually harassed in the past (it's implied from her dialogue), what Airi's doing to Hikaru is still wrong. Miyako said that "the only way a victim can reclaim their sexuality is becoming the perpetrator yourself". What a daunting idea! 😡

read Chapter 141 Volume 14 MangaPlus on Feb 21, 2024 (11th out of 11 chapters=100%) - So many good points the creators are pointing out in this chapter, particularly the minors' "rights to say no" being slowly removed or taken away (applies to Hikaru, young girls being invited out by their bosses to pour booze for their superiors so their jobs don't get cut short). Such a heavy chapter to read! 😣

They are both hiding their emotions and they would have completed one another. Makes me wonder how Aqua and Director Gotanda got a hold of these juicy details. 🤔 Maybe, the DVD? 📀

read Chapter 140 Volume 14 scans on Feb 16, 2024 (10th out of 11 chapters=90.90%) - Ai and Hikaru would have been a wonderful couple. They would have really been the perfect "matchmade in heaven" (Just look how adorable they are in that "you are weird" bickering scene. ☺️).

He became a call boy cause he's emotionally manipulated. "Is this right?" has been the question bothering Hikaru ever since he's sexually harassed by Airi. What an emotionally heavy chapter on Valentine's Day... 💔

read Chapter 140 Volume 14 MangaPlus official on Feb 14, 2024 (10th out of 11 chapters=90.90%) - Ai and Hikaru have always been good at lying. That is what connected these two people at a deeper level. ☹️ I am so sad that Hikaru grew up sexually abused by a pedophile like Airi-san. He needs the money/allowance. Makes sense. 😞

read Chapter 139 Volume 14 scans on Feb 13, 2024 (9th out of 11 chapters=81.80%) - [Oshi no Ko] has sexual predators. And that's Airi. If it weren't for her, middle schooler Hikaru Kamiki would have stayed as an innocent kid. He would have grown up to be a pretty boy without having to experience sexual harassment. This chapter is difficult to read as it now revolves on Hikaru. 😞

In the same way that popstar idol Ai Hoshino became a jumble of messy lies cause of the hardcore otaku worshipping her image, Hikaru Kamiki transformed into a monster cause of the sexual predators around him. 😖 [I]Oshi no Ko[/I] is getting deep.

That seductress must have enticed Hikaru first! 😡 And, he went along with it. He's a minor. What could he do against an older female? He went along with it cause he's a guy, too. The editor's note in this chapter echoes in my head: "The magic of 'Lookism' can turn a person into a monster." which is true.

As a reader, I don't care about his backstory at all. 😖 Little did I know that he was also sexually abused by the people around him: including Airi Himekawa.
