I'm New—Who Are You? 🐇

I just thought I'd close things off here since they'd slowed down, but I'm still happy to chat with anyone else who posts!

And it hadn't been asked yet—my favorite shows at the moment are Severance (live action) and Oshi no Ko (Anime).
What about yours?

OSHI NO KO?!! I love that anime! I'm so fixated on it right now

There are other recent Anime I enjoy as much, but none can compete in terms of sheer hype—the focus shifts between whether they make it in the industry or solve the murder, and I'm just along for the dazzling, depressing ride!

It's so good! I love the deep dives into the industry's secrets too.

Spoiler

Akane's near suicide was so sad.

I'm reading the manga but planning to get the first season on Blu-ray. It's my favorite series right now!

It's so clever how it mirrors our fixation on the entertainment aspects with that of actual idol culture. Like one moment you're focused on the deeper story and the next you get completely caught up in the superficial glamour of their performances: Forgotten is Ai's death or Akane's suicide attempt—because the music slaps, the girls look cute, and it just makes you FEEL. SO. GOOD! Beautiful lies indeed.

That's how I feel! It's a bit easier to remember the dark side when you're reading the manga, though.
