4. Chapter 137 Recap
Chapter 137 of Oshi No Ko is titled “Idol.” As Ruby starts ad-libbing, the assistant director raises his concern about the storyline getting changed. Ai was the strongest and the perfect idol, so she would never behave like Ruby.
However, Ruby’s acting is so persuasive that the director cannot bring himself to stop her. Ruby’s portrayal of Ai is that of an ordinary girl who can neither love nor trust and is sensitive. She got hurt just like a normal girl, which is exactly why she wore a mask.
Ai was just a normal, ordinary girl who loved with all her heart and never betrayed anyone. She was turned into this perfect ‘idol’ who always smiled and never showed emotions by horrible people who desired someone like Ai.
Ruby’s eyes conveyed the message, ‘You are the ones who made Mama into such an idol’ loud and clear. Everyone refused to acknowledge Ai as a person with feelings but an idol. Nobody tried to understand Ai, which turned her into the perfect idol ‘Ai Hoshino.’
The director refuses to cut out the ad-lib and wants to progress further. Both Ruby’s and Kana’s acting were praised. However, the manager seems more inclined towards Kana’s talent and wants to see her as a genius actor.
Ruby asks Kana about her performance, and they talk normally. Ruby talks about human nature, and Kana advises her to notice things more deeply. Ruby has realized she cannot replace Ai because they are too different. Unlike Ai, Ruby wants to be as honest as possible.
Kana acknowledges Ruby’s decision not to be like Ai. However, Ruby immediately tells her she won’t give up on their friendship, no matter what Kana does.
