Coachella itself is highlighting this aspect of its performance, emphasizing the growing influence of anime on such major stages. It’s a testament to how anime culture has permeated global entertainment.
Looking ahead, fans are eagerly awaiting the return of Oshi no Ko for its second season later this summer. While it’s uncertain if YOASOBI will be part of the new season, anticipation is high, especially with the franchise expanding into live-action adaptations.
The new season will be available for streaming on HIDIVE, building on the gripping narrative of Dr. Gorou Amemiya and Ai Hoshino’s journey through the cutthroat entertainment industry.
The premise of Oshi no Ko is intriguing, revolving around Dr. Amemiya’s transformation into Ai’s child, Aquamarine Hoshino, after a tragic incident.
As the dark side of the entertainment world threatens their happiness, viewers are drawn into the drama of rising to fame while finding adversity. Based on the manga series by Aka Akasaka, serialized in Shueisha’s Weekly Young Jump, Oshi no Ko promises to deliver more gripping storytelling in its upcoming season.
