About
Written by Aka Akasaka, whose best known for their work on Kaguya-sama, and illustrated by Mengo Yokoyari who worked on Scum’s Wish, the Oshi no Ko manga began serialisation in Shueisha’s Weekly Young Jump in 2020, and has 13 standalone volumes as of November 2023.
The series later got an anime adaptation in April 2023 produced by studio Doga Kobo with a second season already announced, but no exact date as to when it will be released, so fans will have to wait a little while longer for more details to drop.
