The Oshi no Ko chapter 153 spoilers, leaks, and raw scans surfaced online ahead of the issue’s official release. According to the spoilers, the upcoming installment, titled “Fiction,” will lead the story into its final arc.
Following Aqua’s conversation with his father, Hikaru Kamiki, in the previous chapter, the Oshi no Ko chapter 153 spoilers reveal Aqua confronting Hikaru. Aqua announces that he seeks revenge on his mother for Ai Hoshino’s murder.
Hikaru remains unfazed and appreciates Aqua’s movie, 15 Years of Lies, from a viewer’s perspective. He adds that the actors delivered a charming performance, but the story is merely a work of fiction. He also explains that the movie exaggerates reality and is a standard piece of entertainment found just about anywhere.
Justifying his claim, he explains how Hikaru’s kissing scene with Ai depicts an age-appropriate relationship between the two. In reality, their love was not based on a mutual understanding. It was only Hikaru who was dependent on Ai in their relationship because the real Ai was independent and did not reciprocate Hikaru’s feelings. The unrequited love and rejection forced Hikaru to murder Ai Hoshino. According to Hikaru, their story had much less drama than what was depicted in the film.
However, Hikaru congratulates Aqua on achieving his revenge goal. He explains that he is out of options, and his love for Ai makes him accept her wish to seek revenge. Furthermore, Hikaru expresses his delight in talking to Aqua. Moreover, he is confident that his son does not feel the same way because, for Aqua, Hikaru is merely a crazy murderer who killed his mother.
Oshi no Ko chapter 153 spoilers: Hikaru reveals the motive behind Ai Hoshino’s murder
According to Oshi no Ko chapter 153, spoilers and leaks, Aqua stops Hikaru from talking further and asks if he understands what the movie is about. This prompts a flashback involving Hikaru and Kindaichi after Seijuro Uehara and Airi Himekawa’s demise. Kindaichi consoles Hikaru and asks him to continue living with the burden of their deaths, which worries Hikaru as he turns to Ai Hoshino for help. He states that the weight of life crushes his heart, and only Ai understands him.
Hikaru adds how he is burdened with being liked for his appearance. Saying so indicates his relationship with Airi, who only sought courtship with Hikaru. Hence, the words “I love you” were rendered meaningless. However, Hikaru believed his relationship with Ai to be different. He thought Ai understood him and vice versa because they faced the same challenge regarding love. Moreover, he thought there was no one else but Ai and him for each other.
In the prospect of proposing to Ai, he saw an escape from the mutual burden they shared. However, Ai turned down Hikaru’s proposition. She asked Hikaru not to meet her anymore, which, to Hikaru, felt like the world was falling apart. This is where the chapter ended.
