by

This article contains spoilers from the Oshi no Ko manga.

Anime viewers are eagerly anticipating the premiere of Oshi no Ko Season 3 Episode 1, which is just a few weeks away. The long wait for the return of Ai Hoshino’s reincarnated children, Aqua and Ruby, is nearly over, with the new season scheduled to air in the winter of 2026. Season 3 promises to highlight not only Aqua and Ruby, but also a number of other compelling characters.

The actors from the Tokyo Blade stage play were central to the second season of Oshi no Ko, with characters like Akane Kurokawa, Kana Arima, Melt Narushima, and Taiki Himekawa taking the lead. Now, in the third season, Oshi no Ko is starting a fresh story arc that gives more focus to Ruby, Aqua, and other characters.

8. Shun Yoshizumi

Dig Deeper! One Chance’s Assistant Director

Shun Yoshizumi is one of many people in the entertainment industry who have experienced mistreatment at work. He’s an assistant director on the popular show Dig Deeper! One Chance, and often faces anger from his director while handling various tasks and responsibilities.

Working on the variety show allows him to collaborate with Ruby Hoshino, who surprisingly gives him a lot of her attention. His involvement in Season 3 of Oshi no Ko will reveal the harsh realities of working in the entertainment industry and the challenges of constantly creating new episodes for a show.

7. Tsukuyomi

Supernatural Entity and Manipulator of Fate

Tsukuyomi is a recently introduced character in Oshi no Ko, revealed at the same time as Hikaru Kamiki. While she appears to be a normal girl, there’s a disturbing quality hidden beneath the surface. She seems to be more than human – possibly a supernatural being – which makes her very suspicious.

The latest trailers suggest Tsukuyomi will appear to Ruby Hoshino immediately after Aqua gives up on his revenge. She then seemingly triggers Ruby’s own journey for revenge within the entertainment world, putting her on a similar path to Aqua’s.

6. Hikaru Kamiki

Ruby and Aqua’s Biological Father

Hikaru Kamiki and Ai Hoshino share a significant history in the series Oshi no Ko. He’s been cast to play a key part in the upcoming Season 3, portraying Ai’s past relationship and his role as the biological father of Ruby and Aqua, though they are currently estranged.

Hikaru Kamiki is the driving force behind Aqua and Ruby’s quest for revenge in the entertainment world. He caused Ai’s death and secretly pulled the strings to make it happen, using his power and connections.

5. Mem-Cho

B-Komachi’s Social Media Genius

Mem-Cho is a hardworking and hilarious character in Oshi no Ko. Despite being in her late twenties, she pretends to be a teenager to maintain her successful career as an idol and online creator. She seems fun-loving, but she’s also incredibly skilled at the business side of things. Of the members of the reformed B-Komachi group, she’s the most knowledgeable about marketing, social media, and other essential skills.

Season 3 of Oshi no Ko will see Mem-Cho continuing to help her friends with their lives and relationships. She’ll also use her industry connections, which will be particularly useful in creating B-Komachi’s new music video.

4. Akane Kurokawa

The Genius Actress of LaLa Lai Theatrical Company

Akane Kurokawa faced significant hardship in Oshi no Ko. Her spontaneous behavior on a popular reality show led to intense online hate, and she struggled with severe depression that almost cost her life. She wouldn’t have been able to recover without Aqua’s help.

You know, watching Akane’s journey has been amazing! She really found her voice and started fighting for what she wants, becoming so much more driven and confident through acting – it’s incredible to see. Even though her relationship with Aqua is complicated, it’s definitely pushed her to grow as a person. I honestly think she’s going to be a huge star, and not just in the entertainment world – she’s going to really shake things up for both Arima and Aqua too!

3. Kana Arima

The Lead Girl of B-Komachi 2.0

Kana Arima was known in the entertainment world as a remarkably talented young actress. While she was far more skilled than her peers, her difficult personality and tendency to speak her mind quickly led to setbacks. This taught her a valuable and lasting lesson.

Arima currently works as the main idol for B-Komachi through Ichigo Pro, and occasionally takes on acting roles. She’s deeply in love with Aqua, even though he’s dating Akane Kurokawa. Unbeknownst to her, Aqua reciprocates her feelings, but her career as an idol creates a difficult situation.

2. Aqua Hoshino

The Reincarnation of Goro Amamiya

Ruby is pursuing her dream of becoming an idol, while Aqua is quickly gaining recognition as an actor and model. He’s been very successful since his powerful performance in the stage play Tokyo Blade, which really challenged him both professionally and personally.

Aqua is driven by a desire for revenge in the entertainment world, initially aiming to kill the man he believes is responsible for Ai Hoshino’s death. But after learning surprising information from his half-brother, Taiki, he’s now hoping to rebuild his life and career in the upcoming third season of Oshi no Ko.

1. Ruby Hoshino

The Reincarnation of Sarina Tendouji

Ruby Hoshino is a rising star in the idol world, known for her beauty, captivating personality, and dedication to her craft. She’s determined to achieve the same level of success as her mother, Ai Hoshino, a beloved former idol, and dreams of performing for huge crowds in large venues.

I’m so excited for Season 3 of Oshi no Ko! It looks like Ruby is really going to take center stage this time. After a bit of a quieter role in Season 2, she’s determined to uncover everything about Goro’s death, Ai’s past, and finally find out who her father is. It’s clear she’s going to be working incredibly hard in the idol world – she needs to hustle and make things happen if she wants to get her revenge!
