Oshi no Ko Season 2 has shared the first look preview at Episode 8
Oshi no Ko has been airing its new episodes this Summer, and the anime has shared the first look at what's coming next in the 2.5D Stage Play arc with the preview for Episode 8. Oshi no Ko is now working its way through the play adapting the "Tokyo Blade" manga after spending the first episodes of the season showcasing how a play like this is put together. But now that it's opening night, Aqua and the other young actors are being challenged with giving their all unless the entire play crumbles under their potentially weak acting.

He's been hitting a wall as the PTSD of seeing his idol and mother killed returns every time he tries to use this bad memory to better his acting, and that's been the case with this play as he hasn't been able to reach the emotional depth necessary to really pull it off. With the test finally at hand, we get the first look at how this shakes out below with the preview for Oshi no Ko Season 2 Episode 8.
