What is the Expected Plot

Given the previous chapters’ emphasis on the challenges and experiences of specific characters, it is difficult to predict what may happen next. It is possible that the next chapter will revolve around Kana and Akane, following the pattern established in the preceding chapters.

Alternatively, the plot could shift towards its primary focus, which is Aqua seeking revenge. With the conclusion of the storyline involving their father and the introduction of a new antagonist, it is likely that the plot will delve into the current issue at hand.

We may have the opportunity to witness Aqua’s plan now that he has accomplished his former goal of meeting his father, Hikaru. He may even consider changing his occupation, as he is no longer obligated to remain in that position.

In Oshi no Ko Chapter 157, Aqua and Ruby are depicted as having a typical day amidst their hectic lives. After a long day of work, Ruby returns home and spends her day off with her brother. During their time together, Aqua asks Ruby if being an idol is enjoyable, to which she responds that it is, but also exhausting.

Both siblings, Ruby and Aqua, made the decision to surprise Miyako. Eventually, Ruby dozes off on Aqua’s lap while Aqua, also exhausted, falls asleep as well. Later, it is discovered that Aqua was reading a book titled ‘Tokyo University of Medicine and Pharmaceutical Sciences’, possibly indicating his intention to pursue a career in Medicine, as he did in his past life. The chapter perfectly captures its title- A Normal Day, Yet a Beautiful Day.
