As anticipated, the alleged spoilers did not disappoint, revealing the details of how Ruby Hoshino managed to survive the harrowing incident.

The previous chapter illustrated the smooth execution of the B-Komachi concerts. However, during this time, Hikaru Kamiki approached Niino with a suggestion to turn themselves in to the police.

According to the supposed spoilers for Oshi no Ko chapter 159, the next chapter will continue from the exact point where the previous one left off. Following Niino’s betrayal and stabbing of Ruby, she expressed regret and claimed that she couldn’t allow Ruby to surpass Ai as an idol. Niino believed that if Ai was no longer the top idol, all of her and Hikaru’s efforts would be rendered pointless.

At that moment, spoilers for Oshi no Ko chapter 159 revealed that Ruby Hoshino managed to defend herself against the knife attack without sustaining any injuries. Shortly after, Ichigo Saitou came to Ruby’s aid and stopped Niino by grabbing the knife from behind and restraining her. Remembering his failure to protect Ai, Ichigo was determined to prevent a similar outcome from happening again.

Immediately following, spoilers for chapter 159 of Oshi no Ko unveiled that Ruby Hoshino was not present at her home. Instead, it was Akane Kurokawa who had taken on her appearance. Meanwhile, the true Ruby was seemingly at the concert venue, preparing for her live performance.

Despite her shock at the sudden turn of events, Fuyuko Niino still took the time to greet her former President Ichigo Saitou. In an attempt to understand why Niino was determined to seek revenge against Ai, Ichigo speculated about her past connections with fans, including her relationship with Ryosuke. Although he had initially been Niino’s biggest fan, he eventually switched his allegiance to Ai. According to Ichigo, Niino was unable to handle the heartbreak and sought revenge as a result.

According to the spoilers for Oshi no Ko chapter 159, it was revealed that the truth was quite surprising. Despite Ryosuke’s actions, Niino had already forgiven him. It was absurd to dislike Ai, who was considered the greatest idol in the world. When she told Ryosuke to “go die,”he simply complied. This caused Niino to realize that her heart had been completely captured by Ai.

Niino reiterated her desire for Ai to continue being special, as that would mean she was still just an ordinary girl. She couldn’t imagine what she would be if Ai was seen as ordinary. She then implored Ichigo to allow Ai to remain the flawless and ultimate idol forever.

Amidst the absurd request, Oshi no Ko chapter 159 spoilers revealed that Akane had discussed with Niino about Ruby’s statement that Ai only wanted to be friends. Upon hearing this, Niino couldn’t help but tear up as she expressed her desire for the same. Akane then questioned Niino about the person responsible for making her and Ryosuke carry out their actions.

The spoilers for Oshi no Ko chapter 159 then transitioned to the B-Komachi’s final concert, which went smoothly. This also marked the emotional departure of Kana Arima from the B-Komachi idol group.

The spoilers for chapter 159 of Oshi no Ko then focused on Hikaru Kamiki and Aqua Hoshino. Hikaru invited Aqua to watch the live broadcast of B-Komachi’s concert with him. Aqua then disclosed that he had been trying to help Hikaru at Ai’s request, but it was too late to save him.

Aqua accused Hikaru Kamiki of being a dishonest liar who spread numerous falsehoods solely for his own benefit. In response, Hikaru feigned ignorance with his dark, starry eyes, pretending to be unaware of Aqua’s accusation.

Finally, the latest spoilers for Oshi no Ko chapter 159 have announced that the manga will be taking a one-week hiatus following its official release. The upcoming chapter is expected to be titled “A Showdown with the ‘Father’.”
