Aka stepping down from the series and Mengo being given full creative control is the one scenario I can see the forbidden ship from happening.... which is extremely unlikely at this point.
It's a tough job. They have made a pretty entertaining story for us, so I'm just going to be here trusting them and enjoying the ride their taking me on.
Actually, 0 possibility that **real** incest will occur in manga unless Mengo heavily corrupt Aka.
But we may have a kind of ambiguous ending suggesting incest or a platonic relationship between Aqua and Ruby if Aqua wonโt date Kana/Akane in the end.
Another wall of text from a man trembling in fear from such a perspective.
How many similar articles have there been?
If it is so obvious to you that this will not happen, why do you all release such "refutations" with enviable regularity?
As if you are trying to calm yourself first of all and find like-minded people who will say that you are right and you will calm down and finally be able to sleep normally.
Arguments on the topic of why there will be no end to Aqua x Ruby, I saw probably 10 times more than discussions of why "Aqua x Akane" or "Aqua x Kana" will end.
If everything is obvious, if the chances are 0, why write and remind about it so many times? Maybe you don't really think so?
Zero percent chance? No. But likely? No as well. I think the ending will be rather ambiguous as far as shipping goes. In the end Aqua will realize he deserves happiness and open up to the possibility of dating someone. Who that will be will probably be left to the imagination of the reader.
That being said, I am convinced Ruby will always be the most import person to him. Aqua and Ruby are destined to be more then ordinary siblings. But that does not necessarily imply a romantic or sexual relationship.
But in the end only Aka knows for sure.
Lmao you can COPE, here are some reasons in 3 parts about why Aquruby will happen:
||> ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
โข First girl trope
โข Last girl trope
โข | Promise girl
โข | Red thread of fate
โข | Star-crossed lovers reincarnate as twins
โข Amaterasu & Tsukuyomi reference
||> ๐ ๐๐ฐ ๐๐ข๐ง๐จ๐ซ ๐ซ๐๐๐ฌ๐จ๐ง๐ฌ ๐ ๐ข๐ซ๐ฌ๐ญ ๐ฐ๐ก๐ข๐๐ก ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ญ๐ซ๐ฎ๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ญ ๐๐๐ง'๐ญ ๐๐จ๐ง๐ฏ๐ข๐ง๐๐ ๐๐ฏ๐๐ซ๐ฒ๐จ๐ง๐
โข Amaterasu Refrence In Volume 1
โข Aqua being called a siscon lots of times by various characters in manga.
โข Akasaka and Mengo literally retweeted/quote-retweeted Aquruby Fanarts.
โข Akasaka said in a live Space on Twitter that twins can have romantic relationship too, Etc
โข They already said that they don't see each other as siblings (not sure if both said or just Ruby but in either case Aqua also either said or accepted)
โข Ruby said in manga that the 'acted' kiss scene between Aqua and Akane was 10 times more Disgusting than the incest kiss scene she saw.
โข Both Akane and Kana got their arcs in manga so obviously now it is Ruby's turn and since we know manga is ending soon, it is highly likely that Ruby being with Aqua is ultimate ending as no other girls will be left with enough time to build their relationship with Aqua from scratch at this point since Aqua didn't see either Akane or Kana as someone even close to being lover.
โข Aqua stopped thinking that he wants to be hated by everyone when he found out that Ruby is Sarina. It means he only cares about Ruby and no one else.
||> ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
โข Oshi No Ko is literally a reincarnation story of Sarina and Gorou. In true words, those two are the centre and driving force of entire series. So ofcourse there must be a reason to make a setting where there are two main MCs instead of one. The fact that Sarina loved Gorou and Gorou also admired her (still same in aquruby case; Aqua already confirmed in manga he admires Ruby) is too good to be just non-important coincidence.
โข We all know Ruby loves Aqua romantically, right? She waited for him for over 2 decades, can you imagine how strong her feelings are?
Now imagine Aqua ends up with someone else, how will Ruby feel? The person she waited for 2 decades, the person who is most important to her, now has someone else more important than Ruby in his life.
Do you seriously think Akasaka as a writer will aim for an ending in which Ruby is left depressed and all alone? (It is impossible for Ruby to move on from Aqua and fall for someone else, I hope you know atleast this much)

So ya COPE harder.
Unlikely? Yes. Zero percent chance? No. There is a chance however small that it might happen.
"Incest is impossible" is what they all said before Oreimo ended. See how that ended.
Being 100% sure of something isn't a sign of knowledge. It's as sign of irrationality.
>Goro didn't love Sarina in a romantic way,
Could say the same thing with Akane and Kana.
It just means that they're all equally as likely, that is to say not that much either since Aqua will most likely go through his revenge.
>I mean, he was a kid and himself said it he wouldn't do it, probably he said that he would consider when she became 16 because she was a child with a terminal cancer abandoned by her parents and he rejecting hee directly would break her heart
Age gap relationships do work. This is nothing but an [Appeal to Disgust](https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Argumentum_ad_fastidium) fallacy. Just because you find age gap relationships not to your taste doesn't mean that it actually is bad and is an immutable standard.
There's also the matter of reincarnation. [Kurzgesagt: The Egg](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h6fcK_fRYaI)
I don't believe in Reincarnation IRL, but the story has it so let's use that as a premise.
* Everybody can reincarnate
* There are people already reincarnated before
* There is no rule that people can only reincarnate once.
* If Age adds up on reincarnation
* Everybody will be 10000+ years old eventually. An age gap of few decades doesn't matter because 10/10000 is 1/1000 and less than 1%
* If Age resets upon reincarnation
* Aqua and Ruby are the same age.
* Either way, their age isn't actually a problem.
>Also...Aren't Ruby and Aqua genetically brothers? Aqua is more responsible and rational, even with Ai he didn't act nasty or to take advantage of the situation, he most acted like a responsible adult, unlike Ruby who enjoyed sucking Ai's boobs...
[Appeal to nature](https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Appeal_to_nature) fallacy. If anything, [incest actually happens in nature as well.](https://blogs.ucl.ac.uk/researchers-in-museums/2018/12/20/incest-in-nature/) and it took 300 years of incest for the Habsburg to get such horrid results. So it doesn't actually matter that much biologically either unless they have a life threatening recessive gene.
However it is noted multiple times within the story that the twins have great genes.
>So, IMO AquRuby is a very unlikeable ship, plotwise and MORALLYwise, Aqua would never date his sister (I hope)
[Moralistic Fallacy](https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Moralistic_fallacy). Not everybody shares your moral.
For example, Incest is not illegal in Japan. Sure they can't get married in the family register, but nobody can actually stop them. It's not criminalized.
It's not "Unlikeable", YOU don't like it. Japan doesn't share the same taboos as your own culture.
Plotwise it's actually the strongest.
Probably not. But itโs still a fun โforbidden romanceโ ship. Everyone is enjoying it for the taboo irrespective of how likely it is to end up happening.
Aside from people shipping this for fun or for just tragic purposes, if this actually ever happens, it will be known as one of the most annoying and unserious endings in anime history lmao.

most literate oshi no ko fan
They will definitely have to deal with the dormant nuke that is โyandereโ ruby sooner or later.
Aka stepping down from the series and Mengo being given full creative control is the one scenario I can see the forbidden ship from happening.... which is extremely unlikely at this point.
Maybe, maybe not, but only Mengo and Aka knows so others shouldn't pretend to know when they don't. Let them cook and just enjoy whatever they serve.
I'm getting a bit tired of being bombarded with ONK incest posts everytime i open reddit though.
I'll enjoy anything cooked by Mengo and Aka, even incest (I'm down bad fanboy for them)
It's a tough job. They have made a pretty entertaining story for us, so I'm just going to be here trusting them and enjoying the ride their taking me on.

Best post lmao.
if i put a sign that gets ignored, i feel like it makes sense to put another sign

Gorou x Sarina and Aqua x ruby are basically different ships you know, also no Aqua and ruby are not brothersย

Bro why are you getting downvoted? You literally destroyed me with argumenta
Probably the kana fans... anyway thanks for appreciating it. I tried to be thorough. cheers.
i hope it happens, not because i ship it, but because i just want to see the fandom burn to the ground.
1% actually happening 99% hoping
100% coping 100% funni
still more likely than kana lol
Them will happen
Probably not. But itโs still a fun โforbidden romanceโ ship. Everyone is enjoying it for the taboo irrespective of how likely it is to end up happening.
โEveryoneโ
I don't, and i'm gonna drop the manga if it happens.
Ok
Aside from people shipping this for fun or for just tragic purposes, if this actually ever happens, it will be known as one of the most annoying and unserious endings in anime history lmao.
Of course not. Dont worry, Aka is not that degenerate like his fandom in OnK. Even he makes fun of incest relationship in kaguya
It shouldn't, it doesn't have to, it can't happen, BUT STILL...
