@AestheticWeeb801
Yello my fellow Oshi no Ko and Ai fans! I'm back (kinda). Unfortunately, this is not an announcement of a new chapter although after I ask this question, you'll find out right away that's it's somewhat connected to the fanfic.
So my question is, have you all watched the anime film Perfect Blue?
Author, I have a question. You've already mentioned that you're thinking of turning this story into an Au, first starting with the fact that Ai is obviously alive and that changes everything. But I wanted to know: will you be using the elements you already know from the anime or will you be looking for support from the manga, or will everything go completely on its own from scratch?
@AestheticWeeb801 I see, well don't worry about the spoilers, even if they discourage us, the advantage of a fanfic is having the freedom to create our own expectations and for these to have as much truth as any canon, it's the magic of the imagination, the possibilities, the butterfly effect, the power to create the impossible, for example many don't like the ending of Harry Potter that's why the community of fanfic writers created a group called "epilogue? which epilogue" where they could publish all kinds of stories that seek to expose different types of paths in the Harry Potter plot, from alternative endings, without magic or even where Voldemort wins or Harry is a girl!! and jk rowling instead of rejecting them, made them truthful, as an extension of the canon universe to inspire people to write and help them express themselves, so if there is a spoiler that you don't want to see from wherever it may be, remember your story and your version of the facts is as real and has as much right to be considered true as the canon because you make it real by expressing it openly and healthily in this story. so cheer up and don't give up, because for me your story is already a better canon!!
@elliotn578 I would say PROBABLY a bit of all 3? But i do hope I'll be able to just stick to my own imagination and what I already know from the anime (tho it's hard to do that when i keep getting spoilers on Pinterest lol) but as i said in my notes, it may change over time. Not to mention, i have prime again and will most likely watch the live action movie sometime in the future
Author, how are you doing? I hope things are looking promising for you. I'd like to take this opportunity to ask you a question regarding the fanfic, it's about Sora. Earlier, someone asked you what you based your creation on, and you answered that you used Nisikata's base with touches of Eren Jaeger. I'm wondering, is Sora an independent creation from reality, or could he be an expression of something or someone in your life, perhaps a reflection of yourself that you find similar? I mean, sometimes we create something based on what we consider to be about ourselves or what we would like to become. When I thought about it with Sora, I had to ask you, what would you say is you?
@AestheticWeeb801 and as I said ichigo did not overexploit Ai, he really cared and appreciated Ai, he supported her in everything since she arrived, he helped her with the expenses and even got her first home and put the money to pay part of the new more comfortable and bigger apartment for her and the twins, he helped her with the twins, the secret despite the threat that would arise to her life or her company and he became depressed and abandoned everything after her death, but he still did not dimension everything that the fame that Ai was gaining implied and what that meant and that is why he did not invest in measures to avoid problems or tragedies, let's hope that with this call of attention that almost took Ai, but thanks to your good story and sora the worst did not happen, she can become aware and do more to guarantee her life and that of the children.
@AestheticWeeb801 that's why I don't know if you've seen in series or movies that let's say boxers, singers or actors meet a private group of people or agency to protect themselves or even gather a group of trustworthy people like friends or family without training or protocols and arm them to serve as guards, all with their own money, an injustice, companies or agencies should remember that the people they sponsor and use to make money and advertise are not just products but people who risk their integrity to earn a day to day, and it seems that in k-pop or j-pop it is an even harsher reality because they tend to not only show no interest in the health or protection of their artists but they also squeeze every penny out of them, deducting interest such as dance, singing, acting, makeup or wardrobe classes to the point of not even being able to make a profit so that the artist can maintain themselves with dignity, below a minimum wage !! So first they don't spend on protecting them but leave them almost without money to hire a security network themselves, in the case of Oshi no Ko, Ichigo didn't do that to Ai, although he still didn't dimension or invest in everything that Ai needed, also it seems that in idol groups it is complicated because giving an extra service to a member creates conflict or envy with other members of artists believing that they are giving them preferential treatment, a very complex and difficult reality, it's incredible that Ai remains so strong in the middle of all that, although we know that deep down she suffered, but anyway, what do you think of that information? I thank you for answering my question, sorry for the long speech, and please continue working hard in everything, and give us when you can the next part of this great story,greetings.
I understand, I see, it occurred to me because well I thought, when we imagine something or someone or create anything, we usually do it based on what we consider would be appropriate or how we want that something to be, an example, are the architects who when they build bridges, in the plans they draw the shape of what they will believe to be a striking and resistant structure or they receive instructions from others about what they would like in reality that it would be, the same as painters or sculptors shape things in their perspective showing others what they symbolize of the world, that's why I was curious if there was something from Sora that you could have reflected, what clue could give us a vision of the world of our beloved author haha. And an omen? Or a wink? I love it!!! It would be wonderful, a story of the guardian who falls in love with his protégé, a bodyguard-idol story, like the Whitney Houston movie!!! I love that movie!! and regarding your observation, I started looking and you're right it's bad that they don't serve as a margin of safety for artists who are exposed to the public eye, the reality is that they are in charge of taking care of the performers while they are serving in the show, but outside of it, in everyday life they are exposed because an expense beyond the work on stage is monetarily unnecessary, if you look at the American pop genre like Michael Jackson, Madonna or Beyonce they make exceptions and hire security services because they offer bigger profits, but for the rest they leave the artist without these services to arrange them themselves, that leads them to take out of their own pockets the expenses to obtain security in their life outside of work.
Mention a shonen you like
@johnsantos2002 Gee!! Hmm, let's see... how bad, they took the most famous and best... I remember an old one I liked, Yuyu Hakusho
This fanfic grows more and more every day. I'm glad that this work, small as it may be (for now), has already reached the interest of many, with 11,000 views and a few more! Congratulations, dear author! Let's keep going and share more moments in this community. We're here for everything.
@AestheticWeeb801 I'm glad to see that you and your work are so supported, that this motivates and inspires you to keep going and continue with this project and other things you strive for in life and that it helps you move forward, that it makes you feel fulfilled when you succeed and accompanied on difficult days.
@AestheticWeeb801 We're still here supporting and waiting for you, author. If you need anything, you can count on us.
@AestheticWeeb801 Without a doubt, the quality of this work is evident, very well, keep trying hard in everything in your life, author, you can do it.
Have you seen the Kimetsu no Yaiba movie yet?
@AestheticWeeb801 If they continue like this with the animation, the battle against Muzan will be epic.
@gengarevolution3 Oh yeah, I've seen them, they're definitely better, the movie shows a less frustrating Shinji.
@AestheticWeeb801 We'll have to watch it then. Do you know which anime movie caught my eye? The new Evangelion movies are much better than the original series.
Hello dear author, I hope you are well. I don't know when you'll be able to see this message, but I'm sending it so you know that you continue to be supported and waiting patiently. You had mentioned that you're back to class, right? I wish you luck with that, and I wanted to ask you about any news about the fanfic, but as always, you should know that there's no pressure to update. Although hearing more about you from time to time to know how you're doing would be great. I appreciate the work you've already done, and I hope to hear more about it soon. Greetings and good luck with everything, you can do it!!
@AestheticWeeb801 I see, whatever you need, you know how to talk, vent, be listened to, get help or advice, you can trust me here, I hope you do well in your studies and work, I know you can do it, take care
@gengarevolution3 heyy!! Sorry for the long wait lol. I've been really busy with schoolwork and my job lately as well as some... personal drama (which is a whole can of worms for another time haha) but ya, the fanfic is still in progress. I'm sorta a quarter way through part 2 so hopefully I'll be able to reach the halfway point eventually but yes, don't worry. It's still here haha
Dear author, are you still with us?
Oh what a relief, I'm not saying this because of your stress but so we can still hear from you, hey, you know, if you're overwhelmed, if you need to talk to let out even a little of what's overwhelming you, I'm here for anyone in the community to talk to, good luck with everything and don't give up.
Dear author, a question, since you are writing this story of oshi no ko, the question came to mind, what is your vision of Ai, I mean that one of the central themes of the series is to find out what the real Ai was like behind her mask, her smiles and lies, which they used to protect themselves, they always give us a vision of her in the series about what she was really like, some details are concrete, others very vague that still give Ai shrouded in mysteries, which leaves us with the idea that to know what Ai was really like we would have to be subject to the vision of the other characters and otherwise leave it to the interpretation of what she was like, so I ask you Author, for your story, how do you think Ai was really? Of course, apart from the detail that you have already mentioned that Ai was very similar to Takagi, what else can you tell us about her according to your perspective?
@AestheticWeeb801 oh I see, I hope you do well in school, good luck and give it your all, and I see, an interesting point of view on Ai, I like it, I don't doubt that she has the ability to forgive, but from there to give second or third chances after she has been hurt so much, not only her but also her children or other innocent victims, I also like to think that although Ai forgives and doesn't hold a grudge, she is still not ridiculous enough to allow someone who affected her and those around her to enter her life again, everyone has a limit to how much they can allow to be hurt, even so what you tell me about Ai, yes, it sounds like her.
@sharonr1234 Hey Sharon! Apologies for the late response. School just started back up again so I've been busy with that. Regarding Ai's true self, I'd say she's really the type of person who is incapable of hating someone despite the harshness she receives from them. If anything, she'd probably blame herself for that person's reaction. Yes, it can be frustrating that her answers are pretty vague and indirect at times but personally, it shouldn't warrant hurting or killing her. I've seen some spoilers of panels from the manga about Ai (especially the video of her telling the truth) but I wasn't disappointed as the canon Ai was pretty accurate to how I thought of her based on what was shown currently in the anime. In other words, Ai is a girl who's gone through so much hurt in her life that the only way she could protect herself and others were through lies. She's also incapable of hating or holding a grudge towards someone which already makes her a sympathetic human being. Ya, that's kinda my take on it haha
If you could have something, anything, just one thing or person that you wanted, even the impossible, would you be willing to sacrifice everything else to get it?
@adelar1998 I would give my life and my kingdom now for a new chapter, please dear author!!
@adelar1998 I don't, although that is my greatest wish, I can't leave behind all the rest that although it doesn't make my life perfect, it makes it good enough to live without regrets, which makes it real, I wouldn't want for example what happened to Alexander the Great, he wanted to conquer the whole world and when he achieved it, he lamented because in his ambition he was unsatisfied because there was no more world that he didn't have in his power, there was no more glory to obtain.
