The Kyoto police department charged a man in his fifties with assault because he attacked his subordinate for telling him Oshi no Ko spoilers. The incident happened back on February 1, 2024. [Thanks, Mainichi and Manga Mogura RE!]
The assailant and the victim worked for the Kyoto District Legal Affairs Bureau. According to interviews with people who knew the both of them, the two were chatting about Oshi no Ko when the subordinate mentioned unsolicited spoilers about Oshi no Ko. The assailant then yelled, “I hate spoilers!” and then attacked the subordinate. He grabbed him by the collar and kicked him around the waist. The subordinate was not hurt in the attack. It’s unknown what part of the story the subordinate spoiled.
Oshi no Ko is a very popular anime and manga series that started serialization in April 2020. An anime series started airing in April 2023, with both the show and the opening song receiving acclaim. The story is about both the struggles of being an idol in Japan, as well as a murder mystery as to who murdered the protagonists’ favorite idol and reincarnated selves’ mother.
