Oshi no Ko Ai Hoshino VA Performs B-Komachi Idol Dance


Oshi no Ko Ai Hoshino Dance

Following the first episode’s release, the official Oshi no Ko YouTube channel released a special dance video of Ai Hoshino VA Rie Takahashi performing one of B-Komachi’s songs.

Typically, idol anime shows have original songs made for them. Despite being an atypical idol anime, Oshi no Ko also has three original songs, which represent the idol group B-Komachi’s music.

Aside from producing songs, the anime went the extra mile to create official dances for these tracks.

Ai Hoshino is a central character in Oshi no Ko, and she’s part of the idol group B-Komachi.

In the first episode, there are several scenes showing Ai performing on stage with her group.

While these scenes are not particularly long, three full-length tracks were made for the show, all of which are also performed by Ai Hoshino’s voice actress.

To go along with the songs and as a reference for the animators, actual dances for them were made by professional dancers.

Now, fans can watch them as three dance videos were released, which you can watch here:

The three songs include:

  • STAR☆T☆RAIN
  • Sign as B
  • HEART's♡KISS

These songs will also be released as singles, with the first CD volume set to release in Japan on July 5, 2023. Two more volumes will also be released later this year.

Along with these tracks, the opening song Idol by YOASOBI also got a music video shortly after the show’s premiere, and it quickly gained millions of views.

While the official dance videos are already a nice bonus for fans, a video featuring Rie Takahashi was also released, which shows her performing the dance to Sign as B.

Takahashi may be a capable singer, but this new video shows off her impressive dancing skills.

It should also be a treat for fans as Takahashi is easily one of the most popular anime voice actors today.

You can check out the dance video here:

Ai Hoshino aside, Takahashi is also the voice of several other characters this season.

Along with returning as Megumin in the KonoSuba Explosion spinoff, she is also the voice of Yuzuriha in Hell’s Paradise.

Oshi no Ko continues with Episode 2 which will be released this week.
