Oshi no Ko is finally coming back soon. With the show’s return just a bit over a month away, here are all the confirmed details about the new and returning cast members of Oshi no Ko season 2.
As this new season will directly follow the last one with no significant time jump, it should come as no surprise that many of the main characters are returning.
All Confirmed Returning Cast and Characters in Oshi no Ko Season 2
As teased in the first season’s final episode, Oshi no Ko season 2 will cover the manga’s Tokyo Blade arc. There, Aqua, Kana, and Akane will be given a lot of time to shine.
While there’s still no proper trailer featuring these three, the series did confirm the following returning cast members:
- Takeo Otsuka (Jinshi in The Apothecary Diaries) as Aquamarine Hoshino
- Yurie Igoma (Shima in Uma Musume: Pretty Derby - Beginning of a New Era) as Ruby Hoshino
- Megumi Han (Gon Freecss in Hunter x Hunter) as Kana Arima
- Manaka Iwami (Mahiru Shiina in The Angel Next Door Spoils Me Rotten) as Akane Kurokawa
- Rumi Okubo (Astolfo in Fate/Apocrypha) as Mem-cho
- Rie Takahashi (Megumin in KonoSuba) as Ai Hoshino
- Seiji Maeda (Wataru Matoba in Argonavis) as Melt Narushima
What’s interesting is that characters such as Miyako Saito and Taishi Gotanda aren’t listed on the website yet.
On the flip side, even though we all know about Ai Hoshino’s fate at this point, it seems that we will get more flashbacks, as her VA Rie Takahashi is still credited.
