Roles「役, Yaku?」 is the one-hundred fifteenth chapter of Oshi no Ko manga series. It is written by Aka Akasaka and illustrated by Mengo Yokoyari.
Summary[]
Ruby thinks to herself that she's been acting for a long time. She played the role of a good kid in her previous life, she played the role of a baby earlier in her current life and now she's playing the role of an idol. She had kept her inner thoughts to herself much like Ai, and she decides to let the others have a glimpse of her real self.
She launches into a rant about the killer who killed her mother (spoilers explicitly say her mother and not Ai), about how the person she loved (Goro) met a nasty end and how she would be better off dead too. She immediately switches back to her regular self and asks for the others' opinions. Akane and Frill are amazed at Ruby's "performance", with Akane saying that Ruby would be unstoppable with a little polish.
Akane then performs her audtion. She briefly closes her eyes before going into Ai mode. Akane laughs and says that she's realized that Frill is actually trying to help Ruby get the part, and that the role they're fighting over is the role of Hoshino Ai.
