The End of the Play「終劇によせて, Tsui Geki ni Yosete?」 is the tenth arc of Oshi no Ko manga series.
Summary[]
Having wrapped up filming for The 15 Year Lie, the main cast spend the day at the beach. While there, Akane takes the opportunity to tell Aqua not to kill his father but as she walks away, she comes across Kana, who saw the two talk in secret. Kana mistakenly believes that they are still in love and encourages Akane to get back with Aqua, despite her own feelings for him. Akane insists they are no longer a couple and tells Kana to confess, causing Kana to run away flustered. However Akane continues the conversation the next day, revealing that she roots for Kana and claiming she will help her. In truth, Akane wants Kana to get together with Aqua because having a girlfriend around would make it harder for Aqua to take revenge.[1]
Later, Aqua has a dream with his past self, Gorou, who is content to disappear, having learnt that Sarina is alive as Ruby and is living her dream as an idol. He tells Aqua that he can do whatever he wants, whether to kill Hikaru or enjoy his youth with the girl he likes but warns Aqua not to make a move on Sarina but Aqua assures him that he only sees her as his little sister. The two then talk about Kana and Gorou assures Aqua he does not have to act anymore and is free to like someone too. Meanwhile, Kana processes her own feelings for Aqua over the years. Concluding that she has seriously fallen in love with him, Kana works up the courage to ask Aqua out.[2]
Kana and Aqua meet up in their high school uniforms for a date and the two sneak into Youtou High School to play catch where they proceed to discuss their plans for the future. Aqua plans to apply to medical school to fulfill his lifelong dream of becoming a heart surgeon. When asked about her dream, Kana talks about her new dream and she confesses that it is to become the only person Aqua looks at. Blushing, she asks him to attend her retirement concert with B-Komachi on Christmas.[3]
A few months later, the first screening is shown for everyone involved with the production of The 15 Year Lie, which leaves many in tears. Meanwhile Aqua is doing an interview for the movie, stating that he is not trying to make people happy with his acting. Aqua claims he does not love anyone and never gives it back even if someone does love him. Aqua goes on to state that acting is his revenge and it is revealed that he is being interviewed by Hikaru himself and Aqua bluntly tells him that he wants to get revenge on him, the one responsible for Ai's death, in order for them to move toward the future, setting the stage for the final arc.[4]
