    Have you watched or read Kaguya-sama: Love is War? It’s from the same mangaka so the same caveats apply, except that because there’s less of the serious stuff and more of the really good character stuff and silly stuff his strong points can shine more and his weaknesses are emphasized less. Overall I liked it even more than Oshi no Ko.

      Huh.

      No - actually I’ve avoided it. I read the first few chapters when they were released and thought they were meh, and then when people started to rave about it, it triggered my contrariness, and I wrote it off as likely overhyped mediocrity - pabulum for the masses.

      I might have to tamp down my reflexive disdain for it snd check it out…

        I’d recommend it. If you read the first handful of chapters and think that you’ve got a general idea of what the series has to offer, I assure you that’s just the setup for an amazingly fun story. The anime adaptation is also pretty great.
