First serialized in April 2020 in Shueisha’s Weekly Young Jump, Oshi no Ko tells the story of an obstetrician who finds out that his favourite idol, Ai Hoshino, is secretly pregnant. Being a loyal fan, he promises to keep it secret from everyone. However, on the day Ai is supposed to give birth, the obstetrician is murdered by an unknown assailant. Surprisingly, he is reincarnated as one of Ai’s twin children, Aquamarine Hoshino. Now, Aquamarine spends his day together with his favourite idol while looking for the truth about his murderer, who probably has ties with Ai’s secret husband. The story is written by Aka Akasaka (Kaguya-sama: Love is War, Sayonara Piano Sonata manga adaptation) while the art is drawn by Mengo Yokoyari (Scum’s Wish). Three collected volumes have been released at the time of this writing.
