The Ideology of Love in Oshi no ko

"I love you" are words you have probably heard at least once before... unless you have no one who cares enough to tell you that they love you even if they dont mean it. Kinda sad.
"Yes, lying really is the greatest kind of love" is a lyric of the season 1 opening song by Yoasobi, and it gives us a lot of context upon what Ai thinks love is. Lying. 
And she is not completely wrong. 
According to the Ideology, lying to someone, obviously shows you how much you love them. "How you may ask?" "Isn't that toxic?"
First of all, I never said it wasn't toxic, now did I? But even if it is Toxic, its also a form of love. "How?" you may ask, well if you don't care about something, why would you bother lying. For example if you find out that your best friend's boyfriend is cheaking on gher, even for a moment you will ghesitate to tell her because deep inside you don't want to see her sad. Even though you will end up telling her in the end, you would initally not want her to  be disatressed and if you let that get the best of you, you will end up hurting them even more.
Well, in oshi no ko, we find out that even after killing Ai, Hikaru was deeply infactuated with her and continued to kill idols who got close to the amount of fame that Ai had which (SPOILER ALERT) Led Aqua to eventally kill Hikaru so Ruby could live, causing Aqua's death in the process. So, what do we learn from this, what really is love.
Oshi no ko, or my star, has one of the best decriptions for love actuall. It shows us that Love is different for everyone and that's fine until it isn't anymore. Like for Ai, it was lying, meanwhile for Hikaru Kamiki, it was Posessesive, Twisted and Obsessive which was fueled by Ai leaving him, causing him to kill her.

The King In Yellow. (The Repairer of Reputations)

  The King in Yellow: The King in Yellow (1895) is a collection of ten short stories by Robert William Chambers, in which the first four stories revolve around a cursed play named "The King in Yellow", that is said to make the reader insane.  The play is never revealed to us but some fragments of it are present in the book. From these fragments we have come to know about some characters - Cassilda, Camilla, and an unknown man that may be the King in Yellow himself. The reader has to assemble the meaning from fragments, unreliable narrators, hallucinations, and dreams. This ambiguity is intentional: the horror is built from what is NOT said. " The first and fourth stories, "The Repairer of Reputations" and "The Yellow Sign", are set in an imagined future 1920s America, whereas the second and third stories, "The Mask" and "In the Court of the Dragon", are set in  Paris ."   The first story, The Repairer of Reputations, starts wi...

Walter Russell’s Symphony of Creation

Image
Walter Russell , though known primarily as an artist, gave the world a radical scientific vision — The Inert Gas Theory — so striking that it even shocked Nikola Tesla . Tesla, a close friend of Russell, advised him to “lock up this knowledge in a safe for 1,000 years until mankind is ready for it.”   Russell himself once remarked, “ Tesla was an artist whom the world mistook for a scientist, and I am a scientist whom the world mistook for an artist .” Walter Russell made a really bold move by forming a theory that challenged even Isaac Newtons discoveries , or shall I say: A theory that denied one of the most fundamental laws of chemistry, the infamous law of conservation that is "Matter can neither be created, nor be destroyed" .   In his view, the universe is made entirely of light — appearing as compressed wavelengths (matter) or expanded wavelengths (space). And this process of compression and expansion, he claimed, happens everywhere, simultaneously, all the time...
