On Twitter, Mengo Yokoyari says he is aware of the success of Oshi no Ko among children and teenagers who follow manga. However, she also says that her content is more aimed at an adult audience, which follows Young Jump . So the mangaka advises that minors should be supervised by adults when reading something like Oshi no Ko.

“I'm really, really, really grateful that the kids unexpectedly enjoyed the story. However, the magazine is for adults and contains some extreme descriptions, I think it would be safer if they read it with parental supervision and care.

Also, my previous works have basically the same images, but the contents are all very adult-oriented, so it would be safer to wait until they are old enough to choose their own books.”

Synopsis:

The story follows a doctor named Gorou , a fan of a 16-year-old “Idol” named Ai Hoshino . But one fine day Hoshino appears at her office, however, saying that she is pregnant with twins, but her manager tells her to abort the babies. But Idol doesn't want to have an abortion, she wants to have both children. Then Gorou promises her a safe birth. Little does he know that an encounter with a mysterious figure would result in his untimely death, or so he thought. However, upon opening his eyes in his beloved idol's lap, Gorou discovers that he has been reborn as Aquamarine Hoshino , the newborn son of Ai! With his world turned upside down, Gorou soon discovers that the world of showbiz is full of controversy, where talent doesn't always bring success.

Anyway , Akasaka and Yokoyari started the manga in  Shueisha 's in 2020. Volume 11 of the manga launched on March 17, 2023 in Japan.
