Oshi no Ko Marks Marine Day With Kana and Akane Swimsuit Visual

Oshi no Ko unveiled a new visual and special on Monday featuring Kana Arima and Akane Kurokawa in a swimsuit to commemorate Marine Day, also known as “Ocean Day” or “Sea Day.” This Japanese public holiday is celebrated on the third Monday in July. It gives thanks for the ocean’s bounty and highlights the importance of the ocean to Japan as a maritime nation.

Yen Press licensed the manga in English and describes the first volume as follows:
Gorou is a gynecologist and idol fan who’s in shock after his favorite star, Ai, announces an impromptu hiatus. Little does Gorou realize that he’s about to forge a bond with her that defies all common sense! Lies are an idol’s greatest weapon in this outrageous manga from Aka Akasaka (Kaguya-sama: Love is War) and Mengo Yokoyari (Scum’s Wish).
