Expected Plot in Oshi No Ko, Chapter 159
Oshi No Ko Chapter 159 is expected to follow the aftermath of Ruby Hoshino's stabbing. The main focus will likely be on whether Ruby survived the attack, as opposed to her situation with her mother, Ai Hoshino.
Unlike Ai, who faces danger alone, Ruby has the support of Aqua and Miyako, which could increase her chances of survival. How they react to the crisis will be crucial to this, including getting Ruby to the hospital and possibly arresting Niino for her actions.

Since this event happened on the day of B-Komachi's last performance, there was a possibility that Ruby would not be able to perform during Oshi No Ko Chap 159However, since Aqua suspected Niino of being involved in the murder, it was likely that there was some preparation beforehand.
Oshi No Ko Chap 158
Titled Jewel, Oshi No Ko Chapter 158 begins as B-Komachi performs on stage in front of their enthusiastic fans, including Fuyuko Niino. The former idol observes Ruby's growth as an idol, and considers her to have surpassed Ai Hoshino.
After the show, Mem-Cho meets her friend Anemone backstage, while Ruby is surprised to see Akane in Miyazaki, as the group's tour will take them to Tokyo later. Akane explains that she may be too busy to attend the Tokyo show, which takes place around Christmas.
When Ruby joked about Akane having a new boyfriend, Akane quickly denied it in Oshi No Ko Chapter 158. Ruby later suggested that Akane meet Kana, but Akane hesitated, admitting that she and Kana were not on the same page when it came to Kana's idol career.
Akane enjoys Kana's performances but can only process them by imagining Kana as an actress playing an idol. Akane admits that this tour marks Kana's last moments as an idol. Afterwards, Ruby and Akane discuss the challenges of being an idol.
Ruby realizes that although she excels in the field, her career is often short-lived and the only way to stay relevant is to become a lasting memory for her fans. Oshi No Ko Chapter 158 then cuts to outside the concert area, where Fuyuko Niino is talking on the phone with Hikaru Kamiki.
He demands that she surrender to the police with him. Niino refuses, believing that their actions, especially the murder of Ryosuke, have irrevocably changed things. Niino ultimately blames Ruby for her troubles. Oshi No Ko Chapter 158 ends with her stabbing her on Christmas morning.
