Focusing on Ruby as the "main protagonist" rather than Aqua would've worked better imo. OnK being about a dying, neglected 12 year old girl being reborn as her hero and role model's daughter is sweeter and more palatable than a 30+ year old idol otaku inhabiting the body of his teen idol crushes baby. It also makes Ai's death hurt more
In fact, call me a normie for it but Goro would've been better as Sarina's childhood friend/local boy she befriends at her time in the hospital
