The thought I keep getting stuck on is if I, a viewer of the narrative from outside, think Sasuke is a baby, imagine how strong that instinct would be in Kakashi.
He meets a twelve-year-old who so desperately needs help, mutually experiences a deeply-traumatizing first mission together, tutors him privately for a month while three different people have actively threatened his life, seals another active threat with his own blood, teaches and shares two techniques that almost no one else in the world uses, in the midst of this, they both lose their village's grandfather-figure-president-arguable-stand-in-for-god, and then he withstands three days of torture under the assumption that the kid's brother is yet another threat against him, and then that kid runs away with the worst person he knows, which Kakashi has also been trying extremely hard to prevent. How does that not completely change your perspective on a kid? Not only is that kid a baby to him, that kid is his baby. Forever.
I always think back to that part in Konoha Shinden: Parent and Child Day, when Kakashi looks at Sasuke and says, "Aah, kids, huh? No matter how bad it gets, she's still your daughter. Yup, that's how it is with families." It tells me everything I need to know about who Sasuke is to him.
Some Naruto lore I have absorbed from looking into Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Heroes 3:
Tsukigakure (Hidden Moon Village) is incredibly vertical. Like, unbelievably so. I thought Kumo was vertical because of all of those tall rocks, but this entire village is built on one hugely tall cliff. To be closer to the moon, maybe?
Everyone who is depicted as being from Tsukigakure is brown, which is fun (including Tsukino, the current Village Chief who inherited the title from her father, because it's also kind of a monarchy)
Everyone kept calling Tsukino Sato-sama, which in the context of Naruto villages feels kind of like they're saying, "Ms. Village (Respectful)", and that is very sweet. Imagine if when Kakashi was Hokage they just called him "Mr. Konoha."
Moon Flowers are used by Tsukino both for medicine (the leaves) and as a perfume that can be used to dispel genjutsu (the petals).
Part of their established village traditions are to be welcoming of strangers because of a legend in which someone from an unknown land ended a war within Tsukigakure. One of the rare pro-foreigner lands in the ninja world!
You know, despite the way that her fight with Obito ends, I really do admire that Konan made 600,000,000,000 exploding tags to kill him, because that is an insane number that shows no reasonable understanding of math.
If Konan had made 100 million exploding tags every day, it would still take her 6,000 days to make that amount of tags, which is equivalent to almost 16 and a half years. This would imply that Konan has some sort of endless resource of production, like that she just has a subdivision of Ame ninja running that do nothing but make exploding tags to kill her coworker that she hates.
(And even funnier than this, if we go back 16 years, Obito is around 14 or 15, which is exactly when Obito joined Akatsuki and took over. Which implies that the moment Konan met this teenager posing as an old man taking over her and her friends' rebel group, she went, "I'm gonna kill this guy," and stuck by that conviction every day for the span of her life.)
Thrilled to be watching this show again. Top tier anime!
"There's no telling who's got their eye on us and when," said Loid, to himself, because he cannot psychologically accept the urge to buy his wife pudding
Also I love how much Loid's job is just Take Your Family On a Pleasant Outing and Enjoy Their Company
Yor and Loid so proud of their baby girl for wanting to study, aww
"He's going about his work way too violently." I understand they need someone to fight but I don't love the implication underpaid working class people will attack families unprovoked kjghkgj
The way that Loid and Yor instinctively work together to each protect Bond and Anya from the rocks. I love one (1) family
HAHAHAHA not Loid hotwiring the crane for a crane fight. That's one way to solve a problem!
"Franky Franklin. You're as ridiculous as your name." "That's just the fake name I use when I run the smoke shop." Oh? New Franky lore unlocked
Honestly, if Franky and Nightfall fall in love I think everyone will be better off
Alright, Nightfall's legflip maneouvre charmed me a little. Sue me!
"If I felt like it, you guys from the West could never catch me, either." "Then why are you on our side?" "You've got the wrong idea. I'm not on anyone's side. I just don't like how the East is doing things. The country's too constrained." I like Franky more after this ep. He won me over with this speech and taking the bullet for Nightfall
Is that Baby Yor and Baby Loid smiling at each other in the new intro? PLEASE THAT'S SO CUTE
"Now's the time for Master Yor's Knockout Punch that she taught us." Now Yor has created TWO little powerhouse six-year-olds
"I'm in the mood to punish anyone and everyone." I don't care for Mistress Schlag, her vibes are musty as hell
[Subtitle: Mimicking Papa] "I always carry around two hankies just in case something like this happens." HAHHA Forgers, like Girl Scouts, are trained to be always prepared
(Also, what do you want to bet Anya forgot the second hanky?)
Update from one minute later: Yeah, I thought so
WAHHHHHHH little Loid playing war games with his friends while he still had a family 😭😭😭
"A coward like you would only hold everyone else back on the battlefield." Horrible thing to say, however, I do support the spirit of not letting your children join the military
"Have you seen Ostanians carrying out misdeeds with your own eyes? Did you directly talk to one of them to find out what they're like?" Again, not a terrible lesson, but a horrible man delivering it by hitting his child?
Also also also. You can't teach kids not to fight by hitting them!!
"When I get back from my trip, why don't we go around the festival together?" I see why Loid is such a stern teacher, with a father who only showed affection when he studied (he is nothing like his dad)
"Do you think I'm not fit to be a soldier?" "You don't need to be one. Wars are absolutely foolish." "But Ostanians are devils with horns growing out of their heads, right? Don't they eat people?" "I've got cousins who live in the East. Do I look like I'm related to a devil?" I love how consistently Loid is being told that wars aren't made up of good people and bad people. Somehow Spy x Family depicts this better than any other anime I've seen
I knew Loid's childhood was headed towards tragedy. Devastating nonetheless
ARE THESE EPISODES JUST GOING TO BE LOID AS A CHILD CONTINUOUSLY EXPERIENCING THE HORRORS OF WAR?? GETTING AIR RAIDED??? SEEING HIS HOUSE CRUSHED WITH HIS MOTHER INSIDE??
OH MY GOD SPY X FAMILY, WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME?
"I had plenty of reasons to pick up a gun." Oh no. OH NO
"Lorand Spoofy." We interrupt the horrors of war to say: Loid has only ever chosen goofy codenames that tell you he's lying about who he is kjhjh
New owl unlocked!! I love they way they animate creatures
He knew Franky from the war?? That's why they're besties. Also him sympathizing with him despite being on opposite sides of the war. He's a good man, Savannah
"They're conveniently making us hate each other, fight, and lose our lives." Who'd have thunk Franky'd be the voice of reason? Not me!
Also. I regret to say it. But Grizzled Soldier Loid is kinda hot
AWWWWWW LOID BEING A CRYBABY WHEN HE SEES HIS FRIENDS ARE ALIVE. SWEET ANGEL!!!
[Voice cracking, still crying] "I thought you all died because I found [the storage depot] in the first place." WAHHHHHHH
I knew these friends had to mega-die sometime. Rest in pieces
"I blindly hated the enemy. I blindly took up arms and blindly obeyed my country." As always: Military bad
This spy recruiter sounds like Nanamiiiiii. I miss him
"You're quite talented, Sergeant Spoofy." What a thing to say
"Actually, you will work for us. Otherwise, I'll have you court-martialed." HAHA blackmailed into his first spy job
I do love them consistently redacting Loid's original name
"Today, you will throw away that name and rank to become a shadow for our nation." "No one remembers my name anyway. That doesn't matter." Oh, Loid. Now they do!
Anya patting her dad's head to help him with his war trauma. Sweet angel x2
"Take good care of your friends." Aw this lesson is less about Tonitrus bolts and Strix and more about memories of being loved
"Are you saying these articles are made up?" That's how misinformation works
"Is that brain of yours just for show?" The Handler as Loid's spy teacher is cute
Why is this assassin built like a Titan from AOT LMAO. Haunting eyes
Wellman both being a symbol of peacemaking and also a guy who has affairs with the daughters of mafia bosses. Duality of man
"If you don't enjoy school, does that make you a failure? A rotten orange?" "Hm? That's not true." Thank you Henderson-sensei ❤️
Placing my bet now that the guy who got six bolts and still became an Imperial Scholar is the other teacher who interviewed the Forgers
HAHAHA Loid assuming Anya wanting help with her homework means she got another bolt and immediately fainting so Yor has to catch him. He's so silly
"I wonder where everyone else learned to be normal." Fake Psychiatrist Husband and Neurodivergent Wife 💝
The way Melinda is immediately obsessed with Yor after this. Me too girl
"This is the Lady Patriots Society. We're a community that does various activities together, including this volleyball team for mothers." New organization unlocked
"Is this your first time playing a team sport? I'm sorry. I know we called you our helper, but you don't need to worry about anything. Just have fun." I like Melinda
"As a mother and a wife, there are many times when I'm not sure what normal is." [Laughing] "My dear, we're all like that." I'm so happy for Yor finding mom friends 🥺💗
OMG I've should've known from the like greenish brown hair but Melinda must be Damian's mum!
Update from 30 second later: She is!! I wonder if she's mad about Anya punching Damian LOL
"But if it's difficult for you [to come again] for any political reason, I won't force you." This would be kind if not for the haunting aura that Melinda's husband exudes HAHAH
"But it's important to have people you're comfortable with around." [Yor blushes] Yor finds this speech very charming, as do I
[Loid, in his mind] "Even if there is something else behind this, I'll support her and keep my eye on things." Loid strikes a wonderful balance of Spy and Husband
"And he said he was slight interested in the National... Unity Party." The Shopkeeper said: Hey Yor, don't give me a reason to kill your husband
Poor Damian, it must be tough being in love with a psychic six-year-old
"No! Anya's family is more serious!" ["Because of the Mission."] "Serious about what?" "You're so passionate lately, Anya!" I do see why everyone reads this as a crush on her part hahah
"It's just that the director won't give you more work out of personal spite." "Personal spite?" Hahahaha Loid punished at work for being hot and charismatic
PLEASE LOID ACCUSED OF BEING A SPY PURELY FOR BEING WELL-LIKED HAHAHAH
"Gerald Gorey. There are allegations that you've accepted political donations and falsified medical reimbursement requests." [Narrated interjection] "He was just guessing, but he hit the nail on the head." Hahahah Franky is actually a really good spy
"Every experience is valuable, Chairman's Son Damian." I do enjoy the occasional line from Bill Watkins, Giant Baby
"Second Son isn't an uggo. He's just a shithead." ANYA PLEASE
Awwwwww Damian bringing Anya the cakes like she wanted
Not the teacher being taken out via cattle prod omg
I can't wait for Loid and Yor to take out these busjackers via what I presume will be entirely separate missions
"We're going to negotiate with the government, using your lives as our shields." Red Circus, like most anime criminals, does not mind victimizing children
"Should we send Twilight to the scene?" "We can't. He's currently in the Bayan region on an undercover mission." I guess the responsibility falls to Mom
Update from 6 minutes later: Or to Weird Uncle Yuri? Bhenchod Brother Coming to the Rescue?!
HAHAHAH Anya is smart to tell Becky she read the kidnappers' lips instead of their minds
AWW Damian, Becky and Anya working together to get rescued
[Billy the Kidnapper as Obito voice] I PUT BOMBS ALL OVER YOUR BABY, TWILIGHT
I was hoping the bomb was fake, I'm glad I was right
[Damian, in his mind] "Is she actually someone amazing? Was she raised by an assassin or something?" Yes to both, Damian!
DAMIAN TRYING TO TAKE THE BOMB HE THINKS IS REAL FOR ANYA. SWEET BABY BOY
Anya comforting him right back. I really do hope they are lifelong friends:
"We won't negotiate with terrorists. Let us prepare to attack." The State Security Service is the fucking worst
"We're just children! We're powerless! There's no shame in having someone protect us." Bill Watkins has really grown on me through this busjacking episode
PLEASE THEY TIED UP YURI TO KEEP HIM FROM SAVING HIS NIECE? EVIL BUT FUNNY
Henderson becoming a hostage instead of Mr. Austin. Everyone in this show is so self-sacrificing
"I'm not afraid to die for what I believe in. I'm much more afraid to live in a world where you can't say something is wrong when it clearly is!" Ohhhhhhh this Biddy backstory this is depressing as hell
Anya really is forced to absorb a lot of secondhand trauma via her powers, huh?
"Why do I have to go through so much pain for the stupid leash girl of all people?!" Well, dickhead, she's your niece! Probably you love her at least a little (Unlike Franky, taking a bullet for Anya in a roundabout way is not enough to convince me to like Yuri)
"You just told them they had until sunrise." "Do you really think they'll comply?" ACAB
Finally, Yor!! I have been missing Yor and Loid this whole time
"Did Ostania's economy suffer that badly while I was hiding outside the country?! Have all these kids actually been suffering? Is she doing this for all of their sakes, even if her head might get blown off?" Well no, but also yes, Billy
"Why are you so determined to get everyone food?" "To create a world where children won't have to cry!" LIKE FATHER LIKE DAUGHTER
"Are you saying by labelling you all as privileged, I'm the one who was furthering inequality?" HAHAHAHA psychological warfare from a six-year-old
"Just so you know, you're the one who raised me like this, Dad. 'Be the giver, not the taker.' 'Don't hold each other down. Help each other up.' It's because you taught me that, that I'm so proud to be who I am." BIDDYYYYYY
I don't know how they're making me sympathize with the kidnapper, but somehow they've managed it. Please don't shoot him
YAY EVERYONE LIVED! GO MARTHA MARRIOTT!!!!
Awww, Anya, Becky, Damian and Bill all getting Stellas for helping solve the busjacking. They deserve it! (Anya and Becky sending the note, Bill calming the other kids down, Damian volunteering to take the bomb for Anya, Anya talking Billy down.)
I love how much Becky's dad loves her. He's a good dad, despite being a Weapons Manufacturer, which is an inherently evil job I think
Anya holding it together this whole time and then falling apart once her Mama's there. AWWWW. Sweet baby girl!!!
"You don't need to have a touching reunion with your daughter?" DAD WAS HERE TOOOOO. Anya will never be alone as long as they live 😭❤️🩹
WHAT IS HAPPENING IN MELINDA'S MIND OH MY GOD
"She must be deeply hurt [that I didn't pick her up]. I must heal her heart, or it'll affect the mission." Anytime Anya or Yor has ANY problem, Loid goes, 'It's my fault. I must be a better father and husband.' And that is why he is the Man of my Heart
[Henderson picturing Loid] "I could introduce you to a quite renowned psychiatrist if you'd like." Loid is NOT equipped to assess anyone else's psychological problems
I appreciate how seriously they're taking the busjacking. Sometimes traumatic things just happen to Anya and she just has to live with it (thinking of her psychically seeing Loid get exploded by a clock tower)
I like that Anya's classmates have become endeared to her
"Lord Damian, you've gone really sweet on her lately." Hee hee
Hahaah their classmates have had enough of both of them
What do you know! Loid IS assessing Mr. Austin's psychological problems
"I'm not certain he actually realizes [he's lying], though. Could you look into it?" LMAO DOES LOID SOLVE HIS PATIENTS' PROBLEMS BY INVESTIGATING THEM
"How could my wife be more terrifying than the terrorists?" Everybody's got their triggers, Mr. Austin
PLEASE YOR TRYING DESPERATELY TO FIND SOMETHING SHE DISLIKES ABOUT LOID TO FIT IN BECAUSE HE'S TOO WONDERFUL HAHHAHA
[Loid, in Yor's fantasy] "I must say wanting to kill me over an omelet is abnormal behaviour." This is delightful, keep going
"A welcome home kiss is totally normal." HAHA HER COWORKERS SAYING IT'S NORMAL JUST TO SEE IF SHE'LL DO IT
I can't wait for Loid and Yor to actually have their first kiss:
"I'm not normal!" 'It's all right! first off, let's get you some water." "W-W-W-W-W-Woid is trying to kisshaah!" What does 'kisshaah' even mean hahahah
"Papa and Mama are flirting really loud." Hee hee 💞
LOL @ Damian getting jealous cause Ewen and Anya are playing space games together
"Yor, if you're unhappy with any aspect of our life together, please don't hesitate to tell me." He's SO Husband. I'm in love with him
Gjgkjgkgj poor Loid trying to keep his married life from falling apart while also taking on separate spy missions
"Winston Wheeler. He was a deep undercover operative from Ostania's intelligence agency, and it seems he repeatedly leaked Western secrets to the East." I guess dem's da breaks in the spy game
"You're the mole for WISE. Meaning the one over there is Twilight, isn't he?" Uh oh, this mission's not going well. Where's a psychic daughter and premotion puppy when you need them? (At the zoo)
"They are a belligerent and extremely dangerous species." Not the zoo teaching that humans are the most dangerous animal of all. True, but tough lesson
Impersonating your brother-in-law is a bold move, but I respect it, Loid
[Loid, to himself in his mind] "Why did you hesitate for a moment?" LOID COULDN'T SHOOT SOMEONE YOR LOVES 😭😭😭
The way Loid tries to walk away and Yuri keeps coming at him
(Also, the way this scene immediately follows Loid using the briefcase gun to show that Loid is not hesitating to shoot people in general, but that is because of Yor specifically that he can't kill Yuri 🥺😭!!)
It is kinda satisfying to see Loid beat up Yuri. Bhenchod Beatdown
"How's he so resilient? Is this what happens when you're raised by Yor's violen... er, love and affection?" Loid can't even be rude to her in his mind. PLEASE. He loves Yor so much
"Sis... I'm sorry..." [Loid drops his weapon] HE. LOVES. HER!!!
Loid is so upset with himself for caring about his wife too much to kill her weird brother:
I do love the spy techniques of Nightfall noticing Wheeler's gaze on the reflection
"Your idle threats won't work on me." "I can see that you're serious. What a terrifying woman. Can't say I dislike that, though." Winston Wheeler said: I'm not above flirting with the enemy
[In Nightfall's mind] "My beloved died." [Loid crying in Yor's arms] "Oh, how unfortunate. I'll help you forget her." "Oh, Yor!" HAHAH even in fantasy sequences they are still into each other
"You shouldn't let your feelings get involved with this job, little lady." Too late. You're in the Spies with Feelings Room, Wheeler
Did Nightfall break every part of her arm to throw that punch?!?
"But I don't have that fear [of being betrayed]. I trust him. I'm always, always, always, always, always thinking about him. That's why I'm strong!" Oh, Nightfall
HAHAHAHA Nightfall just swinging her dislocated arm at Wheeler. Improvise, adapt, overcome
"You don't need to kill him, and you don't need to die." LOIIDDD
"The reason Yor married me was to put her brother at ease. If she loses her brother, that significance will be lost, and it will set back Operation Strix," said Loid, with an expression that neither convinced himself nor Nightfall that that was the reason he couldn't do it
"The fact he doesn't call her 'Yor Briar' already makes this all sound like a front to me." Even Nightfall, Queen of Loid Delusions, can see what's happening here
"What just... All of my strength suddenly left me." LOID FEELING SO RELAXED AND SAFE JUST BY SEEING YOR SMILE HE CAN'T HOLD HIMSELF UP ANYMORE. BABY SAID: FLIGHT OR FIGHT DEACTIVATED 😭😭😭😭
"Don't let your guard down. There could be an unfathomable amount of hatred behind that smile." HAHAHA even Loid knows it's because of her smile. Loverboy!!!
"Maybe I just wanted to take care of you... or for you to rely on me." YORRRRR
Props to Loid for having the foresight to disguise his arm LOL
Wow, this is more of Loid than we've seen before. Spicy!
I like that Loid in the shower seems buffer than seems logistically possible from his build. The bullet-hole bicep is a treat for me, specifically. (You didn't need to convince me Loid's hot, I know)
"Also, I sort of wanted to wear a nurse's uniform." LMAO at least the Handler is honest
"Just don't do anything to rush to your own death. You're also one of my precious subordinates." Handler said: Everybody needs some kind of family, Nightfall!
Yor getting just slightly better at cooking to support her family!! Girls Who Are Bad At Stuff Rising to the Occassion
This is the second time Anya's seen a parent hiding a bullet wound!
HAHAHAHA I was hoping that Loid would see Giraffe Bond
Loid seeing his sleeping family and yawning to continue to demonstrate how at ease he feels with them. IT'S A GOOD SHOW 😭💘

"Proof that the foreign minister wears a toupée. I even have the negatives." "Well done. Now we can force him to resign." How could this possibly be enough to force a resignation? Is wearing a toupée a sign of dishonesty or shame in this cultural context??
"In an era in which the nations of the world were waging a fierce war of information just out of sight, this man survived the battlefield by being a master of disguise." Ooooh is this a historical anime? How fun!
Update from 1 minute later: The newspaper confirms this as a Cold War-era story!! Colour me intrigued
"Farewell. May you find happiness." What a polite end to such a callous breakup LMAO
Why does Donovan Desmond look so incredibly haunted LOL
"In order to achieve this [spy mission] you will get married and have a child." Ah, there we are with the premise!
Of all the spy strengths they've displayed thus far, I am most impressed with this blond man's ability to pull a newspaper apart without bending it. You must need to generate a lot of force:
"Yeah, sure. Take whichever one you want." This is about the average regard for orphans in Shonen Anime Societies
"This little girl happened to be a telepath." She's a WHAT NOW? What a casual way to introduce this fact
Honestly the random facts about what Anya likes and the bursting into tears with unclear motivation seems very much a realistic parent and child experience
"I just don't understand this irrational behaviour." I love how quickly Loid Forger aka Twilight, International Spy, has been foiled by this tiny, psychic child
Loid is approaching parenthood very casually so far. Surely a spy (pretending to be a psychologist, even) can recognize the psychological impact of abandonment on a child
Fjlkjfljflf what kind of society allows Loid to barricade his six (or maybe four) year-old child inside their apartment unsupervised all day LMAOOO
SCREAM not Anya immediately revealing their location from playing spy games. Also a very realistic problem to have
"Boss, I think we should just give up on the toupée." [Pulls out a gun and shoots him] "Transparency is essential in government. Toupées are a no-go." WHY ON EARTH ARE TOUPÉES THE ULTIMATE SPY PLOT DEVICE JFKJFJF
Love that the betrayal of the nation is SECOND to the toupée. They said: Wigs are for liars and cowards
"No one reached out their hand to save me. I felt alone, in despair, and so powerless all I could do was cry." We have unlocked Loid's parental instincts AND his tragic backstory in the span of 1 and a half minutes
"I'm a failure as a spy? No. My mistake was putting that little girl in danger to begin with. How could I forget? To create a world where children won't have to cry... That's why I became a spy." Alright Loid, colour me charmed:
Ahhhhhh I love Loid giving his enemy the chance to go back to his daughter instead of attacking him
Loid deciding to take Anya back with him despite all his misgivings bc he wants to give her a home 🥺💘 HE'S NICE
"Papa is a huge liar. But he's such a cool liar." Awww, Anya
I can see how being psychic and being able to hear every single child's confusion during a test would be distracting
"I... relaxed? What the hell is going on with me?" FATHERHOOD
"It is mandatory that the applicant attend with both parents. Absolutely no exceptions." For a society with such a cavalier approach to violence and orphans (at least where Loid goes), you'd think they'd be more accepting of single parents
Everyone's absolutely on Yor's ass for being a single 27-year-old. [Yor as Charlotte Lucas voice] I'm 27 years old. I have no money and no prospects. I'm already a burden to my brother—
"I have a client for you, Thorn Princess." Is Thorn Princess Yor's sleeper agent activation phrase? Her whole face darkened
Clearly Yor doesn't have the same violence-aversion as Loid:
Yor ready to fall in love with anyone who's nice to her. Mgkjgkg but same perhaps
"A spy...An assassin...? I'm... so excited!" [Narrator voiceover] "The little girl was straving for entertainment." The narrator's interjections are very funny
HAHAHAHA I love that they're both trying to fake date each other for very different reasons. Incredible, 10/10, love this
It's fun that Franky, spy gadget guy, is also now mission back-up
Also I take back everything I said about Loid's violence aversion
"I'll be sure to tell your brother that you came alone." Why is every woman that Yor works with (and, it seems, every woman with more than one line in this show thus far) seem to be so mean-spirited LOL
HFHLKHGLHGLGH Loid showing up to the party covered in blood and introducing himself as her husband when she needed a boyfriend. We love a spy who is terrible at his job
Loid managing to somehow make a really amazing impression on this party by being hot and defending Yor's past as a masseuse (murderer). GOOD FOR HIM
"The concussive recovery method is the latest in modern medical practices." Imagine going to your doctor for a prescription and having them kickbox you into submission LMAO
"Um, Loid-san, this may not be the best moment to ask, but why don't we get married?" SCREAMING AT YOR BEING THE ONE TO PROPOSE AND HOW KNOCKS THE WIND OUT OF LOID:
"No matter what hardships await us, let us be there for one another." [Explosions go off in the background] Colour me sold on this grenade-pin ring and spy-assassin romance
I love that they're going on a little family outing to prep for their interview
I can also understand how a political rally would be stressful for Anya
"I've completed countless missions, yet once again I find myself losing heart." Loid will eventually get used to his girls who are obssessed with nuts and knives 💞
All of them calling attention to themselves by helping an old lady deal with a purse snatcher ❣️ I love this family. I've only had the Forgers for two episodes but if anything happened to them I would [redact] everyone in this room and then myself
"I guess... receiving thanks every once in a while wouldn't hurt." "Papa is a softie." YEAH HE IS
"Papa and Mama are flirting." "No we are not!" HEE HEE
"Anya, are you going to be okay in this crowd?" Dad Mode Activated
Ohhhhhhh Anya helping the cow through her fear. Baby!!!!
OHGHGLGHLKGH setting aside how they managed to have at least three outfits in that suitcase, I really want to know how the quick change is happening in the middle of this cobblestone pathway to the school
"Why are you getting irritated, Loid? She's not even your real wife." I love that whenever someone makes an out-of-pocket insult to Yor (her coworker calling her a whore, this dorm master critiquing her lack of cooking) Loid jumps in and he's like, HEY, THAT'S MY WIFE
"My Papa and Mama are both so much fun, and I love them very much. I want to be with them forever." I also want this family to stay together forever, Anya 💗
Both Yor and Loid ready to fight this jerk for making their daughter cry!! I love them
The hope that Loid has because of his new family. This is really fulfilling a deepseated psychological need that I had to watch an anime that's just about a nice man
"He might just be the best spy in Westalis, so don't worry too much." With all due respect, that doesn't say much for the other spies, considering how suspiciously Loid acts everywhere he goes
Yor genuinely considering murdering someone to get her daughter into school 💝 Parenting!
"I appreciate the attempt at consolation, my elegant boy." This is how I will be responding to all attempts for someone to comfort me from now on
Loid just carrying a party popper around in his pocket for when Anya gets in. I LOVE HEEEM
Loid can waste government resources on a little play mission for his family. As a treat
"He's requesting agents. As many as possible," incredible how Loid immediately folds to his daughter's request to be attacked by enemies LMAOOO
HAHAHAHA Loid telling them in morse code it's an imperative part of Operation Strix, which is technically true, but not at all for any reason they would think
The way they're all like, "I will JUMP at the chance to attack Loid, been waiting my whole life for this," is also really fun
I was waiting for the spy costume. I am so glad it is a plot point
I can't decide what I enjoy more, Loid's blush over having to put on the costume mask, or the way the other spies are fangirling over him
Loid getting his butt kicked by Yor in this drunk roleplay does make me wonder if we're going to see that her assassination missions run contrary to his goals of peacekeeping
"I've come to save you, Princess Anya." "Papa!" "Wait, I'm supposed to be your dad in this?" AWWWW ANYA JUST WANTED TO HER DAD TO ACT OUT SAVING HER
In fairness to Anya's fear of kidnapping, she has been kidnapped before!
"Though, you're usually on the ball, so [discussing Operation Strix Phase 2] may not be necessary." "Well... I may actually be off my game lately." At least Loid's willing to own up to it LMAOOO
Firstly, what happened just now was definitely an attempted [redacted] crime, which is hideously uncalled for, what the fuck. But secondly: I love Yor and Anya bonding time
"I know it's really dangerous to be an Eden student now. But it won't be as scary if I train. I can do my best at school without dying!" I do love the idea of teaching this tiny child fighting techniques, but my god, what a thing to say
"Even if I can't be like a normal mother, I'm going to do everything I can for her." YOOOOOOOOOOOOR I love you
"She's already realized how amazing I am and fallen for me." Incredible confidence from Damian Desmond, Very Rich Six-Year-Old LMAO
"Mama, you liar. Smiling didn't help at all." I am very entertained by Anya's psychic child conflict management
Ffjhfkhfk I really do love the way that Anya tries her best to do things in a way that her parents would most approve of. Smiling first, trying to not get in trouble in front of the teacher when she punches Damian, claiming defence of a friend. She's a good kid!
What will Loid, who is not actually a psychologist, be doing during the day while Anya goes to school and his wife does her work. I hope it involves costumes
Update from 1 minute later: At the very least, it involves stalking elementary students from a rooftop
Update from 4 minutes later: IT DID INVOLVE COSTUMES!
Also. Also. How the hell would Loid's plan work if his daughter was NOT psychic. Like yeah yeah yeah, she knows she's supposed to be a good student. But it doesn't seem like he's explicitly told her out loud to be friends with Damian. So is he just hoping for her organic success? It's a good thing his baby knows exactly what he's thinking LMAO
I love that Becky has decided to be Anya's no. 1 supporter. She needs a friend!!
"Why do I find it so hard to speak when she's in front of me?" In a very expected turn of events, lil Damian has a crush:
"Plan B is done for." You are wrong Loid! Plan Befriend has simply turned to Plan Boy Has a Crush on Your Daughter
This at-home tutoring really resonates with my experience of being the child of Asian parents with high expectations when it comes to their children's innate talent for math
"No, Yor. You're not a stranger, nor part of someone else's family. Right now, you're the mother of the Forgers. I'm counting on you to provide whatever I'm lacking." AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I love the Forgers
I loveeee this parenting discussion around positive reinforcement
"I wonder what it'd feel like to have a real family," said Loid, tits deep in a family and fatherhood
"My sister got married?" I was waiting for this ball to drop. Can't wait!
NOT BABY BROTHER YURI BEING EMPLOYED BY THE TORTURE DEPARTMENT OF THE GOVERNMENT OMG
"[Twilight] is the villain who is trying to make this world fall into chaos. You could call him my natural enemy." NOT BABY BROTHER YURI ANNOUNCING HIS INTENTIONS TO MERC HIS BROTHER-IN-LAW WHO HE'S ABOUT TO MEET AT DINNER:
I gotta say, despite them introing with assassinations, I do feel like Yuri represents a drastic tone shift for this show
"Yuri... I mean, my younger brother is coming here today! [Loid's voice raises several octaves] "Today?" The voice crack was funny. Back to family shenanigans
I have so many questions about the lovey-dovey accessories. When did Loid take those pictures?? Why the YES pillows HAHA
As a sister. I AM SICK OF THE SISTER COMPLEX JOKES. WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU, BABY BROTHER YURI, ANIME AS A GENRE, AND WHATEVER JAPANESE SOCIETAL NORM THAT ALLOWS THIS TO BE A CONSTANT IN SO MANY DIFFERENT STORIES?
"What could my sister possibly like about this guy?! Just because he can cook a little, and he's handsome, and tall, and considerate, and a doctor," It sounds like Yuri is talking himself into having a crush on Loid????
Wow, Loid has made Yuri as an intelligence agent within like, mere minutes of meeting him. Maybe Loid is a great spy!
Ahhhh, so the reason Yor took up killing as a job was to put her little brother through school. How honourable!
"Kiss here and now." I can't decide if this is terrible or fun. Maybe both. My money is on Anya interrupting to see her Uncle
"I've had relations with countless women," is CRAZY, Loid, even as an inside thought jkhgkjhg
I do appreciate that Yor has never been kissed! It makes sense, given her murder job, and I feel like we don't often get 20somethings without prior entanglements
HDJHDKJDHDHD this is so unhinged and weird. Jesus. Yuri Briar puts the B in Behnchod
"Loid Forger. You may lay claim to my sister's lips for now." WHAT A THING TO SAY
"So, let's do everything we can to make sure Yor is happy." Loid is THE Husband. There are no other husbands, just him!
"Children are so curiously observant at times," said Loid, about his daughter who is literally telepathic
"It's a terrible idea to date a woman while deceiving her," said Loid, as if that has not been the premise of his ENTIRE romantic history thus far
I think Loid is starting to develop (romantic) feelings:
You know, I haven't really commented on the horn cap thing, but I do wonder if they are to do with Anya's powers rather than just a fun little design thing
I need you to see what I'm looking at when they tell me this is Bill Watkins, Age Six:
I do like all the montages of how all of these children (and Bill Watkins, Deeply Suspicious Age Six) were preparing for this dodgeball tournament
SCREAM THE CUT TO THE DRAGON BALL Z NAMEK BACKGROUND
Damian taking the dodgeball bullet for Anya. Love u little guy
Calling it right now, with all this lead-up, I don't think Anya's throw is going to work out the way she wants
Update from a few seconds later: Yep, that was correct!
Gnjghkgjhgkjhg Loid loves Anya too much to be strict with her so he is engaging in quite a permissive parenting style
ANYA TRYING TO SAVE THE LITTLE BOY FROM DROWNING WHEN SHE'S JUST A LITTLE GIRL HERSELF. SWEETEST BABY ALIVE
I like how they do a count of her Stellas (merit points which lead to the Imperial Scholar Society of Parent War Instigation) and Tonitrus Bolts (demerit points which lead to expulsion) whenever Anya gets closer to her goal
Also, bonkers that getting a Stella doesn't cancel out your Bolt? It's like, forgive, but never forget
Fhkhfkjfhfkjh Anya deciding she'll only respond to Starlight Anya. Very Six-Year-Old Behaviour
"Do you really think we go to some third-rate school that would hand out a Stella by mistake?" Damian continuing his chivalry streak
1) Extremely rude of the people to treat the dogs that way and 2) Does that big white dog's flash to the Forger family mean that we have unlocked a psychic puppy subplot?
I have been thinking since Damian was introduced that he and Anya are paralleling the Syaroan and Sakura Archetypes, but there is no greater Cardcaptor Sakura parallel than the fact this episode is called Penguin Park
"Please wait, Papa, who is a good and normal person." 10/10 spy deception Anya, no notes
Gghkhgkghkg Loid being yelled at by his Spy Juice Lady for not prioritizing this other mission. How does no one overhear this!!
"Mama, I'm being kidnapped," said Anya, as if she did not latch onto this spy herself to help out her dad's Penguin Mission
It's incredible how many of Loid's problems are solved just by him being hot:
Awwwwww I'm glad they did some actual family time after the Aquarium mission. Also I love how embarrassed Loid is every time has to do something silly, like pretending to be a Penguin Plushy for his kid, but how he'll immediately do it, even in public. Best dad!!
"Being both a Papa and an agent... must be tough balancing the two." Real and true, spy chauffeur
I love how they do parallel plots between family stuff and spy stuff. Anya looking for a puppy... Dad looking for bomb dogs!
They are in fact explaining the psychic puppy subplot
"It is far too early for Anya-san to get married!" Yor, I would like to study the way your mind works (also mom's here!!!!!!!!!!!!)
UHHHHHHHHHHHHHH EXTREMELY TRAUMATIZING FOR ANYA TO HAVE TO WATCH HER DAD'S IMMINENT DEATH BY EXPLOSION THROUGH DOG-O-VISION
That was an incredibly morose diatribe from The Handler, who is the only spy other than Loid to get a title/name
How is this baby supposed to disarm a bomb?!?!?!??
Ahhhh, by leaving a ketchup message for her dad on the door that says "NO! (Drawing of Bomb)" Of course! We love a girl who knows how to improvise
Dad has got back in the danger zone to stop the last of the Foreign Affairs Minister's terrorist threats, fair enough! I really hope they don't make him [redacted violence involving animal]
OH THANK GOD THEY HAD HIM ATTACK THE VEST AND NOT THE DOG—I WAS PRETTY CONFIDENT THEY WOULDN'T DO THAT TO LOID, BUT YOU NEVER KNOW WITH ANIME
From Yor's perspective, Loid has been in the bathroom for two full episodes
Yor kicking Keith the Radicalized Student Terrorist's car off the road after he has been discovered by Anya and foiled by Loid. We love a team effort!
"How many times must I tell you not to run off alone because it's dangerous?!" [Tearfully] "I'm sowwy." Awwww a very reasonable worry for your daughter who keeps running into every spy mission she possibly can
"I also had a daughter about her age." The Handler's tragic backstory unlocked?!
"Be prepared to take care of him until the end. I may have no right to say those words." Loid's dog care advice has accidentally turned into existential dread about adopting a child for the sake of a peacekeeping mission
Awwwwwww Yor taking cooking classes from her workplace enemy to be a better cook for her family
"Camilla-san has always been a nice person," said Yor, about the woman who called her a whore in front of a room full of people and tried to scald her with hot food on like Episode 2
"The more I savour each bite, the more I see my life flash before my eyes." Say what you will about Weird Brother Yuri, he is supportive
Admittedly this cooking lesson episode has made me like Camilla
HAHAHAHA the "They are whispering" caption so the viewer can understand why no one's reacting to the yelling about spy intel on Scruffy's potential lover
Awwwwwww Loid opting out of the family outing to comfort his little scruffy friend, who I have just re-learned is named Franky
LMAOOOOO at them just having Henderson-sensei do literally all of the classes. Top-tier writing
The Handler now has unlocked TWO new names, which are Sylvia Sherwood and Fullmetal Lady
"On the one day each month that Mister Moon goes away, Anya's power to read minds goes away too." Oooooh new psychic baby lore unlocked
Even though I don't care for Weird Brother Yuri, it is nice that Anya has someone outside of her parents to rely on for tutoring
Loid covering for Incompetent Spy Daybreak jkhfkhfkjhf
I love that Loid broke into the school, not to boost his daughter's grades, but rather to check that she didn't fail and leave it that way, and then reverse cheat (as in, undo someone's wrongdoing) to make sure two other students got their earned grades. What a man!
Ffljlfjjflkj Becky objectifying Anya's dad. I know they're six, but it's not a trope I love
"I was trying to report the cigarette I found, then he punched me." I know this is a scheme but what kind of society has SIX-YEAR-OLDS plausibly smoking???
"Second Son wouldn't do that! Anya was watching." Heck yeah Anya standing up for Damian (even though her Damian motives are decidedly ulterior LOL)
"Don't try to drag me into these adult matters in the first place!" An incredibly reasonable request from Damian
Gdljljggjglkj I love these kids telling Glooman 'Actually, the biggest problem is you have a bad personality' True and real and cutting
"Don't worry. The West is a safe place." ANYAAAA. Something something children and their ability to see people outside of the confines of politics
"There's saltwater pouring out of my eyes." The implication that George has not cried once in his six years of life LMAOOOO
Genuinely heartwarming to see all these kids singing for George and giving away their favourite school items for his sake (also I bet you $5 he doesn't actually have to quit this school)
Update from two minutes later: I was correct lol
I've been thinking about this since the hospital volunteering, but it is kind of a flaw in Loid's spy tactics to choose a public-facing job, because at any point someone could just walk into the hospital and realize he doesn't work there kjhgkjhgg like he should've just been some sort of private practice
Loid running home to "check on what Yor was doing at the school" but actually using it as an excuse to ask her on a lunch date <3
As if the show could psychically tell that I was wondering about it, they are now forcing Loid into a "Take Your Kid to Work Day" situation lmaooo
"[Loid] became an important part of our team as soon as he transferred in." How is Loid an important part of the staff if he's constantly out of hospital doing spy stuff??? How is he even capable of giving psychological care???
"To go with the rest of the facade, a number of my coworkers have also inflitrated this hospital." Ah, perhaps the fact he has a research position and other spies in the hospital is enough to cover his absences and maybe make him have fake patients
Honestly, it's a wonder Anya hasn't run into more problems in the spy realm recently other than getting stuck in a secret passage
HHGKJHGKJHGKJGH Loid taking Anya's improvised sandbox of toys as a sign of deep psychological distress
"He golfs at his workplace and creates shady channels." In every class there is one child who has the most chaotic possible interpretation of their parents' job (the kid who says their parent stabs people for money when really their parent is a tattoo artist) and Anya has decided to be that student
"But if Mrs. Forger just happened to retire, that position would have to be filled, would it not?" Why is Fiona so comically evil about getting to fake marry Loid
"But... this woman doesn't seem to have any flaws in her appearance." Even Father-snatcher Fiona Frost thinks Yor is hot
"To think the great Twilight is stuck playing house.. It's a disservice to the world." Loid said: Fuck you Fiona, I like playing house!
This silent spy standoff has certainly taken a turn:
I actually kind of love that Loid is faced with someone else who has feelings for him, because I KNOW for certain he will choose Yor, and I think that's good for Yor to see
"You're already working hard enough, Yor. That's why Anya is so fond of you. I couldn't ask you to do anything more." HE LOVES HERRRRR
I really resonate with Yor's Girls Who Are Bad At Stuff representation kjhgkgjh
"Agent Penguin suffered honourable injuries in battle." Loid sewing up his daughter's penguin stuffy and making up a backstory for their dog chewing him up ❤️ I love hiiiim
I appreciate that Fiona confirms from someone who knew him before Loid has been changed by love (for Yor and Anya)
NOT THE DOUBLE FAKE TENNIS COUPLE NAMES BEING TWAIN AND NAFALIA PHONY
Though, now that I think of it, I guess Loid's given last name is Forger, so really this is a pattern of very silly names
"We've been developing a new doping agent called OSO-R along with the government in preparation for the upcoming East-West Sports Exhibition." Every so often they dip back into the crime world, and today it's sports doping
"I wonder what her relationship with Loid is." Yor babygirl, you do not need to worry about her, Loid is fully Team Yor
I love this little look into all the different things that come up in an infiltration (having to be very good at specific things like tennis, dealing with potential poisons, compensating for traps)
"You're still young, and you're clearly talented. From now on, hone your craft properly. I'm sure you'll become an amazing player." "Twain, I'll really do my best from now on!" Aside from being an incredible professional tennis player, Loid's talents also include reforming his opponents into better people:
Fhfhfkjhfkfjhf Loid every time Fiona comes near Yor: Hey, please leave my wife alone
"Come at me with everything you've got." "Uh, don't, Fiona." Loid knows Yor has enough physical might to beat a hundred tennis players
Yor wanting Loid to praise her for winning the match 🥺❤️
Loid taking Yor on a reassurance date to let her know she's still #1
"Wait, does Yor have romantic feelings for me?!" TOOK YOU LONG ENOUGH, BUT YOU GOT THERE, LOID
NOT LOID IMMEDIATELY SWITCHING TO PLAN HONEY TRAP AND YOR ACCIDENTALLY KICKING SOME SENSE TO HIM
"I can't let my guard down like that. Somehow, being with Yor throws me off." Loid, you stupid man, who can't see that him AND his wife have feelings for each other
[Loid, slightly flushed, internally] "We agents of the state have been trying to rebuild this world through our blood, sweat and tears. Yet she managed to accomplish that all on her own." Oh he LOVES Yor
"I would love for you to continue being Anya's mother. And to continue in the role of my wife." This is the most honest thing Loid has said in hours
Props to Anya for knowing her strengths and focusing on friendship over Stellas
"Stupid daughter of that violent, bribing doctor!" HAHA Take Your Kid to Work Day really haunts them
Anya getting Becky a keychain because she didn't think she was allowed to get one for herself!! Sweet girl
What kind of father has ZERO time to interact with his son LMAO (Donovan Desmond, apparently)
"Anya's a little scared because she's not sure if Papa loves her or not. He always gets mad at me. But I believe in him because I love him." ANYAAAAAAAAAA
Papa Desmond and his truly haunting eyes finally make an on-screen appearance and meeting with Loid:
"Even the child that shares your blood is a stranger." Is this a general view from Donovan on his parent-child relationships or is this a shot at Loid for not being Anya's biological father?
"People will never be able to understand each other." What a thing to say about your six-year-old, who is standing right in front of you with his friends
"What's truly important is to continue walking them despite [not understanding each other]. I decided that I would accept her regardless, and I try to find every opportunity I can to talk to her." Loid laying spy groundwork on top of challenging Donovan to be a better father. We love a man who can multitask
"I'm pretty sure she doesn't actually dislike you. It'd make me happy if you could be friends with her." "Well, I want to, too..." Gjhgjhgjhfjlfj Loid is also working on Operation Playdate
This has been a pretty delightful show so far. Spy x Family proving to everyone you can fight people AND be nice!!!!
Awww, I like that Bond Forger the Dog also gets an intro about HIS secret identity. Equal opportunity deceit
Are we finally going to learn who exactly Yor is fighting? I would like to know!
Been there Anya, I also had little patience for watching the news as as a kid. Though, it seems more important in a pre-internet era
"Okay, you can change the channel." Loid Forger, International Spy, defeated by one (1) sad look from his little daughter
"I absolutely cannot tell him that I got shot in the butt while fighting a group of armed men." 10/10 episode plot, I cannot wait
"I've been relying on her too much without realizing it, and it's upset her. Yes, that must be it! I must do everything in my power to remedy this at once!" Loid immediately blaming Yor's mood on himself and deciding he has to be respond by being a better husband!!! I will keep saying it. He is THE Husband. World's Most Husband
"Why don't we go on a date?" HEE HEE
Puzzling that Yor thinks she hasn't been on a date though, when I can think of at least three dates so far (party-grenade-proposal date, lunch date, and drinks-and-reassurance date)
"I can't leave Anya alone at home, and this is a very important mission to ensure that we remain one happy family." It seems Loid has learned from the spy transmission debacle
"Last night, I came up with 862 date plans to ensure that Yor has fun." He's insane. I want to give him a leetle kiss
HAHAHAHA Franky being absolutely thrilled to bother Loid and Yor on their date. What a friendship 💕
Intriguing that Anya's telepathy has a distance limit. Tell me more!
Honestly, Yor having to position herself in a specific way to avoid pain is relatable. We love a chronic pain queen
"This woman had built up an immunity to poisons." HAHAHAHAHA the poison fixing Yor's pain. Sometimes, drinking does solve your problems!
LMAOOOO them censoring the bomb components. A real "don't try this at home" moment
NOT THE BABY MAKING THE BOMB. ANYA PLEASE
"I'm going to forget all this and live a normal life." Perfect. Forgers reforming their enemies left and right
"If it's not too much trouble, please invite me out again sometime." Never let being married stand in the way of your husband becoming your boyfriend 🥰
SCREAM at Bond's perception of what Loid does for work. I guess he's closer to the truth than most:
"Are you trying to do this for your... no. Are you trying to get revenge for your friends who were experimented on?" HAHAHA is Loid blushing because he wants to call himself his dog's dad?
FBKFJHFFHKJHF Loid taking on Bond as his mission back-up. He truly can be swayed so easily
WHERE DID LOID GET A DOG-SIZED SKI MASK AHHAHAHA
I love the giant puppy spy sidekick, employ this dog ASAP
"While they're busy playing, I'm going to work hard to get to the top," said Damian Desmond, Six Years Old, for whom The Top was beating all the other little bougie first graders
"Your friendship... preciously elegant." Me whenever I finish hanging out with my friends
I love that Henderson-sensei sends the kids out on a picnic as a punishment. He really is as silly as he is strict
I don't know if this is a vegetarian thing or a cultural thing but it always seems wild to me how people in anime bite into fish, scales and all
"Did you know that the most recent studies in neuroscience suggest that your brain feels really revitalized when you're spacing out?" I like Mr. Green, Grizzled Navy Custodian, too
HAHA Damian trying his hardest to space out. Me when people tell me to practice mindfulness
"Oh, you don't [have a goal], eh? That's perfectly fine!" "Actually, I want to live my life eating lots of snacks." "Splendid! You'll have to think earnestly about how to make that possible." I take it back, I LOVE MR. GREEN
Ready to sob about this field trip actually. AHHHHHHH:
"Good evening, Mr. Vile Trash." ACAB; All Cops are (Weird) Brothers
"What's so wrong about trying to improve the country my family lives in?" Nothing but the hostile, paternalistic nationalism of a Cold War, Frank Perkin, Newspaper Sensationalist and Adult Bully of Wealthy Children
"I'll request that your father gets some financial aid to get by." I feel like that will not make up for imprisoning his son, Yuri, but whatever helps you sleep
"Blech." That's also how I feel about Weird Brother Yuri, Anya
"Revenge will only make you sadder. I'll make you forget about all that with my love." This is the plot of Naruto
Honestly, I was super sold on the Bondman Polycule when it was just him, his spy partner Agent M, and the enemy spy lady who had all linked arms together. I feel like this could work:
"How was anything he did gentlemanly?" Loid said: I'm a one-woman kind of spy
"Lord Damian, how could you possibly pick the joker there." "Shut up!' [Internally] She's so unfair... Damn it! I like to believe Loid might approve of Damian's crush purely because he is also willing to do whatever Anya wants if she makes one (1) sad face
Poor Anya. She's really most suited to using her street smarts
"Garden? The group of assassins who have been in this country for ages? They're basically urban legends, aren't they?" FINALLY we're finding out more about Yor's job!! They do in fact seem at cross purposes with the spies
[Loid already walking away] "He's such a heartless jerk." I bet you $5 he has already decided to help Franky LMAO
Update from 8 min later: Alright, I owe you $5, he didn't care
"Am I normal?! Oh, thank goodness!" said Yor excitedly, as if that were not a moderately suspicious response to being called normal
Excited for an ep with no double-barreled title. Plot progression!
I truly don't know where this falls on the spectrum of ways that anime will depict black and brown characters LMAO. Like Donovan Desmond, the Shopkeeper has an extremely haunting aura:
"You will be providing protection on this mission." Oooooh, change of pace!
"Is there actually any reason why I should continue my job as a killer?" A question every assassin should ask themselves, I think
"HQ may or may not be trying to cut back on our shady overtime practices." Incredible. I can't believe even the underground spy agency has PTO. I wonder who regulates spy labour law
"If not for this bodyguard job, the three of us could've enjoyed this vacation together." AWWW Yor loves her family so much
"You can say this is a gangster's destiny." [Reba voice] A single mom who works too hard, who loves her kid never stops!
"Papa! We need to hurry up and explore the ship before it sinks!" "It's not going to sink! Stop scaring everyone." The fact the staircase looks distinctly modelled after that one scene from Titanic really sells Anya's point
Loid incapable of framing having fun as anything but a mission ljggkjgj truly he might benefit from a Real Psychologist
"That family's just for camoflauge, right?" "Yes, you're right... Is... that true?" I love Yor slowly admitting that she loves her family for their own sake 💗
As Yor was declaring doing her best, I did worry briefly that someone was going to [redact] Olka. Other anime have been less kind to me than Spy x Family
I love Yor making another mum friend in Olka 💞 Gal pals
Finally saying suspicious things in public has a consequence!!
"It's been a while since we've had dinner without Mama." "Yeah, it's a bit lonely." Hee hee, Loid misses his wife
I love the immediate transformation in Yor's face as soon as Olka/Shaty says she didn't order room service
I don't have much to say but I am really entranced by the assassin vs. assassin + informant goings on!!
"I may not look it, but I'm a married woman, so I'll have to decline." Absolutely loving Yor quietly and efficiently beating these hitmen unconscious as she passes through the cruise ship
"Which is it?! Would normal parents buy their child something in this situation or not?!" Loid is incapable of making a decision without thinking about how it looks in relation to him being a spy. Anxiety king
[In Anya's mind] "Yor! You're an assasin who hates frogs? Let's get a divorce. The Forgers are done." Like father, like anxiety-ridden daughter
"I am a normal father. A good father," said Loid, which is frankly not usually something a good or normal father would say
"Papa, you're not excited at all." Loid defeated by one (1) six-year-old's piercingly accurate psychoanalysis
Loid is facing a true Psychological Battle: The Fitting Room
Anya Ultimate Wingman Award for convincing everyone her mum's battle is actually a circus act
Awwww, Zeb, Fake Husband to Olka, likes her. I hope this is a healthy experience in Yor seeing other fake couples work it out, but I do also think Zeb could mega-die
"As long we people continue to be people, conflict will never end." Alright, Director Doomsday, calm down
"What am I? What am I doing this for?" [B Eilish voice] What was I made foooooor?
"Does she hate me? Or is she just going through a rebellious phase?" Loid whenever one of the Forger girls looks upset: THIS MUST BE MY FAULT SOMEHOW
A hasty and confident NO to Assassin Sniff's whole vibes
We interrupt this program to think about how cute Loid and Anya are!! I love Loid entertaining Anya and also supporting her while he thinks she's missing Yor
"Nice, Mr. Husband!" Oh good, we love a bulletproof vest for Zeb!
Truly a wild juxtaposition of Forger Family Fireworks Night:
"This might be a bit late to ask, but would you consider just peacefully going home?" I love you, Compassionate Combat
I'm having a hard time believing all this will happen without Loid eventually noticing; the fireworks are long gone. I actually do hope Loid crashes her battle, Director Doomsday is out cold
"I'm doing this to support my family.... wait. I guess I am also doing this for money. But... no, I make enough to survive now. I'm hunting down bad guys for my country! For my country? Have I always been so righteous? What am I doing this for?" Poor Yor, this is like the worst possible time for an existential crisis
YOR AND LOID BOTH BEING MOTIVATED BY THEIR DESIRE FOR OTHERS TO LIVE A PEACEFUL LIFE 😭💘😭💘😭💘😭💘
[In Yor's flashback] "Be it for someone else, or for a specific reason, having to endure a merciless job... That's something to be very proud of." I'm sure Loid will acknowledge me. He'll forgive me. I like to think so too, Yor!!
Never mind to Loid helping Yor out, he is busy disarming a bomb threatening to sink them. This truly is the Titanic LMAO
LGLHGLGJHGLJHG Anya accidentally tripping the assassins so they shoot each other. Like mother, like daughter 💖
"You'll be able to enjoy the symphony of agonized screams and roars coming through the wiretaps on this ship." I can't wait for Loid to sink this guy with his own clock-bomb
Update from 30 seconds later: See? Self-owned and sunk
Awwwww Yor really does deserve the baby hug after the day she's had:
"I pray that, someday, you and your family will be able to find true peace." OLKAAAA
"I know it was an emergency, but I ended up casting my family aside again." Loid and Yor having the same crisis about whether to prioritize their family or their jobs 🥺🥺🥺
Loid's blush at Yor catching him skipping as he continues to skip over in her direction. Hee hee
"I hope peaceful days like this will continue forever." ME TOO, YOR!
Get you a mum who would secretly beat up sharks for you ❤️🩹
Setting aside how fun snorkeling is, absolutely terrible idea to go into the ocean with an open wound OMG
Loid carrying his whole family is the cutest thing I've ever seen, 10 bajilion/10zo; perfect:
[Internally] "You did a great job." Loid is in loooooove
"I can never tell if he's actually clever, or clumsy." Me either, Handler
Anya learning about the vacation disparity of rich kids LMAO
"If youre going to create a persona for yourself, you need to be strategic and commit." Not Loid turning this lie lecture into a spy lecture in his mind
"Lying is too much work, so I'll try not to do it anymore." Anya's entire set of adult role models do nothing but lie all the time, she really has no frame of reference for honesty
I do a little bit hate the Becky fantasizing about Loid thing, I have been Cardcaptor Sakura'd too much in life
NOT ANYA SELLING OUT HER MUM FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF BECKY BEING HER RICH SIX-YEAR-OLD STEPMUM OH MY GOD
I feel like they take a lot of liberties in translating "Loid-sama" as "my precious Loid" but hey, he is precious
"Yor's going to get the wrong idea, somehow." Loid has finally registered that this child is obsessed with him and he is only concerned for wife not thinking he's a freak. A good husband above all else
"I really don't understand the children of rich people." Me either, Loid
I need you to see Loid's face as Becky declares that this is his expression of love for Yor:
"Your heart is as vast as the sky, and you're stronger than the earth itself. You're the perfect lady." Correct, Becky! Yor is amazing
"I had some extra souvenirs left after handing them out to everyone else. Do you want them?" LMAO @ the implication being lost on Fiona that he doesn't even think of her enough to warrant her own souvenir
I will say, I really do resonate with the theme of the ep being Loid is Hot and Amazing to Everyone But No One Will Ever Measure Up to Yor in His Eyes
"Maybe you're too nice, and biting and barking don't really suit you." Everyone in the Forger family is too nice for their job, including Bond Forger, Precognitive Puppy
Awwww Bond trying to help out all the humans with his visions
LNKFHKFHKJFH Loid really just got reprimanded by his dog
"And he went into save [Daisy the puppy]? What an impressive dog!" I love the Spy Dad-Psychic Puppy tag-team ❤️
[Internally] "I am a cool-headed spy. I cannot let my emotions show." Loid remains deadpan through SO many things but his dog looking a little funny while wet is his limit. What a man!
"Don't push yourself too hard. There's someone waiting back home who would be sad if you died." 1) V sweet, dad first, hero second. And 2) This is the second time Loid has directly spoken to his life situation with a simultaneous thinly-veined dog metaphor
WAHHHHHHH Loid and Bond's heroics being acknowledged by Anya giving them little paper Stellas:
Yor immediately joining in and congratulating them for their hard work on their walk!!! I LOVE ONE (1) SPY X FAMILY 😭😭😭😭😭 IT'S A NICE SHOW
