It would honestly be kind of weird if they had work for their top assassin every week of the year.

Hopefully they adapt the bonus material too and we get the one where Yor has to nurse a gunshot wound to the rear end she got on a job while on a date with Loid.

Theres no way they dont do this one it's too funny.

Yeah that kicked rear end. Also her blank expression when taking the shot, the face of someone calmly solving a problem. Fuckyadad.

One theme for SXF is how secrets and lies are part of life, which is cool. Lie to teachers, obviously lie to cops, even lie to your family so they don't worry.

You absolutely should. The anime is a good adaptation and even expands some things, but the art in the manga is excellent and it's not exactly a long manga.

This reminds me of the "Hellsing is by a Japanese mangaka" vs "But it's set in England my dear" early 2000's discourse. :D

What was that discourse even about? Both of those things are true, but what was either side trying to claim, ultimately?

"discourse" is maybe strong a word, I'm making more of a jokey reference to something Crispin Freeman explained to an audience member who insisted it should be Arucard and not Alucard; which happened largely because as shown in Shirobako it can be a pain to contact the mangaka for clarification which results in oddities like the subtitles being one way (allegedly that's what the director insisted on) and the dub being another way until they were able to get Hirano's input to confirm that it's Alucard and not Arucard so it got corrected later.

Finally got around to checking out the first episode on Hulu and next thing I know I've binged through all of them, and now I'm sad I'm caught up. I'm seriously considering rewatching them all over again.

I was originally planning on trying to be an adult and sleeping tonight

I will always spell it Lloyd because that's how that word works. I can forgive the silent X in the title but anglicizing Lloyd's name is a massive insult to the Welsh dragon. What we have here is another remnant of Japan's lingering empire mindset, where the Japanese writers subconsciously side with Saxon colonizers by ditching the proper Welsh spelling. God, the O is an English pollutant as it is. You know what, gently caress that X. I'm going to pronounce the X out loud from now on. Saxons say Xs out loud or they'd be called "Sa'ons," and Spy Ex Family has clearly chosen a side. I've never been to Wales in my life

I'm pretty it's a real first too. Not a particularly common one, but I'm pretty sure it is actually an Anglicization of Lloyd regardless.

IIRC when the manga was first being translated into English there was some wonkiness with the names but the mangaka eventually explained how they wanted it done.
