I like the fact that Borf , despite it's clairvoyance, is still very much a dog that has no idea what to do with any of that information beyond just following Anya's lead. A good boy

Borf and Anya having powers that are typically associated with smart characters. It makes them fun since they're both completely incapable of using those powers effectively because they're a kid and a dog.

Anya is non-conventionally smart-- she's extremely cunning for her age, but she's also a five or four year old pretending to be six who is exactly as smart as a kid doing that would be

Anya tries to use dog divination and figure out whether to cut the red wire or the green wire, only to realize that dogs are colorblind.

Yeah it was brought up a while ago, but I'm guessing that Yor doesn't get much to do because showing a lead character routinely merking people (many of whom, for all we know, might have just got on the wrong side of the Ostanian deep state) might eventually make her less sympathetic. This does have the side effect that the only thing Yor is "allowed" to do in the meantime is to Punch Really Hard, which is great to watch but doesn't do a great job at making her stand out, since Loid can Punch Okay and also does a shitload of crazy stunts. We'll eventually get a very good Yor-centric arc, but as mentioned before that'd be next season at the earliest unless they skip a ton of content.

Yor rules as the unstoppable momma bear Anya can call on for help with stopping the bad guys but otherwise is just a doting family woman.

Shinji2015 posted:I wonder if the mangaka regrets making Yor an assassin Maybe, but I doubt it because the central gag is that she has to have a secret to hide from everybody and he probably didn't want to double-dip into the "superpowers" well (even if he did with the dog eventually). So in the end you need something that
and "assassin" fits the bill pretty perfectly. Outside of that the job pool gets pretty limited. I guess Yor could have been the secret policeman instead of Yuri? But then, ew, cop. Though you're right, ultimately that probably does prevent her from doing more on-screen work, since if she is dropping bodies constantly you do risk her looking like a villain. At the end of the day though the story is ultimately more about Loid's mission (and therefore Anya's mission to maintain her family) so Yor... well, I don't want to say "matters less" because that sounds bad, but... I guess let's say she's not as integral to the real plot as they are. TwoPair fucked around with this message at 04:47 on Oct 11, 2022 |

When they focused on the ketchup, I thought she was going to make one of the wires red and then just get very lucky it was the right one.
