I am of the opinion that Loid should kiss Yor.

I have the exact opposite opinion, and I think, that Yor, should kiss Loid.

I feel like the series has mostly forgotten that Yor is a hitwoman and not just a strong girl. I wish we saw more of her work and had opportunties for her and Loid to interact while "on the job" unknowingly.

I get why you don't really want to do that to some extent. Having her out killing potentially innocent people kinda undermines how likable she could be, but it's also not taking her character premise seriously.

Twilight and Thorn Princess are tasked with taking out the other, have to do so without attracting the attention of their spouse who is coincidentally always also there.

Then they kiss.

It is kind of funny how this is about the same time in the manga where manga readers also have the same points and criticisms word for word

It's similar to how Chainsaw Man readers are being reminded by the anime onlies how they used to hate Kobeni.

Twilight doesn't wear a special costume when he works for Operation Strix, but Yor does wear a Thorn Princess outfit so things would be weird with Yor because she's clearly going to freak out at Loid seeing her in her assassin getup.

I also want to applaud the Yor sequence animators, they did a good job and a kudos to the storyboard artist as well..

Never read the manga, but the lack of anime Yor action is definitely conspicuous so far. I just kind of figured showing a bunch of ruthless murdering would be kind of discordant with the rest of the show so maybe that's why it's not happening

But it's pretty funny when we get her internal monologue and it's something like 'I must be good at this domestic task to please my family...so I can keep killing' :stare:

I think, going by the rate of adaptation and how many episodes are left, that Yor's real career will be featured as a spotlight arc of the first cour of a hypothetical Season 2.

I feel like this is the natural end point for the story and it's more of "when will it happen" than "if"

Is the Spy Family manga done or ongoing? These days it feels less like people get impatient for the good stuff to start because a loy more adaptations are coming out for finished series and more impatient that we have to wait literal years between seasons thanks to the immense workload the studios are dealing with.

There's probably enough material in the existing manga for three more cours at least. They just released issue 70 last Sunday.

It always is. I try not to post too much in anime threads after reading manga--I try not to post that kinda nonsense, but I'd also not put myself in the position where it might happen

Honestly, I do like the juxtaposition of Cute Family Comedy against what is essentially a huge power keg situation if you really think things to their natural conclusion.

We saw that during the Bond arc when Bond had the vision of the Minister and Loid getting killed, sparking an international war.

the recurring theme that the adults know how awful war is, and are trying to protect the kids from that knowledge is solid, and works with how the manga is normally really light toned, with occasional glimpses of really dark stuff

The pawsting business is tough work.
Regarding her motivations, I think the thing about Yor a lot of people forget is that she's really, really dumb. Kind-hearted, incredibly physically capable, probably wouldn't have a job at City Hall if her real employers didn't need to give her a cover identity.

Yor is a mom.

She sees Anya forgot her gym clothes and immediately thinks shes going to turn into a gangster.

That's what moms do.
