I'm so out of the loop on anime that it's probably been 15 years since I watched anything new that wasn't a remake or reboot like Berserk or Eva., Somehow I got linked to an article about this show and God dammit if I haven't fallen in love with from episode 1. Now to track down as much of the manga as I can.

I appreciate Loid reading "Dang!" magazine, with an ad for Spy Wars on the back.

I think it's an ad for Dang! on the back of an unflipped issue of the Spy Wars manga.

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

Finally caught the last episode. I never really noticed the scars in the manga, but also the manga seemed to make his mood swings a bit more obvious. I think we can't rule out the possibility that he's being (at least partially) mind controlled himself. It would explain the mood shifts and the extreme security around him, even distancing him from his own family (Loid's own doubts in this episode about being able to perfectly impersonate people would seem like an important context clue in that regard). The mood shifts and noncommittal answers make a lot more sense if you assume that someone else is piloting behind his eyes.

You may not be able to fully understand other people, but some factions may think that controlling them is loads easier.

Edit: Eh, forget the whole thing.

Slightly confused, is this getting another cour? Everything I’ve read says sits a single cour but it had a preview. Is it jumping into another season soon or something?

The rumor is season 3 will be in Fall 2024.

That's just a Japan thing, actually. Pretty much every animal character is voiced by a person. See also Pokémon.

So Bond is just a Psychic-type named "Borf"?

That's also an American thing where animals are voiced by either Frank Welker or Dee Bradley Baker.

Or Alan Tudyk, if it's under the Disney umbrella.
