Spy X Family part 2

 The Forger family is back in action as Operation Strix continues.



And the family gets a new member this season!

As a reward for obtaining her Stellar, Anya is allowed a pet dog.  But at the dog adoption event, she sneaks out and is caught by some terrorists Loid is chasing.  She escapes with a big white dog with precognitive powers, which she can pick up with her telepathy.  Yor saves her from them, but they see a vision of Loid dying in a bomb attack, and Anya races off to prevent this from happening.  As Loid manages to capture the ringleader by masquerading as it's target, his Handler makes it happen Anya can adopt the big dog.



The mid-term exams are on the horizon though, and Anya, with the help of Yuro for one, studies hard.  But Loid sneaks in to try and bump her grades, discovering an amateur spy called daybreak forging the Desmond grades.  He restores them, but also discovers that Anya, albeit barely, passed the exams on herself and leaves the grades as such as they are.

Anja joins Loid for a trip to his work on a school assignment, which leads due to her interpretations of his thoughts that he has to be summoned to school.  They think he is engaged in frauduleus activities as a result, so he has to straighten that out.

But the agency sends in another spy, Fiona Frost aka Nightfall, to assist Loid on his next mission.  She goes to check out Yor though however, as she is incredibly jealous and ambitious.  She was foreseen to become Loid's wife in Operation Strix, and while as cold as her name implies, struggles with the fact he chose Yor, being in love with him herself.

In order to get a vital piece hidden in a painting, Nightfall and Twilight have to go on a mission together, playing in an underground tennis tournament, the Campbelldon.  They overcome various opponents, and face off the ruling champions, Campbell's siblings, in the finale.  Despite several dirty tricks, they manage to defeat them and win the tournament, but the code on the painting turned out something less spectacular.  Nightfall challenges Yor to tennis to prove she is the better wife, but is severly defeated.  Yet Yor looks down as Loid doesn`t praise her win...



Feeling depressed, Yor goes binge drinking, confessing to Loid.  But in a drunken bout, she floors him as he can't follow her feelings anymore.  But during the Eden College's Social Gathering event, Loid finally comes face to face with chairman Desmond, allowing him to get a better idea to form a plan...

But that will be for the second season, which I hope comes as soon as possible!  This continues to be very loveable anime series, with strong characters and heaps of fun, really living up to the hype of when it was finally announced.
