Hello folks, and welcome back to Wrong Every Time. Today I\u2019m eager to dive back into Spy x Family, wherein we\u2019ve most recently commenced the Grand Forger Cruise Ship Operation, involving Yor protecting the wife and child of a recently deceased crime lord while Loid learns to relax for once in his fuckin\u2019 life. And so far, it unfortunately seems like neither of their missions are proceeding smoothly; Yor has just accidentally clued the entire ship\u2019s worth of assassins into the assumed identity of their target, while Loid is, well, still Loiding it up in his usual, painfully self-reflective fashion.<\/span><\/p>\n

Personally, I\u2019m just delighted to see a specifically Yor-focused extended arc, particularly since this mission is clearly prompting her to reflect on the motivation and continued relevance of her Thorn Princess persona. Having taken on this role in order to provide for her brother, she is now beginning to question whether it\u2019s still a necessary part of her life, or if it\u2019s simply a crutch preventing her from discovering her own purpose. That\u2019s some satisfyingly weighty personal drama, and though I very much doubt her ultimate conclusions will shift the show\u2019s status quo, I\u2019m happy to see Yor at last getting the sort of layered, conflicting interiority that lends some dramatic heft to Loid, Anya, and even Damien\u2019s stories. Our choices are only meaningful if we\u2019re the ones making them; by shifting Yor from a passive to an active actor, Spy x Family will ultimately make her bond with Loid and Anya that much more impactful, a reflection of the priorities she herself has chosen. Let\u2019s get to it!<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Episode 31<\/b><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We open back with Yor\u2019s city hall coworkers discussing her fancy vacation<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cHaving sausages and beer after work is pretty great too, right?\u201d A slight nod to our not-exactly-East-Germany setting<\/span><\/p>\n

Fraught real-world resonances aside, if you\u2019re going to make a spy-themed comedy in an essentially modern world, divided Berlin is certainly the most relevant template to draw from<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe Fearsome Luxury Cruise Ship\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Hah, I\u2019d forgotten their city is just literally called \u201cBerlint\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Yor at last reveals the fruit of her training as she describes how she personally would attempt an assassination on this target, waiting until the moment they\u2019re to be transferred to another ship, and thus likely most exposed and vulnerable. Obviously a great deal of Yor\u2019s appeal is \u201chow can a pro assassin be this ditzy,\u201d but I do like when they emphasize her competency in ways other than just physical prowess. \u201cHow can I use my assassin training to most efficiently achieve this mundane parental objective\u201d is at least as good of a joke as \u201chow can an assassin be this incompetent\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cMaybe I just want to relax and believe there isn\u2019t an enemy. But this isn\u2019t just my problem anymore.\u201d Olka\u2019s framing could just as easily be applied to Loid or Yor\u2019s situations: can they simply calm down and enjoy being parents to Anya, or is it precisely <\/span>because<\/span><\/i> Anya and all these other children need them that they must commit themselves all the more fully to their secret duties? The question of whether you make your charitable mark on the world on an individual, community-based level or on a structural, societal-based level is essentially an unsolvable one that demands a personal answer, which makes it work perfectly as a continuous thematic ax to grind<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cYou really don\u2019t seem like someone from the underworld.\u201d Doing her work for Yuri\u2019s sake has basically made her assassin duties an extension of her familial ones. Unlike Loid, she didn\u2019t really need to soften her outlook to accommodate for Anya, because she\u2019s always been fusing her seemingly contradictory sides<\/span><\/p>\n

Olka suggests Yor relax with her family on the third day. That sounds like a fine way to force her to make some active choices, deciding whether she prioritizes her family or the job<\/span><\/p>\n

Loid is able to navigate the contradictions of his life because he is essentially always \u201con\u201d – whether he\u2019s at home or on the job, he\u2019s always performing, always putting his spy face forward. In fact, his journey across the show has mostly involved him learning to soften that poise just a tad, but that reorientation is still a steady, consistent Loid. I\u2019ll be interested to see how Yor fares in a similar situation – domestic Yor and professional Yor are two entirely different people, so her resolution might involve finding some common ground across her identities<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Anya is stuffing her face, adopting another moomins-style look as she gorges on the free buffet<\/span><\/p>\n

And Yor\u2019s handler is busy taking out the trash, dispensing with the first assassin in ruthlessly efficient fashion<\/span><\/p>\n

And thus the first body of many is dropped into the bay<\/span><\/p>\n

We swiftly jump to number two, posing as room service. I like the very active direction throughout this sequence – the camera generally follows the trajectory of the combatants\u2019 bullets, darts, and knives, creating a great sense of propulsion and tense implication of consequence<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Yor throws her hairpiece through the dude\u2019s goddamn skull<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThere are open rooms available in 2nd class.\u201d Having their location leaked serves as a natural way to push Yor towards Loid and Anya<\/span><\/p>\n

The target\u2019s alias is \u201cShaty,\u201d which I keep reading as \u201cShawty,\u201d and it\u2019s really fucking with my interpretation of this drama<\/span><\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the assassins gather to plan their approach. And of course, one overeager assassin proposes killing all women with children on board, and is duly assassinated in turn by his fellows. You rarely leave a meeting of assassins with as many individuals as you entered<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Hah, the head assassin is played by Kousuke Toriumi. I\u2019m not always the best at recognizing voices, but the tone of Thunderbolt Fantasy\u2019s Enigmatic Gale is absolutely unmistakable<\/span><\/p>\n

Apparently even this cabal is just one group of the many assassins hunting Olka<\/span><\/p>\n

Yor senses bloodlust in the next lounge, but knows she cannot directly intercept the target or risk causing a commotion. It\u2019s a convenient way to sort of balance her superhuman abilities, limiting her to things she can do without arousing the suspicion of the other passengers. Reminds me of the altogether excellent Shaw Brothers film Dirty Ho, in which Gordon Liu fights off assassins while never dropping his facade of admiring caligraphy and sculpture work<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Hah, great beat of her immediately snapping her focus to the assassin as he looks towards them. Once again, the shot transitions are neatly timed to the beats of the action, allowing us to follow a \u201cbattle\u201d that takes all of half a second to resolve<\/span><\/p>\n

Olka essentially wearing a Hisoka mask makes me all the more suspicious that this arc was in part inspired by Hunter x Hunter\u2019s Dark Continent – that arc literally involves a bunch of assassins hunting Hisoka on a massive cruise ship<\/span><\/p>\n

Sensing this episode\u2019s growing deficiency of good Anya faces, the production then cuts to Anya demanding a keychain, a task fit only for her finest gremlin expressions<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cWould normal parents buy their children something in this situation or not!?\u201d Bless Loid and his perpetual pursuit of normalcy<\/span><\/p>\n

I like how Anya has to use her esper abilities to identify an assassin known as \u201cSickle-and-Chain Barnaby,\u201d who also has a tiger-claw scar across his face and eyes that bug out of his skull. In general a fan of how these highly skilled assassins are all the most obvious assassins you could possibly imagine<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI am a normal father. A good father.\u201d Congratulations on being so normal, Loid<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cYor, you go around having battles!?\u201d Anya must ensure Loid does not discover Yor\u2019s passion for random encounters<\/span><\/p>\n

Anya rightfully scolds Loid for not understanding the first thing about adventures, and simply placating her without embracing the earnest spirit of trying new things. She may not do great at school, but Anya\u2019s quick thinking would actually make her a pretty natural spy<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI pray that you come out looking cool.\u201d \u201cLeave it to me.\u201d My god, they managed to pack an entire episode\u2019s worth of Loid and Anya nonsense into a three minute scene. Incredible work<\/span><\/p>\n

And thus Yor\u2019s next battle commences!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

And Done<\/b><\/p>\n

Hah, what an exciting episode that was! We didn\u2019t really dive into much of the Yor motivation stuff from last time, but that\u2019s no real issue – it\u2019s clear that we\u2019re currently in the meat of the cat-and-mouse phase of this operation, reveling in the immediate thrills of Yor attempting to deflect any and all assassination attempts on her guileless companions. It seems beyond question by now that Endo is pulling from Togashi\u2019s latest arc, and why wouldn\u2019t he? \u201cA cruise ship full of assassins versus one exceptional bodyguard\u201d is an excellent premise, and there\u2019s clearly plenty of room here to also revel in Spy x Family\u2019s own distinctive strengths. Plus, given this episode\u2019s relatively reserved animation, I imagine we\u2019re holding back for some wild visual theatrics up ahead – Yor\u2019s always been the animators\u2019 favorite, and this is our clearest opportunity yet to celebrate the Thorn Princess in her element. I can\u2019t wait!<\/span><\/p>\n
