| I would've given it a 4 instead of 5 if Loid didn't break that table and that Headmaster didn't get punched. But it was satisfying and also the right thing to do, so a 5/5 from me. |
| Please watch Sword Art Online Progressive, it's the peak of SAO. |
 MVP this episode. Such elegance. |

| The best episode so far! It was so intense and I genuinely felt nervous for this family as they tried their hardest, and actual hardest to get into this school. Some things that are true with every episode so I want to get out of the way first are, the music choices were very good, the reactions and the camera helped add onto the suspense and helped bring out a lot of emotion and feeling in the characters and the dialogue felt unique compared to other anime yet natural. What this episode has to offer in specific though is how well the pacing was, there wasn't a second in the episode where I just wanted to skip it at all, it felt so natural and intense, every moment to moment. Even though these characters aren't the most well written and most ambitious, the first few episodes did a very good job making me care for these characters so that when this episode came out, you cared much more about this family getting into this school. Anya wants to keep her family together so she wants to get into this school, Yor genuinely feels something for Loid and wants to keep this family dynamic going for as long as it can so that's why she wants to get into this school and Loid wants to finish his mission. I also like they didn't go the cheap route and have the characters win so easily, they actually had a very hard time going into this school which is a pretty good payoff to show how hard it really is to get into this school and makes me care a lot more about them actually doing it. I enjoyed this episode very much. |

| At first I thought 'Man, for a guy that preaches about elegance you sure don't display it yourself', but at the end of the episode I was pleasantly surprised. That was very elegant indeed |

merlin2v said: Vinsmoke07 said: So there is a moment here where Anya mentions a mission while crying on her father's lap at the end of the episode. I would so love to brush it off but its becoming increasingly obvious that Twilight is not as sharp as he seems... Yah... The fact that he is not aware of his wife being able to do combat moves is... something. I assumed that Anya was made aware of the mission(but not the true purpose) or the dialog took place in her head? idk Hello! Yeah I also got that the mission part was in her head. From the Muse Asia sub, the "or the mission will fail" was italicized, and the audio was louder. The other part of her sentence "I have to go to school" was what she only said. The audio was also lower because her voice got muffled leaning on Loid's lap. |
| "E-Ele-Elelelele-Elrerlelrlelrelrlerle...Elegance!" - Henderson from the Muse Asia sub 😆 That scene of Yor letting Loid carry Anya was very cute, then the action OST played with Yor immobilizing the cow, very cool. The other cows moving back lol TT I was nervous with them during the interview! Teared up when Anya gave Loid/Yor a perfect score, then really cried when Anya cried. Cried more when Loid stood up to that very rude headmaster. Teared up again when Anya apologized to Loid for not being good at the interview. I thought that we would be able to know that results at the end like how the 1st episode went haha. What's with next week's preview - it looks like some parts are from Anya's dreams |
| I wish people would stop throwing the word "masterpiece" around so lightly. It's such a substantial term that should be reserved only for what are the truly great works of art. But yeah,  Masterpiece. |

Shinuki_n_Reborn said: Beexi said: There was a lot of CG crowd in this episode mmmmm can’t be helped . The anya moment crying moment really break my heart and how can we not forget about the “Elegance punch.” There were many inconsistencies in character designs , I think the production was really tight . Moreover the adaptation doesn’t trying to do anything different or elevating the source material but they are just taking conservative approach. The 2 split cours makes sense due to production problems the quality literally not as good as EP 1 it’s just going down . Overall elegance episode had fun and voice actors did a great job in conveying good dialogues There's literally no inconsistency in the character designs (long distance shots aren't inconsistency) neither any production problems, and only from the snippet for the next episode you can see the smooth animation, so i don't know what you're smoking kkkk Neither any production problems ??? Are you dumb ? For first episode they had only 2 animation directors and as for this 4th episode they were having 5 animation directors which ended up needing more corrections. They literally divided the first season in core due to tight production schedule you shitheel first understand that , the split cour is always done due to tight production problems for your common sense . The CG crowds were awful keep your eyes open and check it out . The character running were static asf and as for the character design it wasn’t even that far to say it’s a long distance shots 🤦♂️ everytime I see loid the character face model keeps changing in every frame with lot of blurry lines, only close up shots were looking good as usual . |

| How did this school even operate with its tight surveillance from the start of the interview they're not even interviewed at the moment just walking around and instantly fails just like that I'm not even surprised they managed these tests with breeze even Anya and Loid look like they saw a ghost in Yor, The tension really is near even Loid's analogy can't compare Everyone in the Forger family is tensed up, Anya almost ratted his "father" as well good thing it was just a misunderstanding, This dude honestly has a punchable face his past is actually deserved, It would've been better if Loid punched the shit out of this guy but honestly they wouldn't stand a chance against the backlash, But here I say I don't care if it's overused or someone made this joke already Henry's punch is elegant. |

| Dawg I hope everyone realizes by now that this series is beyond greatness, I've never had this much fun |

| ELEGANNNNNNNNNNNNNNCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And that's all i have to say |
 |
GOD, Loid and Yor are scary with there Ready to Kill Eyes. |
 |
| I went from uncontrollably laughing to malding to crying this episode. This school is fucking wild man, but I already love Henderson, what a chad. Anya almost slipping up with Loid being a spy killed me lmao, that was hilarious. In conclusion, this episode was very E L E G A N T |
 |
| That was expected from a child tbf.. I mean anya seems a bit above most children with memory so I"m sure she saw something happen to her real mom. But damn this was just too great. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Woah another nicely done episode coming from spyxfamily. Mixing bag of feeling when the interview even already began the moment the entered the first gate. As expected nothing can beat Twilight great preparation to even preparing three pairs of clothes under his examining case. Then Yor action against the rampaging cow. Then shitty housemaster which surely so dang annoying till the deepbone, until he's did that, hurting my Aniaa! One elegance punch on his cartoonish face actually quite not enough. Still, lets pray for Ania to pass the interview test and began her school lifes! |

| that fucking old man who make anya crying deserved a big punch from saitama !!! |
FROM WHERE BASTARD MAKES ANYA CRY!!!??? |
| The elegance's and spare clothes joke was overused and not funny. But other than that it's still a very enjoyable episode. |
 |
| The long week wait for this episode was worth it, as it was rather awesome. =) Eden Academy definitely lived up to its reputation of being a tough school for students to get in, as the faculty were failing some families for the way they were walking down in the school grounds. As for the Forgers, they took it in their stride, from rescuing a chubby student from a stinking gutter that he was stuck in, to Yor easily stopping a raging cow in its tracks. Good thing the Forgers packed in many outfits, a back-up for the back-up, just in case! XD Eventually, the interviews got underway and the pressure was pretty tough on all of them. Anya's expressions and responses to the questions were adorable as usual, but it wasn't impressing one teacher, Mr Swan. This jealous sack of crap was pretty much venomous towards the Forgers and his reply to Yor about her cooking skills would leave a bad taste in many viewer's mouths. It's no wonder his wife was divorcing him. Sadly, he went way too far and made poor Anya cry, which made Loid snap. He barely contained his senses and shattered the table, killing a mosquito in the process, before he took Yor and Anya out of the room, but not before parting way with some harsh words himself. The school headmaster, Henderson, then took it upon himself to punish Swan for his attitude by punching him square in the face. Holy moly, that punch was VERY satisfying. Henderson deserves respect for that move to put Swan in his place. Very "elegant" indeed, one would say! ;) |
| DONT MAKE ANYA CRY! I WOULD PUNCH THIS FATSO THORUGH MY SCREEN! |

| This was hands down the best episode till now. I laughed heartily like a million times in this episode, this was just perfect, thoroughly deserves 10/10. The housemaster and his elegance made up for so many hilarious moments, I was literally laughing out loud. We got one more Yor badass moment, loved it and after she's done being badass, seeing her embarassed is so fun lol. But then I think Anya can hear the thoughts of animals too and bro that's like sooo amazing, can't wait when Yor and Loid find out about her ability. That arrogant housemaster is the second person after bitch/slut in Tate no Yuusha that has made me so furious, they did a good job in making him as unlikable as possible. He deserved that elegant punch. That reminds me Loid kind of had a badass moment too, not everyone has balls big enough to break a coffee table in front of the interviewers of their daughter, especially considering that it is very crucial that Anya gets in or his mission will fail which will be the start of war and well war is bad. When Anya said she loved both of her parents very much etc., that was so adorable and sweet, that was just sweetness overload, I wish these 3 always stay together and become a real family. It got kind of emotional after that real mother question, Anya cri I cri but seriously the tear was building up but believe me I controlled myself, I swear I didn't cry. That scene made me curious as to what happened with Anya's real parents, looking forward to Anya's full backstory. 11/10 man. I love this show so much, can't wait to watch the next episode. Spy x Family is the AOTS in my books and a very strong contender for AOTY. |

 The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama. Feeling half happy, half sad. Kawaii waifus and precious best girls <3333 |
| When Loid saw Anya crying and mentally reminded himself to be cool that brought me back to episode 1 when he said he hates seeing children crying. Man, this series hits all the right spots. Anya says that she loves both her mother and father so much because they are so fun was such a wholesome moment. Loid and Yor truly are fun... and elegant! |
| Lmao headmaster is more dedicated to screen the father rather than the student. Yor stopping the herd was so hilarious but at the same time cool and... ELEGANT! |
   |
| That fatass who made Anya cry should go to hell!!! Good thing Housemaster punch him in the face! BWAHAHAH! 5/5. omg this is now MAL Ranked#2 !?!? |

Aroo-nyan said: The elegance's and spare clothes joke was overused and not funny. But other than that it's still a very enjoyable episode. Ah yes thank you your comment sums up pretty much what I think about this ep |
| Okay, I don't want to say much, let the score do the talking. I'm really looking forward to the next episode. |
 |
| Emotional and comedic episode, especially about Anya mom backstory and the random appearance of farm animals, and its confirm that Anya can understand animals. Yori pressure points make her super overpowered. Elegant headmaster punch was as satisfying, compared to Luffy knocking out a Celestial Dragon. I wonder what friends Anya will make and hopefully more animal interactions? |
