Goooood Anya's cuteness is too much for my heart argghh
Twilight is really cool now waiting for assassin.
Their relationship is so cute bro I love it, they did the manga justice for sure.
I've only known Anya for about 2 minutes but, if anyone OR anything harms a hair on her head I will isekai myself in to the screen and burn the world down (JK JK)

Incredible
Nothing else to say
This episode brought back my love for SpyXFamily and my enjoyment of anime.
I’m confident that it will only get better.
In Wit/Cloverworks we trust.

I'm so happy that this anime is beginning to air. The animation is pretty good and after reading the manga it was exciting seeing this story getting adapted. Anya is so adorable!

Looks like it's the usual "cute daughter/father" anime of the season, which is quite disappointing because the loli doing cute things will be the main focus of the series. The world-building sucks - sure a spy organization wouldn't provide a genius child instead the MC needs to "save" one themselves to force some kind of bond. Just another little girl being cute anime where everything else is very poorly written.

IT'S FINALLY OUT!
I was really looking forward to this anime, the manga is great and I wanted to see how they adapted it. Very good 1st chapter, Loid is great and Anya is very funny and adorable. This is going to be good. In the next one YOR is going to appear!!!. And the ending is really good.

A solid first episode, well done WIT and Clover with the adaptation. Honestly happy that WIT is mostly on it cause it’s looking really amazing and beautiful already, they never disappoint when it comes to clean and crisp animation and background settings. Anyways watching this episode literally gave me the same feels as when I read the first chapter of the manga about a year and a bit ago. It packed so much into it like the first chapter but it went by so quickly too. Anya is just as adorable as she is in the manga and Loid is just as handsome and cool as well. Like it’s been stated for the manga, Spy X Family is a perfect mess of a series. It has a little bit of everything in it and just works so good. The thing that I like the most though about it besides the amazing characters is how wholesome it is and I’m so glad they already have this aspect of Spy X Family already showing in the first episode with the bond forming between our cutie pie Anya and her dad Loid. I can’t wait to watch more and also we are getting some bangers with the ost, seriously the ED is vibes, I love it

Hahah a story of a perfect spy slowing down his life for the sake of his "family", starting with Anya. I dig this concept

The animation during the action scenes were so smooth too, wouldn't expect any less from Wit

Having some cars resembling GAZ Chaika and the older model of Wartburg was a nice touch...but those plastic bags for trash outside of the orphanage don't look appropriate.
There was one newer model of Wartburg which also doesn't fit (its grill resembles the one from the 80s model).
The peanuts package looked too modern to me (maybe I an mistaken thou).
Widley accessible colour TV in the 60s, in a supposed alt history version of East Germany?
Stopped counting anachronisms at certain point...

It's a silly little show which parodies tons of spy tropes, I had a lot of fun with this episode.

It's here, finally.... Seven days of waiting took a toll on me. Loid is worth simping as ever. Anya is adorable as ever. What more can I ask?

I feel a bit off with the pacing however. But I do understand that it's necessary to have the first episode with a great punch, showing the promised identities of a show. And I think they've done it well enough. I also expect the pacing to tone down a bit from here on.

Man this was such a good series premiere, I am so invested in this show.

I loved the darker aspects of the show, with Twilight, who grew up early on in a battlefield, lacking any human connection and feeling lost and abandoned in the world, but abandoned/suppressed these past memories, adopting the persona of Twilight, the spy who does everything he can to maintain peace in the world. From that brief character backstory it's clear Twilight has some unresolved childhood trauma from lacking someone who loved him, and it seems this Twilight identity in a sense serves as a way to avoid confronting that past self.

Although, now that Twilight's new mission requires him to adopt this father persona, it's looking like Twilight (now Loid Forger) is going to be confronting some of these past issues, and developing real connections with someone as he raises Anya, rather than just being this empty person who lives life on his own.

Touching on Anya, its clear she relates heavily with Twilight, as someone who was never really given love and care throughout her childhood, just being treated as a lab experiment (given that she's a telepath) who must dedicate their existence for the grand goal of maintaining world peace. Anya is clearly deprived of an emotional connection, and it completely explains why she became so attached to Twilight, someone who (even if he doesn't admit it) has become attached to her. And luckily, it's looking like Twilight is now willing to adopt the role of a father and care for Anya, and this dynamic is seeming to soften Twilight's previously cold heart.

There was also a bunch of cute moments during this episode, and I especially loved the scenes where Anya and Loid reunited, with Anya waiting for him rather than going to the police station, it really fermented the father-daughter relationship they are going to have; I loved the ending scene where Loid lifted up Anya in delight, feeling genuinely proud of Anya for passing the entrance exams, and having a brief moment of realization that Anya is softening him emotionally.

Also, man was the animation and art style beautiful, especially that one combat sequence where Loid was beating up those invaders, the animation was just so fluid. Also, I love the comedy bits here two, especially that one moment where Anya, by messing with Loid's spy gadgets, was just taunting Loid's enemies. And man, was the spy-esque jazz music just another cherry on top for my enjoyment of today's episode.

Right from the start it's interesting as hell if you're not watching this you're probably missing out for sure

The VA cast is great in all honesty nothing compares to it from Loid to Anya it's one hell of a cast and Yor in the next episode probably she's what I'm waiting for

What a cutie for sure I know Anya is going to be the main star of this show, Damn I like the action and the comedic moments of this show it really makes it interesting rather than just the full action plot and Loid is not the person you mess with in person.

dunno what you mean it was 1/1 the same scenes as the manga its a perfect adaptation in this moment


I see you misinterpret the meaning of being rushed. Rushed means being filled with more content than the ideal amount which was the case with this episode. Yes it's a 1-1 with the Manga. But the pacing of the 'story' feels rushed. As someone already mentioned in a reply to my previous post, this is problem particular to this episode because the first chapter in the Manga has more pages than other chapters. Hopefully, it would get better.
