Fiona and Loid teaming up for this underground tennis tournament isn't even fair lol, they're destroying the competition with ease. Of course, that's not gonna be the case when up against the children of the guy hosting the tournament, but even with all of the underhanded tactics they're using to cheat, our spy duo seems to be holding it down pretty well.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

That was a great episode, it didn't even feel like 20 min. Honestly the humor has been really great this season, even if it is more SOL focused I still love it. Nightfall's VA is so perfect for her. Also, the animation and direction during the tennis match was awesome!!

haha, Loid x Fiona? I can see how some would ship that. They have a pretty deep groove (in Fiona's mind, anyway). Yor's jealousy isn't completely self-interest anymore, and it brings a little tension into the not-relationship that Anya is quick to dispel. I like how all this drama is keeping the series fresh, but I think we need a Yor arc soon.

I´m really not into this whole "Fiona in love with Loid side story". What an annoying character with constantly talking about how she is in love with him. Fair enough, having a crush on someone is natural and it could have even enrich the story, but why does it suddenly feel like they are using it as a filler? frustrating

It was good, although now I feel a little sad for Nightfall, it seems that she really loves Twilight but he doesn't reciprocate her, (nor does it seem that he will).

Having read the related manga chapters, I was looking forward to this episode and I was not disappointed! The match is so entertaining, packed with action while being hilarious at the same time! And I'm not really into sports, but I loved both this and the dodgeball episode with Anya and her school mates! I really like Nightfall too and I can't blame her: I'm falling for Twilight too now! 😍 But I like Yor even more 😛

As I expected, not even the top tier quality of this adaptation was enough to make me enjoy the tennis chapters. I also find Nightfall quite dull, so that definitely doesn't help. I suspect some will enjoy this, but I just can't get into it. Good thing these are the only chapters I found boring.

It's certainly fitting to see an underground tennis tournament that throws normal rules into a nearby dustbin and cheating to be the norm here. Either way, Loid and Fiona don their disguises as a married couple (Nice one, Fiona! XD) and called themselves Phony of all names!

Despite the opposition doing what they can to win, Loid and Fiona were very strong. However, they now have a tough battle on their hands against the son and daughter of the event organiser in the finals, where despite trying to gas the changing room earlier, the pair are holding on well, although the jet and whip rackets used by their opponents did cause issues at first.

The animation quality for the tennis matches so far look great and I hope they can deliver more of those moments in the next episode as the final match gets more intense, both in a cheating and non-cheating sense, of course. =P

Man, I didn't think they would break up the underground tennis tournament into 2 episodes, this was over before I knew it! I said this in the last episode and I'll say it again, without Fiona's inner monologue I would've thought that she didn't like, let alone love, Loid, heck even Loid thought she was staring daggers at him while they were waiting in the room before the final match. I do wonder what Yor will do if she does senses that Fiona likes him next time they're all together.

Not long after Fiona’s introduction we’re already entering an arc with her, this time it’s a tennis tournament to win a painting that has a Nazi leader’s secret files, very cool lol. It was really fun watching Fiona and Loid destroy the competition, including retired pros and beefed up steroid bros lol. Of course Fiona is using this opportunity to win Loid’s heart, loved her little imaginations once again, and her stern expression as she thinks “I love you” over and over is still hilarious.

And after having to survive a gas room that would hamper their performance, the two have to go up against the host’s kids who are using really cool modified tennis rackets, I’d like to see an anime like this with over the top tennis stuff lol, which might already exists and I just don’t know about it. After taking a beating and then dishing out a beating, now the duo has to deal with a transforming court, this oughta be intense. I also enjoyed the cuts to Anya and Yor in this one, it was nice of Anya to try and make Yor feel better about the Fiona situation.

In this Underground Tennis, there is no such thing as fair-play. It's insane! Not my favorite kind of episode, but I want Loid and Fiona to beat those spoiled brothers so bad >__> Their mentality is like "Yeah, we'll win for sure. And Daddy will award us with our yacht later" yeah, super spoiled!

Seems like things are getting more tense between Yor and Nightfall.
That was also one hell of an animation for a tennis game.
They really don't miss out on being able to add great animation to things.

Fiona being an literal stalker lmao, she be spying on Loid all the time.

Fiona & Loid get a mission to steal an painting but in order to do that they need to compete in an Tennis match because if you win that then you can choose something from the owners valuable collection.

Fiona & Loid smashed through all the matches without any problems, even those bulky guys lmao and now they reached the final where the children of the boss or something are playing but they're playing falsely but that's allowed or something, they even went so far to put traps in the floors lol, anyhow the match starts and Loid & Fiona loses the first match but they quickly come back after annihilating them, now they are ahead but the cliffhanger got dropped there so i hope they'll win the match.

Funny to see all those animations of Fiona when she played those tennis matches with Loid.

Anya trying to learn Tennis was cute as well, even Bond wanted to play tennis but Yor was spacing out and Anya be like "Don't worry, mother", that was cute.

Yor still worrying about Fiona from a mothers perspective, totally understandable but you'll do great Yor.

& so,
Hachiman finally managed to play together one by one with the 3 girls in his harem huh!!!

(Technically, he played Pong with Iroha at one point beforehand!!!)

& all of them are coincidentally in handicaps too!!!

(Yukino being tired, Yui being injured & now Iroha with traps all over the place!!!)

I wonder how Yukino & Hachiman trained on tennis together...

Yukino was a monster if they teamed up together!!!

So with all these traps,

Will Iroha ended up getting injured like Yui was???


Maybe Iroha should try her trick that she tried to use to distract Hachiman but she's just too busy imagining doubles of life on Hachiman in another universe. Can't wait for Yor to channel her inner Yukino against Nightfall.


Iroha already did that while theyre playing pong & guess what happened???
I doubt its gonna work on him if she did that again!!!

Yukino is literally a monster in tennis be it in high school or being a housewife!!!
Poor poor Iroha!!!

This tennis arc is so good, if the author ever decided to make an anime about an anything goes sports tournament, I'd definitely tune into that too. Fiona's inner simp for twilight and outer stoicness had me all smiles this episode too. I like that gag!

I don't know what's more hilarious, the fact that Fiona is sooo down bad or how oblivious/dense Loid is toward her. 😆 Then again I can't blame Loid for not noticing her feelings, she's pretty much impossible to read. A master of keeping a poker face.

The jet-powered racket and the whip racket = awesome concepts! 🤯 It would be cool if Mario Tennis had those!

Kinda funny that they introduced a whole new female character before giving Yor any significant screentime. I think Nightfall has received more character development in two episodes than Yor has in almost two seasons.

Did Fiona just say that out loud? Is this a tennis court confession?

The best line of the series so far belongs to Fiona: "I'm the one who should make him bouncy." How obscene!

I did not care for the tennis tournament in the manga. I felt it was just filler to slow down the main plot. And the tennis arc just went on and on and on... But the anime has done it well, and the underground tournament is entertaining. I hope we get more of Fiona/Nightfall in the future.

noooooooo not a cliffhanger aaaaaaaaaaaaaa

this episode was extremely well done. felt like a 5 min episode.

nightfall's inner thoughts are funny as heck.

not gonna lie if yor wasn't there, nightfall would have been the next best suitable wife for loid but with yor present now, nightfall doesn't have a chance even though she's great and i'm kinda starting to like her.

5/5 episode. can't wait to watch next ep!

The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.

I wish yor got more time in the show like this as an actual character. As an assassin, she would fuck s l a p at tennis. It really feels like all the tension about her trying to hide her identity is just non existent. How amazing would it be for her to have to join cause she played tennis in school or whatever, and he couldnt find a partner cause his communication lines were sabotaged for whatever reason because yor's brother was catching on down the communication line, so now he has to settle with his only option. and he would have done all this planning to try and carry the whole game and pick up the slack; in planning neglected his practice for the actual game. and as he felt powerless, yor pretty much single handedly carries the game. it really just feels like all the groundwork done for the first season is melted away. yor just isnt a character anymore :c and its a shame, the family dynamic of trying to hide their identities is totally sabotaged. like how AWESOME would it be, if when they through more moments like these slowly found out eachothers identity, they were both finally able to breath and share eachothers secret together, which would inevitably bring them close together in an honest way. Twilight now finally feeling a genuine connection with another human being, he never would have expected to find someone who shared such a deep secret as he did, and relates to her more than anyone in this moment of realization. and that "weakness," actually let twilights identity somewhat fumble so her brother caught on. Like theres so much there, and I can feel that pay off just isnt coming. So sad

Another episode with Fiona, another 10/10 episode. I like this pattern.

Best girl aside, this was just as fantastic as last weeks episode. I love the degasses, I love the entire concept of an entire UNDERGROUND Tennis tournament. Complete with a tournament with lovable and comedic characters, bright and vibrant colours, betting, sabotage, cheap tricks, cool-as-hell gadgets and two cool as hell Spies????
This. Is. SPECTACULAR.

My God this is such a huge step-up from the rather average episodes until now. Fiona really saved the plot, she's carrying literally all of it. I wanna ramble on for hours how good this is, but let's just say I'm STOKED for the next mission.

This episode just ended out of nowhere! I was expecting this little tennis arc to last only one episode, but we're going to get at least one more to finish it off; which is totally fine because I'm liking what we're getting.

On a side note, you know the meme of how parents always seem to walk in at the worst possible time while watching anime? Well I thought that by watching something super family-friendly like Spy X FAMILY, I'd be totally safe. And yet somehow my mom walks in at one of the moments where this nightfall chick be f*cking moaning
