Very fun first episode! It's pretty easy to see where story beats will go but the characters seem likable enough to make a fun adventure, the dad's cool and easy to sympathise with, Anya's cute and easy to sympathise with, their dynamic is quite funny.

Seems like the second episode will be fun as well!

I can see where the wholesome vibes come from lol. It is quite touching stuff tbh, but I mean, stuff like this has already existed before from what I know. Still good nonetheless.

I hope to see more of this, it's actually pretty fun here, more fun than what I remember reading. I guess that is the power of anime tho lol.

Yo how tf did it get 9.09 with just what.. almost 3 eps out !!!
It's a gr8 show don't get me wrong.. but it's my first time seeing a show which is currently airing with barely 3 eps out reaching the top 5 highest rated animes


Yeah it's exactly what I wonder too, lmao at the bad guy instantly shooting one of his group just because..
Just watched the first episode.. meh. It gives me weird Lupin III vibes (altho for some reasons lupin is scored so low), and not as good as a full comedy anime. It's a weird mix and wasn't even that funny.
Meanwhile with kaguya-sama I was laughing af

They tried so hard to make the little girl as much as KAWAII as possible but she seems just annoying to me. Also she can read the mind.. seriously bro

If I want wholeness and cuteness, there's a ton-shit of better anime to watch.. you know, slice of life anyone?!

First anime I'm watching in a hot minute... I think I'm already in love.

Perhaps would have liked to have seen the little girls powers be more hinted at rather than immediately revealed, but still, this was fun.

I hope I will get used to Anya's voice. It's more childish than what I'm imagining in the manga which is smoother/thinner (it's kind of hard to tell)

In just the first episode this is simultaneously one of the funniest and cutest shows I have ever watched. Anya is going to make it to my top favorite characters list VERY fast. Love it and love her.

that was charming *and* comedic

"i wanna live in a castle!"

"sure, if there's one to rent. once we're there you've got to study"

"*groaning in disgust*" (her reaction made me laugh. i had to go back and watch it a few more times)

pretty good first episode. 8 or 9/10

the dude is an interesting character. but the girl, she's the star. wow. i wonder if/when/how he'll find out she's psychic (no spoilers please)

lmao that first minute almost made me ragequit the anime but i decided to skip straight to Anya parts since she will probably be my only interest in this anime (if i skip too much stuff, it's probably my 1st time doing that in 10+ years, cause unless it's hentai i either drop or watch everything)

10/10 for Anya parts
3/10 for non Anya parts
so the anime = 6/10 ? :D

anyway, her reading minds power is interesting, i should probably watch more anime with characters like that

It's a bit too early for any real, fleshed-out opinion, so I'm just going off vibes.
This intro episode was okay.


I like the action that was shown. Not sure about Loid just yet, and if they flesh him out as a character in later episodes, but he's a Gary Stu interrupted by hyper cute Loli. Anya is completely annoying but in contrast to Loid makes him less stoic and a little human. It works.

Hope the next eps give more body to this story.

THE MOST OVERRATED anime that I've ever seen!!! I can't believe you guys! It does not deserve its rank. Do you forget AoT, Full metal and Death note? Do you really think this garbage is better than those masterpieces?

Looks good. Anya is a bit annoying but its cool that she's an esper, experimented by the man that Loid is looking for. Its time to see the wife next. Loid is an awesome spy. He's a top agent indeed.

I get to know the series about the manga getting top sales and not too long after an animation got announced. Got interested that a family consist of a spy, asassin, and esper. Quality animation is good which I think this anime adaptation of a high selling manga deserves.

Also, I like the ending. Its so chill.

So, I decided to watch this with a friend based on the seasonal trailers. I thought the comedic glimpses of the little girl had sold it for me in the manga images, but seeing her animated was just too much to not fall in love in the show. She just makes the show for me, everything else is just awesome frosting!

I started this anime with no prior knowledge of the plot and only the synopsis to go on. I haven't even read the manga yet and didn't know if it was good enough to warrant a read. Needless to say, this first episode changed my mind. It was a perfect start to the season with introductions of Twilight and the ever-so-cute Anya. I can't wait to see how they get a wife into the picture. The first episode was just SO CUTE.

This 1st episode is a rather lovely introduction to the main cast and plot of the story, it's got all the things you'd want for an enjoyable introductory episode.

SPY x FAMILY promises us a rather unique and refreshing theme that isn't easily found anywhere else currently. The premise of the show is your usual spy in disguise kind of trope is commonplace, but the fact that said spy is required to not only go undercover but to have a family of his own. Oh, that's interesting. Loid must face new and unfamiliar challenges, yet the fruit birthed by his effort will be sweet and charming.

On that note, knowing little about this story, I can expect some good slice of life moments, along with the action as was seen in this episode given how the base of the show revolves around spies and war. Now, what better studios to adapt this story than the combination of Wit Studio and Cloverworks. I mean... That is such a solid combo, it's sure to knock the animation out of mediocrity. And chances are, it will.

Anya is really adorable, she's quite easily the cream of the crop from those orphanage kids, not to mention she could read others' minds. Loid might still consider her as a temporary aide to his grand mission, but seeing them both cheer so wholeheartedly after Anya's passing of the entrance exams exemplifies what is to come within their relationship.

Just started watching this anime (haven't read the manga). I know I'm late to the party but my plan was to watch it once the entire season finished but the clips on YouTube convinced me to just start watching it. Anya is the star of the show and she is incredibly cute and adorable. Her past is sad but glad that Loid was told that she was adopted multiple times as I think that gave sympathy for her. Looking forward to the next episode!

I haven’t read the manga so keep that in mind.

Meh.

The animation is top notch. I would say it’s some of the best I’ve seen, however, the color palette is a little bland so far. The story so far is pretty middle of the road for me as well but I will give this show another couple of episodes to see if it grips me.

Anya is so adorable. She reminds me of that little girl from Hotaru no Haka, they're just too precious, they make you just wanna protect them and cherish them and love them lol. Anyway, I'm guessing that the "mom" will have her own uniqueness to her as well. Maybe some sort of power as well or just some weird quirk.

Really enjoyable episode that does its job as giving us an introduction to 2 of 3 leads who are very likeable. Its also a pretty cute show so far as well with some pretty good action even though is pretty quick. I was caught of guard and it kind of made me laugh when the dude killed his own henchmen.

I was never a fan of "[redacted] moe characters", if that's what Anya's character would be called. Or really young, 'cute', uwu characters ("pwease"). I really didn't think I'd be a fan of the Anya character, and I'm only watching this to stay in the loop, of what might be one of the most significant anime of the decade thus far. The praise I've seen this show receive goes into the stratosphere, and I had to investigate.

Having said that, yeah, Anya's frickin adorable. I don't even know why. I don't find her annoying in the slightest. I love all her little facial expressions and reactions. I like that she's not TOO intelligent for someone her age... and that her telepathy doesn't make her a genius. I always disliked the "genius child" trope, where it's essentially just an adult in a 5-10. At the same time, she's not a complete idiot either. A lot of her misunderstandings can be chalked up to her being a child, kinda like IRL -- or she'll even form a really funny incorrect logic about something. But her personality is executed great. She's cute, funny, and quite forgivable. Everything I hate about [redacted] moes or "UWU children" is rectified with this Anya character. The anime industry should be taking notes.

Edit: I confused "loli" with "moe", as someone brought to my attention. Either way, I dislike both of these tropes most of the time.
