Nice! But somehow feels a bit rushed in the anime.
It also felt like the jokes were funnier in the Manga. is it because I've already read the Manga? happened with anyone else?
yup may be but I love the loid and Anya wholesome moments especially a anya's character design
As someone mentioned in a reply to my previous post, that was because the 1st chapter had more pages in it than other chapters in the Manga. So hopefully it's only gonna get better from now on.

Yeah, it's mostly wholesome. There are dark jokes and sad commentaries of characters here and there but it's mostly wholesome.

"Masterpiece" is all I can say. This type of genre is a good refresh from the fantasy type throughout the years. Hope studio stay true to the story and animation 10/10 for me. To all the staffs of this anime please be safe ❤️

I can see why people have been waiting for this show so much. Old-school action dadime (that's a portmanteau between dad and anime that I just realised existed and will use at an opportunity): got plenty of suspense, but also just a simple show about found family. Love it!

Is Anya an early lock for 'Child That Must Be Protected At All Times' of the Year?

Pretty solid premiere. Already liking the setting as well as the comedy and overall wholesomeness. Looking forward to Yor's introduction next week.

Woot, it's finally here! Easily one of the series I've wanted to get adapted the most.

And it did not disappoint! And we've got plenty more of madness awaiting us.

As expected, a pretty good animation, very fluid without losing detail and with very vivid backgrounds. The OST accompanies the work well, I already want to see the OP's musical style (I don't know if it's already published, I only see OP's for the first time in his anime). It seems that the interactions between characters will be the strong point of the work.

I quite liked the humor of anime, it had been a while since I smiled so much with an episode, funny faces are my weakness. It doesn't seem to be an anime where people have a lot of common sense despite wanting to be serious, but it's forgiven for being a good comedy.

At long last SPY x FAMILY is finally here! Pretty solid episode covering the whole of chapter 1. The pacing is kinda slow and I spotted CGs in the background but who cares about that.

Hachiman's Voice Actor is a fitting choice of twilight and Anya's VA as well. The only thing that is bugging me is that they don't call Loid's agent name "Twilight" in English which kinda sucks.

Some panels in the manga like the scene where Loid pointed the gun toward Edgar's head and says "Turn around and I'll kill you" have less impact in the anime than in the adapted manga, but the panel where Anya and Loid sleep together on the couch is very wholesome and heartwarming. With that all being said, it is a really solid take on adapting SPY x FAMILY looking forward to the next episode.

I don't know anything about this anime or manga, never heard of it, I don't know what the fuck this is, I just found out about it today after seeing the high-ass rating with only 1 episode so I'm wondering, is this a good anime or just another overrated crap like plenty of the other overrated crap around here?

I just can't trust the ratings here.

This was such an good first episode I'm so happy!!
One of my fave manga, definitely the anime I've been most excited for this season and I'm so glad it's getting the amazing adaption it deserves!
It was so nice to see the characters animated, and of course Anya is so freaking cute I think the VA did a great job for her! Her father/daughter relationship with Loid was adapted so perfectly omg
CAN'T WAIT FOR EPISODE 2 AND TO SEE YOR AHHH

FMAB got a 4/10 from me, definitely the most overrated garbage I've seen so far, at least I will trust that this anime will be better, it's animated by Wit Studio and CloverWorks after all so there are some promises here.

It's like literally listening to Hachiman talking all over again. It was a great 1st episode, better than I imagined it to be. Great animation, great background, great sound effects, great design and a lot of unique camera angles. Anya is cute I guess? I dropped the manga after some chapters but I'll keep on watching for now.

The whole episode was framed and boarded as if it's a late 90s anime, and had layering similar to Noein in some parts. I'm liking where the direction is going for this show. It's a strong first episode, to say the least.

I'm pretty much optimistic that this style will carry on for the rest of the show, given the director's reputation.

Please tell me I'm not the only manga reader disappointed here? The spy x family manga is very light hearted, practically a slice of life. Not only did they not follow the source material they also made it very dramatic and not very light hearted or humorous. I can only hope they will get less dramatic when they introduce the wife, otherwise this is going to be cringe.

I think the rest of the episode should be a lighthearted one considering this is only the first episode. I want a more warm lighthearted adaptation as well and I'm sure most manga readers too. Only one way to find out I guess.

Oh, my Twilight knows how to completely finish his mission through disguising, not gonna lie he's pretty good at it, it's almost shape-shifting, and totally lost it when he broke off some engagement(?) with a woman after some couple was proposing to each other and when he spits the coffee onto the newspaper he's reading. Also, the mission to form a family will be the start of his new chapter. The action-oriented segments for the most part were pretty neat and nicely directed.

Anya is a wholesome telepathy peanut lover wholesome blob who we must not mess with her consciousness when our inner thoughts are on and she lacks in education because “she hates studying” yikes, this is going to be tough for Twilight to represent the ideal worthy family whenever there are upcoming events.

Anya entered a 2-way exam at a very privileged private school. I like how the direction shows the struggle behind the exam is, and congrats she passed her 1st exam!

Very enjoyable first episode and to those who are complaining about the fast pacing, it's meant to be fast and the dialogue is very coherent that can take anyone for more or less 3-5 seconds to those who have read it in the manga but they put a lot of effort into really put every detail in the direction of the story. Already my AOTS, Doraemon I mean Dororo chad director has impressed me with the directing here. I can't wait to see the secondary exam.

Fuck she's so cute here

Hope people dont make her lewd images. Otherwise they are truely degens. Is nothing sacred ?

Yeah, the plot wasn't rushed. Someone else already mentioned this in a reply to my previous forum post. But this chapter had over 70 pages. maybe that's why the narrative feels rushed as if they tried real hard to squeeze in all those scenes from Manga into 1 episode. but hopefully it'll get better from next episode.

And yes, there was more in the episode than just "introduction of 2 main chara and plot" lol

I have a feeling that an anime only might find the pacing just right. Maybe it's because of reading the Manga that it seems a bit fast paced.

What you're smoking bro? the 1st episode adapted the 1st chapter literally panel by panel, i just checked, it's 100% the same tone as the manga. Which "Spy x Family" you're reading?

Wow, what a first episode. I felt that so many things happened haha, was everything here just chapter 1 of the manga? Also I didn't watch any trailers or read any info for this series, so when the voice over went "This girl was a telepath" I went HUH? Lol

The cuteness of their father/daughter going out was contrasted with the kidnapping, that was scary. But I agree with Anya, Twilight is very very cool! I look forward to knowing more about him. I am very much enjoying the voice acting and I'm excited for Hayamin's character appearance.

The ED is so good! Anya joining his father at the sofa, wholesome T_T

Great first episode. Lighthearted, super easy to watch, I could binge 100 episodes of this show without even complaining. Not sure how much they'll adapt, but I hope it's the whole thing.

The animation is beautiful and the stills are so crisp, it's Wit and Cloverworks, so what did we expect?

Anya's little "yep" is going to make me cry, how is she so cute?

I don't usually praise the first episode of any anime that much, but considering the studios that worked on this and how highly-praised the manga version is, the expectations were obviously very high. But I can certainly say that, without a shadow of a doubt, the studios did this episode the kind of justice that it deserves and then some. Atsumi Tanezaki's portrayal of Anya-chan was obviously the highlight, but the animation and the action sequences deserve equal praise as well. I couldn't get over how smooth, fluid and pristine the characters, their movements and the environment looked. We've not only got a true anime of the season in this one, but a lock for anime of the year as well guys. Looking forward to the rest of the show when Loyd/Twilight recruits his wife and other stuff as well.
