Spy X Family was supposed to be the seasonal anime, and it got really high ratings. I’m just surprised Kaguya managed to go even further, because it seemed like everyone and their mom was watching SxF.


My biggest regret: Reading all 200+ chapters of Kanojo, Okarishimasu

Only people who like Kaguya-sama are watching the third season of it. I assume people who don’t like the show would have just dropped it during the first season and would not have stuck around for the next 2 just to give them low scores.

Same reason why fruits basket, a niche shoujo, is ranked so high and even hit number 1 briefly. The difference is that Kaguya-sama has the large fan base necessary for it to stay at the top

SxF never deserved that hype. At the beginning it was good but soon it became repetitive and annoying. Almost every episode just felt like fillers. Even in this season series like summertime rendering, tomodachi game deserved more than sxf.

Facts. I love Summertime Render, Tomodachi Game and even Date a Live(a long time fan) more than SxF

to like a season, you first have to watch it. People dropped it just because they don't like the genre especially shounen fanboys. And tbh even first few episodes of fmab and gintama wasn't that good as well infact most of the anime are like that.

I personally loved both, but Spy Fam was more just mindless enjoyable fluff to me while Love is War season 3 had much more compelling characters and a FAR better conclusion (LIW does have 2 more seasons to work off of but even if it were season 1 airing this season I'd still probably prefer it)

This was Kagya’s weakest season. I love Kaguya, but unlike other fanboys who refuse to see criticism of their favorite show, I can tell when it’s not doing the best it can.

Spy x Family > Kaguya S3

I’m surprised you say that. I personally feel like this season was its strongest yet. The humour felt very fresh and unlike any other anime I have seen so far. I genuinely laughed at nearly every episode which I cant say about many shows. I guess that just goes to prove how subjective comedy is.

Just binged all Tomodachi Game. I had low expectations going in. Was just gonna let the series play in the background while I played my Switch, but 3 episodes in I was too engrossed to focus on my switch lol.

I didn't think it would be able to surpass Spy x Family and yeah it was highly expected to be the seasonal anime but the way Love is war ended this season really outshone spy x family over all, atleast, in my opinion!!!

froots bosket hit number 1 and dowvoted below number 1. See the percentage of 1s in small fanbase anime in comparison to big size ones. Easy to downvote small babies.

One had an ending that reached a climax the other had an “ending” with there being a cour 2 in the Fall

One had a weak beginning but strong end (Kaguya) and the other was strong all-throughout (Spy x Family)

So while Kaguya might’ve shined brighter at the end, Spy x Family was the better seasonal and consistent (Kaguya’s last two seasons were, but def not this one).

Spy x Family > Kaguya S3. If you disagree, just admit recency bias and cope.


Yeah Spy×Family was consistent in the fact that it was consistently mid and had a few good episodes.

On the other hand, Kaguya-sama remained interesting the entire season and had an amazing ending.

So yeah Kaguya-sama was an overall better show.
And it's not recency bias.(Atleast for me)

Also it's just an opinion and ratings seem to say that most people think the same way that's it.

Spy x family this season is like deceiving the audience, you see in the genre it says action but in anime there is no action at all there is only slice of life. I lowered my score from 10 to 8 because I didn't see action in this anime

Yeah it pretty much sums it up. Compare kaguya sama s1 score and spy x family for a more balanced comparison. It's S3 for kaguya sama so all the haters got filtered out. So the only remaining members are hardcore kaguya fans who will spam nothing less than a 10. Even kingdom S4 and S5 have such a high score with a member count of 25k for a similar reason.

Also asking this question in kaguya forum doesn't help. Ask the same question in SxF forum and you'll get contrasting answers.

You might be surprised but Kaguya manga readers already predicted that this is gonna be anime of the season. "Even Spy x Family" got me laughing, Spy x Family is good but it's overhyped...it was never even close to beating Kaguya-sama ever since Aka created this arc.

2 things

1. That’s your own expectations’ fault

2. The series does contain action. It’s just focusing more on SoL now. Don’t forget this isn’t 100% an action show, if has small pockets of it spread across the series.


yes you are right that spy x family focuses on slice of life and i think it's good that's why i give it an 8 but it's a shame their only advantage is this, the rest is their action, their romance is very lacking and among them yor is the weakest in character

Only people who unironically use “mid” are children. Strange coincidence.


1) Children don't know the meaning of mid.
2) I guess I have offended someone here.
3) For you I'll say "Spy×Family was just Ok".

I hope you are fine with this

You haven’t give a single show below a 7

And you are going to give SF a 7

And call it mid

As a 7

L m f a o


I have given shows below 7.

Yes I am not saying SF is bad, it's similar to AOT season 4 part 2. It started of really good, I was invested in it but then got predictable and boring each passing episode.

And also, I don't usually pick up shows that I won't end up liking to some degree, so I have less shows below 7.

I know very well that I give shows a higher ratings usually so you can say my 7s will be your 6s. For me, the gap between a 6 and a 7 is huge and like a 5 and a 6 is nearly the same just slight difference. So for me, a 5 or a 6 means forgettable/dead average. And 7 is Ok. 8 is good 9 is very good. And 10 is perfect. You can decide where you would put mid somewhere in this.

If Kaguya Season 1 starting episodes were not average then % of People who left after Season 1 would have been 0.9% ....I felt that S1 starting episodes were not that good but it got to whole another level after Chika Dance episode😁.Personally though I feel that Season 2 had the best animation and comedy,hence S2 was the best out of all three seasons for me.

This season of LIW is the culmination of their confession war, it's the awaited moment since S1 so you can't expect it to be not monumental. Spy x Family is all good but as of the moment it's still yet to offer its overarching package

Kaguya Sama reached its peak in S3 while in case of Spy x Family not a single major event have take place. I am just waiting for Loid's backstory which is peak Spy x Family at the moment.

I think it's better if you compare S1 of Kaguya Sama with Spy x Family S1 lol.

Kaguya Sama is sequel and spy x family is not so it’s not surprising but you can compare spy x family with the first season of kaguya Sama.
