Part 2 feels like the show has completely settled into its own style, and I was still having a great time with it.
I really enjoyed getting more of the Forger family together. Anya is still the biggest source of comedy for me, while Loid and Yor's attempts to maintain their fake family life create some genuinely funny situations. Their secrets make even normal family moments more entertaining.
The story also gives more attention to the world around them and adds some good action alongside the comedy. I liked that the series doesn't completely forget its spy-thriller side, even though the family moments are clearly the main attraction.
The characters aren't perfect, which makes them more fun to watch. Loid can overthink everything, Yor can be hilariously awkward, and Anya is obviously st…

Spy x Family Part 2 is a great continuation of the first part. It was a lot of fun to follow our family's adventures once again. While characters like Loid, Yor, Anya, and Yuri continue to be developed really well, new additions such as Bond and Fiona bring even more charm to the series. Compared to the first part, there are a few more filler-like episodes, but it's still a very enjoyable watch. My favorite part of this cour was definitely the Tennis Arc.

In a lot of ways Spy x Family part 2 makes attempts to improve on the shortcomings of part 1. It’s much slower paced, giving more focus to character interaction and development, as well as striking a better balance between the action and silliness. While it ultimately does end up following the same formula of the first part, there’s a notable trajectory shift in how the series is progressing which leaves me with more hope that it will not fall victim to stagnation in the future.
First and foremost, I was most pleased to see that Yor was allowed more time in the spotlight. While she does still end up being the least significant member of the Forger family, this kind of neglectful treatment actually ends up feeding many of her character moments. The few episodes which she’s given showcase…

Spy x Family (Season 1) Part 2 is actually a really nice continuation of the first part. The daily life of the Forgers carries on like any typical family on the outside looking in. However, there is that same individual struggle within that each family member is grappling with. I dare say Bond has it easiest, which is to be expected I suppose.
Pretty much everything I referenced in my review of the first half shows itself here. First and probably least important after scooping up bond there wasn't any of the search and rescue stuff that I said would most likely get boring for me. I liked that a section of the season focused on the kids at Eden Academy. Anya is definitely still trying to do her part in "Plan B" since "Plan A" may actually be more of a struggle, however this season spent ti…

I have been binging anime for a year now but for some reason did not watch Spy X Family. After watching season 2, I'm a fan.
As many anime I have watched, Spy x Family season one is brilliant and excellent and sets up the entire scene together with good character development. Season two has more fillers although some characters are developed. The first and last episodes of season 2 are not essential to watch but are quite amusing anyway. The majority of the season is spent on the luxury cruise at sea, where Yor takes on the role of main character. She is prominent and strong in her appearance while acting as a body guard.
Anya and Loid take a smaller part in this adventure even though the youngest character in the family has a hard time sitting still or not being involved.
Overall a reall…

Nice and heartwarming, but that's all.
Let's start with the positive aspects:
The series has quite an interesting premise. A fun way to expose the way all humans build masks to interact with others presented in the shape of the innocent perspective of a little girl.
Most of the characters of the series are very likeable and there's a good balance between their personalities. There is a nice chemistry between the main three protagonists and even the secondary characters are well introduced.
The animation is pretty with nice backgrounds and flowed scenes. The soundtrack is simple but helpful for building the atmosphere.
However, I could say that the biggest issue about this anime is the lack of complexity and surprise.
An important part of it is highly predictable. It's easy to infer wher…

Spy x Family Part 2 was a great follow-up and honestly had me hooked just as the first half did. One thing I love most is that it still separates the spy thriller from the family comedy so seamlessly. The core operation with Operation Strix doesn't exactly make huge leaps forward, but it doesn't need to, because the series excels at the smaller stories. The tennis match was a joyous surprise, demonstrating how insanely good he can be when he has a mission. But the best part is how that gets juxtaposed against his home life. With Yor and Anya at home, he gets lost sometimes, lowers his guard, and just acts more human. I sort of like that equilibrium, as it makes Twilight less of a spy automaton and more of a guy learning to be a father.
The characters continue to carry the show, but I wish…

I am not a fan of kids, I hate them with a passion. However, Anya stole my heart immediately! I laughed and I smiled so much watching this show, it is truly what I needed after a bad break up. Anya is the most adorable and beautiful girl ever! Though, Yor is equally beautiful and drop dead sexy. I love Yor's outfit. :wink:
I've watched a lot of shows and Anya is by far the most expressive character I have ever seen! I absolutely love and adore all her faces she makes and her personality. I'm in love.
I loved this show so much, binged it in a few days! I'm excited to watch season 2. Spy x Family is incredible wholesome, fun and hilarious! Highly recommend it.

It was a decent watch, not as outstanding as the previous part. 𝐌𝐚𝐲𝐛𝐞 𝐢𝐭’𝐬 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐠𝐨𝐧𝐞, 𝐨𝐫 𝐦𝐚𝐲𝐛𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐢𝐬 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐥 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐠𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐭. I’ve read many comments saying that Season 2 and even the manga aren’t progressing much either. That’s disappointing.
In this season/part, Anya felt kind of boring. Loid too. Yor had some progress due to Fiona, but otherwise, there were no visible changes from the first episode. I think Anya’s character development will be a tough job for the mangaka, given that she seems unwilling to change.
This anime (and manga) is missing one key element: 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞.

The pretend family of Twilight, the Thorn Princess, and the Telepath are back in the second part of season one. I still find it odd that this is known as part two when it feels more like the second season of Spy x Family. But I digress. Nothing to worry about since I love Spy x Family as a whole since the first season and the manga. And yes, religiously, I'd get the latest volume of the manga whenever it's out in the field. I love the last part, and I love this one. Sure, it doesn't have a lot of action and a little more on the family drama, yet it still works as the core family's chemistry still carries the series from beginning to end.
Sure, sticking to the formula can succeed sometimes, yet this part does introduce new characters. Like Bond, the dog of the family. He and Anya make good…

Persistent issues from the first cour constitute the majority of this part, completely losing grip on the plot and sacrificing the middling comedic value for establishing familial stability. Sure, there’s nothing wrong with building bonds (no pun intended), as each family member needs to maintain their position while withholding secrets, but the show’s approach ends up too stagnating and redundant for its own good. I can get behind the episodic nature, which is more prominent in this part compared to the last, insofar as it’s applied coherently to progress the story, which, unfortunately, isn’t the case here. We observed the self-containment being used as an asset in the previous part, and though I wasn’t a fan of it personally, it was fairly innocuous considering the general direction and…

Honestly, I was a bit nervous going into Part 2 of Spy x Family - could it live up to the hype of the first season? But oh man, it delivered and then some! I devoured every episode like a starving person, and I'm still reeling from the finale.
What I love most about this show is how it balances humor and heart. Anya's antics still have me dying laughing, but it's the quiet moments between Loid and Yor that really get me. Their fake family dynamic is so convincing, I find myself rooting for them like they're real people.
And can we talk about Damian Desmond? I love how he's trying to act all tough and edgy, but you can tell he's got a soft spot for Anya. I'm calling it now - he's going to become a valuable ally (and maybe even friend?) to the Forger family. His character adds such depth t…

5.5/10
Part 2 of SxF is as predicted more of the same and a decline off that was the banger of the first few episodes. They cut much the action parts and keep reusing the same type of jokes over and over. The show is just fine, but I did laugh from time to time and I made it through, so it cant be all bad. Overall I would say this show is ever so slightly better then Average, which is a 5/10.
My biggest problem with the show is that this is not very well written. All the charecters are pretty 1 dimensional and most of the time are just walking punch-lines. I would say this type of character is fine for the literal child that is Anya (and the whole reason to watch the show), However for her parent Loid and Yor I would say this is pretty unacceptable. Every other character is some how eve…

The narrative expands the mission of Loid Forger, now more involved in international conspiracies, while Yor faces her own dilemmas as an assassin and a mother. Anya, the lovable telepath, continues to bring lightness and charm to the series with her heartfelt reactions and antics. It's a great complement to the first part, offering more than fans expected and consolidating the series as one of the most engaging and fun in the genre today.

I honestly don't understand the hype around this anime. I was a lot more forgiving with part 1 thinking part 2 and season 2 will expand the story properly. Part 1 did its job introducing the main story and the important characters, and honestly it focused on the main story more than I anticipated.
Part 2 on the other hand, we barely get anything in these 13 episodes. Somehow after setting up the scene in part 1, warming us up for the story to move forward and getting to know the characters even more, we get boring episodes that barely move things forward.
If you're into slice of life, sure, go for it. Otherwise it's a waste of your time. Spy X Family is just an episodic TV show, like the Simpsons, you can watch it in any order, you're not missing out on much.

I'm giving it 10 because I LOVE slice of life, so it already wins some points with me, but obviously, it's not just because of that, this anime managed to invent a very interesting plot that leaves you wanting to know how things will unfold, the characters are cool and super likeable (apart from Fiona) and if you think you won't cry in this anime, you're very wrong because there are SUCH cute family moments that when you look again, your eyes are already sweating. For those who like to have crushes on anime, this one has one of the best waifus in my opinion, Yor Forger is, by far, one of the most incredible, along with Loid, for sure. Anya manages to make me laugh along with her dog Bond, who at first I thought they would leave aside, but I'm glad I was wrong. FINALLY, if you want to watch…

Between Spy x Filler and Demon Slayer, it has become clear to me why such underwhelming anime have become so popular.
It's because they have nothing to say. In having nothing to say, they are also completely nonjudgmental. Anyone can say they like Spy x Filler or Demon Slayer, and it would say absolutely nothing about them. Normies can watch them without crossing the line into "anime fan" territory. No opinions are asked of them, because there are no sides to take. Without any opinions, no thinking is required. It's a safe space for centrists to continue not having opinions on anything while feeling good about themselves.
Animes like this don't bother to explore anything deeper than superficialities and are comfortable remaining there. That itself isn't criminal in a show, as there are…

Oh Spy x Family. A show I expected to like... but didn't. One of the most unfunniest shows I've ever seen. It has a meandering story where nothing really happens and nothing really matters, especially in Part 2. I guess it's a combination of slice of life and action-comedy (even though it doesn't have a slice of life tag) with a simple plot where they're trying to stop a war and a spy named Loid had to quickly get someone to pretend to be his child then find someone to pretend to be his wife. Unfortunately, it's like I'm watching a children's cartoon. Like any show that revolves around a family is going to have a wide appeal. The first few episodes of the first part feel relevant to the main plot, but then after that, you get slice of life episodes. But then they'd also sometimes have acti…

Anya's Expressive Face
One of the most notable aspects of Spy x Family is the expressive face of Anya, the adopted child. Anya is a telepath who can read people's minds, but she often chooses to remain silent and observe the world around her. Her blank stare and deadpan expressions are a source of constant amusement for the viewers. However, Anya is also capable of a wide range of emotions, from joy to sadness to anger. Her expressive face is one of the things that makes her so endearing.

Loid, the spy, is a stoic and serious character, but he is also a softie at heart. He is constantly trying to be the perfect father to Anya, even though he has no idea what he is doing. Yor, the assassin, is a beautiful and gracef…

It has been long enough since I made a little review on Spy x Family Part 1, so now I feel like doing the same thing with part 2! Yeee I'm like... a full year late but there's a reason for this: my interest for SXF has kinda died out. Not fully died out so to say, but part 2 came around a time when more interesting shows started to pop out (*cough* *cough* Bocchi *cough* Mob Psycho *cough* *cough* Bleach *cough*) and the general hype for the series wasn't all that present anymore. Obviously tho I didn't feel like dropping it as I stated from the previous SXF review "I'm interested to see what part 2 has to offer, hopefully on the same level of enjoyment or even better" so was that the case...? Unfortunately not so much.
It starts off with Anya wanting a pet to impress her classmates, afte…
