Mission: Yozakura Family (TV)

Source: Manga (ongoing @ 23 volumes, Hitsuji Gondaira)

Demographic: Shounen

Animation Studio: Silver Link

Genres: action, comedy, thriller

Themes: school, spies

Plot Summary: Taiyo Asano is a super shy high school student and the only person he can talk to is his childhood friend, Mutsumi Yozakura. It turns out that Mutsumi is the daughter of the ultimate spy family. Even worse, Mutsumi is being harassed by her overprotective, nightmare of a brother, Kyoichiro. Taiyo will have to take drastic steps to save Mutsumi.

Air Date & Platform:
April 7, 2024 (Sunday)
Available on: Disney+, Hulu

Episode Count / Runtime: Pending
----------------------------------

Sounds like a variation of Spy x Family, though this seems to have a lot of supporting characters in the key art. It's got quite a bit of source material, so it must have something going for it.

The first episode was okay enough. The premise is somewhat interesting and the characters are quirky yet it is very predictable and does not do anything that makes it stand out in any way. It is a very mid start and honestly an entertaining mid show is not a bad thing.

The premise is very absurd and I can point to many things in the first two episodes and question it but as long as you turn your brain off it is a decent romp. I do feel bad for Taiyo and how much bullshit he has to go through though.

With each episode we are getting further and further away from actual spy activities but at least it is fun. Taiyo might not be very talented but his sheer strength of will is something to behold (and worry about).
