"Chichi, chipompa chimpompa" - Anya Forger

I believed from the trailers and promotions that Spy x Family was going to be a very fun ride, and as matter of fact it is. You got to see three characters trying to make up a normal family, but what makes these three members very memorable is that they have interesting roles: there's Loid (secretly named as Twilight) who is a spy, Yor who is an assassin, and Anya who is an esper. So on top of a super simple story about a family doing slice of life stuff there are few well directed action scenes, and an alright comedy that consists for the majority of Anya doing funny derp faces that quickly became an overused meme.

The show is as basic as you can expect, which is honestly not a bad thing, at least for me because I can always appreciate simple shows without much going forward. There's no drama and no particularly important twist, only quite of few serious moments when the characters go through risky missions with even some not very noticeable dark turns with people getting shot or even blowing up, but the series is mostly about a group of characters struggling to support each other. The only slight complain I have is that I wish the characters have something more to be said and knowing more things about them, but all I can think of them so for right now is Loid is cool and handsome, Yor is badass, caring and hot, Anya is cute and strange. I guess this can improve for the next part but no much stands out outside of few likable personalities, but still not disappointed because the characters stands out a little thanks to amusing moments such as Lois rescuing Anya from a group of criminals revealing that Loid is also a master of disguise, and also Yor gets drunk during a party and briefly fights against Loid to "save princess Anya" + Yor relationship with her brother, or even Anya trying to get along with her classmates but since most of them are jerks she fights back with her esper abilities. Which brings to the "funny" memeable Anya faces, they should be the highlights of the show in terms of comedy but they never made me laugh once since they don't bring anything creative or innovative to the table, they were... there. The series is also carried a bit by well put out animation, not the most impressive I've seen but the fights are well choreographed, and with good movements everything that is action or not looks great and many shots has highly detailed backgrounds. All in all Spy x Family deserves a shot and its high popularity in recent months is understandable, it's a pleasant family friendly show where you don't have to think much about important plot infos and you just have a lot of fun with, you can watch it with your friends and/or family members and having a good time without worry about violence or fanservice. I'm interested to see what part 2 has to offer, hopefully on the same level of enjoyment or even better.
