this was awesome. loved this.

will have to look over how all the enemies' bullets didn't hit out mc's though and why the dude didn't shoot miri there, he had an easy chance.

i'm not sure but is miri his real daughter?

5/5. great first episode and great substitute for spy x family on saturdays.

the amount of people judging this as bad and dropping it after just a single episode is so sad and idiotic.

The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.
Feeling half happy, half sad.

I... I LOVE THIS. THIS IS MY CUP OF COFFEE IN ANIME.

"Our kid" he said??! I know this blonde dude is straight (or maybe bi lol) but DO NOT STOP ME FROM SHIPPING THESE TWO DADDIES. THEY'RE CALLED DADDIES FOR A REASON. THEY HAVE A KID. DANG. And blonde dude is a mom. Look at him cleaning and cooking lmao! This is so domestic! I love this! XD

Also Uchi and Toshi as the daddies' voice actors?! This pair is just Yuuri and Yuratchka! XD

(There's a theme we love as BL fans. We love BL manga that feature kids. We love BL family stories. This anime is not BL but it's still funny we kinda got what we want lmao!)

It seems that Miri has been travelling after her mother told her that her dad was going to be at this event.

Judging by her backpack, she probably left without her mother consent.

She had pictures of her "Papa" that Kazuki found later on.

Miri might not be aware of the "look" of her "Papa" yet -maybe she just took these cause her mom is on it with some stranger she doesn't know, she's just 4...- , but maybe that'll be explainatory for her when she'll start asking questions after a few years.. and then the fact Kazuki and the guy they killed look alike will pass for her as "Okay, you're my Papa" until they decide to tell her the truth.

The real question is : Won't the mom come to try to get her daughter back ? Will we have Kazuki and Rei falling for the same woman ? 

Mysteryyyyy !

This episode was a bit slow/boring at parts, but gloablly it's a good 8 so far (first episodes are often there to set the environment and stuff).

The next 2 - 3 episodes will reveal how this series will be (probably very good).

PS : When Kazuki said "Don't bring someone unless you're gonna care for them start to finish", and then the flashback of his pregnant girl... I think she and the baby were killed because of his job and that's why he got rid of the cat at first, and then "tried" to fit the Papa role for Miri cause she reminds him of his previous GF saying "I want to see Papa".

the show is decent so far. i hope the kid develops a personality outside of just being cute, that would get boring and repetitive quick. the two mc’s seem to be well rounded, with some potential traits for character development to occur through. i’ll keep watching but i’m not blown away from just this one episode.

many crime/childcare shows been getting popular.
lots of 3d to start. Pair got slick action tho & funny. dont like the mc tho.
cute cat needs to come back.
Why design Kazuki so similar to the killed target? And mom's on stage right, could send Miri there, or another design overlap issue? And why the dead dad took his own kid hostage?
stormtrooper aim fits the silly vibe but on the fence for now.

Why did no one question why a small girl was roaming around the streets all by herself? Why didn't anyone she approached call the authorities about a missing child? Why did the man that worked at the hotel let her in without asking where her parents are?

Why no one asked why a small girl was yelling "help" on the back of a big doggy and just ended up saying "She's so cute" ? 

Why did men try to actually kill that small girl on a street before getting knocked out by her assassin mommy ?

Amazing first episode! All the guys look handsome... Even Miri is cute too... And Miri is my hometown name. Lol.

Well, it is sad he have to let go of the cat since his partner love cat... I thought the Kazuki is Miri father... Then I red this discussion talking about the dead target is her father... Wait... Which one the truth then... Or course she's Kazuki daughter right?.... If she's the dead guy daughter.... The target's wife still alive... So...

Not sure where my comment went but I hope I do not make a double one.

The moment I saw the way they animated the MP5K, they've bought me. I really like the animation and the art style. The story and characters ain't half bad either. It's a fun little show. Will continue to watch it for sure.

On the other hand I really hope that it doesn't turn out to be a BL type of anime. It doesn't look like it will but tou never know.

No hate, it's just that it isn't my cup of tea.

It's definitely not bad although I don't see it surpassing SpyxFamily's popularity.

I hope we won't have another Lycoris Recoil situation where Rei can dogde bullets and succeed in every mission without a scratch.

7/10 until now

It's spyxfamily but with 2 hot dads. Raven(bad in chores but good in the killing job) and blonde(perfect in both) haired parents with an adopted kid(4 same as anya), also found by the blonde.

As of now a 7.5/10 for me

If it turns out to be an aromantic representation of the two men, then I can recommend this to an aromantic audience.

You don't need to have romantic or sexual feelings for each other, especially when you and said partner decided to start a new family by adopting a kid. That's what I felt during the episode. I support their queerplatonic relationship (of course I don't mind what their sexual orientation is; that's up to the production crew) being a possible hint.

I'm ready to be surprised by a PA Works original yet again. Let's give it another episode or two to get a more proper feel for it, but I think anyone can easily sense the potential this holds. Not that it was an issue, but Spy X Family become a bit too slice-of-life-y for my taste. I hope this doesn't become something similar, where it's mostly light fluff with the "childcare" tag thrown in there as a gimmick. I'm going to bet that it won't be merely so, and that it will indeed carry some weight; those flashbacks can probably attest to that.

The first episode was a promising start, I really like the characters and I felt rather emotionally invested in them by the end. The action was engaging and I thought the comedy was funny too. I thought some of the action sequences were unrealistic, but it was still fun to watch so I don't really mind. Will continue watching it, can't wait to see where it goes from here :D

This one really reminds me of Tiger and Bunny.
The kid's VA really made an impact making the character so much adorable. Will she be a competition to our Spy x Family girl?

So far, it's good enough.


Not really interesting as we got some hint of the backstory of the blonde-MC of how it went in just an episode, more like, okay.
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

Oh it gets worse when you examine Miri's situation:

Miri was the daughter of their target (the two buddy daddies).

That means any or all assigned male target and their bodyguards could be a father...

And episode 1 showed us the many envelopes shoved in the drawer that the ex-wife/girlfriend didn't claim...

So yeah... the "Miri's Orphanage for Children with Assassinated Fathers" is gonna be fully stocked by the end of the season.
