Ideally suited for those who loved the domestic espionage of Spy x Family but crave more shonen-style combat.
Series Analysis:
High school romance is usually awkward, but for Taiyo Asano, it is literally a death sentence. In Mission: Yozakura Family, the only way to protect his childhood friend Mutsumi—and survive her psychotic, sis-con brother Kyoichiro—is to marry into the family business. That business happens to be elite espionage. The series balances slapstick domestic chaos with high-octane battles, forcing Taiyo to level up from a timid introvert to a super-spy capable of enduring the Yozakura household's lethal training. While the anime currently sits in a tactical hiatus, the threat of rival spies never truly sleeps. To keep your intel current and intercept the signal for the next operation, adding a reminder for the series return is the ultimate counter-surveillance move.
