>>282970465I wrote a program to encode messages in basic text and I want to see if anyone here can solve it. Seeing as this is spy family.
>>282970968Despair
>>282970465Yor? Built for yuri.
>>282971054Thankfully Spy X Family drops at the same time as 19 fine weekly shonen jump works and also Nues exorcist so you will have plenty of stuff to read in the meantime while you wait for dumpanon
>>282970465I think it's just an illustration unfortunately. Hopefully it's cute.

>>282971054If anyone wants to improve it go right ahead
>>282972448Based
>>282971844I just realized what she meant with "the grim reaper is right beside you"...it means that due to her killing so many people that death is with her
Next chapter comes out November 9th, btw
>>282971001Faggot
why are these monthly authors so lazy
Axe soon.
>>282971743lol, lmao even
>>282971072That's Fiona.
Yor wasn't necessary for this manga
>>282974309The whole fucking hook is the Anya knows both secrets, it's not as interesting if it's just a 1 way knowledgeAlso Yor needs to be there for Yuri
>>282970720>Yor fucks old men before killing themA true succubus
>>282970465Nice "chapter", Spyfags.>>282971743Dat Franky tho
>>282970465Mangafag catching up on the anime, here, since I only just realized S3 had premiered. How the fuck was the S3 OST out a day before S3 even started?
>>282975849Do you have a track list? Might help us narrow down if it's split cour or not depending on what's on it.
>>282976153Sure, here you go!https://vgmdb.net/album/153429
>>282971072>>282973794>cucked by Chloe before ever meeting YuriWe're reaching metaphysical levels of cuckoldry here. Soon Fiona will merge with the platonic Eidolon of cuckoldry and she will become cuckoldry, destroyer of marriages.
>>282976297Thanks, anon. Skipping the early ones. These tracks aren't always in episode order, but this one looks like it is.>20 Team Sports 1:39>21 The Lady Patriots Society 1:51>22 First Lady 1:48This is Melinda.>23 Wiped Out 2:13Maybe Yuri's visit?>24 No Way Out 2:24>25 A Duty to Protect Our Country 2:29>26 Not Afraid 2:46>27 Playing It Cool 1:44I assume this is bus arc, though last one could be Yor's outing with the OLs.>28 Growing Anxiety 2:45>29 Face to Face 1:48>30 For My Sister 2:38>31 Limit Break 2:13This looks like Wheeler arc. I assume the last one is Fiona's freak out. If they're getting that far, they're finishing the arc.>32 Adore Subordinate 2:07>33 Dreaming 1:23>34 Summoning the Courage 2:00>35 sunset (Season 3)I don't know about these. Adore Subordinate may be 89. Summoning the Courage may be 88 or 90. Sunset could be the end of 90 or anime original.This is definitely looking like it's gonna be single cour. Holy rushed, Batman.
>>282977193No, wait. Adore Subordinate is the Sylvia and Fiona part of 87. Okay, so probably 87 + anime original or 88 + anime original for ending.
>>282977193Adore Subordinate is 87 (Nurse Sylvia), Summoning the Courage is probably the end of 86, along with sunset. Not sure what Dreaming is for, but it could be for when Bond is pretending to be zoo animals.
>>282970720Ok but why does she keep bringing Anya with her to this?
>>282970465It took this long for the romance to move along? How long until the main war plot to move along too?
>>282977685The "main war plot" (hint: it's not a war plot) already moved recently, retard.
sex with Damian
>>282971844>Ahahaha i'm a murderer so funnyCan this bitch die
>>282976721She will be forced to settle for Franky, and she will like it.
>>282979409No, even Franky will cuck her. Probably with some quirk chungus nerdy girl.
>>282971743>no chapter until the second week of NovemberYIPPEE!!!!
>>282977491Looks like the album was uploaded last week so I checked what these sounded like.>Dreaming: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77iNHwRJCVsThis does seem like it could be Bond's animal show.>Summoning the Courage:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yIJ4zuioiAYThis is not 88. You may be right that it's 86. I could maybe see it being when Yuri shows up at the apartment. Otherwise, it's probably anime original.
>>282980301The ideal.Just missing big breasts and big ass tags.
>>282971743
>>282980301what does Nipple stimulation means ?
>>282974522Franky is always on point.
>>282971743>Loid is Frankenstein's monster, a being made of multiple different people>Yor is the ReaperNeat.
>>282971743Damn I NEED a full body of that Mummy Fiona
>>282971743Oh noDamian's vampire powers are giving me a boner
>>282971072Cursed
>>282971743CURSE YOU AXEMAN!!!
>>282971743>Franky is the clown from ITWhat did Axeman mean by this?
>>282971743He killed the hype…
>>282972448The idea is nice, ESL-kun.>Is today a new chapter coming out>Is a new chapter coming out today?and>Is it extra illustration>Is it a special illustration?
>>282980688I know we're all virgins here, anon, but seriously?
>>282971743Oh, the latest arc was a Halloween special after all.
What's name of this chair?
>>282983650Lol, you're very set on that, anon.
Where's the chapter?
>>282984601Right here >>282971743It's an ad!
>>282971743Yuri's reaction is how I feel about this.
>>282984128Me
>>282971743Boorf
>>282971743What the fuck? We have to wait two more fucking weeks for a new chapter????
>>282984980>he doesn't know
>>282971072Fiona would make a cute couple with Yuri
>>282984628
>>282985000Let me guess... hiatus?
>>282985043The usual. Next update is November 9th.
>>282985783Oh god
>>282985898Clearly we were making too much progress.
>>282985023Chloe is much cuter than Fiona.
>>282987035>Yuri's bruise instantly healed after he apologized
>>282986226As long as he sticks to the progress, it's whatever. I'd rather have this than what we had before, even if it seems like his breaks are getting worse as time goes on.
>>282978801Damian belongs to fat old men.
>>282978877Seconded. Her whole naive and dumb schtick is not enough to justify her government-sanctioned murders. It's insane that she's expected to have a happily-ever-after ending. She's a an actual psycho and she should die, because there is also no way that she hasn't killed anyone who didn't deserve to be killed.
>>282987896George Glooman...
>>282987945I'm sure all the people Twilight has killed have been 100% evil too
>>282988067Twilight has an actual brain and is obsessed with data, his targets are vouched for by both him and his agency. That's a stark difference from Yor who is just a rabid dog who kills who she's ordered to kill without question.
>Yor warped him
>>282988169>calling Yor a rabid dog who kills who she's ordered to kill without question when Twilight got the military's attention for doing exactly thatOh, the irony.
>>282988198It's weird, right? How do you lose your mind over someone so cute?
>Nov 9thOh god
>>282987035That's why she's beating the pants off her in that popularity poll.
>>282987945>because there is also no way that she hasn't killed anyone who didn't deserve to be killedThat is the case and you can't prove otherwise. Garden isn't the government's lapdog either btw. They literally only go after people they want and those people are always up to no good.Meanwhile Twilight was the blood hungry killer that took out his anger on soldiers for being Ostanian, and manipulated all sorts of people before discarding them and moving on without feeling a thing.>his targets are vouched for by both him and his agencyYou wish. WISE sends him to do all sorts of shit that he can't verify and has to take their word on. Pic fucking related.Or are you going to assume WISE must be undoubtedly good and would never use him to get their dirty work done? You gonna give WISE the benefit of the doubt but not Garden? Hating on Yor while defending Twilight only makes you look retarded because they both have blood on their hands and they're very much alike.
>>282988431>>282988644[REDACTED] was about to kill Franky until the Ostanian Army unit that he deserted fired back at them.
>>282988458I love these two being drawn together desu
>>282988620Kind of surprising with a lot of the other results to be honest, but it looks like most of the voters really are manga readers after all.
Did Yor fight in the war?
>>282988722I like pictures of them working together. It's a nice thought experiment since I know it'll probably never happen in canon. Or it'll happen for a very limited amount of time.
>>282988868Twilight was underage when he fought and Yor is younger than he is, so no.
>>282988868Her past is still a mystery but there have been no hints at her ever being a part of it. When we get a glimpse of teenage Yor it's always with her raising Yuri and the areas they live around look pretty intact.Maybe they just lived in a small village away from the front so the casualties were minimal. Her parents however were probably some of those casualties either directly or indirectly. Else her speech in this page loses a bit of the impact.
>>282989088Here's another page I really like. This time from Twilight's perspective.
>>282989157Crazy that this was a bonus omake in the volume.
>>282988868I assume her parents did.
>>282988805Invested manga readers. You'd be surprised how much of a barrier to entry navigating to a different website, scrolling down, clicking a button, waiting for the page to load, clicking another button, and then returning the next day to do it again is to the average person. The people doing this consistently are going to be the ones that are autistically invested in specific characters.Wait a month or so and then check again. I bet the variety will be even shallower.
>>282988690>pay them back in kindI can't believe Loid is a war criminal
>>282989460He literally is since Franky surrendered to him and he was about to kill a POW.
>>282988722They cute.
>>282989554Franky is the first one who [REDACTED] actually let surrender
>>282989088>Her parents however were probably some of those casualties either directly or indirectly. Else her speech in this page loses a bit of the impact.I always felt that Yor was a bit weasely with her words in this chapter. She says they died during the war rather than in/due to it. That leaves room for them die because of some wartime event, but it also makes it so that they could've died from something else during that time period. She's an orphan during the war either way.Axeman has always been cagey about how the Briar parents died, even from Yuri's flashback-happy perspective, but their death has always been collective. They either died at the same time or extremely close. That'd be no issue if they went the same way Loid's parent(s) did, but Nielsberg seemed mostly unaffected.
>>282989611Yeah, and Loid was about to kill him because he said things he didn't like.
>>282989615There was a panel I was looking to emphasize the state of their living conditions, but could not remember the chapter. It was Yuri pointing at a food stand begging Yor to buy a snack.Only because it made their town look even more normal during the wartime.
>>282989716wasn't that from a recent chapter>recentby recent I mean any time in the last two years...
>>282989716This one? It's from 114. I think this one's interesting because this features Yor talking about not wanting to get caught in an air raid while standing in a town that has most likely never seen an air raid. I guess she could still know about them, though she is rather blase about it.
>>282975598I like Yuri for what he brings to the table with Twilight knowing his secret being the only secret known outside Anya
>>282984128Rietveld
>>282984128hagsniffer
>>282989179Probably just too short to justify anywhere else, though I would've been happy to get this as a short chapter.
>>282984128I wish Melinda was my mommy.
Next week's episode is going to be so good. Please don't fuck up the landing after that strong start.
>>282990242He really should've put it up as a short chapter at least, not just for Loid's reaction but because more of Franky's perspective on the last war got added.
>>282990325
>>282990507she's getting so strong.
>>282971743>The [REDACTED] you knew and were is dead, Happy Birthday Frankenstein! Please tell me somebody gets this reference
>>282990559She's getting bolder by the day.
>>282990594I do>Good God look at the size of him!
>>282990594what's the reference?
>>282990620soon
>>282990753That's Yuri inside her btw.
>>282991500She fucking ATE him?
>>282991727He's in timeout until he learns to get along with Loid.
>>282991727Yuri did the unthinkable. He shrunk down to be even smaller than Chihuahua Girl.
>>282991782I secretly want a chapter of this where Yor forces Yuri to be a good brother-in-law and uncle for once.
>>282992774she kind of did when she insisted he buy something for Anya because she didn't need anything.
>>282992870She didn't even insist that much. He decided to do it on his own.Something that the English translation really flubbed was that Yuri doesn't dislike Anya herself; he sees her as an extension of Loid, who is the real target of his ire. He treats her normally whenever he forgets that.>いやっ落ちつて！こいつはあの姉泥棒の娘なのだ⋯！！>No, snap out of it! This is the daughter of that sister stealer...!!
>>282971743>Not that I didn't already see this coming though. But another 4 week wait after this? Is this the longest break between chapters yet?
>>282995219No, that's still his surprise two month hiatus between October and December last year. But he's taken six week breaks many times before though. Only difference is he announces them now.
>>282972576>>282979740>>282972576>9 NovemberIt's LITERALLY another 9/11 (global version).
>>282989615I think the implication might be that even if they didn't die from a direct assault, they were killed as a result of there being a war at the time. Famine and sickness are exacerbated by the conditions of war, especially in more isolated populations that can be cut off from a supply chain.Or Axeman could make it something to do with Garden anyway because it's still crazy that Yor managed to find and work for them after her parents' death out in bumfuck nowhere.
>>282970465
>>282996342daym
>>282995945You'd think if it was famine, Yor and Yuri would be in really bad shape too, but they're fine, even after their parents are gone.>Or Axeman could make it something to do with Garden anyway because it's still crazy that Yor managed to find and work for them after her parents' death out in bumfuck nowhere.Even if Garden had nothing to do with their deaths, I suspect they had connections to the organization in some way. The fanbook makes it sound like how Yor found Garden is some big clue into her past.Incidentally, I hope Axeman puts out an update to this book at some point. This one only goes up to the cruise arc.
>>282997280>an update to this bookI wish he would but doubt he will. Besides constantly complaining about his burn out in his vent art, the first fan book was made before the anime. After that, SxF became a huge franchise of adaptations and collaborations. Now that the third season is airing, they just announced the sequel to the musical, too.I can't see him putting out another fan book without taking another hiatus because projects keep coming down the pipe for him, and he already struggles to keep his own manga going. A new fan book would require way more input from him than the first one as well.
>>282996342I wish Anya were my daughterwife
>>282997944>burn outI worry about this. SxF makes way too much money to ever get canceled, but that won't save it from going into Axeman-driven hiatus hell. I love SxF, but I hope the recent plot focus is Axeman being realistic about his own limitations and trying to bring it to a close within the next couple years. I think the only thing holding him back is his sudden obstinance over Loid.
>>282970465So, how long until we get Yor pregnant on panel? How many more years?
>>283000981soon
>>283000981Two more weeks.
>>283000981Seriously, though. How likely is it that we will actually get this by the end of the manga?
bruh this shit still going fr lmao
>>283002439fr fr no cap on god
>>283001948Axeman doesn't go out of his way to pander to fans (unless they're idols that he wants attention from). He pretty much does his own thing and then Lin has to twist his arm to get certain things done.I'm sure they're both well aware of what kind of ending is expected of them and what the fanbase is screaming at them for. And that is a happy end with the family accepting each other and the romance between the parents becoming real. That is the cost of this series blowing up far larger than anyone ever expected.If Axeman wants to continue to work in this industry or comfortably watch his idol shows while collecting royalties then he has to give the Forgers at least that. No status quo ending with some vague line about how their "chaotic daily lives will continue" and nothing gets resolved.Redacted plapping Yor and getting her pregnant would just be the bonus to make that ending sweeter for the fans, but ultimately something probably left to the imagination since Axeman is unlikely to go that far. Not unless the manga starts going hard on the themes of parenthood and Redacted becoming the father that he never had. What better way to show complete trust, vulnerability, healing, etc than him going that far with Yor.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3XXeSRBVLTQ
>>283003689I think people are too hard on Axeman. There was never an ending on the table that didn't involve the family becoming real.>That is the cost of this series blowing up far larger than anyone ever expected.Apparently SxF was projected to be big before it even started. I don't remember the exact context, but I remember Axeman saying that the people at Jump were crazy excited just from the premise.
When will Yor's flashback arc start? obviously she didn't became an assasin overnight.
>>283005251I say give it another 2 years. She just got a substantial Garden arc and is currently the most developed character we have. Maybe it'll show up sooner if Axeman decides to pursue that plotline of Twilight getting to know Yor more so he stops being so sloppy at work. It can segue into Yor talking to him about her childhood or something.
>>282989088What chapter was this?
>>283005251>>283005814I'm hoping for late next year, but I realize that's perhaps overly optimistic. If Axeman continues chipping away at the plot, we should be getting it sooner rather than later, but I guess it also depends if it's just a few chapters like Loid's or a long arc like Martha's.
>>28300583591
>>283006105
>>283004717I think it's in an early pre-anime interview, but Lin said something like he really thought the initial premise was good, and the editorial board unanimously liked it once they got their hands on it, too.
>>283006134I like her face in this top panel. It's unsettling, threatening. I think this is more effective than the feral faces Axeman likes to give her.
>>283003689>Not unless the manga starts going hard on the themes of parenthood and Redacted becoming the father that he never had.I think in an untranslated interview that was left out of Eyes Only, he stated that while his fans/anime staff see the story in a more sentimental light, he wants to write something more unsentimental meaning probably comedic in tone which is bizarre no matter how you look at it. You don't get to choose your audience, but the idea that Axeman thought everyone would be more on board with a comedic set-up when he softened the Forgers towards each other and threw out most of the dark comedy elements is insane of him.> What better way to show complete trust, vulnerability, healing, etc than him going that far with Yor.I'm starting to see Yor's reactions to intimacy with Loid as Axeman's reactions to intimacy between the two of them. He seems too embarrassed to go through with it.
>>283008919>he wants to write something more unsentimental meaning probably comedic in toneHe might've gotten to that point, but I don't think that's how he set out. As you said, that's not how he wrote the story originally. I don't want to say it was dark early on, but it's definitely gotten more lighthearted over time. Which is ironic since he is a self-admitted edgelord. Fwiw, outside of bus arc, I think Axeman has been generally good at balancing the light and dark aspects of the story, whether it's what he wants to write or not.>I'm starting to see Yor's reactions to intimacy with Loid as Axeman's reactions to intimacy between the two of them.Axeman drew two characters having sex in I Spy so I have trouble believing that. If you mean emotional intimacy, I think he did a really good job of it with Henderson and Martha. It's not like he can't do either of those. Maybe he'd have trouble with Loid and Yor being confidently romantic and making out in public, but that's not an issue he'd ever realistically have since it's OOC for both of them.
>>283008919>He seems too embarrassed to go through with it.I see that more as him being too afraid to commit to anything. Stalling for as long as possible to avoid touching plot also means the relationships get caught up in it.
>>283009630>If you mean emotional intimacy, I think he did a really good job of it with Henderson and Martha.The doomed relationship?
>>283009936It ending in tragedy doesn't mean it wasn't well written. He just needs to do that again, but without Loid marrying Fiona because he thinks Yor is dead.
>>283010222>He just needs to do that again, but without Loid marrying Fiona because he thinks Yor is dead.This is what I don't get about him writing it at all. Besides reiterating "war bad", he already had Fiona in position who would end up cucking herself because of her cowardly refusal to voice her real thoughts because she's colder than any other character. Making Martha go through the exact same thing is more redundancy on top of that, which makes the whole arc feel unnecessary outside of M99 where Donovan shows up.
>passionate anal sex with Becky
>>283011137>Making Martha go through the exact same thing is more redundancy on top of that, which makes the whole arc feel unnecessaryI don't think the Martha torture porn was meant to be a novel concept. I think Axeman just likes writing this kind of thing. It wasn't supposed to be an arc in the first place.
>>283011230You got confused and meant to say Martha right?
>>283011611How do you know that name!
Someone translated a new Loid and Yor book today. https://exhentai.org/g/3584137/8b0af71ccf/Seems like they're working through all the books by this author so vanillagods will continue eating well. As they should.
Haven't read this shit since like 2021 Did Yor and Loid fuck yet
>>283012571Yes
>>283012587HOOOOOLYYYY BASEDDDDDDtime to pick this back up
>>283012587Loid died from that snu-snu btw.
In the shower too. These two have no self control
>>283012776That's Yuri btw.
>>283012549Cute. Thanks for the heads up, anon.
>>283009630>I don't want to say it was dark early on, but it's definitely gotten more lighthearted over time.I meant that he even threw out the dark comedy set up in everyone's rough draft where the family was all more antagonistic and exploitative. Loid was more cold-hearted, Anya was more petulant, and Yor was more yandere. The setup where they're all assholes who aren't concerned about each other would be better for comedy, but it's not what he went with. I don't think it would've had the same audience either, or even have gotten as big.His final draft for chapter one got rid of all this and leaned into a sentimental tone between Anya and Loid, and continued that between Yor and Loid, and later Anya and Yor. So him clinging to the idea that he can prioritize the comedy is crazy to me when everyone else understands that's not where the appeal is.>Axeman drew two characters having sex in I Spy so I have trouble believing that. If you mean emotional intimacy, I think he did a really good job of it with Henderson and Martha.Both, but hardly anyone knew who he was when he wrote ISpy. Now everyone knows about him and he's putting out one of the biggest currently running manga. He wasn't so stingy about teasing Loid and Yor having a romantic connection early on but they became less prominent as it got more popular.
>>283012834Yuri's yuris are looking a little swollen...
>>283013171
>>283013241>yuri incest with Yuri
>NO LOILOI DONT DO THAT TO MY SISTER, DO IT TO ME INSTEAD
>>283014466Why is he so gay?
>>283015424>you're straight? everyone just assumed you were... you know, because of your obsession with your sister and all that.
a SxF thread without Becky? WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO /a/?????
>>283015587/a/ is now controlled by adult woman fetishists
>>283015647sickos
Posting Yor being cute and enjoying Yor with her fake husband keeps the undesirables away. I mean that unironically. Tourist shitposters can't get a foothold thanks to the shipping circlejerk passively going on because it outs them as newfags.
>>283015765nice
>>283006105Thank you, I'll re-read it
>>283016550Cursed
>>282970465Look at these unelegant people in their unelegant thread try not to be like them children.
>>283016906look at this*unzips*
>>283015550Do you think Chloe would peg Yuri if he asked nicely?
>>283017588if he's lucky.
>>283012961>He wasn't so stingy about teasing Loid and Yor having a romantic connection early on but they became less prominent as it got more popular.As another anon said, I think this is stalling, not shyness. Maybe the manga becoming more popular would make him more afraid to mess up, which exacerbates the stalling issue, but I don't see it making him reluctant to write something he wrote casually before.I do think he waffles on tone, though. More mature aspects like the sexual tilt to Yor and the sad quality to Anya that suggested trauma from the lab were quickly written out to try to make the manga more family friendly. Then he got pulled more towards the middle with the dog and cruise arcs and into grimdark territory with Loid's flashback. It's been a seesaw since then, to the point where it sometimes feels like Axeman is writing for two different audiences.
>>282988644Twilight was a child soldier, Yor is just a psychopath that enjoys killing. She has to justify herself all the time because KNOWS she's a fucked up monster but feels absolute zero remorse for her murders and goes teehee here i go killing again. Meanwhile Twilight is so fucked with guilt he can't even process his feelings
>>283021115She only started killing to feed her retarded brother now she's killing to protect her retarded fake daughter.

>>283009936>The doomed relationshipI hope Yor and Loid don't end up together so i'm happy either way.
>>283021656Fiona...
>>283021345Excuses that she uses to continue feeding her never-ending thirst for blood.
>>283022600This lmao she wonders again why she's still murdering people and is like because of anya i guess?
>>283022600She's not bloodthirsty. That's one of the issues Hemlock has with her. He doesn't even imply this is something that has changed about her, unlike basically everything else.Also you should be more subtle in your samefagging if you want to convince anybody. Thanks for once again giving us stuff to talk about, though, I guess.
>>283023437I don't like him since he's a jobber. They were all made out to be savage fucks but they're goofy losers weaker than Yor. No, I do not like.
Could you still love Yor, knowing that she's working for the nazis and has killed thousands of people with her own hands?
>>283023437He said he used to admired her impliying she was a bloodthirsty killer and now went ",soft". Also you won't convince anyone she has any sort of remorse of moral questioning when she's like teehee my hands smell like blood
>>283021115You are actually retarded for thinking that Twilight feels any guilt about killing when he does and thinks about it casually.
>>282971743What happened to the sex appeal in this manga
>>283024692Yes
>>283024692if she was also used up then it’d be worse
>>283025385Has there even been much of that? All I can think of is the one special illustration of Yor. Axeman usually emphasizes cute over sexy.

>>283019777There's just a clear difference in how he wrote them early on, and it was more believable that their feelings were developing mutually before he decided to pull back. Twilight commiserated with Franky over drinks that they couldn't afford to pursue feelings or relationships because of their work, but now he barely registers Yor within a romantic context. Meanwhile Yor's romantic feelings still get neutralized by her embarrassment gag.I could see it as stalling on Yor's end, but with Twilight it's like Axeman's done a complete reversal, like it's embarrassing to have him acting or feeling vulnerable at all anymore. Same with the way he treats Anya then and now, frankly.
>>283021656Get off the computer, Yuri.
>>283028262nta but Axeman is definitely afraid of changing Twilight too much. His moments of vulnerability and mistakes get swept up too cleanly after a pep talk to himself where he reminds himself of the mission. As for the romantic development Anya stopped teasing her parents about it until only recently and he's convinced Yor doesn't see him that way. Both of these, as well as the lack of chapters that actually feature all of them, slow down that development considerably on his part. You're right that the early aspects of the manga are different compared to what came after it. The fake family thing and the spy content took a hard backseat to endless eden filler. For example, it was established early that Twilight doesn't understand children and that Yor was supposed to be the emotional aspect he lacks so he doesn't traumatize Anya. Working together, learning from each other, and becoming more human in the process. But this only really continued for Yor and chapters that involved Twilight being bad with kids pretty much disappeared outside of awkward cruise arc moments and the "recent" seal chapter. Again, because they're never together and it's nothing but pleasantries like making dinner when they show up for a panel or two at the end of a random chapter.I think that is why Twilight can come across as stagnant or cold to the readers. He is too important to the story, meaning Axeman and his love of status quo is only going to throw out subtle stuff for him. It doesn't help that the image people have of Twilight is being heavily shaped by all the merchandise that makes him a big softie family man. That's not what Axeman wants him to be (yet?) but that's what they're selling him as.
>>283029920Also, I think that the ongoing confusion about Yor leading to him being so sloppy that even his Handler can see it has been pretty well done, but Axeman can't keep putting it off and making Twilight bottle it up. You can forgive Twilight not really changing after the Wheeler arc and not heeding Yor's advice about relaxing more, but his problem continues to exist and it's only getting worse. It would be dumb to continue the status quo in this case.Twilight is long overdue for some self reflection. He needs to confront why he's messing up. Axeman cannot and should not let this mission about observing Yor go nowhere. It doesn't have to be overly romantic either. Just make Twilight more human.

>>282988620Wait is Chloe really beating Fiona in polls?
>>283031958It's because Fiona's linked to Franky. Nobody wants to see that shit.
>>283031958Current poll results are just speculation based on people posting what they voted for to twitter using the website provided template.
>>283032380Oh, was about to say the Japanese finally had good taste.>>283032302Franky is a better character than Fiona though.
>>283031958As of a couple days ago. >>282949508 As the other anon said, it's not fully reliable, but this isn't politics. It's animu. Xitter spyfags shouldn't be that different from other spyfags and most of the results are within a range of what we'd expect.
