optimistic, but realistic

Henry's first recorded "𝓔𝓵𝓮𝓰𝓪𝓷𝓽."

oh well,

These "non main plot" related arcs do hit me in the chest. The anti-war sentiment is conveyed poignantly and consistently throughout the series. I think it is important to dedicate chapters to one of the key messages of SxF. The stark juxtaposition between the (mostly) wholesome and funny daily lives of the Forgers and the suffering the adults experienced in the past. These chapters serve to shows us the history we (and characters) shouldn't repeat. It adds to why we and the characters should be invested in the lofty mission of "world peace", because war / conflict is a horror that affects everyone and permeates through basically the entire cast. From our leads to side characters like Millie. Yes, the tone of SxF is generally cheerful, but it sobers up appropriately to remind us of the traumas these characters have experienced, and yet kindness persists in a post-war world (or inter-war period).

Regarding the theme of education and its affect on the young, I liked how Endo showed Eden during wartime in contrast to the period of relative peace we've always seen at Eden (with underlying tensions, of course). Staff and students receiving unfortunate news about their family and having to continue with their day. Hiding in shelters. Henry trying to teach young kids who sleep in his lessons. Martha's despair over her dreams being shattered by the war and her resolve to protect. Henry and Martha aren't kids anymore, but they're still young, fresh graduates from a privileged school who jump into society (and are forced to participate in the war). It gives us a haunting vision of what life could be, and makes us appreciate that Anya and the kids don't have to deal with this at the moment.

(wipes tears) oh haha what a silly new chapter huh!!! :,D

martha's reaction in chapter 96 makes more sense now...

HUHEGAH (explodes

@nepturi what do you thinkg

SpyXfamily UPA style! I had a lot of fun making this.

SPOILERS (Spy Family Manga)

Just a normal day with a bunch of six-year olds following you.

haven't done one of these in a while KSDFJKSD

Bowel discomfort has become one of the longest running gag in SxF

And it has been used as one effective excuses everywhere.

Twilight has been doing it first (iirc)

And of course as a kid who copy her parents, Anya has learned about the efficiency of the excuse and has said it

Damian also has used it in such a dire situation

Even a veteran class assassin such as McMahon also has use the same tactic

And for those who has watch the movie Code White, Endo himself has created an OC to be played out by the anime team, and at the most beautiful animation scene at the movie nonetheless (a bit too long for my taste but still hillarious).

Behold, the God of Poop himself

(Credit to @yumeka-sxf for her post here)

So we get it. It's a common thing in SxF.

But, please Endo..... for the love of heaven, DO NOT make Yor spit out ANY of these kind of jokes or excuse or whatever. Nope. No. Just no.

Please, Endo. I'm begging you.

Also the fact that EVERYTHING that happens in the movie revolves around the fact that Loid doesn't want their mission to end... :,)

That one scene from the movie

this line delivery is everything
