Loid: "Engaging with my family at this point might be more damaging to my health..."
Also Handler looks good in that nurse outfit, give her an entire episode to cosplay!
Yes, Fiona does not want to be carried by Twilight, because it was liable to actually kill her instead of Wheeler lol.
I love how she even did a higher-pitched voice as if she was aging herself down a few years. A woman who can pull off any outfit/voice, and can't help but enjoy that part of the job.
Does anyone know if that music is a full song? Or was it just that small snippet?
But it's fitting that she got her own boss music for the beatdown.
It’s funny Loid can survive the deadliest of missions, take on a whole squad of armed agents, is an absolute master spy but trying to unwrap the mystery that is Yor is too much for him. His brain glitches whenever he tries lol.
I liked that post credit. Giraffe Bond, elephant Bond, tiny Bond… so many cute Bonds! I hope we get another season soon. I need my SpyFam fix, man.
If only Bond can talk, he'll be the only one that Loid can have an understanding within the Forger family lol
Loid: "I feel that, Bond."
[](#womanlytears)
But you know who actually got princess carried in season 2? Exactly, Fiona would be so mad if she knew. The way he carried Yor versus her...
She probably could have still used that dislocated leg as a weapon too, if she had to.
EDIT: Fiona didn't realise that, if she kills Yuri and Yor leaves Loid, she gets to be the wife.
Which, considering how far we've come and how popular the series still is, basically feels like a promise for more SpyxFamily.
2022: S1 part 1 and 2
2023: S2 and Movie
2025: S3
Fiona slams him with her dislocated arm
Yuri did notice the arm but Twilight disguised it
Yor and Lloyd moment ❤️
Season4 please 🙏
A long day at work was a severe understatement. Loid had never been that knackered before in Yor's eyes. I love her words to him about allowing her to rely on her more. They were acting like genuine spouses.
It really hurt going past the credits and just seeing a "See you next mission" message instead of an actual "Next mission" preview. Wishing hard that a Season 4 announcement will eventually come.
It's funny how the ladies trying to do stuff for Twilight ended with them all worse for wear compared to him. Yor trying to decently cook is literally yet another fight she must contend with as an assassin lol.
Honestly now I imagine Sylvia as a bit of a spy wingwoman just enjoying needling Fiona about her crush and I'm here for it.
As for [this finale episode... it was really fun](https://imgchest.com/p/qe4gqzwdr7j)! [Fiona](https://imgchest.com/p/o24a6djp3yl) stole practically [every scene she was in](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/bd56bef8bbb6.png), and[ Loid's reaction](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/281a5b2b7cd4.png) when [Yor revealed](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/e6977f9dbd7f.png) why [she'd been acting so strange lately](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/7fcdf0995f1a.png) made me laugh out loud xD
It's a good thing Loid decided to hide [the gunshot wound](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/f5a36b62bab0.png), otherwise Yuri would have discovered his identity as Twilight. [He really can't find peace](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/65a5e8760797.png) when dealing with [Briar's siblings](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/63385854fe00.png), whether it's [Yor](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/316393b6fc85.png) or [Yuri](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/3483fcf2f53e.png) xD
It was [nice to see Handler](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/d959c5e9536a.png) today; [she looked really nice in a nurse outfit](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/ee87d2add56a.png)! [Fiona's reaction](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/891a30ee02bb.png) to Handler knowing about her feelings for Loid was hilarious xD
[Bond did a pretty good lion imitation](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/41984251a2cb.png), though [the elephant](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/94a9dd945452.png) and [giraffe](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/f993092faf61.png) didn't turn out so well, as did Yor's attempt to help him, which ended with [an alpaca](https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/ec9bd5cbefd4.png) xD

*EDIT. I added my screenshot albums.*
We got the usual balance of comedy, SoL hijinks, along with contending with terrorists, cat-and-mouse spy games, and traumatic childhood backstories. We even got more Fiona and Sylvia this season, got to see Yuri get really beat up and kicked out by his sister, which is always a win.
I love how Master Spy and people reader Loid still can't read Fiona but his boss can which I guess just goes to show why Sylvia is the GOAT. Especially hen she cosplays.
That moment honestly got me really scared. With how the show blends its comedic and serious moments I really thought they might have ended the season on a sad cliffhanger.
and speaking of her, she had some great moments in this episode, from beating that guy while her body was in broken, to her getting carried by Loid and then the hospital scene. also loved Handler showing up in a nurse outfit!
another great season and hopefully season 4 isnt too far off
Ayaneru really did such an amazing job capturing her ruthless stoicism, unhinged transformation, and maiden in love freakouts in this episode.
Handler has a nice nurse outfit and deserves to be more in the hospital too!!
He is soooo in love, he just doesn’t know it yet
Lady, you work at a SPY agency. Your boss can probably pick up hints that you didn't realise you were dropping.
Sylvia: "I honestly feel like I trained him better than this, but watching his obliviousness and her obviousness is too amusing."
[](#smugkaguya)
He may have some gaps in his observational skills.
The boring answer is just that he has a unique blindspot just for Yor but perfect analysis of everyone else.
Lucky for Wheeler that Loid wakes up just in time to save him from getting possibly headbutted to death by Fiona. He's still too much of an asset to take out at this point. And also lucky for Fiona that Loid is still convinced she's an ice queen who is constantly questioning his methods and efficiency, lest he have really overheard her basically declaring her love.
Marital problems! Loid has truly become a family man! Every husband has, at some point or another, found they have no idea what they're wife is thinking. Even if he's rationalizing everything for the mission, he's slowly thinking more of Yor as Yor instead of as "Yor Briar" the asset. And Fiona is really eager to become a homewrecker if her wounds weren't holding her back.
All that fuss and it turns out that Yor was just drunkenly spurred on by her catty co-workers. Is it any surprise that Loid just collapsed from sheer exhaustion and realizing of the nonsense he has to put up with?
Though I guess if anything good came out of it is Yor expressing her sincere desire for Loid to open up to her and rely on her, so she can pay back all he's done for her and let her take care of him. Even if he can't ever let up on any front, because he's seen Wheeler's strength and he has to keep himself enough on his toes to always avoid detection. Even if that means hiding a bullet wound from his suspicious brother-in-law.
Wow, Fiona really fell down a lot of stairs, huh? Luckily she's got everyones' least favorite doctor and everyones' new favorite nurse Sylvia to take care of her! Sylvia needs her agents back in the fight as soon as possible to give their all (but maybe not TOO hard), and she also wants to enjoy cosplaying as a nurse (which she looks amazing as) and tease Fiona about her feelings for Twilight. She knows she's as adorable as the audience does.
Yor may not be a domestic goddess, but if she "battles" a cookbook and gets extensive battle damage, she CAN make something teensy-weensy edible!
Bond isn't about to lose to "King of Feet" Mr. Lion or other zoo animals! He can transform too! Even if he ultimately just ends up being an alpaca! But who wouldn't want to look silky smooth after being brushed by Yor? Franky sure wouldn't, even if it might improve his chances with the ladies. And how much more nonsense can Loid put up with?
Is there anything more beautiful than a childs imagination? With the ability to create a parade of Bond animal transformation she can dance and go Waku-Waku over? And Loid gets to see his family all napping happily, as we close off on the Forger Family once more...until the next mission.
I love that this is the 2nd time we’ve seen Loid nearly faint due to relaxing, and this time to Yor’s smile greeting him at the door.
Great season, honestly forgot this was the last episode and the “Next time: !” Clips at the end just feel like salt in the wound knowing there isn’t an episode next week. Hopefully season 4 is a quick turnaround.
Loid: "Is this what they call...happy life, happy wife?"
I guarantee if Twilight ran into Yor and they weren't married (say if Fiona got her way before he "found" Yor) he'd clock her as Thorn Princess pretty quickly.
And what happens if Yuri finds out that is older sister is a high level assassin.
However, what is truly impressive is that despite her injuries, she is still thinking of how to replace Yor in Operation Strix. As well as keeping up her nonchalant personality on the surface despite being very happy at being carried by Loid. Lol!
Sylvia knows everything. No wonder she is the handler.
She's probably one of the most dedicated homewreckers of all time even if her obsession with defeating Yor might be the only reason her body came out as surprisingly intact as it did.
This definitely changed my mind about her! She’s a great team member to have Twilight’s back. The crush thing even though I support TwiYor strongly is just cute now. I like her more now and don’t see her as overly extra.
I love how this show gives each person a story and development. Can’t wait for it to be the handler’s turn!
Likewise, I agree with you too!
Fiona, Franky and Yui may have been seen as gag characters with certain archetypes attached to them during their initial appearances, but all of them have since gotten character development and their respective history revealed.
This season was most plot dense after S1 part 1. It covered three different major arcs: Loid’s backstory, Red circus busjacking and Mole hunt arc. Looking forward to S4!!
Yor being genuine to a fault is probably what allows Melinda to somewhat let her guard down around her.
Y'know it's funny, everytime a new Season of Spy x Family airs I go browse the fanfictions to see what people cooked up with the setting, mostly for future Anya/Damian or identity reveal Loid/Yor stuff. But this time I was surprised to come across a recently updated relationship tag: Yor/Melinda. I was like "what the hell I hadn't even imagined it" but never one to turn down Yuri I dove in to see what's the appeal.
Holy shit it's peak lmao, especially when it's canon compliant actually. The one-sided yearning and angst from Melinda combined with period attitudes regarding proper social conduct between women, between high and middle class, etc. Holy shit it's delicious, I wonder how I missed the opportunities! Mfs are definitely visionaries.
Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
>Every season Donovan becomes more and more sus. Like dude embodying every bad stereotype there is about 1950s/60s masculinity lol.
Ever since Loid and Donovan's exchange at school with Damian basically getting ignored I knew I just couldn't like that guy. It's honestly a miracle Damian is a good of a kid as he and he must take after his mom. At least this season we learned that Becky's dad loves her.
I wonder if they also have a problem balancing the tone when Thorn Princess is an assassin so thorough she doesn't even wear a disguise because where she passes there is no one left alive to tell the tale? The objective of her missions most of the time would just be "kill X and everyone in your way", which is limiting compared to Twilight's "spy on X", "get Y document", etc. The only exception was her being a bodyguard in the Cruise Arc.
Anyway please more Yor and don't have her be so simple please...
Ironically her best development has come from something not to do with her work as an assassin, which is her civilian relationship with Melinda.
Oh...I figured the fight was done, but I guess not. You know you are screwed when the person you are fighting suddenly gets her own badass soundtrack to kick your ass to.
I chuckled when Nightfall became excited about being Princess-carried. Oof...I...I don't think that is how you carry a princess.
Handler in a Nurse's outfit...yes please.
Lloyd shutting the door on whatever new hijinks that are going on with Frank and Yor, and Anya.
Overall decent season. If I have any complaint its that it sort of felt like the different characters were silo'ed into there own stories independent of one another. When I sort of feel like the show is at its best in arcs where there is more interaction between the three characters.
[Good to see that Crunchyroll can still do typesetting.](https://i.imgur.com/K9usBnH.jpeg) I do love seeing Fiona trying to keep it together when Loid carried her fireman-style. If that was a princess carry, I bet she would've fainted on the spot.
[Yuri was so close to catching Loid.](https://i.imgur.com/J0dizES.jpeg) Too bad for him, Loid is a god when it comes to fake skin, and [he made sure to cover the wound up.](https://i.imgur.com/aOalUbv.jpeg)
[Sylvia looks absolutely perfect wearing a nurse's outfit.](https://i.imgur.com/dpwTWtZ.jpeg) And I just love how much [she's into it too!](https://i.imgur.com/HDnM2nj.jpeg) I'd love to have Sylvia nurse me back to health.
Well that was a cute note to end on! [We have Anya and Yor having a little bit of mother and daughter time](https://i.imgur.com/FIt1HrL.jpeg), and we even [get to see Anya's dream about Bond as different animals.](https://i.imgur.com/qGS2oT8.jpeg) Instead of ending with the spy thriller part of the show, [we end with a lovely slice of life scene.](https://i.imgur.com/zIZGp36.jpeg) <3
Ayaneru voices the best freakouts.
This was not Yuri's day! Fails his mission. fails to catch Twilight, gets savagely beat up, and kicked out by his beloved sister and forcing him to go back and do paperwork. Couldn't have happened to a more unhinged siscon.
Sylvia's been through some @#%\^ but I'm glad she can still enjoy cosplaying and teasing her agents about their love lives.
Congratulations Twilight! Thanks to Operation Strix, you can finally experience again what it's like to be in a cozy SoL anime instead of a war one! Even if you feel you still need to re-dedicate yourself as an agent, your family will always be there for you. Including Anya, who basically watched an arc recap by reading your mind lol.
You have to admire Fiona. She has the motivation I wish I could attain.
Daddy down 😩
If we take away the political circumstances and blood and stuff, oh to be a person who could tie up Wheeler and his biceps.
>My wife
Don’t mind me, I’m just delusional and screaming.
*Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah*
*AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH*
My my, what a feast for the eyes you are, Loid.
Oh my god, how the fuck did you start a fire with an iron 😭
Fiona’s head was made for patting.
Bond is so adorable. I want to buy a fluffy plushie of him.
It’s such a small thing, but I love seeing hair care as a bonding thing between friends, siblings, pets and owner, caregivers/parents and kids, and lovers. I can’t explain why, but it’s such a soothing, connecting experience.
Give Franky a silk press and have him do the iconic Homura Akemi hair flick 💅🏾
As someone who has *big* hair when I don’t have braids in, it is shocking that me having my hair out has people not recognize me. Hairstyles really fuck up perception.
After credits were so adorable, I want to scream.
***
Yor’s “gripe” about wanting to take care of Loid and be more reliable, and feeling happy Loid aired a complaint to her, that’s so beautiful. And it’s very relatable.
Granted, I don’t ***think*** my friends nor their partners are spies and assassins—and I hope they never tell me if they are, leave that shit for your death bed—but I’ve seen this sort of hurdle before with them: a partner is pretty much an all-rounder, does it all themselves, avoids complaints and conflicts. And their reason is that:
* it’s much easier for them to do it themselves
* they want to maintain the peace
* this is how they show they care
* they grew up in an environment that sort of shaped them into taking charge of the chores, etc.
But it can be frustrating for the other partner!
Of *course* it seems on the outside that someone has it good when their partner does it all. And it works for some people too, can’t discount those successful relationships. But, without proper communication, it can be uncomfortable and make some people question what their role is within their dynamic, what they have to offer.
*That* is a valid issue to have.
But it doesn’t help that some people view that sort of relationship as a goldmine, so why complain and ruin it? Your partner does the laundry, the dishes, cooks, cleans—you should be grateful! How dare you not be happy with such a dream! I wish *my* marriage was like that!
**Everyone has different needs, wants, and comfortability with a relationship dynamic.** Everyone has different ways of receiving and *giving* care and consideration. People should communicate and navigate that as needed. Which sounds like common sense theoretically, but it’s a lot harder in practice, especially when your formative years were messy 😅
I’d be like Yor, I think. I’d love my partner for all they do, but I’d still be wanting to also have the opportunity to take care of them and be reliable for them. I won’t stop them if they like cleaning the litter boxes for the cats or deep cleaning the car. Do your thing 😂 That’s something I will love you even more for. But I want to take care of you too. How can I do that? What’s a way for all of us to be comfortable and happy in how we do things in our household and in our partnership?
Let me take care of you too, dammit!
Yor is pretty relatable (to me) here. Relatable queen 💃🏾
By Wheeler: Once
By Yor: Twice
Sasuga Yor san
Fiona with her power of love almost wrecked herself in the process, but she was really badass and absolutely destroyed Wheeler both physically and mentally.
Well, Loid was already tired but after hearing the reason behind Yor's 'complaint' which is troubling him the whole day, he just couldn't believe it and collapsed, lol.
Yor being happy that Loid finally asked for her help even if she wasn't dependable enough since this is what she wanted in a way and Loid thanking her for those words was a really wholesome scene.
Expect Yuri to always barge in these kind of moments. It was funny how Loid instinctively got up as soon as he entered. It's a good thing Loid took precaution and managed to hide the wound, otherwise it was over.
WISE is having staff problems since Loid and Fiona are off for the day and so the Handler has to step in as a Nurse (she also wanted to wear the uniform) and she also knows about her cute subordinate Fiona's feelings. Her reaction to that was hilarious.
Well, the final moments with Anya and Bond and the post-credit scene were kinda cute.
EDIT: Also, the [Insert song](https://x.com/spyfamily_anime/status/2004926744407814445) that played during when Fiona was smacking Wheeler has been released on digital streaming platforms and should be available once it's 28th December in your region - [NexTone Link](https://t.co/w38hH9BAYI)
Really felt like this mission is the most peril we’ve seen Loid in. Hope WISE’s mole getting caught doesn’t put them in more danger.
Fiona MVP though, she almost looked like Yor there
I cannot stop laughing when Bond tried to be an elephant
But as a SOL enjoyer, the moments at the end of the episode are the ones I enjoy most. Just doing everyday silliness. Hope if we get more seasons, we get more of those moments
Hopefully we won't have to wait too long for a new season, but from what I understand we are starting to catch up to the manga so perhaps they will wait to get a bit of a buffer...
What a season this was!
Amazing season as always! Cannot wait for more. Guess we're looking at 2027 at the earliest for S4?
The Loid and the Yor reconciliation was really sweet, which is funny since it was a fake fight they entire time.
That was a very pink elephants on parade after credits bit. White bonds on parade?
Very fun season.
Wheeler is gonna be traumatized for the rest of his life.. that's for sure 😭😭
I guess all those hard training in the mountains to become stronger than Yor really paid off in the end for Fiona. This was her day really. She also got carried by Loid like a princess. I wish Loid heard everything that she said about her thinking of him so much.
And the Handler knows how cute Fiona's one-sided love is 😄❤️❤️
The handler is into nurse cosplay lol
Thank God Yuri left quick. You can never be too careful around him. The thing that even Loid wouldn't anticipate and get stressed out is what his wife is thinking 😂🤣
Yor after a number of trial and error finally made somewhat a decent breakfast..😅😅
Lovely post credit scene ❤️❤️
Anya's sweet dreams of Bond, haha.
Loved this season of Spy family so much. I'm gonna miss these peaceful yet exciting and daring Saturdays.
Can someone tell me from where can I read the manga after ep 13?
My favorite arc this season was the Red Circus, but if I had to choose my favorite moment it would be Loid meeting Franky for the time during the war. I'd argue without that meeting Loid wouldn't have become the man who fights for peace that he is today.
