Review of Spy x Family Season 2
Ah, more Spy x Family bliss. And it gives me exactly what I wanted almost right away. I had thought before we wouldn't get to see much from Yor's side life outside of her retelling some of it. Then this season introduces me to an arc that showcases this side of her first hand and I think to myself "took you long enough!" But I'm glad that was the case, as this build-up allowed her character to shine more than ever when her adventures grew out of the merely anecdotal realm. Yor is the star of the season through and through. I have to say, some ofthe situations presented in this series overall can get a little ridiculous, which can be a difficult comparison to overcome against some of the more realistically portrayed, dark moments. I don't mean comedy moments, more like the out there solutions and overpowered abilities our heroes can have.
But it's in comedy where, once again, it's Spy x Family biggest strength, though I'm aware the reason why I have so much fun with it it's because of the charisma these characters ooze. I'm confident to say, however, there were great, hilarious moments throughout the season.
What I'm getting addicted to is to see this family grow closer and share sweet time together. I thought to myself while watching, sometimes I just wish this was a happy show all of the time. No stakes, no big fights, just the blissful feeling of watching some hardened hearts soften because of a sweet, little child.
Oh, but the action sequences are incredible, a sight to behold, always highly dynamic in the way they're presented and with interesting camera movements, with an animation that has no point to keep prasing it, we all know it's stellar.
OPENING: The least memorable opening out of the three, with an animation sequence that's just as good as the two before. Just look at Loid and Yor do the SpongeBob walk.
ENDING: Artistically, nothing short of a masterpiece. Musically, another banger ending. Let's not lose the tradition of having the most wholesome moments in these endings, please.
