    Did anyone read the Breaker/Breaker: New Waves from ~15 years ago? It ended in ~2015 unresolved. Well the author/artist pair finished all their other projects and revived it as a Webtoon.

    I remember really appreciating the fights and combat in this. I fell off of it at some point, cool to hear it might get resolved.

    Getting Big Boss to narrate your survival skills lessons is always a good idea

    They got David Hayter to do the narration?!

    Akio Otsuka is the JP narrator and Rin's grandfather and also voices Big Boss and like everyone in Metal Gear who has Snake as part of their codename.

    I didn't know he was Big Boss, I only recognized him as ALL FOR ONE

    Which made it incredible all the same

    When is that expected to happen

    Right Stuf/Nozomi Entertainment did a Kickstarter to do a dub for the Dirty Pair TV series, and they are estimating Blu-Rays to be shipped out to backers sometime August-September this year. There is an exclusive period of I think six months to ensure all backers have received their orders and there are no issues before they will go on sale for anyone to purchase.

    Spy x Family 5. 10/10 as always, details:
    ELEGANT is not just a walking meme, but also has his pride as an educator. Which means not letting an asshole get away with mistreating a child, specially when said asshole is only there because of neopotism.

    They passed. Yay!

    Franky planning all of this shit while drunk is...kinda impressive.

    That airplane sequence was great, it does give a sense of scale.

    Lloyd being mortified of having to LARP this thing in front of all his coworkers is kind of adorable.

    WAKU WAKU. The action sequences were top. Specially vs Yor, Yor almost pastes Lloyd, but she was too drunk to keep going.

    Anya decides that her biggest hero is not the cool spy, but the dad. Awwwww.

    Next episode, to Eden! And going to see:
    SMUG ANYA in all her glory.

    I thought the most technically impressive action shot was when the fanboy agent does that flying jiujutsu grapple, takes Lloid ddown ot the ground, Lloid kicks out of it, and then the agent gets pasted by a dodgeball

    like the Yor action sequence was also great, but that one shot was one of the most technically impressive I've seen in a TV anime in a very long time for a moment that barely registered in manga format

    I found this post that low key explains how Franky is a menace:
    Honestly I completely get why Franky is such a fucking menace.

    Imagine. Imagine you have a cold bastard bitch of a friend who got a stick so far up his ass he wouldn’t show an emotion to save himself???

    and THEN he gets this tiny adorable human being to be his *fake* daughter! And you see him literally going to the moon and back for her, all under pretense that “it’s for the mIsSiOn”. And because you are his friend, you just KNOW this bitch is lying to everyone, god, and himself.

    so OF COURSE, because you want mayhem and eternal embarrassment of your friend, of COURSE you push and prob at him, just to find out where his limits are.

    And it turns out, there’s literally no fucking limits, no fucking length to which your cold and emotionless all-business friend would not go just to?? JUST TO WHAT??? to make this tiny human of a *fake* daughter smile. So she has fun! wHAT??? it takes just ONE KID to turn your ice cold friend into a puddle on the floor. That scene at their house when Franky baits Anya to beg her papa for a castle. It takes literally 0.05 seconds for Loid to cave. God it’s so painful it’s so hilarious

    You just see that poor asshole of a friend descending into the deepest depth of fatherhood without even realising just how much he 1) fits the part 2) enjoys being the best dad, all while embarrassing the heck outta him.

    God. GAWD. I too would NOT miss an opportunity to watch your lonely, repressed, stressed friend be happy under the meter thick veneer of mortification.

    tldr; I love franky in ep5

    Also, some criticism that I've seen and why they are dumb:

    1) "Is a filler episode". OMFG, is called character development you big doofus.
    ") "Is not a REAL comedy anime without background drops and BIG JAPANESE LETTERS". In other words, tacky, tasteless and not elegant.

    I'm hoping Spy X Family does something with Yor soon because, as Loid said, I can't tell if she's actually dumb or not.

    Her being portrayed as just incredibly naive, despite being a literal assassin, is kinda irritating. I mean on Loid's end, her combat prowess should obviously be pretty suspicious - but the fact that she just kind of shrugs off all the weird shit that goes on around Loid strains credulity.

    I think the problem is that good anime dads tend to die, while bad ones stay around forever. Moms of both types have a pretty equal (high) death rate.

    I would like it a lot more if it took the espionage side a little more seriously. Not like, deadly seriously, but I feel like you could at least do stories kind of like... I don't know, Leverage, Hustle or similar. Even Detective Conan is less silly cartoonish. But that's very decidedly not what the series is aiming to be.

    Has there ever been a Good Anime Biological Dad- Wait, Papa Elric from FMA:B. Maybe some of the dads from the Ghibli films (I'm thinking at least Tatsuo from My Neighbor Totoro)?

    ETA: I forgot: Papa Shirogane from Love is War, maybe Ichigo's dad from Bleach?
