My Opinion of Mission: Yozakura Family

Before I get into it. How did I find this anime? You won't guess it. Its from an Instagram reel. I'm sure there are lots of us that have decided to stream arcs of anime just because of that one edit. If there is one thing I can say about The Yozakura Family it's that it has a blend of comedy, thrill, drama and its is one of the most abstract yet somewhat realistic anime I have come across since I started.

My favourite character in this anime is Taiyo Asano. Yes he's the main character and all but I don't think that's why he caught my eye. In typical living, losing your entire family almost always pushes one off the cliff mentally. But for him he handled it differently. He didn't let the event turn him into a villain, as a matter of fact no matter how scared he was he still saw hope ahead which is a whole lot.

This anime prompts family, close and general happiness. There were many times Taiyo would have lost hope or maybe given up on moving forward but Mutsumi was always there for him and that's actually really sweet if you ask me.
I've been rambling on about Taiyo since I started writing, well let me introduce you to the other main characters Mutsumi Yozakura, Futaba Yozakura, Shion Yozakura, Goliath, Shinzo Yozakura and Kengo Yozakura. These are basically The Yozakura Family. They’re a spy family, each born with unique superpowers—except for the family head, who, ironically, is the one they all rally behind.

Each character is a reminder that even the strangest, most broken people can be worthy of love and belonging. They’re exaggerated, yes, but also achingly real in their desire to protect what little they have left of each other.

The series stars Taiyo who used to be fragile and only clung to his best friend Mutsumi after the death of his parents. Little did he know his world was about to change in a matter of minutes. He found out Mutsumi was from a spy family and she was in line to be the family's head and to make it more thrilling there were people from the underworld out to get her. So everyday was literally from one dangerous situation to another. He ended up having to marry her so he'll not be targeted by her older brother they did go through quite a ton together [Taiyo and Mutsumi] but ut made them grow closer and they had a beautiful wedding reception in the end.

If you’ve ever felt like you didn’t belong, if you’ve ever grieved someone too hard to speak about, or if you’ve ever found family in unexpected places, Mission: Yozakura Family will hit home.It’s not just a story about spies. It’s a story about healing, about the people who refuse to give up on you, and about the kind of love that doesn’t demand perfection—only that you show up and try.

And sometimes, that’s enough.
