Mission: Yozakura Family episode 2 recap
Taiyo Asano recalls the events of the previous day and his engagement with Mutsumi. In the morning at his home, Kyoichiro startles Taiyo with what he calls the infamous Yozakura wake-up call.
Mutsumi prepares Taiyo's lunch bag and school uniform and tells Kyoichiro that she's ready. On her cue, the ace spy grabs Taiyo with his spider strings and jumps out of the window while carrying his sister. At that exact moment, Taiyo's house blows up.
Kyoichiro then reveals to Taiyo the true mission of the Yozakura siblings. According to him, Mutsumi Yozakura is the tenth head of the family. He recounts his family history, explaining how, in every generation, there's someone who is born without superhuman abilities.
Although they don't have powers, their offspring are endowed with incredible skills. Mutsumi is one such person. Kyoichiro states that his sister, Mutsumi Yozakura, is the lifeline of his family and can ensure the continuity of the Yozakura talent.
He also tells Taiyo that Mutsumi will lead the family one day. As such, she must live an everyday life and acquire information about the outside world. Yet, that exposure makes her vulnerable to those who want the Yozakura family's fall.
Suddenly, the episode shows a few vehicles chasing them. However, Kyoichiro, with his expert skills, obliterates them. Following that, he assigns Taiyo to protect his sister from the bomber assassin for a day until he gets back from his duty. At school, Taiyo vigilantly looks out for Mutsumi Yozakura.
However, when his classmates approach him for small talk, he passes out. The next moment, he wakes up at Kyoichiro's office in the school, with Mutsumi beside him. Taiyo notices a bomb planted on the ceiling.
He quickly shields his friend and realizes that a bomb has been planted on his jacket as well. Seeing no other option left, Taiyo jumps out of the window to save Mutsumi. At that moment, Kyoichiro arrives and grabs Taiyo with his spider strings. He tells the protagonist that although he hates him, he won't let a family member die.
After safely pulling Taiyo up, Kyoichiro notices Kengo and Nanao arriving at the office and capturing the bomber, Tamaya. Although he begs for mercy, Kyoichiro hurls the bomb at him.
What to expect in Mission: Yozakura Family episode 3 (speculative)
Since the latest episode covered chapter 2 from Hitsuji Gondaira's original manga series and included anime-original content, Mission: Yozakura Family episode 3 will likely adapt the next one or two chapters. The episode may contain anime original scenes as well.
Fans can expect Mission: Yozakura Family episode 3 to show Taiyo Asano beginning his training at the Yozakura household. He will go to certain lengths to protect Mutsumi. Undoubtedly, the next episode will not only showcase Taiyo's determination but also highlight the Yozakura siblings' harsh training methods.
