Mission: Yozakura Family Episode 6 highlights: Ayaka Kirisaki confesses her deadly love to Taiyo Asano

Mission: Yozakura Family Episode 6 begins with an anonymous person hacking into Shion's computer to steal Taiyo Asano's pictures. The following day, Shion informs Taiyo and Mutsumi about the same. However, she assures the boy that the hacker hasn't stolen anything sensitive.

Nevertheless, the thought of someone trying to poke into his private life makes Taiyo uncomfortable. On his way to school with Mutsumi, the red-haired protagonist suddenly comes to a halt, as several needles block his way.

Taiyo notices a girl chasing them, so he runs to a nearby alley with Mutsumi. However, the girl quickly dashes into the alley and confronts them. Mission: Yozakura Family Episode 6 then reveals the girl's name is Ayaka Kirisaki.

She confesses to Taiyo Asano that she loves him, and that's why she wants to kill him. Interestingly, Mutsumi Yozakura knows the girl. According to Mission: Yozakura Family Episode 6, Ayaka Kirisaki is a spy assassin, renowned for eliminating anyone she's infatuated with.

The girl tells Taiyo that she has fallen in love with him, after seeing his exploits. In fact, there's a bounty on his name, which is why so many assassins are after him. At that precise moment, a person appears to strike Taiyo but gets immobilized by Ayaka's needles.

On the other hand, Taiyo firmly informs the assassin girl that he's engaged to Mutsumi Yozakura. Ayaka is disappointed but cannot harm Mutsumi because of a promise she made to Kyoichiro Yozakura.

However, instead of targeting the Yozakura's leader, she has been given permission to take down Taiyo by none other than Kyoichiro. Undoubtedly, this infuriates both Mutsumi and Taiyo Asano. Following that, Ayaka leaves the scene, leaving the duo confused.

According to the instructions, Taiyo has to withstand the vehicle. Once he clears the mission, Shion reveals a shocking truth. Apparently, the gamer Yozakura hacks into the system of his target and turns every spy mission into a game, so that she can clear them easily at home.

The vehicle that Taiyo stopped in the game actually halted a runaway train somewhere. After clearing the first game, Shion requests Taiyo to play another. With impressive tactics and unexpected anonymous help from Ayaka, the duo clears the mission.

Mission: Yozakura Family Episode 6 ends with Taiyo Asano ending up playing games (or completing missions) with Shion Yozakura for three nights at a stretch.
