Spy x Family Mission 62.2 (Abridged Recap)
Hi everyone! So, Happy Easter to those that celebrate it, and happy new release day as well! So I usually write an abridged sarcastic recap of the chapter but for todayâs chapter Iâm not going to since war, death, losing loved ones isnât something you should ever take lightly, and the fact that this chapters events hit close to home of the current events around the world, so today Iâm just going to give a brief review of this very emotional and impactful chapter and reveals to us the elusive and coveted details about Twilight/Loidâs life prior to Mission Strix.
The first of the bombs have gone off and itâs the beginning of war between two nations and the irony is that the one thing Twilightâs parents warned him about, ended up saving his life in the early stages of the war. While surrounded by chaos and rubble, Twilight is reunited with his mother.
Like many others during a war, people flee from the fighting and relocate, but just like many during war, families are broken apart and some unfortunately never are reunitedâŠ
When you lose loved one, and the world you once knew is now in chaos, thereâs one emotions that comes up stronger than the sadness and that is the anger at the world, at those who instigated the chaos, so thereâs no other outlet than to retaliate back, like Twilight does here and like so many others who end up going to war for their innocent fallen friends and family.
But wars are rarely a one day event, but like a savage beast that slakes away on the thirst of blood and vengeance. Relentless, never ceasing until thereâs nothing left. And thatâs how many of those sucked into the war are like, they are driven to having no choice to fight for reasons that are only known to themselves, for every tooth and nail they fight to survive. For every emotion they feel, the peril of their own lives, the sadness of a fallen comrade, to the the anger and regret of their slained âenemiesâ, they hold onto these moments of emotions as a link to their humanity during the chaos of the war.
While itâs so easy to loose oneself during the war, moments like that, or in Twilightâs case, a miracle of meeting someone so different from yourself during the war can bring you back, and now you can get past the initial state of anger and channel that into perspective and practicality.
Anyway thatâs it, my thoughts while reading. But I do still stand behind my head cannon that since Loid never did see his dad, or heard from him since the beginning, perhaps his dad was captured or part of the Ostanian SSS during Operation Strix, idk Iâd like to see a head to head of Loid talking to his father at least one more time, be it closure for Loidâs past and for saying the things he hadnât have the courage to say to him as a young boy.
