Yozakura Family episode 7 is adapting manga chapter 19 and manga chapter 20. It is almost panel by panel adaptation again. Afterall it is 2 chapter adaptation, so an additional scene is unavoidable.
General Plot
Sui and Oga introduction
The first part of the episode is pretty straightforward. Taiyo needs to save Nanao. When he went to the mission, he meets Hinagiku. It is pretty much what chapter 19 is.
Although they were friend at first the situation turn into the worst when Hinagiku reveal their target is actually to dispatch Nanao (because he is contaminated with the poison). Soon enough Sui defeat Taiyo easily.
Sui defeat Taiyo easily
Fortunately Nanao wakes up before Sui can kill him. Nanao then prove that the poison has already been detoxified by him, providing Sui with the sample. Sui agreed and accept it as a documentation.
Kyoichiro “punishing” Taiyo
When waking up Taiyo find himself being “tortured” by Kyoichiro (in a comedic fashion of course). Although not long afterward Mutsumi and Nanao come and reprimand Kyoichiro for that. Kyoichiro ask Taiyo to clean up Yozakura name by defeating Hinagiku. Thus begin Taiyo mission of “spying a spy”.
Taiyo repeatedly being “defeated” by Sui
Spying on Sui for days, Taiyo finds himself being defeated again and agai each day (with each defeat end up making his clothes blown to shreds). Taiyo however refuse to give up. After this the anime is having an anime-orginal scene (we will talk about that after this).
Taiyo more or less getting an idea of how to defeat Sui after that. Yeah, after that Taiyo confront Sui once more and….manage to dodge his attack (so his clothes not shreds now). That is more or less what happened the same, panel by panel as chapter 20.
Aditional and Changed Scene
I only notice one notable change in the scene.
Taiyo get ideas to defeat Sui
Taiyo apologize to Nano for being weak
This is where Taiyo get the idea on how to defeat Sui. Of course that is by noticing Sui “habit” of slashing. It is different in the manga because manga doesn’t have this scene. It is however a change that is not really has any effect whatsoever. So really i accept it with open arms.
Honest Thought
I really like how they detail this particular scene (just a little detail but thats what we all need i suppose?)
Taiyo training scene 1
Taiyo training scene 2
I like how they added detail like how Taiyo is sweating so much (it honestly makes Taiyo hotter though). I guess this scene can make some fangirls screaming in happiness.
Conclusion
I don’t have any particular problem with this one. It has nice pacing and the adaptation is top notch and very faithful to the manga.
Overall i give it 5/5.
