Upon discovering a girl pursuing them, Taiyo and Mutsumi seek refuge in a nearby alley. However, the girl swiftly follows them and confronts them. In Mission: Yozakura Family Episode 6, it is revealed that her name is Ayaka Kirisaki.

In a surprising twist, Ayaka Kirisaki reveals to Taiyo Asano her love for him and her desire to end his life. It is worth noting that Mutsumi Yozakura is acquainted with Ayaka. As seen in Mission: Yozakura Family Episode 6, Ayaka Kirisaki is a skilled spy and assassin known for eliminating those she has feelings for.

Ayaka’s needles immobilize the person who appears to strike Taiyo at that precise moment. The girl confesses to Taiyo that she has developed feelings for him after witnessing his feats. It becomes clear that there is a reward for Taiyo’s capture, which explains why he is being pursued by numerous assassins.

Conversely, Taiyo confidently reveals to the assassin girl that he is betrothed to Mutsumi Yozakura. Although Ayaka is disappointed, she is unable to harm Mutsumi due to a vow she made to Kyoichiro Yozakura.

Although she had the opportunity to target the Yozakura’s leader, she was instructed by Kyoichiro to focus on taking down Taiyo. Naturally, this decision angers both Mutsumi and Taiyo Asano. Ayaka then departs, leaving the two of them perplexed.

Ayaka’s New School

In Episode 6 of Mission: Yozakura Family, the story jumps to the next day where Ayaka Kirisaki enrolls in Taiyo Asano’s school with the intention of assassinating him. She employs her special needles in various attempts to eliminate him, but Taiyo’s spy training proves to be effective as he swiftly avoids them.

Despite Taiyo’s exhaustion from the entire ordeal, Ayaka Kirisaki resorts to a new tactic. She uses her brainwashing needles to turn the entire class into her minions and commands them to subjugate Taiyo.

In the sixth episode of Mission: Yozakura Family, Mutsumi Yozakura arrives and reprimands Ayaka for involving outsiders in the situation. Just then, the assassin who was shown in the previous scene reappears with the intention of eliminating Ayaka.

Despite being saved by Mutsumi just in time and Taiyo’s attempt to immobilize him with his static gun, Ayaka is in disbelief at the lengths Mutsumi went to in order to save her life. She begins to question whether this is true love and finds herself infatuated with Mutsumi Yozakura. However, despite her feelings, she is unable to bring herself to harm Mutsumi.

Shion invites Taiyo to play a game

In episode 6 of Mission: Yozakura Family, the scene shifts to Shion’s room where she asks Taiyo Asano to join her in a game. Mutsumi joins them and mentions how Shion always finds someone to play with.

In addition, she informs Taiyo that they can play the game for five consecutive days without taking a break. Surprisingly, the game Taiyo and Shion are playing seems to be a straightforward one, with the objective of defeating monsters that resemble Kyoichiro.

Taiyo decides to take a chance and faces off against the game’s final boss. He comes across a vehicle that bears a striking resemblance to Kyoichiro within the game.

Based on the instructions, Taiyo must endure the vehicle. Once he successfully completes the mission, Shion discloses a startling revelation. It turns out that the gamer Yozakura hacks into the system of their assigned targets and transforms each spy mission into a game, allowing her to effortlessly complete them from the comfort of her own home.

Taiyo’s vehicle in the game turned out to be the same one that stopped a runaway train in another location. Once they completed the first game, Shion asks Taiyo to join her for another round. With Ayaka’s surprising assistance and Taiyo’s impressive tactics, the two successfully complete the mission.

The sixth episode of Mission: Yozakura Family concludes with Taiyo Asano spending three consecutive nights playing games or completing missions with Shion Yozakura.
