Mission: Yozakura Family – Episode 11 Recap

The 11th episode of Yozakura Family’s mission kicks off with Futaba dedicating her time to teaching Taiyo how to improve his reflexes. After an intense training session, they make their way back to the mansion, where they are greeted by Mutsumi Yozakura. While tidying up, Mutsumi discovers an album and starts reminiscing as she flips through the pages.

Evidently, the album showcases photographs from the period when Nanao successfully obtained his Spy License. Taiyo, unaware of this examination, inquires about it. Futaba clarifies that a Spy License is comparable to a membership card provided by the Spy Association.

The test is conducted annually and successfully passing it earns a spy not only their license, but also various perks. As revealed in Mission: Yozakura Family episode 11, the Spy License has different levels, ranging from Bronze to Gold.

Upon appearing at the scene, Kyoichiro informs Taiyo that he is eligible to take the test. However, he also cautions him that all members of the Yozakura family have successfully passed the test on their initial attempt, and he does not want Taiyo to bring shame upon their family name.

Continuing on, episode 11 of Mission: Yozakura Family turns its attention to Shion’s room where Ayaka Kirisaki is shown in tears after accidentally causing a glitch in Shion’s computer system.

At night, Mutsumi reads the story of Momotaro to help Futaba fall asleep. However, Mutsumi Yozakura falls asleep after reading only two lines, and Taiyo steps in to finish the story. Futaba expresses gratitude to Taiyo and wishes him luck on the Spy License test.
