Mission: Yozakura Family episode 5 recap

Mission: Yozakura Family episode 5 was titled Kengo/Shinzo. While walking down the sidewalk at night, Taiyo Asano confronts a mysterious police officer, who introduces himself as Seiji Hotokeyama.

He takes Asano to the police station and interrogates him about the latest case. Seiji speculates the boy belongs to an organization, so he presses him for his friends' names.

However, Taiyo doesn't give in. It's later revealed that Seiji Hotokeyama is an accomplice of Kyoichiro Yozakura. He covers up the Yozakura family's deeds in exchange for help on his own cases.

The whole interrogation was a trick to see whether or not Taiyo betrays his family, which he doesn't. Later at school, Taiyo appears fatigued from all the training. Suddenly, Kyoichiro arrives to take a class as a substitute teacher.

The ace spy notices Taiyo dozing off, so he hurls a chalk at him, which he easily dodges. Following that, the episode shows a conversation among Taiyo, Mutsumi and Kyoichiro via Morse code.

The spy wants to see whether his brother-in-law can achieve a half-awake state. According to him, a spy must be vigilant even during sleep. Thus, he breaks a vial of sleeping gas in the class, which puts everyone to sleep except Mutsumi.

Seeing Taiyo in a drowsy state, he flings a chalk at him with full force. However, the boy moves in his sleep to evade the attack. Kyoichiro acknowledges that Taiyo Asano has reached the half-awake state.

Later at the Yozakura mansion, Taiyo reads a spy journal and finds out that there's a high divorce rate among spy couples because they can't give time to each other. He feels obliged to ask Mutsumi on a date.

However, Seiji calls him at that precise time and assigns a mission, where he has to secure illicit guns from a couple at an amusement park. Interestingly, Mutsumi accompanies the boy on this mission, but the operation becomes a dating opportunity for Taiyo and Mutsumi.

Finally, after a long hurdle, the red-haired protagonist locates the suspicious couple and completes his assignment. After that, he rides the Ferris Wheel with Mutsumi and gives her a rose. The episode ends with Mutsumi and Taiyo finally having a moment to themselves.
