The CODE: White movie is up now on Crunchyroll, both sub and seven different dubs, if anyone has not watched it yet.

It's a good time but I'm not sure where it fits in the timeline

It almost feels like it's an out of order adventure with no timeline implications, but there's some moments between the three of them that could almost work as end-of-anime-adaptation codas

It makes the world feel more alive. Like those cover stories from One Piece showing how everyone elsewhere is doing.

I also love his absurd alarm clock setup. and how much of a chaotic inventor he is.

He and Twilight are like Q and James Bond, but if Bond did not need or want Q's poo poo.

Fun chapter. I'm thinking Frankie saying he's playing with Anya for the money is cope the same way Loid says it's for the mission. Anytime he's with her he's the best uncle.

IMO it's self-evident because Anya wouldn't have fun playing with him if she heard him being miserable in his mind!

Frankie clearly enjoys being a goofy uncle but he has an idea of who he wants to be (essentially Twilight, an unflappably suave man who’s a big hit with the ladies) and it conflicts with who he actually is, an incredibly useful guy to have around and a good guy in his own right, but not the leading man

Well of course Westalis knows he’s a spy; he’s the point of contact for half their operatives. Ostania, on the other hand, might take issue.

He's also doing most of the childcare for Ostania's intelligence apparatus, so there's not much they can do about it.

the idea that everyone knows he's a spy but they all have extremely petty reasons for not turning him in

would you rather trust your kid in a daycare which could be run by deepcover operatives ready to hold them hostage, or the definite enemy who doesn't want to draw attention and will grudgingly look after them while you're torturing prisoners all day

head of national security who buys a coffee from frankie every morning because she doesn't feel like walking an extra minute to the next stand

secretary who would never date him but appreciates the small compliment he gives every time she goes by

office drone whose highlight of the day is seeing his ridiculous hair

assassin who bought poison from him and would feel awkward administering it. claimed job was done

assassin's boss who heard frankie's bondman impression and decided not to inquire further

He's so obvious! He can't be a spy! :thunk:

he thought quoting borges would make him popular
It is completely inconceivable that our all-encompassing web of security services, informants, and even ordinary citizens encouraged to fink on each other at the drop of a hat all could have missed this perpertually-nervous guy prone to loudly blurting out suspicious things, therefore he cannot possibly be a spy.

Now, the baker down the street muttering that the flour shipping into the city these days isn't as good as it used to be, that has to be code of some kind. Or at least highly treasonous. To the flour.

yeah i mean the manga has tried a couple chapters where they at least attempt to go for le carré style grounded tradecraft stuff but i do not think that is scruffy's role, in this particular series.

I could definitely see a more serious "save Franky" arc kind of like the "find the mole before he defects" one.

I knew he wasn’t going to die since there is not a lot of build up of who is he as character besides this chapter. Him dying otherwise would have to signal a massive shift in tone for the story since, literarily, he serves as comedic relief, and there is more backstory that has been hinted at but yet explored.

Nonetheless, I like how that ultimately ends. In the end, he values his own work and friends above his own happiness.
