Twitter user “Tom (@lortomo1)” became a trend recently after posting two stills from the eighth episode of the anime SPY x FAMILYwhich show “the alleged way in which China censored the blood on Yor Forger’s face“. The alleged censorship changed the color of the blood from red to white, causing her post to trend on Twitter due to the fact that the white liquid resembles “something else.” However, there is something that needs to be made clear, the censorship is completely false and the user is distributing false information to gain likes.
The alleged censorship is evidenced as false due to the fact that the broadcast of SPY x FAMILY began several weeks later in China after passing review controls, recently airing the fifth episode. I mean, the 8th episode hasn’t even aired in China! In this regard, the user wanted to defend himself by saying that “had access to certain episode leaks“, which ended up being another total lie when it was confirmed that the alleged censorship comes from a meme shared on the Weibo social network.
There, the userTom’s backyard” shared the images as a joke, and a second publication wrote: «It seems that someone casually published this edit, but a group of people took it seriously. Guys think a bit, use your head, SPY x FAMILY has barely aired until the fifth episode here». Turns out the viral user took this post and biasedly cropped it to go viral by sharing misinformation.
Of course, he has been sharing texts like “if this is wrong please let me know“, but has been intentionally ignoring all responses letting him know. After all, it seems like it’s always more important to earn likes than to share truthful information. The first part of SPY x FAMILYwhich covers the first twelve episodes, has been broadcast since April 9 in Japan, while the platform Crunchyroll handles its distribution in the West.
Sinopsis de SPY x FAMILY
For the agent known as “Twilight”, no order is too high if it is for the sake of peace. Operating as Westalis’ master spy, Twilight works tirelessly to stop extremists from unleashing a war with neighboring Ostania. For his latest mission, he must investigate Ostanian politician Donovan Desmond by infiltrating his son’s school: the prestigious Eden Academy. Thus, the agent faces the most difficult task of his career: getting married, having a child and playing family.
Twilight, or “Loid Forger”, quickly adopts humble orphan Anya to play the role of a six-year-old daughter and prospective Eden Academy student. As a wife, she meets Yor Briar, an absent-minded office worker who needs a fake partner to impress her friends. However, Loid is not the only one with a hidden nature. Yor is actually the deadly assassin “Thorn Princess” and for her, marrying Loid creates the perfect cover. Meanwhile, Anya is not the ordinary girl she appears to be; she is an esper, the product of secret experiments that allow her to read minds. Although she discovers her true identities, Anya is thrilled that her new parents are cool secret agents! She would never tell them, of course. That would spoil the fun.
