Ok I just recently discovered Spy X Family and I FREAKING LOVE IT, Anya is so adorable and I love Yor, Bond, and Loid, although I really do hope that later on in the story they all find out the truth about each other

The Love Story in Todome no Ichigeki (or a TwiYor AU)
I am so normal about the MV.
I would put some of the manga references the director has possibly used at the end, and as usual, manga spoilers would be out after the cut.
1
The story starts with her.
She's just killed a musician and taken over his identity.
This is the first time we see a close-up of her - right as she puts on the first piece of disguise.
The next scene shows a fully disguised assassin, with the sunglasses and the wig, arriving at the stage. She starts her performance.
She has a mission.
And her target has also arrived at the scene with his associate.
As she puts on her jacket and finishes up her final touches, it's all set, and she should be able to get her target.
Unfortunately, she is having a situation.
だから Therefore -
2
She picks up the pair of sunglasses. And she hesitates.
And then, without the wig and the sunglasses, she begins singing part of the chorus:
[Chorus] 今日の夜は隣にいさせて (隣にいさせて) Just for this night, let me be by your side 今夜だけは本気だからね (隣にいさせて) Because just tonight, it’s for real, you know. (1)
And with the line "こっちにきてもっと Come closer to me", she put out the cigar butt and caught his attention.
She goes on singing in her full disguise:
祈りあった未来とて The future that we prayed for 道が違うのよ アナタ And the paths that we walked on have always been different, my dear. (アナタ, give up! Give it up!) (My dear, give up! Give it up!) 互いの殺意で トドメ喰らっちゃうね Our shared urge to murder will deliver the final blow and get us killed. (This is also the part that repeats as the song fades out.)
And once again, she sings without disguise:
やっぱりやめとくわ As I've expected, I should just give up.
3
It cuts to how they meet initially.
From this scene on, we begin to get camera shots that centred on him.
And this is, technically, their first meeting in their other identities. He tried to observe more intently, but she was hidden in darkness despite being placed centre-staged.
And as the second verse (the rap) comes along, she even turns around with her back facing towards him.
The rap verse initially echoes what she's been trying to convince herself: they walk on a path of countless tribulations and seemingly eternal darkness. However, if you search further in this seemingly endless wilderness, you'll find something else.
そこに現れた 心見透かすちっぽけな魂 There appears a tiny spirit that could see right through your heart. それは散らばるミクロ砂金 Like scattered microscopic gold dust. 手のひらに集め If you gathered them in the palm of your hand 密度高め万年を照らす 光の矢を放つ、穿つ Releasing an arrow of light with intensified density, illuminating and piercing through eternity (1)
4
And she wonders if she really can see through his heart and know who he truly is:
こういうのとか Things like this
そういうのとか And things like that
偽物じゃできないよね だから You can't do that if it was fake, right?
In the scenes of them being lovey-dovey, there were time they didn't show the entirety of their faces, and when they were seemingly facing each other, they had their eyes closed.
But she did manage to take his glasses off, took a closer look and even wiped away a drop of his tear.
For at least a moment he showed his true self and his weakness.
And だから therefore - she takes off her glasses, throws away her first disguise on stage, and repeats the chorus:
He slowly realises who she is, and what she's coming after.
He is her target. She's singing to him, and her love is mingled with her intent to kill.
Does she want to stay the night with him because she wants to kill him? Or is it because she loves him?
Or maybe she should have given up the mission a long time ago.
5
Why would she give up?
Maybe she's just getting used to this situation, slowly moving from the edge and starting to find comfort in this new position she’s found herself in.
Or maybe it's that moment when they could look at each other like a real couple.
She tried to look through the camera lens. And what she saw was so different from what had appeared in her mission files.
And he is right here with her tonight.
6
As she removes her last piece of disguise, she says:
もしもどこまでも続くなら [I wonder] if this will continue forever せめて今日の一度だけ At least if it's just this one time we have today it's also fine.
She has the first close-up in which she looks straight into the camera,
and she finishes her final dance moves, destroying the ship.
She stops dancing.
This is finally not a performance for the public. This is a confession for him.
As the performers and the audience try to escape from this sinking ship, she finally reveals the true intention that has been hidden behind her killings:
今日の夜はワタシにさせて Let me be by your side tonight. 今夜だけはワタシに守らせて Let me guard you tonight. 今日の夜が明けたころに When the night passes to dawn, (1) 待ち合わせね we shall meet again. 明日の夜も守れますように I hope I can protect you again tomorrow night.
こっちにきてもっと So come a bit closer to me
Notes:
The gifs both come from here. I base the translations on these three sites: (1), (2) and (3). Thank you, @yumeka-sxf, for helping with the translation.
Someone also uses glasses and a change of hairstyle as disguise:
The tiny soul and the scattered gold in the rap verse so obviously refers to Anya. The sparkling effect used in the MV could also be a nod to the special effect when Anya uses her mind-reading powers.
The sparkling effect appears right from the start, and becomes stronger as her conviction is strengthened.
@_mika60_ on twitter (well, x) has made a thread about other manga references used in the MV.

Song Review: Sierra Hull - “Over the Mountain” (Live, June 15, 2024)
The performances are top-shelf, yet Sierra Hull’s “Over the Mountain” pales in composition.
As captured on pro-shot video June 15 in Vermont, it’s bluegrass through a prism of jazz with a heaping helping of Punch Brothers-inspired esoterica on the side.
A co-write between Hull and Cory Wong, the instrumental is little more than a recurring motif that bridges gaps for fiddle, mandolin and bass solos. The result is more like traversing a switchback than soaring “Over the Mountain.”
Grade card: Sierra Hull - “Over the Mountain” (Live - 6/15/24) - C+
9/5/24
