1. Anya
Anya is a very adorable child. Unfortunately, because of her strengths, Anya is considered strange by the orphanage and is often ignored. That was why Anya desperately wanted to be raised by Loid and tried to attract Loid’s attention.
Even though Anya seems to be 4 or 5 years old, the orphanage owner claims that she is 6 years old. Loid needs a 6 year old for his mission. Since the first time she met Loid, Anya looked adorable. His behavior is typical of children. He is naughty, curious, likes to eat, easily sulks, and likes to be pampered. He hopes to be spoiled with “father”.
Unfortunately, Loid doesn’t understand that. Anya’s ability to read Loid’s mind creates funny and silly scenes in this series. Loid often looks shocked when he realizes that Anya reads his mind. But, Anya doesn’t seem to care much.
2. Loid aka Twilight
As the main character of Spy x Family, there is no doubt that Loid is one of the magnets in this series. Codenamed Twilight, Loid is given a mission to approach the president of the National Unity Party, Donovan Desmond.
To complete the mission, Loid must have a family, namely a wife and children. Admittedly, Loid’s physical appearance is one of the main attractions in this series. Visual Loid handsome is certainly very attractive, especially for women. Not only handsome, Loid also loves children. Although at first he only thought of Anya as just a tool to succeed his mission, Anya’s very spoiled attitude towards him gradually changed him.
3. Based on the popular manga
Spy x Family was originally published as a biweekly web manga in May 2022 and quickly became popular. The manga managed to reach the number 1 position at the Next Manga Awards and is at the top of various ranking lists.
With the release of its second official volume, the manga has sold over 800,000 copies. That way, this manga is legitimate to be very popular. The manga is still ongoing, so there’s still a long way to go. The manga was later adapted into an anime by two major studios, namely Studio Wit and Cloverworks. Studio Wit is known for his work such as Attack on Titan. Meanwhile, Cloverworks is the studio behind Bunny Girl Senpai, Horimiya, and My Dress-up Darling. Studio Wit handled the action scenes, while Cloverworks did the slice-of-life. So, this is definitely a great adaptation.
4. The story is interesting and always addictive
Spy x Family is about three people with extraordinary abilities and hiding their strengths from each other.
Loid is a gifted spy sent on a “friendship” mission with Donovan Desmond, a high ranking political figure. For the sake of the mission, Loid must create a “fake” family to infiltrate the same school as Desmond’s children so he can get close to him.
So to complete his mission, Loid must get a talented child to enter the prestigious Eden Academy. While visiting an orphanage, Loid meets a child named Anya. Secretly, Anya has the ability to read minds. Anya immediately knew that Loid was a spy and Anya was very interested in it.
Besides, Loid had to find a wife. Coincidentally, Loid meets a woman named Yor, who is also looking for a husband to cover up her job as an assassin. Because in the anime, women who are over 25 years old but not yet married, then that woman will be suspected of being a spy and will be isolated or removed.
The two of them agreed to cooperate without having to reveal their identity. Attempts to conceal their true identities are both interesting and ridiculous and add tension to everyday life scenes as each character tries to wear the mask of an ordinary happy family.
5. A “Happy” Little Family
As is well known, Loid is not someone who is ready to be a full-fledged parent and is very inexperienced in this matter. But, for the sake of his mission as a spy, he too must be a good father to Anya.
At first, he thought that the job was easy. But, in fact, he was overwhelmed by Anya. Moreover, the boy had the ability to read minds and became very attached to him. Once Loid and Anya become close, the introduction of Yor will add an element of betrayal. As husband and wife, Loid and Yor try to seduce each other as they pretend to be a worthy couple.
Among the slice-of-life elements, Spy x Family includes a number of action scenes. With Yor as an assassin, the series includes a number of intense and brutal combat scenes. Loid also has a number of fight scenes that make you nervous.
The tension between the characters in this series is also very interesting. Loid and Yor turn out to be enemies in a blanket, even though they are husband and wife. Loid’s mission is to gather intel about the president of the country’s National Unity Party. Meanwhile, Yor is an assassin working for the government. He is tasked with eliminating threats to national security. Like a ticking time bomb, I don’t know how long this fake family can stay together.
