Spy x Family, Vol. 8: Volume 8

Product Information

The addition of Anya, an esper who’s capable of reading others’ thoughts, is one of the sweetest gestures of the plot. The dynamics between Anya and Twilight have always been at the forefront. Yor is a bd btch and I really loved her mental development in this volume. Yor is a protector. We see that with Yuri. But now that Yuri is successful, Yor has found a new passion in keeping Anya safe and impressing Loid with her domesticity. It’s hilarious and so heart warming. Yor is assigned to be bodyguard for a mafia family on a cruise ship by the secret organization Garden. But with Loid and Anya also on board thanks to a giveaway they won, Yor is starting to have doubts about her secret life as an assassin… Violence: LOTS of brutal fighting with weapons and hand to hand with LOTS of spewing blood (rated R); several men get broken bones from various characters (on and off screen); LOTS of people die and there are many bodies that are thrown into the sea; characters are shot and shot at; heads are stabbed with knives (rated R); a man is stabbed by his comrades; a punch to the head; injuries and blood (rated R)

Loid and Anya’s bond in Spy x Family Manga Anya and Loid in spy x family chapter 45, snapped from Viz This is the point that I am trying to make here. Spy x Family Manga will eventually have to head towards a point where both the protagonist couple come clean. This is how a story like this should head off into. Despite the gory action and killing sequences, Spy x Family its core is still a wholesome story about a pretentious act turned into reality. The fake family meant for a mission should end up making all three involved closer than they intended to. The manga volume 8 has done an amazing job in setting the story toward that path. The majority of Spy x Family has more or less focused primarily on codename “Twilight” Loid Forger and his beloved adopted child, Anya. Yor for the most part has been underutilized. It’s not that she’s been completely off focus. It’s just that in contention with the rest of the main cast, she’s been slightly on the edge of the stage. Their journey is anywhere outside Berlint and the client who needs the service is a woman with a family of her own. The focus has been on Yor which naturally takes the time away from Anya and Loid, but not in a way that hurts.SPY x FAMILY: Family Portrait • SPY x FAMILY Official Fanbook: EYES ONLY • SPY x FAMILY: Operation Coloring -FAMILY- • SPY x FAMILY Workbook: Anya's First English But the oceanic voyage on the cruise ship is just what author Tetsuya Endo needed to pull off, and so he did. The primary development in the recent Volume 8 happened in the form of the Thorn Princess redeeming her initial priorities about her family. Yor’s Development was underwhelmed as the plot focused on Anya and Loid Yor Forger, via spyxfamily.fandom.com The woman client (going by alias Shaty) that Yor is tasked with guarding has a husband and a child. Upon seeing the client react with her family, Yor gets a few doubts of her own. The client brushes Yor off, saying that it must be difficult not knowing what a real family feels like. Yor is unable to properly say anything, obviously. But this entire exchange does leave her stranded. Yor seems to be reconsidering what Loid and Anya mean in her life. Concluding I bought one of those vacuum room cleaners so I wouldn't have to spend so much time cleaning. But an entire month has passed and I still haven't found the energy to take it out of the box. Master spy Twilight is unparalleled when it comes to going undercover on dangerous missions for the betterment of the world. But when he receives the ultimate assignment—to get married and have a kid—he may finally be in over his head!

The agency that Yor works under has gotten the job of safeguarding a particular crime family. This crime family has gone through certain restructuring to get under the hood, lay low but start anew.SPY x FAMILY (anime) • Musical SPY x FAMILY • Manga Novelization 1 • Manga Novelization 2 • Manga Novelization 3

What really pings you is that in the recent manga chapters, Anya has been pretty afraid of being left behind. I mean given that she can read both her parents’ thoughts, she knows she isn’t in for the longest ride. I adore Loid in this volume. He’s trying so hard and it’s so sweet. I love that he considers being a good dad to Anya as part of his mission. Yor’s on assignment and finds herself up against a gang of assassins on board a luxury cruiser. Meanwhile, Loid and Anya each discover that bombs have been planted throughout the ship! Will their best efforts be enough to save the vessel?Of course, Anya has no such motivation, she merely wants to be loved . And chapter by chapter Loid seems to care more and more for his adopted daughter. Given that much focus was given to Yor this time around, expect the story to unravel towards revelations soon. But don’t expect the revelation to happen anytime soon, S py x Family Manga is definitely in for a ride. Spy x Family Anime is all set to return for a season 2 this Fall 2022, October. Read more of that here. After getting it on release day, I’ve saved this volume for 3 & 1/2 months for that perfect rainy day. Because Spy x Family never disappoints.
