Momma’s Turn to Kick Butt

Spy X Family vol 8 by Tatsuya Endo

by Leave a Comment

Manga parents are usually either absent or flat stereotypes; is some ways Loid and Yor’s relationship in Spy X Family goes that way; they are not absent parents to Anya, but they do play into the “I think I like you but I can’t possibly say that out loud” trope. Their marriage was faked because Yor needed a man in her life to draw attention away from herself (she’s an assassin) and Loid needed a wife to complete his fake family that he needs for […]

CBR14 Bingo: “Font” – I love all the different fonts used for sound effects in comics. Spy x Family is written and drawn by Tatsuya Endo.  It’s the story of an elite spy, known only by his handle, Twilight.  He is an agent for an organization in Westalis and master of disguise.  The agency has learned that a far-right group in the country on their Eastern border, Ostania, is wanting to start a war with Westalis.  Twilight is dispatched to discover what the East is […]

When the only person who knows all the secrets is six

Bingo 13: Self Care I’m pretty sure I’ve mentioned in previous reviews that I tend to turn to manga and comics for comfort reading. One of my current favorite series is Spy X Family, in which a husband, wife, and daughter are gathered and have to present an ideal picture to the world, but things can get awkward at home since everyone has a major secret: Dad is a spy, Mom’s an assassin, Bond the dog who gets premonitions of the future, and daughter is […]

Fun with Family Secrets

Spy x Family vol 4 by Tatsuya Endo

So far in Spy X Family, the Forger family consists of dad Loid (real identity: master spy Twilight), mom Yor (real identity master assassin Thorn Princess), and daughter Anya (a telepath). None of them knows the others’ secrets, except for Anya, except that she’s about 6 and thus misunderstands a lot of what she catches her adoptive parents thinking. Loid and Yor marry sort of out of convenience; he needs a family for a mission (she doesn’t know that) and she needs a family to […]

Spy, Assassin, Telepath, Family?

Spy X Family, vol. 1 by Tatsuya Endo

What happens when a spy needs to assemble a family unit for a mission, and the child he adopts and lady he marries are respectively a telepath and assassin, except none of them quite know what the rest of them are? A lot of fun is what. I saw a teaser excerpt of Spy X Family in a magazine, and I guess it worked since I bought the first volume about as soon as it was out. Twilight is a master spy, unfeeling and professional, […]
