While the second season of the anime is airing, the manga
written and illustrated by Tatsuya Endo, SPY x FAMILY,
continues to garner its popularity. Recently, the author paused between the
advancement of the plot to offer the chapter “Short Mission 11“, a short
chapter.
Generally these chapters tell short stories not related to the main plot and starring secondary characters from the franchise, but this new installment went back a long time to the past to show a story starring Anya Forger. In the short chapter, Anya asks Loid to have a plaque with her name on the door of her room, but she writes it as “ ANIA “.
Loid informs him that this is the wrong way to write his name, so the plate is changed to “ANYA”, and The chapter closes with the little girl thinking about her own name.
But that's not all, Tatsuya Endo himself included a promotional image of the manga starring Anya Forger herself, who is holding her stuffed animal of a chimera before what appear to be the doors of the orphanage where Loid found her.
It was certainly a surprise for SPY x FAMILY fans,
especially since it seems that this chapter will serve to introduce a
new story arc that will be starring Anya Forger. What's coming for the
manga? Fans began to debate about it:
- «Get
ready, the sad feelings are coming».
- «I
wonder how Loid and Yor will react when they find out the truth behind
Anya».
- «His
eyes looked dull when he wrote ANIA, but they regained their color when he
realized that he is now ANYA. I'm not ready for what's coming, I'm sure
Bond will also play a key role.
- «I
think he didn't write ANIA, but AN1A, perhaps what he remembered it saying
on his lab plate. Maybe something like “Anomaly Number 1A”?».
- «If
you read the first chapter, the old man is calling her Anya and she was
escaping from his laboratory. Maybe she told her guy her name, and Anya
misheard it ».
- «The
lore is approaching. Everyone should hold on to their seats and prepare
for a tragic journey.”
- «This
is very sad. Could it be that ANIA was what was written on her cell when
he was still an object of experimentation? »
- «My
theory is that Anya had a code name in the lab, which was AN-1A, and that
she thought it was ANIA».
- «Loid
and Yor already had their arcs where their backgrounds were explained, it
was evident that Anya had to be next».
And that does not seem to be all, since the author himself Tatsuya Endo shared a special illustration through his official Twitter account also starring Anya Forger. In the past, SPY x FAMILY has begun its most important story arcs with special illustrations of this type, which would confirm that Anya Forger will be the protagonist.
It looks like we're about to find out how Anya's name was
chosen, and to uncover this story, we'll have to look into Anya's past. Of
course, SPY x FAMILY tells us has advanced something of the girl's dark
history. She is clearly telepathic and she was adopted several times from an
orphanage. As far as we know, Anya barely remembers her real family, but her
thoughts about that past of hers have seriously made her cry. The manga
also suggests that Anya was subjected to harsh scientific experiments that
likely caused her to become telepathic. And if all the fan theories
are correct, it seems that the program that created Anya's power was somehow
run by the Desmond family.
