Damian & Anya Are a Different Yet Important Romance in Spy x Family
A Sweet Bond More Entertaining Than Loid & Yor
Spy x Familychapter #104 features the latest reference to Damian’s apparent crush on Anya, and with his butler, Jeeves, demonstrating his awareness of what he deems visible in plain sight. Referring to the end-of-term party and how much effort Damian put into it, Jeeves teases his young master for obsessing over his outfit and dancing with the girl, but Jeeves does not initiate this. Damian brings the topic up after he asks if Jeeves is telling his mother, Melinda, about his matters.Damian brings up “the Forger girl” unprompted, showing she’s always on his mind.
Anya and Damian are both six years old, sothis connection hardly means a future together is a given, but their common points extend beyond their abilities to share a dance. This includes Damian and Anya having dorky tendencies, such as Damian’s “King of Antiquity” moment mirroring Anya’s flights of fancy like her “Starlight Anya” moment from chapter #17 (episode #11) or when she draws facial hair on her face as a bizarre studying ritual in chapter #92. While Damian is stubborn and Anya lacks a degree of refinement, their dynamic is hilarious and heartwarming inSpy x Family.
