Spy x Family, Vol. 2

Nothing wrong, just as advertised and as ment to be. (Any damage you see was done by me) I’m a collector, but I also read, and the series is great, and the this volume too. Nothing wrong 5/5.

Operation Strix is master spy Twilight’s covert operation to keep the peace between Westalis and Ostania by spying on the warmongering chairman of Ostania’s National Unity Party, Donovan Desmond. In order to do this, Twilight has been ordered to have a wife and family, so his “child” can attend the same prestigious school as Desmond’s. Twilight—now going by the name Loid Forger—has actually acquired a wife and child and the three of them have had their interview at the school. Now they are waiting the results of the interview… … only to find their daughter’s name missing from the list of those who have been accepted! Is the mission doomed already? But one of the housemasters takes the family aside and shows them a second list, a waiting list which has Anya’s name at the top. But Loid knows the chances of someone dropping out is slim to none, so he decides to help things along. Anya finds herself accepted, time for celebration! Loid’s co-worker, Scruffy, gives Anya the idea that her dad will probably get her anything she wants as a reward for getting in. But what she wants is something she’s seen on her favorite cartoon, Bondman. She wants to be rescued from a castle! Is that even possible? Anya is fitted for her school uniform, and Loid is covertly given the time of his next briefing, during which phase two is explained. Apparently the school has a program for outstanding students, who are known as Imperial Scholars. Donovan’s son Desmond is among this group. To become an Imperial Scholar, one must earn eight merits, or Stella Stars, through academic excellence or contributions to society. Eight Stella are required to do this. On the other hand, eight demerits, known as Tonitrus, will earn expulsion. Loid wonders if Anya can possibly become an Imperial Scholar. Anya’s first meeting with Desmond doesn’t go particularly well, even though she tries to become his friend. But he looks down on her because he considers her beneath him. On the plus side, she makes a friend of a little girl named Becky. But when Desmond is mean to Becky, Anya automatically responds. Is the mission doomed from the start? Can Loid improve her academic skills enough for her to earn the required Stella? Yor’s brother, Yuri, accidentally learns that his sister has gotten married, a fact she forgot to mention to him. But unbeknownst to her, York has his own secrets. Thanks to a shortage of personnel, Loid is given side jobs to do, which is why the family ends up at the aquarium. I have to admit I fell in love with this series from the beginning, from the moment I saw the cover of the first volume. Reading that and then the second book has only reinforced my love of Spy x Family. The situations are hilarious, with each member of the family unaware of the secrets of the others (except for Anya, who reads minds). Scruffy is a great comedic foil. Watching the Forger family interact, I just know they will end up as a real family by the end of the series. They are a perfect fit for one another. Anya knows she can read minds and get the answers to anything, but the trick is to read the right mind, and sometimes she doesn’t succeed in that. Yor is a very protective mama, and she is hard-core tough. No damsel in distress here. Loid may appear cold on the outside, and he is very methodical in everything he does, but inside lies a heart of pure gold, as well as a true master of disguise. I can’t say enough good things about this series. The artwork is awesome, Loid is handsome, it’s filled with fun, action, and humor. What more could you ask for? Looking forward to the next book.

I enjoyed reading Spy x Family and I can't wait to have the rest of the manga collection, as well the anime series.

I love manga such as Naruto and My Hero Academia. For people saying the book is backwards, it shows instructions in the Wrong Way page. This is rated T+ for Older Teen, but my age rating is 11+. The book is perfect and cool as heck. Read this book please!!!

Great book full of action

This series is so fun to read or watch. I’m so happy these were translated into English. For me, they are a welcome relief from American formula series tv shows, and something completely different I can really be like a kid with!

I feel as if this volume was somewhat better than the first volume of the series. I was going to drop the series after the first volume because while it had an interesting premise, the execution of the story was rather bland. I am unsure if this is because the humor doesn't fully translate over from Japanese to English or some other reason but the pacing and humor felt kind of flat in the first volume. I think the second volume is an improvement for story pacing and the humor translates better in my opinion for this volume.

great shape

Muito bom. Entrega rápida

Chegou tudo certo

漫画の内容はよかったです。 梱包に問題があります。 雨の日に受け取りました。 本は、ビニールに包まれることなく、段ボール材の封筒に入っており、本が濡れていました。 梱包材の見直しをお願いします。

My granddaughter loves these books she is 13 and specifically ask me if I would buy them for her.

Was surprised because it came in perfect shape!
