Editor’s Note: There will be spoilers for Spy x Family Special Mission 11 below.
In Spy x Family Special Mission 11, Anya is watching television and sees a door with a hanging nameplate on it. She asks Loid if she can have a nameplate with her own name on it. Loid agrees with a simple “Sure. Why not?” as his response. Anya then attempts to carve her own nameplate, to which she struggles and says she can’t do it right. Yor, who has been watching Anya work on the carving, asks Anya if she can carve it for her because she is “good with blades.”
The finished nameplate is shown with Anya’s name spelled as “Ania.” Some time passes, and Loid happens to see the nameplate. While Anya is busy drawing something, Loid brings up the misspelling. He spells her name out as “A-N-Y-A.” Anya thinks it over and is surprised when she realizes her name is spelled wrong.
A new nameplate with the correct spelling of “Anya” is shown on her door. Anya is lying in bed, holding Director Chimera in her arms. As Anya stares at the ceiling in her bed, she says her name out loud. The next chapter of Spy x Family will be released on December 10, 2023. The manga is available through the Viz Media website and Manga Plus.
The anime adaptation is also available on Crunchyroll, which will also distribute the movie Spy x Family Code: White in 2024.
