Hemlock the Lonely
Chapter 117 of Spy x Family is here!
Holy cow, Hemlock's such a loser. I love him. I hope he's able to lock in and get back to business in the next few chapters, but I can't see it happening after what Yor did to him.

AHHHHH!!! As always, the illustrations are all so adorable. It's also really cool that they're getting into adapting manga material. I better see at least one of the Desmonds in the next books.
Spy x Family workbook scans - part 4
After making scans of the three SxF workbooks that were released last year, I was surprised to find out that more were being made 😀 Two of them just came out (for teaching English), with a third releasing next month. Like the previous books, these include a ton of adorable chibi art of the SxF characters, some repeat illustrations I already scanned from the previous books, but plenty of new ones too! Here are scans of my favorites:

Always love all the wholesome Forger art~ Again, the books are made for teaching English to kids, hence the (sometimes awkward) English sentences accompanying the images 😅


I couldn't help but snicker at this next one. The simplified English just makes it even more unintentionally funny 😂 Poor Yor.




A reference to the cruise arc! (something the little kids reading this book probably shouldn't watch, lol)



Reference to the tennis arc!

Tiny running Yor - look at her go ❤️

These two images were kinda random - Anya and Yor helping a tourist? And Loid eating at a cafe by himself.

Love Loid's face here! Not sure why they translated dalcs to "darks" though.

Omg, Becky 🤣 Again, the stiff, simple English makes it even funnier.


The artist captured Anya and Damian's expressions in chibi form very well.


Was so happy to see a Twiyor drawing! But I don't think "shy" is the word I'd use here 😂

Some Damianya too.

What was most surprising to me about these two new books is the amount of references to manga-only chapters. The artist even made sure to have them wearing the right outfits! They're definitely a SxF manga fan, lol. I can't believe I have to spoiler-tag this post 😅 The manga-only images are...
The Eden gala (this is such an adorable drawing!)

Yor holding all the boxes at the charity bizarre. She even has the armband!

Young Martha doing ballet (like the cruise arc, her arc is definitely not for the little kids who will read this book, lol)

Yor and Anya helping Sigmund.

And Sylvia with Aaron.

Fiona finally makes an appearance in one of these books! Playing a flute...kinda random, but why not.

And lastly, some cute Anya, Becky, and Damian.

Like I mentioned, there's going to be one more book released next month, which I'm also planning to buy and scan. So stay tuned~

SPY x FAMILY's Initial Plot
As previously mentioned in my last post, I found a magazine from 2020 featuring a segment with Endo discussing Spy x Family. In my last post, I shared the drafts of the volume covers, but now I want to dive into the really interesting bit here (that I've found for now lol) that is the manga's initial plot.
Spoilers for the manga ahead, as I'll discuss some of those here.

There are many things one can see when comparing it to the manga's current story, but keep in mind that this is merely an initial version of the story, and some things that are written here may not be indicative of what's to possibly come to the future of the story, but is still good discussion nevertheless to see what could have been.
This story has three parts, let's begin with the first:
So we can already see here that "A" aka Loid is a lot different in this version compared to what we have now. He retains his womanizing skills but is not a very good spy. Which is an interesting thing to do, but I just kind of think of Daybreak when I hear "not a good spy" lol. Though I got no idea if Daybreak has any charming skills in the SxF world lol. In any case, I think it would have been interesting to see how a less-skilled version of Loid would solve the conflicts that the current Loid has faced so far.
Another part is how this version Operation Strix (which more or less has the same goal) and the formation of the Forger Family was going to be handled. As this version of Loid was unfit to take on the mission, it was instead going to be assigned to another agent with an actual family. But because of Loid wanting to take credit for the mission, he decides to create his own family. I think seeing Loid acting more selfishly like this is very fascinating, as it's something I can't really see current Loid doing.
Also, Endo having Loid start creating the family by finding a wife first is an interesting choice, but I can see why he went for the child in the current version. It's a much stronger start.
Now we move on to the second part:
"B" aka Yor is very interesting to compare to her current version. Her reason for becoming an assassin is very different here, with Yor on a revenge quest to find the person who killed her family, which is part of the reason why she decides to stick with Loid. But aspects like her secretly desiring a normal life and falling for Loid during their first meeting are the same (though the idea of Loid immediately flirting with her is very funny). There is also Yor working as an office lady, which seems pretty similar to her city hall job. I remember Endo saying in the EYES ONLY fanbook that she was originally a janitor, perhaps this script was written after he scrapped that idea?
As a side note, knowing that Yuri's character was simply going to be just "Yor's brother" before Endo combined him with the SSS officer hunting Twilight by the time he got to chapter 10, I wonder how he would have played into this version of the story.
And for the third and final part:
To start, it seems like Endo always intended to set this story in a post-war era. He may have already mentioned it before in other media, but I can't remember, someone please remind me 😂
As for "C" aka Anya, there's a lot going on here. Usually we don't get a lot of Anya's backstory, so getting this draft version is really cool to see. In the current story, we never know what the lab is and how exactly Anya managed to escape it, but this version explains that she is a government experiment (which at this point I'm pretty sure we all think this lol) and escaped the lab with her telepathy. Reading how the orphanage she stays at afterward feels pretty similar to the condition we see it in chapter 1, but I imagine that's why Endo had some ideas to draw her as sickly at the start. Also interesting to note that she instinctively knew that it was a good place to hide from the government. For however old she's supposed to be, she's a pretty clever girl.
Anya also missing her parents seems to be an aspect of her character that remains in the current version of the story, though it's more about her mother than both of her parents.
Later, when Loid comes to the orphanage to adopt, pretty much the same scenes play out except that Anya hears the name of her parents in Loid's mind (or Yor's, seems like there was a possibility of her being there with him), which motivates her to get adopted by him, thus completing this pseudo family.
It's interesting that this version of Anya remembers her parents' names while our current Anya doesn't seem to at all (as far as we know). Makes me wonder if this version of Anya was slightly older, perhaps being an actual 6-year-old's age if the school admission plotline was a thing during the writing of this plot.
Endo has also stated in the EYES ONLY fanbook that Anya was originally going to have some sort of superpowers, and seeing the combination of telepathy and a little bit of telekinesis is wild. I wonder if Endo will ever revisit telekinesis and give it to Anya later down the line, but I'm not sure if I'd like that.
It also seems like Loid would have been slightly aware of Anya's abilities, but brushed it aside.
Regarding the final line of the plot: "C"'s target is a lieutenant general. It's a simple line, but there's nothing we can go off from here I think. But knowing that this version of the story states that Anya's experiments were headed by the government, I can imagine her remembering a particular figurehead from there, that being this lieutenant general.
All in all, I really enjoyed having to translate, read, and share this draft version of the story! Getting to see Endo-sensei's older versions of the characters we know as the Forger Family w
as super cool to see! The next post related to this will hopefully be the last, the entire 6 page interview with Endo-sensei, but I promise to deliver! Thank you for your patience, and I hope to see you guys next post!

I'M BACK FOR MORE SXF CONTENT!
To preface, a month ago, I learned about an interview with Tatsuya Endo on Spy x Family on a magazine that came out in 2020. Well, today I finally got it!
There were a lot of cool illustrations and drafts from the early days of Spy x Family that I don't think have reached a lot of the fans in the West due to this being a JP magazine.
The article is a whopping 8 pages! 6/8 of them is the actual interview, but there's so much text in here that it'll take me a while to translate the whole thing.
And before I forget, I present this Anya doodle by Endo for the interview.
I'll be gradually sharing my first impressions about the contents of this interview, but I'd like to dedicate this post to this particular section featuring the initial cover designs!
We'll start backwards with the one that stands out the most: Franky on Volume 4. This is just a speculation, but it seems like he was still planned to be the uncle at the time of this drawing. You can also see him sitting on an LC7 Swivel Chair, which is designed by the same person who designed the Grand Confort LC2 Petit Modèle armchair that we see Loid sitting on in Volume 1. And if Endo taught us anything about characters sitting on different chairs made by the same designer, they're pretty good friends.
In our current day, I think it's really funny that it took Franky four more volumes to finally get his own cover. God bless him.
Next is Yor on Volume 3, who, interestingly enough, is sitting on the sitting on a Heart Cone Chair, which is currently used by Fiona on the Volume 6 cover. Compared to the current version, Yor appears to have a more serene look, and the poses are quite similar. You can also see the aspect of blood stains on the floor remaining in the current version of Volume 3.
As for Anya on Volume 2, compared to the final version, she's dressed in her regular clothes rather than her Eden Academy uniform, and Mr. Chimera is seated at her right instead of her left. The pose is also different too, with Anya sitting with spread legs with her hands in front of her.
Also, it was stated by Endo before in the Eyes Only fanbook that the colors on the Marshmallow Sofa in Volume 2 are an original addition, so it's interesting to see the actual black and white colors used in this draft.
And last but not least, we have Loid. I saved him for last since his cover had a lot of versions that I think are worth looking at.
A lot of things are pretty similar here, with Loid sitting on a Grand Confort LC2 Petit Modèle armchair with a gun in his right hand (the pic quality doesn't show it, but trust me, he is) while staring forward. As for differences, Loid starts off in a pose with open legs while holding a mask in his left hand. Also, something that should be mentioned is that the detail of the characters hiding items under their chair seems to be absent.
Below is the process of how Endo-sensei got to Volume 1's final design. The first draft had Loid crossing his legs while holding his face with his hand. In the second, he's spreading his legs and holding a hat this time. You can also see the bullet casings at his feet. Maybe a prelude to the "under the chair" aspects of the volume covers? According to the captions, Endo drew these drafts on Clip Studio Paint. These drafts got rejected and we end up getting Loid in his iconic pose, which was developed into what we see now.
can't believe we lost manspreading Loid but oh well
As for the bottom half, these are other considered designs during the draft. The first and third covers look pretty plain and generic, but the second one is pretty reminiscent of the Forger's family portrait while the fourth reminds me of this extra page from Volume 4. But I can see why these designs were scrapped by Endo. Though I can see the second cover getting a cover near the end of the manga in the future, or something like that.
Overall, these images were really interesting to look at! I love looking at the drafts of Spy x Family and seeing where things could have gone. Though I'm pretty bugged that this magazine came out 5 years ago and I'm only learning about it now.
The next post will be about Endo's initial plot for Spy x Family! Look forward to it!

"In our younger days, I suppose."
I really enjoyed today's Short Mission, which gave us more of Matthew and his perspective during the Cruise Adventure Arc! Though I admit that I am a little worried for him now that we have more reasons to care about him and his wife. Please spare him and keep him happy, Endo.

Spy x Family miscellaneous collab scans - part 12
Here's the last batch of scans from the SxF Jump Festa merch I bought - a 5-piece set of bromide cards, featuring the Forgers baking 🍰





Also wanted to mention, for those of you who remember the SxF workbooks I made scans of last year, new ones are going to be released this year too 😃 Two are coming out on May 26th and another in early July. Of course I'm planning to get them and make scans! I love the chibi artwork, plus they're great supplements my Japanese studies. Hopefully these workbooks will have a lot of new art and won't rehash too much of the old ones.

So Mangadex took my scan down...
Sad as it may be, I still have the pages lol, so I'm happy that it's still here! I've also updated the pages a bit to make it a bit cleaner/nicer, so I hope you enjoy as always!
Spy x Family Preview Manga Translated
Hey everyone! For quite some time, I've been aware of the preview manga for Spy x Family, which was published in Weekly Shonen Jump (WSJ) back during its debut.
From what I know, the one that has been available for a long time was the scanlation taken from a Korean site. Not discrediting the work of the scanlator, but there were parts in there that seemed off to me. So just today, I looked for the original preview manga online and happened to find it on a Japanese blog. And so, I've taken the liberty of translating this. I've also uploaded this to Mangadex and am waiting for it to get published. But for now, you can read the pages here. Enjoy reading!

Happy Mother's Day! I based this visual off the scene with Yor and Anya in the fields in the opening "SOUVENIR," it's just so pretty to look at. I'm still working on improving, as I had some trouble with the lighting of the scene, but I think in the end it all worked out!
Also, the latest chapter for Spy x Family just came out today! It was pretty entertaining, I might make another post with my thoughts on it later.

the new Spy x Family chapter was released yesterday! it was a pretty busy day for me and other wiki editors for having to update all the new things this chapter revealed, but it also inspired me to draw some more! it also helps that I happen to have a lot more free time now. for the longest time, I've always had the impression that Shopkeeper's hair wasn't actually his hair, but it appears I've been proven wrong. To save face for myself, I've drawn him with silky and shiny hair like in chapter 87 hehe.

My submission for the SxF Cover Collab 2025!
I took part in the annual #sxfcovercollab for the SPY x FAMILY 6th Anniversary! I redrew the cover of Volume 14. The image of a young Henry after his arrest really struck at me, so I wanted to capture his woes. I was pushing this one real close, but I enjoyed it! Big thanks to @gijipaw for organizing this 🙇♂️

HAPPY 6TH ANNIVERSARY SPY x FAMILY!
I've returned from my college hiatus for this

I'm also supposed to get another 6th anniversary work and a commission completed, I'll get to them soon 🙇♂️
It's now been six years of my favorite ongoing story! It's felt like forever since I first picked it up back in its early days. I'm glad it's still going strong, and I'm looking forward to even more anniversaries!
